We came for the family history and stayed for the delicious food

We wanted to have our wedding at this hall because my grandfather was one of the founding members when this banquet hall was established. Steve and Jamie have been patient and flexible while changing dates during this pandemic over the past 2 years. The food was amazing! It was a delicious blend of west coast and traditional Sunday night dinner food. It was very reasonable in price for 100+ person wedding as it was buffet style. I don't think I could have found another place that was comparable in quality of food for the price.

Super Flexible and Amazing Experience

A big thanks to Jamie and Steve from Firefighters Banquette Hall, for providing us with a wonderful space to host our wedding ceremony. We sincerely appreciate the flexibility and understanding of the ongoing changing circumstances revolving around COVID and that they stood by and were ready to help us along the way. We appreciate every bit of help, useful info and suggestions that were provided to us and for taking care of our guests by providing water to those who were thirsty.

We highly recommend anyone who is looking for a great place to host their wedding, to check out Firefighters Banquette Hall.

Thanks again for everything.

Nicky & Chris
