The Lantana Reviews

My wedding was scheduled for September 26th and because of Covd had to be rescheduled. My coordinator was very understanding and worked with us on changing our dates.

My experience with The Lantana has been pleasant from our very first tour. My wedding coordinator Erika goes above and beyond my expectations and I know I can trust her with my vision and budget. She's knowledgeable, always welcoming of my many emails and phone calls and shows she's very passionate about her job. If you're shopping around do not hesitate to consider the lantana. I attended my cousin's Quince there and she and the venue was highly recommended by my aunt. The food which catered to our Latin culture was on point, service and overall convenience it's what drew us to book them for our wedding day and so far, I have not been disappointed. We ended up pushing our big day from November to next Summer because we don't want any restrictions surrounding Covid to be a factor in our wedding planning. Erika was transparent in giving me my options and putting my worries at ease, reassuring me that my big day will come and that we will celebrate bigger and better and it's a question of when and not if. I'm adding this here in case another bride reading this needs some reassurance as well, I know it can get discouraging at times. I can tell you from reading horror stories of other venues that I appreciate Erika and her team's willingness to work with me, no questions asked. You can book any event with The Lantana and trust that they will have your back.

Esther is the most sweetest caring and involved woman ive ever met! I cannot wait until she makes my fairy tale wedding come to life 7/10/2021

The venue has been super accommodating every step of the way. Esther is absolutely amazing and genuinely wants to help you make your day amazing. They help you every step of the way! The pandemic hit a month before the wedding and they let us change the date a couple times and kept our deposit and everything. They have been absolutely amazing and i can not recommend them enough.

Did everything I asked for! Have been to wedding here before but being the bride they listened to all my ideas. Esther reached out to me and always checked in. She made sure I had the wedding of my dream !

When my husband proposed to me last December I had no idea of the type of wedding that I was going to have nor did I have a date in mind. Finally in April, I went to Erika to help me plan a wedding in 6 months. At the time I thought it was an easy feat. Boy did I learn differently! I went to Erika with this mindset and she calmly told me that we could do this and the wedding would be beautiful - and she was right. She guided me through the planning process with a listening ear and plenty of patience, helping me to see that she understood everything that I was saying and offered advice when something wasn't quite right.
As I was planning my table setting, I was having trouble visualizing the setting. I am such a hands on person that I needed to see the setting and feel the linen that was going on the table. She went through the venue, located all of the items that I wanted to set the table up - linen and chairs - and we worked together and set up a beautiful table in the backroom of her office. That worked out perfectly and the table setting was exactly what I wanted. When I emailed her a few days later to change the colors of the napkins - once again, that was not a problem for her to do.
Throughout the entire process, Erika assured me that she would do whatever she needed to do to make sure that I was happy on my special day - and she meant it! With Erika, not only did I get a great wedding planner who loves her job and wants the best for everyone involved in the wedding planning process. I'll truly miss her warm hugs! Thanks for everything Erika!

After searching and searching we decided to trust The Lantana with our wedding day. It was hands down one of the best wedding decisions we made during our planning process. Erika was always available and although I knew I wasn’t the only bride she was juggling I always felt like the only bride. From customizing my package to deciding on a menu and choosing the decor I felt like her expertise and guidance made my planning so easy. The day of the wedding my room looked unbelievable, the food was raved by many and we felt welcome even at the end the staff was still joking and with a great attitude. This is what I expected and more from such a big investment. When shopping around don’t hesitate to book your wedding at The Lantana, you will be in great hands.

The lantana is a step ahead of the competition.they allow you create the wedding of your dreams all in one place all for one price .its one stop shopping at the lantana which just makes life so much easier.they will do just about anything you can think of and have some many ideas for you to prepare for your big day great service.the best in the business,please do yourself a favor and at least check this place out .

We got married at The Lantana in with the ceremony in the Mediterranean Room and the reception in the Cailey Ballroom. Erika was our planner and she was absolutely the best we could have ever asked for from the day we visited the venue through our big day over a year later. Erika was always responsive to our questions and concerns (okay, and freak-outs) along the way and the final production was perfect, we couldn't possibly thank her enough. We researched many venues in the area and The Lantana is an amazing value with a great selection of rooms for different sized events and budgets. All of the rooms look amazing as we got to see decorated events in each of them throughout our visits to the venue throughout the planning process. The staff at the wedding were awesome and our guests all raved about the venue in the weeks following the wedding. Thank you so much to Erika and everyone at The Lantana!

Finding the lantana was a blessing in disguise. It a gem that is worth for any bride to explore as an option. The Food is exceptional. All my guests loves the food. The staff especially Mrs. Patino (Erika) she goes mikes for her brides. She makes herself available even when she is on vacation. She is a pleasant person all together. She sold me on this place just after meeting her. Thank you Erika!!! Thank The lantana Chef and staff... for being a great team to work with us!!!

All I can say is Esther is the BEST thing that's happened to me during this wedding planning process. I live in FL and its beyond frustrating not being in the same state as your wedding. Esther is easy to work with and easy to get a hold of. I cant wait to meet her!

Esther and the entire team at The Lantana are wonderful to work with, from the first meeting and throughout the entire planning process, onto the night of the reception. We had the reception in the main ballroom and brought in a third party caterer to serve a traditional 8 course Chinese wedding banquet, which was a little out of the norm for them. The Lantana team worked very hard in understanding our culture and was very accommodating to all of our variety of requests. They worked so seamlessly with all of our vendors and made sure everything came together beautifully. They are great at communicating, and never made us stressed about venue stuff. We would highly recommend The Lantana for any type of event.

Erika and the staff at The Lantana exceeded my expectations. Thank you so much for such an excellent job!

Erika Patino was excellent helping us with every details and all the staff was very professional 100%
Thank you for let us hosting our beauty pageant at The Lantana.

This place was absoulty wonderful. I originally had booked another location but switched over to The Lanatna. I was able to do so much more for my daughter's Quince. The food was absoulty delicious. The service from that was given from Erica herself was phenomenal. Went above and beyond to hell us make one of the biggest event in my daughter's life perfect! I wouldn't have had it any other way.

I do not have the words to express my gratitude to Esther and everyone at The Lantana. Our entire wedding was absolutely perfect from start to finish and Esther made the planning process completely stress-free! My parents had their reception at The Lantana 29 years ago and I am so thrilled that we decided to have ours there as well. The room was beautiful and they even created a s’mores bar just for this chocolate and marshmallow loving bride!

I can not say enough wonderful things about our experience at The Lantana!! We worked with Erika and her fabulous team to plan our wedding ceremony and reception. From my very first meeting with Erika, I felt so comfortable ..... she is such an amazing person to work with and absoluty the best..... she was always patient, courteous, fun to be around and responsive to my emails, phone calls, etc. Thank you Erika and her team at the Lantana, you made wedding planning a breeze knowing you had everything under control!!

We had some doubts but we where told not to worry about anything, truly we had nothing to worry about The night was amazing. A special thank you to the wait staff for all your patients and hospitality. Thank you for a beautiful wedding we are very thankful that everything went well.

Where do I even begin to start? The Lantana was my first choice of Venue ever since I first toured it (mind you I had visited 3 other venue's before). Meeting Esther was the best thing that ever happened to me during this whole wedding process! She helped me plan my wedding within 6 months. The amount of time, dedication, and love Esther puts in her clients is amazing. She truly was an angel. The day of my wedding was PERFECT thanks to the whole Lantana team the day of August 12th. They truly go above and beyond to make sure you are relaxed, having fun, and well taken care of. Why go anywhere else when you can get it all at this venue? From Esther, to amazing employees, really great food, and an overall beautiful venue. If i have any other event, i will be sure to go here, and I will not forget to recommend family and friends to plan their event with Esther and the whole Lantana team. Thank you so much for everything! Truly an unforgettable experience.

My husband and I went to see The Lantana as an option for our wedding reception as my parents had their wedding reception there 31 years ago. We immediately fell in love and felt like we were in caring, professional arms! Esther was a gem from the very beginning and was helpful in planning each detail. She and the staff made us feel comfortable and competent in the wedding planning process. Everyone at The Lantana made our wedding reception flow smoothly and look beautiful! The decor was set up exactly the way I envisioned. Our maitre'd was amazing! She was always around to help and guide us as needed. Our guests continue to rave about the decor, service, food, and energy of the room! We are so grateful to the team at The Lantana for helping us make our dream wedding come true!

The Lantana was the perfect venue for our wedding reception! The beautiful antique decor, spacious facilities, and kind staff all enclosed in a very fair price made this choice unbeatable. Would highly recommend The Lantana for couples looking to have an elegant wedding venue without overpaying. They were very responsive to our every need and unique requests. A special thanks to Esther Sheridan, whom at our first meeting, we immediately realized was almost single-handedly enough of a reason to choose The Lantana. She will take care of everything you need!

All the service at Lantana was terrific, the food, and the cake were delicious, the attention to the tables excellent, the bartender very nice and attentive. Everything was amazing, there is always a person to help you out! an Awesome experience, My family and I recommend 100% to do any event at Lantana.

Thank You!

The Lantana is my venue of choice. It offers the ambience, a choice of large ballrooms or smaller rooms, ample parking, affordability and great service. My birthday party, retirement party and best friends daughter 's wedding were held at The Lantana. For each event the rooms looked spectacular, the wait Staff and food was fabulous. I will continue to select The Lantana because Ester and Staff are willing to make sure the event is memorable and beautiful . Thank you The Lantana for making each one of my events so special.

I absolutely had the best experience working with the Lantana Staff, specifically Esther Sheridan. Esther made planning my son's party so easy. She was so flexible and offered me so many different options to help me stay within my established budget for the event. The venue and food were also fantastic. The Lantana staff are very professional and attentive to customer needs. I would highly recommend Lantana to all my family and friends for their future events!

Great staff and service. The food is delicious and very tasteful. Every one in the party enjoy the food. Thank you Esther for all your support in making my daughter's birthday a wonderful day.
