I made the mistake of having my wedding reception here in 2007, mostly for the convenience of our guests not having to travel far from the airport. What a nightmare! Our banquet contact quit the week before our reception and no one even bothered to tell us! The day of our reception, they set the head table for 8 instead of 16. They put my champagne glasses on the cake table and our cake topper on the head table (backwards from what we wanted). One of our groomsmen didn't have a full place setting. I told them I was having someone come in to set up place cards and table numbers, but they did it anyways and lost one of the numbers. The minute I got there I was bombarded by the event manager with questions about seating because they messed up something they weren't even supposed to be doing. The internet didn't work in the banquet room consistently which kept throwing off our DJ. Our free night which came with booking the reception wasn't booked when my husband went to check-in, instead they had an unused reservation from the night before. Oh and they gave me a room for my bridesmaids and I to put our purses, etc. in, but it wasn't secure. At least three of us had credit cards and other items stolen from our purse during dinner. I can't prove it, but I truly feel it had to be a staff member.
Keep your banquets and receptions far away! They will ruin it!
