    Superb Reception Experience

    We are so glad we chose the University Club at NC State ballroom for our wedding venue. It was a lovely setting for our Christmas winter wedding. The ballroom was gorgeous and the food was very good. The event planner, Cassie Parks, was very responsive and helpful in delivering a perfect venue experience.

    Perfect Venue

    Cassie and her team were AMAZING. We had our reception there with the plated dinner. Everything came out quickly and was delicious. Not only that, but the staff was so kind and efficient. I was constantly updating my timeline, adding/removing head count, and Cassie was so patient, kind and flexible. There is nowhere else I would have rather had our reception. It was perfect.

    I could not have picked a better venue!!! We had our ceremony outside on the rose garden patio and the reception inside the ballroom. The arrangement was perfect. Cassie was absolutely wonderful, and dealt with my continuous questions for 10 months straight with a smile on her face. The food was amazing, the servers were fantastic, and my wedding day was better than i could have ever imaged.

    We had our ceremony and reception at the NCSU club. Our ceremony was outside in the rose garden and our reception was in the Lutz Ballroom. Cassie Parks was great to work with. She made sure that if we had an issue it was resolved quickly. We received multiple compliments from our guests about how great the food was and how beautiful the venue was. We were so happy with the venue and would recommend it to others. GO WOLFPACK!

    We had our reception at the NC State University Club where we worked with Cassie. Working with Cassie was the highlight of wedding planning. She is organized, easy to work with, and quickly responds to questions. Cassie is also very accommodating. The Club itself had wonderful food, great ballrooms, ample parking, and was reasonably priced. I definitely recommend this to anyone I know!

    We chose the NC State University Club for our wedding reception, and we are so glad that we did! The events manager, Cassie Parks, is awesome to work with! We met with her multiple times to work out wedding details, and she was so patient, and never minded giving us her time. She put on a tasting for us to try the various entrees we were choosing from before the wedding, which was a lot of fun! She let us bring some of our supplies before that Saturday morning, which was very helpful. On the wedding night, the waitstaff and bartenders did an excellent job, and all of our guests gave a lot of complements! My husband and I didn't get to eat, and they boxed up food from our reception and put it in our getaway car, for which we are forever grateful!! We would definitely recommend the NC State University Club as an excellent reception venue.

    I searched for a long long time to find a venue for my reception that isn't going to cost me an insane about of money! This by far was the most affordable and inclusive. For the price, we had the space, tables, napkins, tablecloths, dishes, and wait staff. Their menu prices are also very reasonable and the food is amazing! They are prompt to responding to your e-mails and will meet with you as often as you need too. I would go on Saturdays to see how others were decorating and using the space for their wedding. They are very open and flexible to setting things up how you want it.

    My wedding reception was beautiful! The layout and how it all came together was perfect! The wait staff were attentive and friendly. They were very organized and professional throughout the whole process. I would absolutely recommend this venue!

    We used the NC State University Club as our reception site, and highly recommend it to other couples. After visiting several other venues, we were really happy when we found the Club - the price was right within our budget, and the venue is lovely, with multiple banquet rooms available depending on reception size, and a beautiful outdoor rose garden was a great area for guests to mingle outside. The manager, Cassie Parks, was a joy to work with throughout the entire planning process. She met with us several times to finalize the menu, room set up, and allowed us to visit the club many times to see how other couples used the space and decorated. She responded to emails quickly and was very patient with all of my detailed questions. During our food tasting, we loved all of our choices, and have received many comments after the wedding about how great the food was. The london broil and chicken dip appetizer were stand outs! Cassie and her staff were great on the wedding day, and reduced my stress greatly by sticking to my timeline when I had no clue what time it was. They have clearly hosted many weddings, and knew exactly what was needed when and how to accomplish it. The Club turned out to be the perfect venue for us, and I am so happy that we found it! Thank you, Cassie, for making our reception stress free and fun.

    We had our reception at the NCSU Club and are really glad we picked it! Cassie was good to work with and communicating by email made it easy to get things done. The staff during the reception was top notch and took care of everything. People RAVED about the food (chicken romano and the sweet potato casserole) and the fruit display was very pretty! We felt that they were priced very well and had a really good amount of space. They worked wonderfully with our coordinator. The driveway up to the club made for some amazing pictures! I would definitely recommend using this location!

    Our wedding in Santa Barbara in early September was absolutely perfect!! Our ceremony was at the beautiful mural room in the Courthouse and then we hosted our reception at the Rivera Mansion University Club. We planned a small, out of town wedding so detail coordination was important to say the least; working with the mansion for the reception which included many additional items including linens and tables and silver and glasses, etc. helped eliminate several frustrations and time constraints. Communication with the mansion in the months preceding was very cordial and on the day of the event the staff was very attentive and friendly. The mansion staff, furthermore, as you would expect, is well acquainted with many wedding service providers around town - DJs, florists etc., - which can help assist in the booking process for outside vendors. The event space itself is very beautiful and perfect for a classic wedding setting. We opted for a cocktail hour on the grass (the patio was otherwise occupied for an internal event) and the dining room was warm and welcoming which can be made to fit a large or small attendee level. We look forward to coming back to Santa Barbara and the mansion to revisit our wedding memories.

    So the club was a deal on price. The person I worked with to arrange the venue was not there day of or day prior and basically the staff was asking questions up and through the event. While I was not as diligent as I guess I should have been especially for things that they staff needed to know, I should have been asked before time, which caused for some frustrations. I planned the ceremony on the patio and was assured it would be ready. It was not as manicured as I felt it should be. " Passed" horderves were not passed. It was nice that the staff helped cleaned off the table and allowed me to pick up stuff the following week. They staff was very friendly which was nice. If you are detail oriented and picky bride this may not be the place for you but about 20$ a person for food and service it was nice.

    Cassie was good to work with, she could have been alittle more personable and a little more flexible but over all I give them a great review. Their pricing was pretty reasonable. The staff was really great to work with, and they let us come in the night before and set up. The cost was worth we got out of it, the food was very good, and over all it was a very nice reception and location. We also had our rehersal dinner there.

    Happy-Not Happy

    The venue was Beautiful! We used the ballroom and there is a ton you can do with that space.
    The Price was Amazing! I was on a tight budget and had a massive guest list & it worked out wonderfully.
    The Food was Great! There are tons of lower & higher budget options and they all taste amazing.
    The staff was Professional! Everyone(except one) was helpful & welcoming.
    The liaison, Cassie Parks, was Absolutely Terrible! If I weren't a type-A-do everything yourself type of gal, I would Definitely not have made it to a wonderful wedding day. There were so many poor interactions with this lady that I honestly won't be able to fit it in this review space, but I will list a couple.
    When I set up a meeting with her, she was always late. When I had questions, I would have to ask multiple times & be overly specific in order to get any sort of answer that I needed. I even went to the venue myself once, just to figure out what I needed all by myself. etc. etc. etc.
    I went so far as to tell my family to keep her away from me on my wedding day because of all of the unneeded stress she caused me.
    If Cassie wasn't a part of my experience, I would truly and honestly give this venue a 10 out of 10!
    Also, this was in 2017-So she may or may not still be working there.
