Villa Bar & Banquet will be an absolutely amazing wedding reception venue for our special day. We have great memories when it was a restaurant and of the lounge downstairs. The downstairs lounge has been completely updated as well. Wow! From our first interactions, the sales manager Christen was prompt, friendly, excited, and incredibly knowledgeable about all the details of hosting an event. The owners have done an incredible job keeping the memories while making major updates. The Villa team has been flexible in working with us to customize the space to our vision. We look forward to the end result to host an elegant, warm, and truly unique reception that will wow all of our guests. The gorgeous ballroom provides the perfect backdrop for our celebration from the waterfall and the tall curtains, and my future husband is happy with the sound system and huge TV for the DJ and the video we plan to show during the reception. We are so grateful to the team at Villa Bar & Banquet for helping prepare to make our wedding reception truly unforgettable.

Awarded Best of Zola
Beautiful space and great owners! Sarah was so helpful to work with and very genuine. Of all the venues we toured and owners we spoke with, Sarah stood out for understanding what her business is about and what it means for couples. She was so easy to work with and made the whole process smooth. The chalkboards were so fun to decorate and really added to our decorations. The space was well cared for and maintained. The bell tower was a great spot to take pictures, but brace yourself for a climb! We especially appreciated the Pay it Forward decoration closet. There were so many decoration options and themes to choose from! It was a real help for us to have on hand so we could limit how many decorations we purchased/rented. We loved getting married here and would recommend it to anyone!

Ellie took over later in the day and made sure everything went smoothly and cleaned everything up so quickly and helped us get all of our stuff! I cannot stop raving about how great they were! On top of the great staff, the venue is absolutely stunning. I received so many compliments on how gorgeous the venue was and how it was unique.
