The Braham Event Center was the perfect venue for our wedding. The communication with the staff leading up to the big day was fast, attentive, and respectful. They were able to accommodate some last minute changes we needed, which helped make our special day run smoothly. The banquet hall itself is absolutely beautiful - it's large and spacious with a blank canvas so you can bring your own decor in any style or color to make the venue unique. For the quality and beauty of the venue, we felt it was very fairly priced. The staff the day-of were equally amazing and attentive.
