Our daughters wedding ceremony and reception were held at HQO Events beautiful facility overlooking the river. The staff at HQO (Raul, Kelly, Terry et al) were very easy to work with and very accomodating to various changes we made during the planning process. The staff is professional, courteous, friendly and responsive. On the day of the wedding, we had to move the ceremony and reception indoors due to forecast for thunderstorms. HQO handled this change without hesitation; the setup went smoothly due to their preparation and coordination with vendors. We recommend HQO Events with high marks.

Great interior design. The valet parking took Forever and the thermostat was too hot, but the ambiance was great.

RnB night on the riverfront was an entire vibe. Bottle service was top-notch. I met some really good people. The venue was very tastefully decorated.
