Galuppi's Reviews

We chose Galuppi's for our wedding because we wanted a great outdoor space for our ceremony and cocktail hour, indoor space for reception and all at a great price. We had no idea how beautifully everything would be executed, how accomodating Debra and Melanie would be, how good the food turned out, and how our guests are still talking about how great our wedding was 3 months later. The entire staff was so friendly and made sure everyone was fed, and always had a drink in their hands. I highly recommend their packages, it truly makes it all inclusive, and the only changes we made was in adding hours with the vendors, which were all also so fantastic to work with. HIGHY recommend this venue!

We chose Galuppi’s once we realized how close it was to a lot of our first memories. However, the packages are the best quality that included the essentials for us. We weren’t looking for an 8 hour venue with a bunch of other amenities. We really wanted an awesome place to host a ceremony and reception, but most of all, have a great party for less than 100 people. They also were very accommodating with any needed updates, and so helpful once the day of came. We loved Galuppi’s! The only thing is be weary with your music volume for earlier timed functions, we were asked to lower our music a few times during our reception.

We just had our wedding at Galuppi's over the weekend. The entire staff was amazing. Everyone was super attentive and caring about our needs. Everyone had such nice things to say about the catering staff, food and drinks! Our wedding was amazing!

Wow, this was an AMAZING venue that went above and beyond for my husband and me! We had another venue cancel a month before our wedding date and they fit us in and made it the most beautiful affair possible. It looked like Hawaii outside with the lights, water, and beautiful setup. Couldn't be happier and I'm so excited to go celebrate at the restaurant on important anniversaries and just for fun.

My husband and I had our wedding at Galuppis on 2/8/20 and everything was absolutely amazing. We spent a year planning and from day one everyone at Galuppi’s was so incredibly helpful and wonderful every step of the way. They made everything very low stress and simple for u and as far as weddings go in South Florida, it was very affordable. When we initially met with Diane she was so laid back and accommodating. We told her what we wanted, what we didn’t, and how much we could spend. She told us what the best package would be but then customized it further to fit our needs. For example, colored sashes for the chairs is included in the package but the ceiling treatment is not, so when I told Diane that I do not like/want chair sashes but the I thought the ceiling treatment was beautiful she was willing to swap them so we could get the ceiling treatment for no extra charge. When we went for our food tasting with Melanie, I was blown away. I am vegan and it was important to me to have a vegan wedding but I didn’t know if that would be possible for Galuppi’s to create an all vegan menu because they had never done it before. So my husband and I discussed and we figured a vegetarian menu might be a better option (although I was a little bummed). I told the staff as long as there was one vegan option that I could eat that that would be fine. However, the day we had our tasting, they surprised us and everything was fully vegan! I was shocked. The chef and the staff had done a lot of research and experimented with different plant based recipes. It meant so much to me that they took the time and energy to do that. Diane said to me “it’s YOUR wedding! You have to be able to eat the food!” On top of that, the food was absolutely delicious. It really exceeded my expectations. There were quesadillas, eggplant rollitini, Asian “chicken” and rice, “beef tips” and potatoes plus much more (usually if you ask a restaurant for a vegan option, you get a plate of lettuce.) Additionally, our package only included I believe 3 or 4 trays for the buffet but the staff told us that because we weren’t doing any meat or other animal products that we could just have everything from the tasting at the buffet! We were over joyed. When the big day finally came, Debbie was amazing. She was able to orchestrate and coordinate everything in a calm manner without getting anyone worked up (if you’ve even been in a wedding party before you know that the coordinator/planner is usually bossy and agitated and tends to stress everyone out.) The ceremony and reception space looked more beautiful than I ever could have imagined. The whole day was just absolutely perfect. When my husband and I initially looked at venues and everything was waayyy too expensive, we thought we were settling a little bit when we found galuppi’s (it was the only thing we could afford but it wasn’t as beautiful or elegant or fancy as some of the other venues.) But after this experience I can tell you we were completely wrong. We in no way settled. Our experience at Galuppi’s was so incredible I don’t think any of the other venues would have come close. Galuppis May be a little more modest than some other venues but that’s what we ended up loving about it! It felt more real, and down to earth, not so phony and snobby like some other venues. If you’re looking for a place to get married that won’t break the bank but will still be elegant and beautiful, and you want to work with a laid back and accommodating group of people, then look no further than Galuppi’s! We cannot thank them enough for all they did for us.

Gallupi’s has always been a hike away from home for us, so it was the obvious choice for our wedding venue. Gallupi’s didn’t disappoint. Everything from the planning, the price, the process, the food, the ceremony and the reception was more than perfect! I couldn’t be happier with the venue and everybody who works there and made my wedding the day the best day of my life!

Galuppi’s is a beautiful place to have your wedding. The outdoor area for the Ceremony is gorgeous and they have a wonderful room for the reception.

If you're looking for a beautiful setting and great food at an affordable price, Galuppi's delivers that and more. This was our second wedding, so we weren't looking to pay the high price that any hotel on the beach gets, even though I'm sure the amenities would have been nicer (i.e. the "bridal room" as one commented above, no valet parking, designated restrooms). The photographs came out great because it was such a beautiful setting. We used the photographer recommended by Debbie, Rosina of Flavio and Rosina's Studio because their work is displayed there and looked beautiful. Rosina was incredibly professional and patient with corralling our large family for shots. The staff could not have been more attentive to our every need. We did place a sign out front directing our guests where to enter so they wouldn't be going through the restaurant. Our head person for the reception was Cat. She brought a tray of bottled water to the bridal suite and made sure the reception room was set up beautifully. It was quite chilly and Cat asked if we wanted to move the cocktail hour inside. It was a great suggestion. The food was excellent, the bartender was quick and everything went off without a hitch. I could not have asked for a better wedding! I will also say that I used Art of Flowers and they did a beautiful job with the bouquets, table arrangements and decorating the ceremony arch. I also used DJ Cesar Calle and Jon Saxx for the ceremony. It really was beautiful and a very easy place to have a wedding. The day after, my guests called and raved about the wedding and most of them live out in West Broward so had never been there before and were quite surprised.

The banquet staff is extremely helpful and accommodating. We're planning our Florida destination wedding from Wisconsin and they have made sure we have all of our questions answered, assisted with local referrals for other services, and been quite pleasant.

Perfect venue! Food was great. It was absolutely beautiful and very reasonably priced.

We are extremely happy that we chose Galuppi's as our wedding venue. We loved the food as well as our guest. All the personnel was very friendly and professional. We really recommend this venue for your events.

We had our ceremony and reception at Galuppi's and have no complaints. The grounds are beautiful and well maintained. All of my guests kept commenting on how amazing the food was. It's far beyond your typical wedding food. Rachelle, the catering manager, bent over backwards for us. She made sure that the evening was perfect and it was. I can't say enough about this place. I would recommend it to any bride! It really is high quality without breaking the bank.

Our night was perfect thanks to Rachell!!! The food was great!!! The servers where awesome, they made sure that we had everything that we needed! My husband and I couldn't of asked for a more perfect night!!

Cecilia O'Brien, the catering coordinator, worked with me from start to finish regarding my wedding. She was patient, kind, flexible, approachable, and knowledgeable. Grant Galuppi was very accommodating and delivered as promised. The venue was beautiful, the food and service was great, and the overall costs was good. Thanks Galuppi's for making my wedding dream a reality and success.

The service was wonderful. Mrs. Cecelia was great, very helpful, always return our calls, had great advice.

We had our ceremony and reception at Galuppis in pompano beach, fl. What a great choice. The food was excellent just like the tasting, as well as cocktail hour horderves. There wasn't an extra charge for duet plates or colored sashes. Melanie and Rochelle were so nice and accommodating to our requests, along with all the other staff. This place definitely gives you the most bang for your buck with quality food linens, and alcohol. Our guests raved about the food, thought it was so beautiful and are still talking about it. You can't go wrong with this as your venue so give Melanie a call at galuppis!
With great appreciation sincerely,
Christopher and Bernadette

My husband and I had our wedding reception at Galuppi's on September 9th, 2012. It was THE BEST day of our lives! Cecelia and her team were amazing in getting everything ready for our guests, even a few that showed up without us knowing! From our initial tour, to deciding to book the venue, to working with planners and finally sharing our special day at Galuppi's, it was amazing. I highly recommend this venue for your special day!! Thank you Cecelia, and team! Courtney and Jared Wallace

We chose Galuppi's for our wedding reception, and were tremendously satisfied. Melanie was a huge help and was always there to answer our "pre-wedding" questions. The food was delicious!! My guest raved about it all night. The staff were so friendly and were willing to help with whatever they could. One of my favorite things is the beautiful view there is of the gold course. It added such a special touch and a beautiful backdrop for pictures. Amazing venue that I would recommend to anyone planning a special event!

The service provided at Galuppi's for our wedding was INCREDIBLE!!!! We had our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception there and I can't begin to RAVE about our experience with them!! From the first time we went there we fell in love with the venue. It's even more beautiful than the pictures show!! Cecilia is the best!!! She was super helpful and any questions or concerns I had she answered right away. The entire staff was on top of everything the day of!!The food was AMAZING thanks to their wonderful chef Aaron!!! All of our guests haven't stopped complimenting us on choosing Galuppi's for our wedding. I HIGHLY recommend this venue if you want your wedding to turn out PERFECT!!

I had both my wedding ceremony and reception at this location and everything came out amazing.. besides the ceremony starting a little late (due to bride being fashionably late) everything went according to plan and ran smoothly. Melanie was my coordinator for the venue and she did everything to make sure everything was on track and she worked with me on every detail especially when i would call her to ask her for help on a certain vendor. she works with you side by side and makes you feel comfortable. Overall im extremely happy that i had my wedding at this venue. i would definantly recommend this place to anyone who wants a beautiful wedding in a beautiful location.. you will not be sorry!!! =D

I had my reception at Galuppi's on August 31st. It was absolutely perfect, I couldn't be happier. From the food, to the service, the coordinators, etc. They genuinely treat you with care, not as if you are just a number. Aaron the chef was great and Wendy and Melanie were superb. Thanks again!

We had a buffet style wedding dinner and the food was incredible! The prime rib carving station was amazing and the salmon was to die for! The set up was absolutely beautiful and Debbie was always making sure we had everything exactly how I wanted before the wedding. My family and friends could not stop talking about how perfect our wedding venue was. For the amount of people we had, it was a great price and well worth every penny! Definitely will recommend this to friends and family!!

I was delighted to host our wedding at such a beautiful location. I wanted an outdoor ceremony and indoor reception, so and this fit perfectly. From the moment I signed the contract through the entire planning process (WE GOT MARRIED 11/03/2012) I was impressed at the exceptional customer service. Melanie was my coordinator and she is just amazing. She had great ideas, and all the answers. I highly recommend them whether you are doing your ceremony and reception, just reception, or any formal event for that matter!

They offer a great price for their wedding packages. Rachelle is great and easy to work with. The food is great and the staff are professional and very polite. My wedding was phenomenal.
