Orlando Gardens

Choosing Orlando's for my receptions was one of the best choices that I made. The food was awesome and the staff was friendly and accommodating. My guests were very complimentary of the decor, food, and service offered by Orlando's and you couldn't ask for a better value. I would highly recommend it.

Great service, very personal and responsive to our needs!

We had an amazing experience. Everyone was so helpful, the event went exactly as planned, and we receive a lot of compliments on the food, wait staff, decor and just everything. Thanks so much!!!

I had my reception at Orlando Gardens. They did such an awesome job, and my guests are still raving about the food. I suggest that you spend then extra to have the chair covers and sashes, they make all the difference and the room looked so ellegant!

Orlando Gardens contributed to a phenomenal service for our wedding reception, and went above and beyond their call of duty. Services which had a price tag were provided for w/o additional costs (i.e. cake passing). The service manager of the night was very friendly, made sure everything was up to our expectations and was on top of the details (Wedding party-line up for DJ announcement; periodic checks during reception; assistance in retrieving wedding gift card"box" contents). Their wedding box was a nostalgic item; it was like an old front-door mail slot w/o the door. Very cool. Gotta love the whole reception ensemble: chandeliers, dimmed but not dark room, walled mirrors and hardwood floors for buffet/dj/dancing. We purchased the dinner buffet package, and was skeptical on the taste. Mostly because we lived out of town and didn't have a chance to test the food. However, the food turned out to be delicious. I recommend the chicken spiedini and cavatelli and their salad was fresh! Plus side on the expense is that there is no room rental or minimum to meet for the dinner service (Not that I can recall). They also referred us to a DJ service who totally rocked! We loved our enthusiastic and professional DJ. Also, they made it easy for us when it came to setting up the dinner tables with wedding favors and menus. Drop it off and they will set it up! I highly recommend Orlando Gardens for such a memorable night. Thanks!

We couldn't have picked a better place to do our wedding. Up until the day of the wedding Drew was extremely helpful in getting every last detail planned. He was very accommodating and happy to help. On the day of the wedding, Chip made sure everything was in order and everyone was in the right place. Orlando Gardens is great because they have someone helping you every step of the way. The room was beautiful and the meal was delicious. They also partner with several other area businesses to make this a one stop shop. They made it easy to get a cake, find a dj, and even find a shuttle to bring guests from the reception to the hotel. I would highly recommend this venue.

I had my reception at the Wester Groves location. Everything ran smoothly and I didn't have to worry about a thing. The food was good and the drinks never stopped. For those on a budget I reccommend Orlando's Gardens. They will treat you right and give you your money's worth.

I would highly recommend Orlando Gardens Hoffmeister location. We worked with Jim Helton who was wonderful and our bartender Tim was great as well. Food was amazing and the Venus room looked great!

I could not be more thrilled with the Orlando family. Our ceremony was held at the beautiful Lodge at Grant's Trail. This 3-story log cabin bed and breakfast was the perfect setting for our rustic themed wedding. Every detail adds to the charm of this venue. Our family members each had a room for the night, allowing us to share breakfast together on the first day of our new lives. We will be back every year to remember and celebrate this special night. The reception was held at the banquet hall. All of guests raved about the delicious food. The entire staff was so courteous and helpful from the moment of planning, to ensuring the hall was setup perfectly, to caring for us throughout the night, and even to ensuring all of our belongings were packed safely away for us to take home. Every step of the way was seamless. We cannot thank you all enough for making our wedding dream come to life.

The staff at Orlando's is amazing!!!! 2 weeks before my wedding we had a drastic drop in the number of people to attend the reception. I contacted them and within 24 hours we had a new contract written up and my reception was moved to a smaller ballroom in order to keep us from over paying by about 50 people. They have amazing customer service. They also are fantastic at fixing any problems on the spot. When my parents arrived ahead of the bridal party, the A/C was having some problems. Within about 20 minutes of my mother notifying the staff they had the problem fixed. This was especially important considering the heat index that day was 105 degrees!! The food is wonderful, the facilities are beautiful and well kept, and the staff is simply beyond compare!!

Orlando's was great. Throughout the process, Densie and Carol were easy to get a hold of to ask questions and make changes. I would recommend them to anyone.

Awesome service! We had a person by our side the whole time to get us drinks, help us find things, everything. They were great to work with, and we would definitely recommend them to anyone in the St. Louis area.

Orlando's at Dorsett was fantastic! They were very helpful, and they did everything we asked. I would definitely recommend them!

Tommy at Orlando Gardens was awesome! We got an excellent value for our cost. They had never served ice cream before but they did it for us!

We were able to get in early to set up our decorations, it was really an awesome value - beatiful reception at a nice price! I couldn't be happier :)

Our winter wedding was perfectly set at Orlando's with their amazing holiday decor! And the food was INCREDIBLE! Nearly every person I've spoken with in the week since our wedding has complimented how great the food was and how beautiful the decor was!

This reception host/caterer was absolutely wonderful! We were all so frazzled and lost track of time, but they people there were very on top of things and made sure everything went smoothly, which it did!

Our wedding reception was perfect! Jim was fantastic to work with while planning, and he offered many suggestions on how we could customize our event to our needs. Guests commented on how wonderful the food tasted (even those who had been to Orlandos many times before), and they also talked about how elegant the hall looked. So glad that we opted for the deluxe buffet and the mirrored tiles/votive candles! Also, in terms of the packages, everything was clealry explained on the contract, and Orlandos honored it so that there were no hidden fees or unexpected last minute costs. Also, an added relief...the staff at Orlandos was gracious enough to set-up our favors for the guests so we didn't have to arrive early or spend time on set-up. Our manager, Sandy, was professional and genuinely seemed interested in making the night special. She also made sure that everything ran on time and smoothly with the buffet, cake cutting, and dances. It was nice to know that she and the DJ had everything under control so that my parents, husband, and I could relax and enjoy the evening! I could not be more pleased with the night or have asked for a more wonderful celebration! I highly recommend Orlando Gardens.

Orlando Gardens was a fantastic reception venue. Drew and Mike were so great to work with and so flexible with the different things I wanted. The hall was beautiful and the food was amazing, lots of my guests commented on that. The outside of the building is deceiving to how big and nice the inside is.

Working with Terri Noftsinger from Orlando Gardens was GREAT! She was always available when I needed here and she organized everything fabulously. All of the rentals were perfect. The food was perfect for the event.
