"Great Wedding Reception"
Posted on 9/22/2011 by An Eventective User from Hollis Center, ME
I attended a wedding at the Roost last August. Do not judge this venue by the outside! The interior is very rustic with lots of wood, and a balcony going all the way around a dance floor that can also double as an area for more tables. In our case, we had the tables all around the dance floor, and everyone was able to focus on the bride's dance with her father, as well as the rest of the dancing that took place. I forget who the DJ was, but it was easy for him to set up and sounded great. All in all, I'd recommend the Roost to anyone that just wanted to have a great time with family and friends for an event like a wedding reception. It's a very versatile hall, and the catering is done on-site.
"Perfect banquet venue"

After taking too long to locate a space for our annual banquet, we began to panic. Eventdetective found a nearby but relatively unknown spot for us in South Portland called "Events on Broadway". Our initial meeting with the owner was favorable, and we were impressed at their willingness to craft a menu that fit our budget rather than giving us a list of fixed options. On the night of the event, everything went perfectly! The meal was on time, the food was excellent, and the service was superb. We would highly recommend Events on Broadway based upon our experience!
