Frank, the owner, was AMAZING!! We met him a year before our wedding. The packages he offers are the most affordable and most practical we could find. He also works with you if you... need more flexibility with the payment plan. He is the most flexible owner I know and very approachable, always willing to answer any questions we may have. He genuinely cares about his customers. He would always tell me he wants to make sure everything goes well for me because he doesn’t want me (the bride) to be stressed. And he really did work with me and my husband up until the wedding day.
Our wedding was on September 8, 2023 and it was the BEST DAY EVER. I can honestly say that one of the reasons why we had an amazing day was because of Frank and Upland Events and Banquet Center. I don’t have the official photos from our wedding yet but will come back and add some as soon as we get them so I can also help other readers who are trying to decide. Reading reviews also helped me decide so I wanna do the same.
At first, we were worried that his venue might not have enough space for our wedding (250 guests). But I’m so glad we went ahead and booked them!! Everyone still had enough space to dance on the dance floor and we were able to do the grand entrance of our HUGE WEDDING PARTY just fine! By “HUGE” I mean 14 sets of sponsors and 14 sets of bridesmaids and groomsmen🤣 Everyone definitely had a blast at our wedding! His entire team was very helpful and attentive to our needs.
Also, the caterer, Martiniz Fresco Catering, that came with his package was amazing too! Their food was REALLY GOOD!! On the day of our wedding, I made sure I had a chance to eat because I enjoyed our food tasting so much. Although I only got to eat their mac and cheese and a little bit of tri-tip, I definitely enjoyed my dinner!! My husband finished his plate! 😂 We also received a lot of compliments from our guests saying they really liked the food. I was so happy to hear this because good food was one of mine and my husband’s priority. Rene, the day of coordinator, which is one of Frank’s preferred vendors, was also great. He definitely helped make our big day go smoothly. Victor, the bartender, was awesome. He was very kind and very helpful with any questions we had! The package also included our wedding cake from Somecrustbakery. The cake was really delicious!! Our cake had 4 layers and had different flavor for each layer. Our 5 year old daughter enjoyed the cake tasting and we picked the flavors that she enjoyed.
Thank you for everything, Frank!! We will continue to recommend them to our friends and family and we will use them again in our future events! If you are still unsure whether you want to book this venue, feel free to message me here if you have any questions. :) You will not be disappointed! Give them a call and ask for a tour!
