Terrible experience from beginning to end...bad table, out of 3 entres...never

My husband and I got married in September 2021 and I can confidently say that Dave and the staff at Panevino did everything they could—and more—to make our wedding one of the best days of our lives. Our wedding was planned during the height of the pandemic and, as such, we ran into our fair share of hiccups. We originally chose Panevino because they offered a fantastic value that had everything we wanted and the use of their restaurant space for our reception. Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances related to Covid, their restaurant space became impossible to use. Before reaching out to share the bad news with me, Dave consulted our ceremony venue to see if they could host our reception and secured multiple options for us—at no extra cost. Similarly, due to the same unforeseen circumstances, Panevino was unable to procure alcohol for the event, but Dave worked with us to ensure we purchased the right amount and reimbursed us. Dave and his Panevino staff were communicative, kind, and invested in our wedding, and he more or less held our hands through the entire process. Our wedding guests raved about the food, the service, and the events of the night for months after. Despite the hiccups and stress of planning a wedding during Covid, our wedding day was flawless, beautiful, and nurtured to perfection by Panevino. We could not be more grateful.

I booked a wedding there a week ago this is just my experience. While touring and looking for a venue I really saw the potential and got a great feel for it. The actual execution of the day was average. Not the best and not the worst. It was advertised that the bridal suite would have mimosas. I didn’t have any bridesmaids but my daughter, mom, grandma, and wedding planner were with me in the bridal suite. We just wanted water but it was very hard to get even though it’s advertised as to have the mimosas included. The bartender said she knew nothing about it. It was really hot. I was sweating and so were the guests. Throughout the night I had to keep going up and asking for the next thing on the itinerary to be done such as dinner and cake cutting. The staff felt lifeless except for the two bartenders. At the end of the night there were confetti balloons that were popped and the confetti left on the floor from an independent decorator separate from the wedding planner. The guy in charge verbally attacked the wedding planner as she was the only one still there. She had explained that it wasn’t her responsibility bc it wasn’t. It was the decorator that should have cleaned up. He called me and left me a voicemail cursing me out. I still have it as proof. I called back and he immediately began yelling and cursing. I literally had to talk him down. I apologized for the confetti and it was cleaned up by the wedding planner. I would never recommend anyone to give there business to a place so willing to turn to violence at the first second of an issue arising. Pros: decently priced, bridal suite available, set up and tear down for you, open bar, bartenders were professional and fun, gives you time to set up anything personal beforehand Cons: Food was tasteless, some soggy, and some overcooked, unorganized staff, not willing to take wrinkles out of the table cloths, hot, difficult to work with, and person in charge verbally attacked myself and the wedding planner to the point that other people had to step in
