Meyer Ballroom staff and venue are great
My husband and I had a wonderful experience with Meyer Ballroom. The staff is incredibly kind, organized, and accommodating. On the day of, Lynsey Gallagher was our coordinator and she was calm, stayed on task, and had the most positive attitude. Beautiful places to take photos around the Ballroom as well. The overall planning process was also a breeze with MBR’s checklist and check-ins. Some guests had comments about valet and parking so ensure that you square that away beforehand.
Response from vendor•Feb 20, 2026Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience and for celebrating at Meyer Ballroom! It was truly a pleasure working with you both. I’m so glad you felt supported throughout the planning process and on your wedding day! That means the world to me. We appreciate your feedback regarding valet and parking as well. Guest experience is very important to us, and we’ll continue working to ensure expectations are clearly communicated in advance. Wishing you both a lifetime of 💞love and 😀happiness! ~Lynsey Gallagher 🥰Absolutely recommend!
The staff at Meyer Ballroom is amazing!! Morgan and Molly were always attentive and answered all our questions in detail and in a timely manner prior to the wedding. Jess did a great job coordinating our rehearsal and she, Molly, and Dan, were wonderful on the day of the wedding. They were so on top of things, they made the day stress-free and run smoothly. Everything was set up perfectly by their decorating assistants, and the room flip went great. Everyone played a huge part in making our wedding the best day of our lives! There are also so many beautiful spots to take photos near the venue. The ballroom and atrium are so spacious and the view is very pretty. We can’t recommend this venue enough!
Response from vendor•Oct 29, 2025Thank you so much for your kind review! I’m so glad our team could help make your day run smoothly and be everything you dreamed of! It was such a joy working with you and seeing your beautiful vision come together; the romantic décor you brought in made the space feel so warm and elegant. Wishing you both all the best in this exciting new chapter! –Molly & Paramount’s Meyer BallroomA dream venue!
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
