What an evening! What an Event! Craig and The Ballroom’s staff are fantastic. They made the biggest night of my presidency one of the most memorable in our history. Working on an official thank you… but you have my eternal gratitude for creating the night of my dreams.
Wow! We felt instantly like we had a family of support! Thank you a MILLION times to the moon and back for such a great event and for your tremendous generosity! I sincerely value our relationship and hope to continue our partnership in the future.
Thank you for a beautiful evening! Everyone loved the space and the food, and your staff was wonderful! Your help and support has proven invaluable to this organization. Thank you from your friends at HCCLA.
WOW! Words can’t describe what a fabulous party we had for my daughter’s Bat Mitzvah. Craig was wonderful to work with and helped to exceed my expectations. He came up with a wonderful selection of food, from appetizers to buffet lines. Everything went perfectly! He even made some wonderful recommendations for an amazing dessert display. His staff was incredible and very friendly too! If you are looking for a large space for a event, look no further than The Ballroom at Bayou Place! Thank you Craig for making our daughter’s party one to remember for years to come!
Look no further! This space is phenomenal— a large open concept space to do anything and everything you always envisioned for your one of a kind event, plain carpet(can’t stand floral carpet), beautiful infinity chairs, gorgeous draping, mesmerizing downtown views from the wrap-around, oversized balconies! Craig and Stephanie were the icing on the cake! They are VERY ACCOMMODATING, so helpful and just simply amazing sweet people! Always willing to help with open arms and super quick with responses. We miss them and hope to work with them again in the future!
Craig and his staff seem to always go above and beyond. We recently had our Innaugral L’Affaire Du Monde Fashion show and Craig was amazing in his efforts and attention to detail. We are committed to using this venue for our upcoming events. The service and space are priceless. On behalf of our staff and the guests who attended: Thank you and your staff for treating us as family.
