We had our daughters first birthday here and we are definitely going to be having more events here. Everyone was so accommodating and helpful while giving us plenty of time to set everything up and helping decorate. There wasn't a single thing I'd change with how everything went they really went above and beyond and made us feel comfortable in their space. Plus they had some of the best lemonade I've ever had.

I've attended several events here, the last of which was a wedding for a close friend. The owners and staff went above and beyond to make sure that my friend's special day was as close to perfect as it could possibly be! The venue was beautifully decorated with the help of some items my friends bought, as well as some items the venue had available for use. Everything from the expertly arranged table set up to the lighting, the music to the DJ's skillful guidance to keep everything right on track -- it was all perfectly executed. 👌 The catering area and dessert tables were also very well done. Did I mention the signature drink that Vera Lee's helped to create for the special day? No? Well, it was dangerously delicious! The entire evening ran very smoothly, and each guest seemed to be having a great time. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable of event needs and expectations, and is absolutely amazing! Definitely give Kirstan and Kathy a call for your next event -- you won't be disappointed!!

We held our father’s 90th birthday party at Vera Lee and we are so glad we chose this venue. It was the perfect size and has everything you can possibly need. But what really makes it special is the care and attention that Kirstan and Kathy give to their guests. They go above and beyond to help with set up and provide anything that we forgot (platters, vases, command strips, etc!). All of our guests commented on what a wonderful venue it was. Thank you, Kirstan and Kathy for making our event so special and memorable!

The space is adaptable to many uses, and the owners are the best. They were on site two hours before the event and helped us with every aspect—there was nothing we needed that they did not provide. 🌟

Beautiful, clean, inviting and spacious. They can accommodate any type of party or event you want. Retirement, Birthday, Reception etc. The best part are the owners, they are so nice, friendly and professional. They know the event/party industry and they are very helpful with whatever you need. Music, catering, decorations etc. I highly recommend, you will not be disappointed. 9/8/2025

Awesome event center as very elegant. My family and l secured a table of 8 for the Mother's Day Brunch. Everything was fabulous and plentiful. There were so many favorite things going on from homemade desserts to omelet bar, drink bar, photographer... You name it, and they had it. Thank you, Kirstan & Kathy, for elevating Mother's Day for so many deserving mommas ❤️

This weekend I hosted my cousin’s bridal shower. Vera Lee’s is a beautiful clean venue with a large capacity. The owners were so great to work with, this was my first time ever doing anything like this, and they were so flexible and patient with me and supported me from beginning to end. Their staff was just as pleasant to work with. They made many accommodations for me and I truly can’t thank them enough for helping me make this event possible … if you need an event space look no further 😌

We have all of our birthdays and large events here the owners are the absolute best. They truly think about everything and have everything to make your party special. I can't say enough good things about the service, response, time and cleanliness of the venue. We love this place and we will continue to use it for everything that we can. They did everything they could to make my daughters birthday special and they definitely delivered!

DJ K is the BEST! He keeps the party going and really makes sure everyone is having a great time! We had him for our wedding in May and could not recommend him enough! We had so much fun with him and everyone danced the night away. We also just went to a friend’s wedding and knew once we saw he was the DJ that it was going to be a great time! Highly recommend

Kirstan and his wife are the best owners of an event center that you could ask to deal with! We looked at booking the facility for a wedding anniversary party initially but had to change those plans- Despite changing course and eventually using the booking for a Celebration of Life dinner, Kirstan was extremely patient, flexible, and willing to work with me as we switched planning strategies. They were accommodating and made concessions when needed at the dinner. They ultimately made a very stressful time much easier for me as the planner! The dinner ended up being very successful despite having to plan on short notice! Thank you!!
