Jerry and his crew made out wedding day incredible! They helped run the whole day, they got the guests seated, kept everything on schedule, and ensured that Ben and I didn't have to worry about anything. When our flowergirl got stage-fright right before walking down the aisle, Jerry swooped in to save the day and helped her find her mom. We initially didn't plan to do a grand entrance into the reception, but Jerry and the DJ (Megan from Music that Moves) made one happen last-minute so our flower girl could have a second shot ar throwing her petals. You're not just getting a venue at Parkway, you're getting a whole team who will make your event run smoothly. If we ever do a vow renewal or anniversary party, we will be back!

Everything was just perfect. I strongly recommend this venue to anyone looking for something different from the banquet style wedding with a great elegant touch. 5 stars

We’ve only had the chance to shoot a couple of weddings at the Meyer Ballroom so far — but we already love it! The space is absolutely beautiful, with great natural light and clean, modern details that photograph so well. It’s one of those venues where everything just works visually, which makes our job so much easier. Even more than the space, the team at Paramount is amazing. Everyone we’ve worked with has been kind, organized, and clearly passionate about creating a great experience for couples and vendors alike. That kind of energy makes a huge difference on a wedding day! We’re definitely looking forward to working there more in the future, it’s always a good one to see on our schedule. – The Once Like a Spark Team

Food was delicious, catering staff was fantastic, bartenders were friendly. We received so many compliments from our guests about the venue, the food, the desserts, the decor. We were also very impressed with how flawlessly the day went, transitioning from ceremony, cocktail hour, to reception, everything went off without a single stressor.
