We got married at Loveland in March 2024 and are SO happy we did! They were the first venue we looked at and instantly fell in love but wanted to do our due diligence and look at one more to be sure. We checked out one more and that validated that we knew Loveland was the venue for us. Heather is a complete boss and does amazing work and her team is so so helpful. The venue itself is beautiful - we loved the privacy and all that it had to offer (the outdoor ceremony space and indoor reception area). The team cares about their couples and are there every step of the way. Also the fact that we could get an outside caterer and supply our own drinks saved us a good chunk . I’d recommend them 10000x times over!

The fact that people don’t know about this place blows me away. There is nowhere else to go where the owners will bring your nephew cool cars. Allow your guests to leave their vehicles on the parking lot for safety if need be, the communication, the ideas. If you are about to make an interesting wedding decision Philip will absolutely help guide you in the right direction. I know there are weddings there every weekend but the owners absolutely make you feel like your event is the only one that matters. Thank you Philip for helping our dreams to come true, and thanks for suggesting a Friday night wedding! Everyone thanked us for it!

From the moment we booked our wedding at The Franklin of Soulard, their communication was prompt, detailed, and quick to address any questions we had. The venue itself is truly beautiful and unique, with a huge dance floor that created a magical ambience for our special day. As first-time parents of the bride, The Franklin guided us through every step of the way, always ready to answer the smallest question. The food was delicious and plated perfectly, and the evening's schedule was flawless. While we knew there were many moving parts behind the scenes, all our guests saw was the professionalism and magic of the night. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect wedding venue.

When we were looking for a reception hall for our 10/10/20 wedding way back in 04/19 we chose Orlando’s. For the price it’s a great value. Then we did the food tasting and we felt great about our choice. The food was wonderful! Next came Covid...throughout the process Mike and Laurie made sure to listen to our concerns and they had a great sense of humor along the way. Our reception was the least stressful part of the whole day and if I could give them 6 stars I would!
