old orchard midori banquets

They put on a beautiful affair at a beautiful location. Unfortunately at this point they appeared to be short staffed and rushed at some times to move on.

We had our wedding here November 2018. It was very affordable, and turned out great. Bonnie helped us out a lot with everything. The only downside is the event has to end at midnight, not a minute later. We knew this in advance and didn't care, but I know some people prefer to have longer receptions.

Had a great experience here for our wedding reception. The staff members were helpful and friendly and treated us like family. The course is gorgeous for wedding portraits and the wedding package included many things that would otherwise be upgrades/additional charges elsewhere that we looked at similar venues. The venue was a little dated in some areas but was otherwise well kept and did not detract from our experience. The guests loved the food here, and we had beautiful lighting in the venue for some truly magical photos. Overall, a great value for the location, food, and service!

NIGHTMARE WEDDING BECAUSE OF VENUE STAFF!!! ***PROS (because it's a shorter list): - affordable - barbara is great - the only one I had a positive experience with. She was attentive and involved throughout the night. - built in uplighting - Christine helped with ceremony flow ***CONS: - Christine was rude, unorganized, not helpful, pushy, unprofessional - Tasting was rough - linen stained with red wine; we were never asked what we wanted to try rather just given three options Christine chose - Rehearsal was fine except Christine was pushing us out the door. - Christine raved about the bridge for pictures and encouraged us to use the golf course for a setting. Day of she was rude and told us we couldn't go to the bridge because we needed a golf cart. - Christine said we could bring beer/wine in for pictures. She put it behind the bar and yelled at us if we went to help ourselves. - Provided (6) glasses for a party of (10) for private champagne toast. Got angry when we asked for more glasses - changed the presentation of place cards; also out of alpha order. I was never notified. - charged for coat check. We had to ask 3+ times to charge to the final bill and not to our guess. - presentation of soup was poor - the cup was covered in dried soup - servers rarely go to your table to check on you - servers rude to guests & myself (the bride) - SERVERS DRANK FROM OUR WEDDING BAR INSIDE THE BALLROOM WITH OUR GUESTS PRESENT - server broke a glass and didn't properly clean it up - we had a lot of kids and people without shoes on - VENUE NEVER PUT OUR CAKE IN COOLER - IT SAT OUT FOR 10+ HOURS. We are lucky no one got sick. This also caused out CAKE TO COLLAPSE. Venue tried to fix themselves versus calling the bakery. The Venue REFUSED to provide compensation to the bakery or myself. - staff stole from bathroom baskets - legit cleaned them out - Christine said she collected all our belongings the day after for me - we were missing alot and i had to go back a second time - DO NOT TAKE HER WORD FOR ANYTHING. - We were OVERCHARGED per plated - i contracted a price which Christine broke. Ignored me when i brought it up. BEWARE THIS AWFUL VENUE. DO NOT BOOK YOUR EVENT HERE!!!! YOU WILL BE DISAPPOINTED. Tried to contact the owner who is also unresponsive. Wish i read the reviews prior to booking!
