Our goal is to make the experience of every guest memorable. Following are just a few reviews from past brides, parents of the bride, and other guests:

Emily, 12/10/2022 Event

Thank you for everything this weekend. Your staff was amazing and our team had a wonderful time. Hope to do this again soon!


Kelly, 12/5/2022 Event

Thank you so much for the wonderful party! Everyone was so happy and had a great time.


Jacky, 11/2022 Event

On one of our impromptu requests for a room we were delighted with 3 of your associates who went above and beyond their roles, maybe even uncomfortably to make our meeting a success.

I just wanted the Marriott to know that this exceeded our expectations and has secured our dollars to your hotel and convention center for the future. Please pass on my thanks to your team.


Jacob, 10/2022 Wedding

Seriously, we had the BEST time because everything was so smooth, thanks to you and the staff! I can’t think of a single thing that went wrong that night, thank you SO MUCH for everything you did! We seriously couldn’t have asked for a better wedding!!!


Naomi, 8/2022 Event

The event was all we hoped for.  The set-up was beautiful.  The staff was outstanding in their service – as we were planning – in handling the set-up – and in all the functions they had during the event.  I was surprised at how attentive they were when they came up to me to ask if they could fix me a plate because they noticed I had not gone through the line.  Many of our guests specifically mentioned to us how tasty the food was.  We would be happy to give anyone a referral to your venue.

Thank you all for your part in making this very special day so memorable for us.


Elise, 5/2022 Wedding

Phenomenal Experience!

The Emerald Event Center was perfect all around. Our guests commented that the food and cake were both some of the best they’ve ever had! We had 250 guests and the space was perfect, including the beautiful courtyard. The wait staff and bartenders were friendly and efficient. Shannon was SO helpful during the entire process, she was quick with her responses and helped bring my dream wedding to life!


Alicia, 3/2022 Wedding

Incredible, must hire!

Super simply put, you will not get anymore bang for your buck anywhere else. The Emerald Event Center is beautiful, clean, new, and attentive. They handle nearly everything and make sure the logistics are taken care of, even on rehearsal day. I’ve heard so many compliments on how beautiful the venue was and how delicious dinner tasted. I could not be more grateful for everything the team took care of here.

Will keep in touch for future events.

Emerald Event Center was the absolute perfect location for our wedding. The staff was incredible from day 1. Of course, our wedding was during the pandemic and we had to postpone. Kelly Arthur and her team pivoted with me every step of the way. She was just as excited (with good news) and sad (with bad news) for me every step of the way and I will never forget that. When we pulled up to EEC on our wedding day, I saw her and said, “there is my girl!” with a huge smile on my face. She was so sweet to give us a personalized gift which means I know she listened to me talk about my dog multiple times :). The day of the wedding (at 3pm, while we were in church getting married), the governor put restrictions on alcohol and closed all bars across the state early. They were very kind and flexible and had little surprises to make it better! The food was great, the staff was amazing, and the overall experience will NEVER be forgotten. I highly recommend! You know they love what they do – it’s more than just a job for them.



Lisa K, Married on 09/06/2020 Absolutely perfect venue!!!

Planning a wedding through Covid, you would think be a nightmare. Kelly made the experience so enjoyable and so much less stressful than I expected. Kelly was fantastic figuring out ways to keep the wedding elegant even while following safety protocols from the state. She listened to my ideas and did everything she could to make our wedding perfect. She truly cared about making our day special and personal. The venue was stunning and the food was great. Perfect is an understatement for how great this venue was.



Molly H, Married on 02/22/2020 10/10 would recommend!

I cannot express our gratitude for the staff at The Emerald Event Center. They helped us achieve our dream wedding! Everything ran smoothly the day of, and they were there every step of the planning process. If I had to do it all over again, I wouldn’t change a thing.



Jessica M, Married on 01/25/2020 Beautiful venue

The Emerald Event center was the perfect place to host our wedding! Shannon was super helpful and very prompt with my million emails and questions! They also handle decorating the ballroom which eased a lot of my stress! I would highly recommend hosting a wedding here!
