    We recently had our 50th high school class reunion at Bella Maria's Event Center. Thanks to Taylor, Teddy and their excellent staff the night was a total success. The food was delicious, service was great and atmosphere was electric. The ballroom made the perfect spot for this momentous celebration. So happy we chose Bella Maria's for our reunion.
