Beautiful venue

We had an absolutely beautiful Christmas ceremony and reception at the Columbia Club. The venue is gorgeous and the cost is much better than its competitors. The food was amazing at the tasting and came out exactly the same at the reception. The wedding manager did change in the middle of planning our wedding, but the transition was smooth and the quality of their service didn't change. We had our ceremony in the Grand Lobby and the reception in the Crystal Terrace and since it was Christmas-time you could see the lights from the tree on the circle twinkling in the window (they also let us use some of their Christmas decorations which was really nice and very cost-effective!). It was also very nice that the venue is a hotel - our guests could rent rooms right in the venue. We are so happy we chose the Columbia Club for our wedding. It was an epic day and night and exactly what we wanted for our wedding.

We had our wedding rehearsal dinner at Columbia Club at the Crystal Terrace and it was such a great decision. Hannah was amazing to work with to set up the event, she was on top of everything and made the whole process incredibly easy. The set up was perfect for our party and the food was delicious, everyone gave so many compliments. I fully recommend this venue!

The venue is perfect for elegant and classy weddings. I would recommend getting a jump on the wedding decisions early because there are many, but if you forget a small number the wedding coordinator is excellent at discussing and trouble-shooting those details.

We loved the venue, hotel, service, food, and for us it was by far the best value for money however we had a somewhat unique circumstance.
