We hosted a Hindu wedding ceremony and reception at the Magnolia. I wish it were possible to give more than 5 stars because our experience was incredible. Emily, the event manager, was kind, communicative, extremely accommodating (as Indian weddings can be a lot), and it was an absolute pleasure to work with her and team for our wedding. The presidential suite was stellar for getting ready photos, and the ballroom and rooftop provided perfect backdrops for photos. The staff worked with our vendors seamlessly. Couldn't recommend more!

We absolutely LOVED working with Grbic Events. Lejla (the wedding coordinator) was so fabulous and helped the day run as smoothly as possible. She went above and beyond to make sure my wedding vision came fruition. The night of the event she was out of the floor and her team was constantly checking in and making sure everyone had what they needed. The team was so great to work with and I would 10/10 recommend this event space for any event. The event space is gorgeous and the outdoor area really helps accommodate for large weddings. We had about 300 people and it never felt too full or crowded. We got so many compliments on the food. The food was delicious and everyone loved that it was a little different than typical wedding food. This event space is spectacular and I would highly recommend it to any bride!

My husband and I could not have asked for a better experience in planning our wedding reception. I don't even know where to begin. Nancy made the booking process absolutely seamless. 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!

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!
