They did WONDERFUL!! And my main worry was the food because we never tasted it before the wedding day but everyone told me that was the best wedding food they have ever had. It was the best priced place that we looked at that did everything for us.. We didnt do any decorating.. They placed everything in the perfect spots.. It was WONDERFUL!! And they were so helpful.

I had my wedding at the Cityplace 5th and 4th Atrium. Lindsay, the Sales Manager, was so helpful in answering any questions as we ironed out the contract details. She was always available to give opinions and feedback and help us through the process. When you are two weeks out from the wedding date Cityplace assigns you a service director. Our service director Margarita was great! She did a walk through with us and wrote down all the specific details i had envisioned. A couple of days prior to the wedding we dropped off our favors, napkins, etc and Margarita was there to help in anyway she could. On the day of everything was in its place just as we had planned. My parents said that the Cityplace staff followed through with bringing all of the gifts and items we brought to their car once the reception was over. I would say we were all very happy and impressed with the way Cityplace handled the wedding reception. We couldn't have asked for more!!

Only did our reception here...Lindsay worked with us on pricing even let us make some minor adjustments to the food and bar the week of our wedding. She was extremely accommodating.Bolivar, who was our day of on-site coordinator was on top of everything. Presented us options and suggestions, all of which worked out wonderfully. He let us add our touches to the event. Just an amazing site. Received tons and tons of compliments.

Cityplace was the perfect place to have our wedding reception!! Ever since we met Lindsay, I knew we would work well together. She and her team are efficient, quick to respond to emails and phone calls, and always kept us at ease throughout the planning. They were accomodating when we wanted to swing by and look at the space again or set up a tasting, and it was a true pleasure working with them. They made my wedding planning stress-free. Our reception was in the 42nd Floor Loft, which was super cool, edgy and fun. Lindsay recommended a vendor to use for lighting, and she was spot-on!! The food was great, our service director Bolivar was AMAZING, and things could not have gone more smoothly. Thanks to Cityplace for making our wedding day so fun, special and memorable!!

When my original wedding venue fell through, Cityplace was willing and able to help me re-plan the night of my dreams in just 2 weeks! I lost everything and they were very prompt to walk me through every detail of the evening, making sure the ceremony and reception set-ups were suitable, the reception chairs were comfortable, the food menu and presentation was perfect, and when the big day came, everything was outstanding!! I received so many compliments on how beautiful the venue was (the big windows make a gorgeous ceremony background) and how great the food was (we definitely suggest the mashed potato bar). The staff is incredibly nice and helpful, the presentation of the food and wait staff was very elegant, I would highly recommend this venue!!

AMAZING service, food, views, staff!I held my wedding reception on the 42nd floor on a Saturday night over looking the beautiful Dallas skyline. My family and friends stood at the windows in awe at the scene. The food was great and the service was even better! They made sure everything ran smoothly and was on time. There was a prom on another floor that night who was also departing at midnight, and to avoid a double exit and having 'prom kids' in my pictures, Cityplace allowed us to stay and dance for an additional 30 minutes complimentary!

Cityplace made my wedding truly the night of my dreams. After a nightmare of planning my wedding at another venue and having to cancel it, Lindsay called me and made miracles happen. The service was excellent, food and drinks great. They were flexible with my short time limits and worked all the kinks out beautifully! I got married on the 42nd floor loft and walked across to my reception. The views are beautiful! I highly recommend this venue!

Cityplace was wonderful! We had our wedding there this August and it was perfect. We booked the venue just over 3 months prior to our wedding. Kristen and the sales team made us feel so comfortable working with them. They are the most professional of all wedding vendors with whom I have worked. Our ceremony was on 5th floor which is church like in architecture and has great acoustics. We booked the 42nd floor ball room and had 180 guests and a band. The view is beautiful and the food is delicious. Lauro was our coordinator for the day of the wedding. He and Kristen did everything to make our day special including making last minute changes to make the reception decor perfect while the wedding was taking place on a different floor. We greatly appreciate all work and attention to detail that the Cityplace staff put into our wedding. We would and do recommend Cityplace to all!

Cityplace was my dream venue for our wedding ceremony and reception. My husband and I planned our wedding for 19 months before we got married. It took 16 venues before we found our dream place. We had a lot of guest coming from out of town so we wanted to have a venue that had everything without our guest traveling all over Dallas. Cityplace was perfect! We had our wedding ceremony on the first floor and our reception on the beautiful 42nd floor. We had cocktail hour outside the reception area before entering for dinner and that was beautiful as well. (FYI, "pink flamingo" is the best drink I ever had!) Kristen was awesome to work with. We changed our menu THREE TIMES! She gave us ideas, was supportive and was very responsive(we can appreciate that). I can tell that she wanted us to be very happy on our wedding day. Bolivar was our wedding captain and worked with our coordinator to make sure everything was in place like we discussed. I think about our wedding at Cityplace and would love to do it all over again. They helped make our wedding day as special as it was. Thank you for your hard workMr. & Mrs. Moore

Cityplace was so great! We had our reception for 160 people on the 42nd floor. Gorgeous views, excellent service and the food was delicious! Everyone had a great time! Samantha and Bolivar were so easy and helpful throughout the whole process. Bolivar helped my parents load up our gifts into their car at 1am! He was such a blessing to have on such a crazy night!! Highly recommend them for a wonderful and memorable reception!

Cityplace is an incedible place to have a wedding. My husband and I can't stop talking about what an amazing experience having our wedding at Cityplace was. Cityplace is well organized, thoughtful, and efficient. We were very pleased with the level or service and quality of facilities.

Cityplace was WONDERFUL!! We had our reception there. They provide the food - which we got so many compliments on, as well as tables, some decor, and anything else you might want them to help with (we rented dj equipment from them because we had a friend do it). We also had our wedding on a Friday night, and the minimums for food were cut in half because of that, making it an exceptional deal. Everything was beautiful and perfectly handled by our really on top of things "Wedding Captain" Juan, who communicated so well with the staff and my other vendors and made sure everything went over perfectly without ever having to ask me anything that day. (He also kept bringing me and my husband refilled glasses of champagne ALL NIGHT!) They give you an awesome send off basket with champagne, grapes, cheese, crackers, etc. which is SO nice. Also they make sure that before you make your entrance, you have some alone time and get to eat, which was great because then we could take all the time at the reception to dance, talk with guests, and just take everything in. Cityplace is awesome and beautiful. We used the 42nd Floor ballroom, which looks over the lights of downtown Dallas at night, and is in my opinion by far their best option. We loved it and wouldn't change a thing!

We arrived at Cityplace incredibly early after my ceremony ended and the caterers immediately began making and passing out hor's devours without any hesitation. The food, the atmosphere, and the service were incredible. Juan was so professional and made sure everything ran smoothly - he is the epitome of great customer service. I highly recommend Cityplace!

Love City Place!!! I had both my ceremony and reception there. Ceremony on the 1st floor and reception on the 42nd floor. City Place sales staff was extremely accommodating with my every need or concern. I didnÂ’t feel nickel and dime to death, as I did with other vendors. I must admit, as every bride, I was a bit skeptical at the beginning because I wanted everything to be just right. It wasnÂ’t until I met Juan (our wedding coordinator for evening) that I knew everything would be taken care of. He was wonderful and very attentive to me and my husbandÂ’s every need during the evening. Juan made City Place a huge success!!!! I would recommend anyone to City Place and ask for Juan.

I was extremely happy with our choice of Cityplace for our reception venue. We had the reception on the 42nd floor, and the view was breathtaking. The guests all commented on the great location. It was also a good size for the number of guests we had (150). The only downside to the location was parking. Some people with larger cars complained about the tight turns in the parking structure. The staff at Cityplace was great. The sales person was wonderful, very helpful, and responsive. She helped us determine the correct amounts of food for our guests, gave good referrals, and helped plan out our reception. They also provided a coordinator for the day of the wedding, and he was wonderful. They had champagne waiting for us when we arrived, got a selection of food for us from the buffet, and they always made sure we had a drink in our hands, with the drinks we had predetermined as our favorite. Everything ran smoothly the whole night.I also liked how we didn't have to worry about anything. All the details seemed well taken care of. We didn't have to worry about linens, tables, chairs, or even centerpieces. It was all included and done.The food from their catering staff was wonderful. I couldn't eat much because my stomach was all in knots, but we got several compliments from the guests, which I don't often see at weddings. We had a buffet of heavy appetizers for a dinner, as well as an open bar all night. The guests did not feel cheated on dinner, but were stuffed full, and the drinks were good. We were able to get a decent bar package (Absolut, Jack, etc.) with unlimited drinks for a reasonable price, and we didn't have to worry about getting a huge bill the next day.We were extremely happy with the service before, during, and after our wedding reception. It couldn't have gone better.

We had our reception at Cityplace in the 4th floor atrium and it was wonderful. There was plenty of space for dancing and mingling. The food was great. We were very pleased with the service and our wedding captain, Juan.

Wedding: 11/26/11
We had our ceremony and reception on the 42nd floor of Cityplace. The loft area for the ceremony is urban and more of a warehouse feel. The reception area is more tradional. We loved the contrast. The city views are spectacular and definitely worth the price you pay for. The food was excellent and staff was fabulous! Overall our venue was top notch. Our only difficulty was the tightness of security on the wedding day. We got ready in the dressing room on the 2nd floor, and my mom was running up and down to talk to the vendors who were setting up. No one was granted free reign in the building, so security had to escort people every time someone went to the 42nd floor. This was frustrating for my mom and photographer, but good in that I didn't want early arrivers to see the reception area. If you are someone like me who loves Dallas but doesn't consider yourself a modern bride, Cityplace can be the perfect location for your fairytale wedding!

Cityplace was amazing! I originally had wanted a DIY wedding to save some money, but as time wore on, I realized that it would put my stress level over the top (I suck at decorating). We paid a little more for the breathtaking view of downtown Dallas (plus the swanky 42nd floor was beautiful as it was with little decor), but we ended up dealing with very few vendors in the end once we picked Cityplace (cake, DJ, and photographer). They took care of the food, bar, decorating (they had decorations and we provided some special ones, but they took those from us and set it all up), setup of ceremony and reception in the way we wanted (even gave us a kids' activity table that I requested), and most of all, took care of the bride and groom! They kept our plates and glasses full. Our banquet captain, Lauro, was awesome. He kept things running seamlessly and put us at ease with how he managed the staff. The only issue (and very tiny) I had was that often you deal with a few people at Cityplace between your captain and the people in sales and banquets so you need to make sure everyone knows of the decisions you make. Everything can be done with Sales until about 3 weeks prior to the wedding when you are assigned a Banquet Captain. After that, all parties need to be made aware of any menu/bar/decoration/setup/headcount changes. There are so many details that it is better if everyone knows than nobody. You also get a free membership for the bride and groom to the fitness center in the building until your wedding date. We were only able to use it once since we don't live/work in the area, but this is was a great perk! The venue was perfect and the food was unbelievable (we got so many compliments on the entire night). I wouldn't have changed a thing except for it to last throughout the night - nobody wanted to go home. Half our guests were still there (& moaned) when the DJ announced last song - long after the bar and buffet shut down. This is one very happy bride!
