“This venue takes the stress out of the day and since you are already spending so much on your day, take the stress out of it by booking this Venue. The Waterfront Hotel crew was absolutely FANTASTIC and made our day perfect. Booking this venue saved us from having to rent a party bus-saving us at least 3,000 for this area. ALSO the day of coordinator was AMAZING and assisted with any questions I had. As if this place couldn't get any better, the venue had HALF of the decorations that I needed- a life saver when we live over 3 hours away. I have thought long and hard about a downfall for this venue-- I have yet to find one. Book now and don't think twice!”
