We have received several calls about booking the venue this weekend, which has been booked solid for months. Some calls are because other venues canceled their events or double booked. And some because they assumed venues would be available at the last minute. We've been offered triple the booking rate to reschedule our current client's events. We do not do business like this! Once a client has booked a date (rental agreement signed and retainer/deposit paid), it's theirs unless they decide to cancel, no matter who comes after them and how much money is thrown at us. WE DO BUSINESS THE RIGHT WAY!

Start with us first and early because dates book fast, especially on Saturdays and during special events and holidays.

Check out this stunning Sweet 16 celebration for Auriana! When we began planning her special day, she had a clear vision: a sneaker ball with a club vibe. She specifically requested no balloons, no flowers (because, let’s face it, when have you seen those at a club?), and absolutely no oversized photos of her.

So, we created “Club A’Moore” (pronounced Amor, which means love—a nod to her name) to bring her dream to life. The VIP lounge and the sneaker ice sculpture are still giving us all the feels!

If your DJ tells you that he’ll have to step out for a bit but will leave the music playing during your party, and you're concerned about commercials, just save your money. Make yourself a good playlist and book the sound system in the hall. 🤦🏻‍♀️ Or let us help with your planning, we know a few great DJs.

Well, these dates are getting snatched up! Since my last post, dates crossed out in red are no longer available.

Note that an inquiry does not constitute a booking. Your date is not secure if you have not signed a rental agreement AND submitted a deposit. To avoid confusion, please do not send out save-the-dates or invitations listing The Great Hall as your venue until you have completed ALL steps and received confirmation, as dates are booked quickly, and availability is not guaranteed.

We’d love to host your event, and can’t wait to hear from you! Contact us soon to book your date.

What a party we had at the Backyard Bash/Outdoor Movie Night on Saturday at The Great Hall! It was a day filled with laughter, fun, and good vibes all around. From inflatables and giant lawn games to a co****le tournament, line dancing (Soul Line Dancing), face painting, and balloon animals, there was no shortage of entertainment. And let's not forget about the free water ice, soft pretzels, potato chips, beverages, and fresh popcorn that kept everyone fueled up.

The highlight of the night was the screening of Sonic the Hedgehog 2, and when Sonic himself made a surprise appearance, the excitement was through the roof! A big shoutout to our amazing team (Manny, Auriana, and India) and volunteers (Summer, Trip, Kenny, SuNora, Dani, Cheyenne, Ms. Shirley, and Justina and family) who made it all possible - you guys rock!

Thank you to everyone who came out! We can't wait for the next event with all of you! Stay tuned for more fun with 🎉🌞🎥🦔🎈🌭🍿🎈🥤🎈🎉
