    Hey everyone!

    I'm considering this venue for our wedding next summer and I've seen it mentioned a few times.  Could anyone who's had a wedding there, please give me some feedback?  I'm having a very hard time communicating with the contact at TGIS and it's making me very nervous.  I'm going to their tasting tomorrow so I'm hoping it will be better after that.

    Also, if you had your wedding there, I would love to see you photos if you don't mind sharing.  The photos they have aren't very good for getting an idea of how it looks set up and I still haven't received the photos they keep promising to send. 

    All advice is appreciated!!!

    also, i've heard great things from TGIS. They also are the caterers for Greystone Mansion in Beverly Hills which is an amazing place with picky brides. :)

    Thank you.  Yes, I've been there and love the space.  We are having the ceremony there in the courtyard as well.  I went to the tasting and it was excellent and we're going to move forward.  My only hesitation is the account manager, but I'm thinking a frank, upfront conversation about my expectations for customer service should help.  If that doesn't I'll have a chat with the owners.  :)

    Thanks for the comments!!!  Made me feel much better.

    we're having our wedding there in march 2009... i LOVE the courtyard for the ceremony and the ballroom is HUGE (might be too big for our 125-guest wedding). jeremy's a little hard to get a hold of at first, but he's replied to our emails pretty promptly now.  he's even made some recommendations for other vendors.

    not to mention... you can't beat that $14/person 6-hour open bar price!

    @WMforever: Just FYI, Greystone doesn't have official caterers, you can bring in whomever you want.
