Definitely check out David L Baker for your reception if you're ballin' on a budget. They were able to fit our budget well within reason and had all the amenities that my, now, wife was looking for. They were great at communicating with us throughout and helped us plan this stressful, but joyous(!) time. Amber gave us the first walkthrough and Julia helped us in more detail afterwards. Julia did a great job coordinating with our wedding coordinator. IF anything terrible happened during the wedding... I definitely never found out! So good job to both of them I guess! Logistically, there's plenty of parking, plenty of wiggle room, multiple bathrooms, bar... What more does a reception need? Definitely give them a look!

We had our rehearsal dinner at Yakiya and couldn't have been happier with the experience. The management team were incredibly helpful and responsive throughout the planning process.. The venue itself feels high-end because it is a modern Japanese yakiniku restaurant serving wagyu beef and unique cocktails. Everything was impeccably clean, and the ample parking was a major convenience for our guests. The team even worked with us to create special signature cocktails that perfectly matched our tastes as a couple. We are so grateful to Yakiya for helping make our dinner with family and friends truly special.
