Facilities and Capacity

The Desert Star Playhouse is an expansive theater setting that would ideally host the reception dinner. With ample seating for your guests, the pre-set pews can easily be decorated with wedding adornments that fit in with your chosen theme. The stage itself also acts as the perfect setting for the head table where the happy couple and select guests can sit.

The banquet hall is undoubtedly the most versatile space at Desert Star Banquets. Here, both indoor ceremonies and receptions can be held. Delightful wooden decor dominates the room from floor to wall as dark wood underfoot and wooden paneling create a rustic ambiance. Easily re-arranged to suit either wedding event, there is also a bar on-site for serving drinks.

Additionally, the event takes care of setup and cleanup, while parking is also available.
