    Windows is great, could be greater!

    As a May 2026 bride at Windows on the River, I want to note that I had a lovely day. I’m writing this in the hopes that some couples do not experience some mishaps that we did. 1. During our ceremony, in the Bridge View Room, staff could be heard loudly talking behind the room divider. So much so, family members in the front row (farthest from the room divider) could hear. 2. During cocktail hour, many guests ventured the entire way through the aquarium without seeing a single server with a passed appetizer. 3. The cake-cutting table was not set with two forks and a dessert plate. Additionally, our cake-cutting knife was still wrapped in the box, which was on the table, and still had the sticky note on it reading “for cake cutting.” We weren’t about to unwrap and unbox these in front of 300 guests. So, in front of our guests, we had to run to our sweetheart table, grab forks, run back to the cake table in the middle of the dance floor and grab bites. Not being able to have our traditional cake cutting with our special serving set was a bummer. 4. Obtaining parking for guests was difficult. The lot is not owned by Windows, though the companies work closely together. The staff at Windows had to constantly remind the team at the parking lot to even answer us as prospective customers. I hope the venue and the lot can establish a better communication system that benefits everyone. Simply put, these issues were disappointing for the amount of money paid. That being said, many things were also wonderful! The space was gorgeous for photos and dancing, the dinner was delicious, the bartenders were fabulous, the aquarium was a hit, and Kathy was always quick to respond. I write this in good faith hoping that the venue sees this and does not allow situations like this to happen with other couples and their families. We still had a beautiful day and don’t regret booking with the venue, but guest experience could be improved.
