I’ve been going to golden road for years since I live nearby but this past Friday we chose to hold our rehearsal dinner/welcome party there for our wedding and it was AMAZING. From booking months ago, the events staff was incredibly helpful with communication in planning the event. They have excellent packages to choose from based on your guest count and preferences. The buffet for the rehearsal dinner was delicious, fresh, and friendly to dietary restrictions and the snacks we served at the welcome party ie donuts and pretzel bites were also phenomenal. The staff were extremely friendly and attentive and all of our guests were raving about what a great night they had. THANK YOU GRB for a truly incredible and stress-free start to my wedding weekend.
