    From the moment we toured this place all the way to our big day, The Melody Event Center was wonderful to work with. The staff was extremely kind, helpful and professional during each planning meeting and always had great ideas to make our vision come to life. Communication with all the staff was excellent. The Classic Restored building made our day feel elegant and timeless. The food was AMAZING and the chef was supper accommodating to our requests. We absolutely loved that they provide everything in house from table and linens all the way to food and decorations. This made planning so much easier since we did not have to source out multiple vendors. Totally recommend this venue for any wedding!
