"We had a bat mitzvah evening reception the first weekend in May. We had 165 guests with a {56+,55 and 20,11+,10 and under}=(16%, 57%, 12%, 14%} mix. The run of show started with photos at 530pm and ran through 11pm. The locations is epic. The secured entrance and long curving driveway up to the hall are extremely welcoming. You feel like you are stepping into a storybook. There is not a bad place to take a picture on the extremely well-manicured and spacious property. The inside spaces each present a unique vibe. The bar, passed h'or deourves area is intimate with ample seating for private conversation. The common areas get full but not crowded. The hall itself is amazingly intimate and large at the same time. The decorator has gone to lengths to place various sized lamps and decor at different heights to create a wonderful big ballroom feel without it presenting as overwhelming. Groups 50 to 250 will find it equally satisfying. The food was INCREDIBLE. Everyone raved. The menu has diverse and spot on. The foods made sense, the presentation was meticulous and you can tell this place runs from the top-down by people who genuinely want to give you the experience of a lifetime."

"We had our reception at Smoke Rise and it was absolutely amazing and incredible! The grounds are absolutely beautiful, welcoming and great for photos. We loved being at a country club venue so we can return for a nice dinner post the reception for special events and anniversaries. The staff took great care of our guests and we couldn't be more thankful. We had multiple guests tell us how wonderful they were and raved about the cocktail hour and dinner food (everyone loved the gyros!). Working with Kelly and her team was my favorite part of the wedding process - she made it so easy and fun. Kelly is extremely personable and fun to work with - and most importantly made the planning easy! Any question I had, Kelly had a solution too. Thank you Kelly! The reception space had ample room for a 10 musician band, 125 guests and a live painter. There's so many options to take photos outside and indoors. We absolutely loved having our wedding at Smoke Rise!"
