“My husband and I had our reception at the Gillespie Center and I can’t tell you how absolutely perfect and amazing it was to have it here. From working with Noor, to catering to the front desk staff, this is the place to hold all of your wedding needs! We had so many compliments after our big day about how great the space was! Noor was incredibly helpful, generous and willing to work with us during a global pandemic and was MORE than accommodating. I didn’t have to worry about a thing on my wedding day and it turned out so incredibly beautiful. I can’t thank the Gillespie center enough for the most perfect day that we had. If you are debating on where to have your reception, this is the place to have it!”
“My daughter had her wedding reception here recently. Best place to have a wedding! Nice, professional, and super competent people. They did a wonderful job and thought of things we hadn’t even considered. Everyone worked tirelessly. Most people came back to work for the breakfast we held the morning after. They couldn’t have had much sleep, yet they were personable and provided great service! Noor, Leeann, and all the coordinating staff did a great job coordinating with all the vendors. I felt EVERYONE that worked here had a personal interest in making sure our wedding was perfect. Thank you.”
“The Gillespie Center was the perfect vendor for our daughter’s wedding! With help from Noor, LeAnn, and their staff, the day was incredible! They helped with every step of the reception planning, and did everything that needed to be done for setup and tear-down on the wedding day. The food was spectacular! To have the hotel accommodations available to our guests in the same building was very nice. We were extremely pleased with the Gillespie Center and would recommend them to anyone planning an event.”
“What an amazing job they did!!! Everything was perfect. We had worked with two coordinators there, Noor and LeAnn, and they both were so helpful! From setting up all the table decorations the night before to making sure everything was in the right spot at the right time, they truly did such amazing work. The venue was beautifully decorated. The service was great. The food was delicious. We couldn’t have been happier with how everything turned out. It was absolutely perfect! We are so happy with our decision to have our wedding reception here. 100% would recommend.”
“I recently got married there and Clay and I had the best experience and the best day of our life! The staff made sure my friends and family were always taken care of and everything we asked for was taken care of! I got the chance to work with Noor and she answered all my wild questions and met with me as many times as I needed! I can’t thank them all enough.”
