Perfect Rehearsal Dinner
— An Eventective User
from Cary
We wanted an original place to have our rehearsal dinner and a pre-wedding party. We absolutely loved working with Sydney on planning our event. The venue was perfect for hosting our 100 person dinner on the 4th floor being able to look out over the roof top to downtown Raleigh. We then moved to the first floor where we had a band play music in the globe and had 100 more people join us! It was the perfect location for an original dinner that people will never forget!
