We had an amazing experience with our wedding reception venue! The food was absolutely delicious, and our guests couldn’t stop talking about it. The space was beautiful and spacious enough to comfortably accommodate all of our guests, making it perfect for our big day. The pricing was also very reasonable for everything that was included, which made it an even better choice for our wedding.
The staff was wonderful to work with. Everything went smoothly on our wedding day, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We would highly recommend this venue to any couple looking for a great space, delicious food, and an easy planning experience!

We worked with Michelle to plan the wedding reception of our dreams! She was so great to work with and made planning easy. She thought of every detail and gave advice when we struggled to decide. She was also very accommodating as we had to schedule tours and tastings outside of the designated window. We are so sad the wedding is over and look forward to the next time we get to attend an event at the LiUNA!

e sure all my wedding reception visions came true. They were so accommodating and even with my multiple, multiple detail changes, they were able to make sure everything was exactly as I wanted. It was a little nerve wrecking leaving all the setup in their hands, but I couldn’t believe my eyes when I walked into the room the night of our wedding. It was everything I dreamed and more. Michelle was very nice to collect our left over things afterwards and made sure it got returned to us. 10/10 would recommend LiUna for your wedding!

From the moment we booked, the coordinators were supportive, organized, and always available to answer our questions. They truly made the entire planning process stress-free and enjoyable.

s the time to get to know you and your partner. They offer tastings for free throughout the year. We were able to take our parents, siblings, and wedding coordinator to the tastings to help plan and taste the food! We had SO many compliments about our food at our wedding! So many people went back for seconds! They also provide so much so that you don't need to bring nearly as much when it comes to center pieces and table settings. They worked seamlessly with our outside vendors and wedding coordinator. I seriously cannot recommend this venue enough! Michelle, Molly, and Nancy are next level! I can't thank them enough!

s. Molly, our coordinator, was kind, attentive, and professional. We barely had lift a finger! Our decorations were gorgeous, and we used all of the LiUNA's items. Aside from our seating chart, guest book, and a neon sign, we didn't have to bring in or set up a single thing. Molly made us feel like the only couple she was working with. The monthly free tastings allowed us to try many different possible menu items (and, hello, who doesn't love multiple free dinners?!). The food was delicious. Our DJ, who was included in our package, did an excellent job. My husband and I really just wanted to throw a big party for our favorite people, and that was exactly what we got! However, you can really customize your reception with the LiUNA. Had we wanted to bring in our own centerpieces, decorations, etc., we totally could have. Finally, we felt like the price per head that we paid was extremely reasonable. I wish we could relive our reception over and over again. Thank you, LiUna staff!

Our experience with Liuna was excellent from the very beginning planning stages until the wedding evening. Nancy and Molly were outstanding and were able to make everything happen....
We can’t thank Molly enough for all she did leading up to the big day and her help continued all the way until we left that night. We knew everything was going to be taken care of with Molly in charge. After the wedding, we received so many compliments from wedding guests on how amazing the food was and how nice the venue was. We had a large guest list (211) and the space was perfect for our size party. The two buffet lines at dinner ensured everyone got fed quickly and we were on the dance floor quicker. The two bars were also a plus as there was never a line for a drink. The lighting in the room set the mood and made it a fun atmosphere along with the monogram on the wall behind the head table(really a cool touch!) I would recommend Liuna to anyone looking for the perfect wedding venue!

made us feel so cared for during this whole experience--from tastings to get a feel for what our perfect menu would be, to meeting all their preferred vendors, to viewing their decor/ being able to drop off what we had for decor and trusting that Molly would set it all up for us to make our visions come to life. We could not recommend LiUNA enough to all of our friends and family. We have heard the best reviews from our guests regarding LiUNA's food, staff, and how overall lovely the whole evening was. Book LiUNA for your event--we would choose them over and over again!!

It's just an awesome venue to work with. Everything was beautiful as well. And I did not have to worry about a thing. They are very affordable in the grand scheme of things. They have different packages available. we went with the deluxe, I believe. And we got everything. Food, DJ, minor decorations, an open bar, and more. That took a lot off my plate, and it was all included with no extra charge with the package I got.

nthly food tastings shortly after we had gotten engaged and immediately fell in love with the place. From the decor to the food (which we received SEVERAL compliments on at our reception)—it was everything we could have hoped and dreamed of. Nancy was our go-to gal for any and all questions, and she is an absolute sweetheart! She is such a genuine and personable person, which made our whole experience even more positive! Molly was phenomenal with getting all of our final details together leading up to our wedding and making sure the night went off without a hitch. These women are both masters at their craft—they’re the BEST!
Thank you LiUNA for helping make our wedding everything we could have hoped and dreamed of! It was a night we will never forget and it could not have been more perfect.

If you are looking to book an event center for a wedding reception, work event, etc., look no further than LiUNA.
Kip, Nancy, Molly, and the whole team at LiUNA Event Center were...
amazing to work with for our wedding reception. We chose the Premium Package which included the house DJ, Brock, who was awesome and easy to work with, the premium bar, the table decorations, table numbers, and so much more.
The food was excellent! We were able to attend LiUNA's monthly tastings so we could decide what menu we wanted at our reception. At every tasting, Molly, Nancy, and Kip were there to answer all of our questions. Our meetings with Molly, the event coordinator, before our reception were very helpful.
Because of the hard work of the LiUNA Team, they made our wedding reception perfect.

Consistently checking in and making sure things were going good! If I could do it over again I would pick LiUNA every time! We used their signs, cake stand, center pieces and rented the greenery backdrop from them as well. The whole process was so easy and smooth and so many things were included so it was nice to not have to worry about setting up things day of. Everything was taken care of for us! Venue was beautiful, food was great, staff was amazing. This is definitely the best reception venue!!

Liuna was absolutely amazing every step of the way. From the first time we toured the venue until the last step out of the door our wedding night, we were always taken care of and ...
treated as royalty. Molly was absolutely STELLAR, I honestly couldn’t brag about her enough. The moment I stepped foot into the venue she greeted us and asked what we needed, or if she could get us drinks. My train kept unbuttoning while I was dancing, Molly was right there to button it back up every time it fell. She took care of me like I was an actual princess. It really made my wedding day that much better having her there all night. I couldn’t recommend this place more! The food was absolutely DELICIOUS. I feel that most venues typically lack in this department, but Liuna again shines through. I had almost every guest tell my husband and I how amazing the food was! If you are thinking about booking Liuna for your big day, do it! You will NOT regret it!

We booked LiUNA for our recent wedding reception and oh my goodness this place is absolutely amazing! When we first looked into LiUNA, Nancy assisted with getting us booked for our...
first tasting to check it out. My new husband and I knew right away we wanted to book LiUNA for the reception because the tasting was setup beautifully, the food was delicious and all the staff were so kind, friendly and knowledgeable. Nancy was so helpful with any questions we had and getting the process started to officially get our reception date booked and continued helping with anything we needed after! So now fast forwarding to the weeks before and the actual wedding day, MOLLY WAS AN ABSOLUTE GODSEND! She helped us with getting the timeline setup for our big day, answered my many questions, and even let me bring all the reception items over days before the wedding so I wouldn’t have to stress about it the day of or before my wedding. Once we got to the reception Molly ensured everything was taken from the bus for us and put into a back room so we wouldn’t have to worry about it. She even went as far as to help me with my unruly hair in the bathroom!!! I could go on and on about how amazing everything was, but I probably don’t have enough character space to do so! To anyone contemplating whether to book LiUNA or not, absolutely do it! You will not regret it!!! P.S. you should also request Bob as your bartender, he was THE BEST!

Lastly, you can’t beat the value and service you get for the price! We are so glad we choose LiUNA!!

All of these components made for a fun-filled, worry-free, memorable evening. Our guests still compliment the venue and tell us how great the food, drinks and overall night was. If I had to do it all over again, there’s no doubt in my mind that we would choose LIUNA again!!

We loved that we got to go to multiple tastings (which we always packed and they help you really feel what it would be like on the night of). They are professional and kind.

hey were so understanding and helpful as we moved to a new date. As the planning continued, we met Molly who is the most amazing coordinator...EVER. Honestly, I could probably write a novel on how wonderful she is. There was zero stress on my wedding day and most of that is attributed to her! We knew we could trust her to make our reception perfect and she did just that. She helped us plan our event timeline from start to finish, offered help with last minute details and vendor phone calls the day before, and was present for the entire reception. We were so lucky to have her and cannot speak more highly of LiUNA as a whole.

eeded drinks she was on it! If I needed something, she was doing it for me! She was there to help set up and always asking if we needed anything! Molly was AMAZING! Now let’s talk about the venue itself! Spaceyyyy and so pretty! You can choose what lighting you want and all the little details!! If you are having a bigger wedding this is the space to be! Now the food and service! 1000/10, we received soooo many comments about our food and how amazing it was! Bartenders and staff picking up were phenomenal!! Always picking up things and the bartender kept the drinks flowing when we had a group that likes to drink! Thank you guys so much for everything and I HIGHLY recommend this venue for anyone looking to book!! Also it’s around amazing bars for after party and plenty of hotels!!

LiUNA was exactly what we were looking for when we started to plan our wedding. They were super patient with all our questions during the planning process and during the days just ...
prior to our wedding. They made the process of planning a 6 month wedding during a pandemic as smooth as can be. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better team of professionals to make our day the most amazing day ever. Nancy and Molly were and are so sweet, down to earth and personable!

I had the best experience at LiUNA! I was in need of a venue for a wedding reception in 7 weeks due to family illness. Nancy and Molly did an AMAZING job with accommodating us and...
making this day so special! We were able to bring in a live band and they sounded so great in the space. The chef does an amazing job! Many quests were raving on how delicious the food was and the large selections of choices. Also, we needed extra tables for our Italian cookie desserts and the serving staff went over and beyond to keep the tables full of our cookie trays as the guests were enjoying the cookies by the handful!
When planning a wedding in such a short time, I loved how LiUNA offered their "one stop shop" on amenities. It was so helpful and convenient! I highly recommend this venue!

Nancy and Molly made this portion of our day so easy. We were able to set up the day before, so there was no added stress of having to set up everything the day of. We were able to...
go to multiple tastings to ensure we picked the food we wanted, and the food was amazing! We opted for the in-house DJ addition, which allowed for the use of the extra speakers which helped with sound distribution. Everything about LiUNA was wonderful and we would recommend this venue 1,000 times to friends and family.

ding reception was just as important and special as it would have been had it occurred when it was originally supposed to. We were supposed to have our reception at LiUNA on December 31, 2020 - NYE. Instead, we postponed to September 25, 2021 and LiUNA helped us recreate New Year's Eve in such a special way! They worked with all our vendors seamlessly to make each and every perfect. The venue screamed NYE/PARTY when we walked in - just what we wanted! Our DJ was through LiUNA, Brad, and he was amazing! The dance floor was filled the entire night. The food was outstanding and we received many compliments. We were so happy with everything, and Molly made sure the entire night went off without a hitch. Our special night was postponed, but LiUNA helped make sure it wasn't any less special. We highly recommend this event center!

y in the world on my wedding day because Molly was on point the entire night. Our wedding party and guests were impressed with the entire set up of our wedding. It was so beautiful. We had both our ceremony and reception here and our guests have been calling us, expressing how much fun they had and how good the food was. I give this event center a 10.5 on a scale of 1-10. You will NOT be disappointed. If u want professional service, book the Liuna Event Center. If you want to have a fun, worry-free wedding, book the Liuna Event Center, if u want good food and attend fun tastings, book the Liuna Event Center, if u want your guests to be impressed by your wedding, book the Liuna Event Center. The DJ and food servers were even having a great time! My mother in law said she felt like she was at a million dollar wedding LOL, it literally felt like it. We need to figure out another event to have just so we can return. This was in fact the best day of my life and the Liuna Event Center played a major part with making sure our day was perfect. They truly became like family.

ssed about was the food and atmosphere. The food was literally the best food we have had. That broccoli was our favourite side option. All the food was so good. The hall was the perfect spot for the number of people we had. Lots of room. We loved the way they decorated the space. The DJ we had was named Brad and he was amazing and kept the party going all night. I've never seen so many people dance at a wedding before. Truly an unforgetable night and experience. Couldn't have asked for a better wedding venue. Thank you to Kip, Nancy, and Molly for helping us plan our special day. We would highly recommend Liuna Event Center to anyone planning a wedding!

I don't know if I will ever be able to truly capture in words how amazing it was to work with LiUNA for our June 5, 2021 wedding, but I will try. The team you get here is amazing. ...
I can't thank Molly, Nancy, and Kip enough for all the time and energy they put into their jobs. They truly go above and beyond the job description to make sure everything goes perfectly. Our wedding day certainly did! They were so accommodating through the entire wedding planning process. I would email about a question or concern and Nancy would respond day of to make sure I had peace of mind. The wedding day timeline could not have gone more smoothly thanks to Molly. She is a QUEEN of communication! The LiUNA was our reception spot from the beginning, but due to COVD, we had to switch our ceremony location. They immediately stepped up and let us add a ceremony to our package and made it so easy for us, it was almost like we had done that from the beginning. And can we talk about the FOOD? It was so delicious, we were getting texts from our friends and family the next day that it was the best food at a wedding they have every had! You also get so much bang for your buck! Weddings can be *expensive* but the LiUNA makes everything worth it between the service, the food, the bar, the DJ, the room set up... they do it all! We used their centerpieces and gold chargers with sandalwood napkins and everything just turned out amazing. I can't thank them enough for making this the best day of our lives and helping us start our marriage on the most wonderful note possible!

lly the food. Everyone told us it was the best wedding food they've ever had and I definitely agree! The servers and bartenders were quick. efficient, and friendly. The Reservations Specialist, Nancy, was so helpful all throughout planning and especially when we had to postpone due to COVID. She worked diligently to help us find a new date and get everything re-planned. The Event Coordinator, Molly, was so helpful the day before and the day of, ensuring that we had everything we needed when setting up and during the reception itself. As a bride, I had a LOT of questions, and both ladies always responded to me quickly and thoroughly. From the start of our planning back in 2018 to the wedding day in 2021, the staff at LiUNA were a pleasure to work with. I have nothing but great things to say about LiUNA. I HIGHLY recommend them!!
