The Customer Experience

From start to finish MEC was outstanding! Every single staff member we worked with was knowledgeable, helpful and made us feel comfortable. They answered all of our questions, were accommodating and made sure our wedding day went smoothly and exactly as we wanted. The day of service was incredible, everyone was served a hot meal which is shocking for a wedding- more often than not as a guest, I’ve eaten a cold meal. Many of our guests commented on how the food was hot and delicious! The bar was amazing and the staff was so much fun. The day of coordinator they provided was wonderful as well. They truly think of everything and make sure their couples have everything they need. We loved this venue so much, from the first time we saw it, it was inviting, cozy and beautiful. On the day of our event it was even more beautiful with the simple touches we added. We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about MEC, our guests are still telling us how much fun they had.
