“Long overdue review…. We have had several parties here over the last few years and each one has been amazing! The center itself has such an ambiance, the parking is great, restrooms are spotless… and the best part is you get Jan!!!!! She is very accommodating and easy to work with. She has years of expertise and is willing to share it with you to make for a flawless event! I highly recommend Diamond Match for all your events!”

“EXTREMELY IMPRESSED - They helped us when we needed them on a more last-minute basis and the service was excellent, the room VERY nice, and the food was great. Thank you Guy's Party Center!”

“Elm Ridge Event Center made our wedding absolutely perfect. From day one, Josh and Sarah were amazing, patient, communicative, and genuinely kind, even when I had a lot of questions. They never once made us feel like we were asking too much. They even worked with us to accommodate our vegan guests. Lol for every request, question, or idea I had, they were like “Cool, we’ve got this.” The food was delicious, the cake was gorgeous and tasty, and our guests couldn’t stop talking about how good the drinks were. Also the venue was stunning.

On the big day, Sarah legit just jumped in with helping unload things from our car. Lol I didn’t expect anyone from the venue to help with that and even said she didn’t have to lol. She not only didn’t mind but was excited to join in. Every single staff member carried that same “we’ve got you” energy. Tables were cleared in record time, drinks magically refilled themselves no matter where I was in the venue, and if there was ever any tiny miscommunication, it was handled immediately and gracefully. Jeff, our DJ through their all-inclusive package, absolutely ran the night. He was professional, fun, and so good at reading and running the room. When I say he ran the night, I mean he orchestrated the wedding walk, made sure I was happy and calm before it was my turn, and made sure we were on time with every main part of our timeline. He was legit amazing and our guests, and the wedding party, were impressed lol.

Elm Ridge didn’t just meet our expectations, they went above and beyond in ways we didn’t even realize most venues wouldn’t. The whole day felt effortless, joyful, and full of care. Josh, Sarah, and Jeff made a day that was so important to us feel so comfortable and just…idk, it all felt right and magical. Lol, I'm tearing up thinking about it but that day, start to finish, was perfect.”

“1000/10 – Absolutely Perfect Wedding Experience!
I truly don’t have enough words to describe how incredible our wedding day was, and it’s all thanks to our phenomenal venue La Place Events and our amazing coordinator, Orly.

From start to finish, Orly went above and beyond. He was incredibly interactive with our guests, making everyone feel welcome and cared for. He checked in on me constantly throughout the day, making sure I was comfortable, calm, and enjoying every moment. His presence was reassuring and his attention to detail was unmatched, he made everything run flawlessly.

The venue itself was stunning, and the entire team was exceptional. The bar staff were friendly, professional, and kept the drinks flowing smoothly all night. And the food? Absolutely delicious our guests are still raving about it!

Orly made our wedding day feel effortless and magical. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your day like it’s his own, who will care deeply about every detail, and who will make sure you and your guests have the best experience possible Orly is your guy.

Thank you, Orly, for making our day perfect. We’ll never forget it!”

“We hosted our Sober Curious Silent Disco at Elite Banquet and I could not have asked for a better experience. The owner was incredibly accommodating and made everything seamless from start to finish. The space was already prepared and ready for us as soon as we arrived, and she even displayed our flyers on the TV screens which added a special touch to the atmosphere.

The venue was clean, welcoming, and truly supported the vision of our event. My guests had an amazing time and loved the space just as much as I did. I am grateful for the professionalism and hospitality, and I look forward to working with Elite Banquet again.”

“Hands down the best priest. Fr Pfeiffer provides a very reverent mass with the most beautiful homilies. I appreciate that they are very thought provoking and deeply rooted in theology which provides much needed spiritual nourishment.”

“My family and I recently had a wonderful time at Canal Park, home of the Akron Ducks stadium. The atmosphere at the stadium was inviting and family-friendly, making it a perfect outing for all ages. We were pleasantly surprised to find out about the recycling/infocycle activities available at the stadium, which provided a fun and educational experience for everyone.

The environment at Canal Park was wholesome and welcoming, with friendly staff and fellow attendees creating a positive and inclusive atmosphere. The small-scale professional baseball team event was a refreshing change from larger, more crowded stadiums, allowing for a more intimate and enjoyable experience.

Engaging in the recycling/infocycle activities was a highlight of our visit. It was great to see the stadium promoting sustainability and educating visitors on the importance of recycling. My family had a blast participating in these activities and learning more about how we can help protect the environment.

Overall, our time at Canal Park was fantastic. The combination of a fun, small-scale professional baseball event and engaging recycling/infocycle activities made for a memorable and enjoyable outing. I would highly recommend visiting Canal Park for a unique and family-friendly experience that is sure to be fun for all ages.”

“Great hall to rent for having your special event. Prices are reasonable and staff is friendly. There is also a member's bar here. Please come and check out the KofC and you may just want to join one of the world's most charitable organizations.”

“Movie theater is comfortable. The enployees seem friendly although I always have to ask for 3D glasses when they should know to provide them. I always have to tell them i need pair for a kid when he's standing right with me. The online process is easy to use and the order ahead feature is genius.”

“Today our union had a lovely lunch for us today and Bradley’s was our food catering and I just wanted to thank you because the food is super super delicious✨❤️☺️”

“if you’re getting married, GET MARRIED AT CHENOWETH! Jan & Sandy were absolute angels throughout our entire wedding planning process. They decorated, tore down, and kept me happy throughout the whole day. The entire Chenoweth staff was incredible, kind, and so helpful for our special day. And the FOOD? Omg Chef Barb THANK YOU! So delicious! It was worth every penny for this beautiful venue. Don’t hesitate, talk to Jan and get married here! —from Corbin & Audrey Wandling”

“Perfect location to stop on our journey, super close to restaurants and shopping too. Because we stopped off season the breakfast won't be the full menu but enough to get us going.”

“A typical bowling alley from the 70s. The balls are in terrible condition. The food is just ordinary fast food. Sometimes it seems like something should be updated at least once every 10 years – not just the bowling equipment, but the menu, the service, or something else.”

“We had our son’s birthday party here and let me tell you, we were SO impressed by the kindness, consistency, cleanliness, organization and overall incredible service of this place!! You can tell the team shares great communication from the front to the back, I didn’t have to lift a finger. They were also very accommodating to any changes needed for my party. My guests were very pleased as well! Thank you so much for giving us a good time and helping us celebrate our baby, we will be back!”
