From the reviews
We had a wedding at Crystal Palace in July 2014. For one, the food quality of this particular banquet hall was better than anything I've had before at other weddings. The place looks great, and you can tell a lot of hard work was put into it.
Beautiful banquet! My son had an event at this banquet for his wedding reception. I was a big part of it all. I accompanied his Fiance to look at the reception and organize everything that had to do with the reception. All the decorations were beautiful!
Best Banquet brilliantly equipped with modern style cooking facilities and equipment. Their food is always cooked to perfection and served adequately warm. Very impressive and comfortable environment for Weddings and other family celebrations.
Just want to thank everyone at Crystal Palace for helping us make our wedding celebration an amazing event. Every one from the servers to the bartenders and Hanny were all great! All my guests were complementing on the good food and the service and how beautiful the place was.
Getting married at Crystal Palace Banquets
A castle wedding is the once-in-a-lifetime, storybook kind — the grand staircase, the ballroom, the gardens and turrets your photos will live on forever. Castle weddings commonly run $10,000–$40,000+ depending on the date, guest count, and how much is included, so ask for a written quote for your season — Crystal Palace Banquets doesn’t publish a set price, and tiers move fast. Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see it at the time of day you’d actually get married — a ballroom that glows at golden hour can feel very different at noon, and you’ll want to walk the path your guests take from the gates to the ceremony to the reception. Second, bring your real questions: what’s included with the venue fee (tables, chairs, setup, teardown), the catering and bar policy, whether you can stay overnight on-site, the rain plan for a garden ceremony, and the music curfew. Fairytale dates at castle venues book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what’s open in your season before you leave.
Galas & corporate events at Crystal Palace Banquets
Reviews and the castle's own info mention galas, corporate events, or private parties at Crystal Palace Banquets — castle venues often have real weekday availability since weddings claim the weekends. A quick call answers the three things that matter: weekday and off-season rates, whether the space works for your headcount and A/V needs, and what catering is allowed. If your event lands on a Friday or Saturday in wedding season, ask early.
