3 Reasons You’ll Love the Grand on Foster

Grand on Foster is an exceptional venue that’s beautifully designed. It’s almost impossible to take a bad photo here, with so many unique and exciting elements inside and outside. If you’re not already in love with Grand on Foster, here are three reasons to swoon.

 

1. The Industrial Chic Vibe is Perfect for Photos

The Grand on Foster’s industrial-chic vibe is perfect for photos. Brick accent walls play off ornate gold-framed mirrors and elegant chandeliers for unforgettable pictures in the reception area. Cut the cake in front of the gorgeous stained-glass window and dance the night away on the spacious dance floor. The entire reception space has just the right lighting for posed and candid photos.

These same design elements carry into the ceremony site, where exposed beams add to the drama and the draped curtains create a romantic, ethereal space. Ceremony photos are breathtaking, especially under the hanging chandelier.

The parlor area is ideal for pre-ceremony pictures and is elegant in every way. Gold leaf mirrors, comfortable seats and a Persian rug make you feel right at home. There’s plenty of room for everyone in the bridal party and your photographer (that’s me!).

The interior is impressive, but the courtyard is where you’ll take truly magical photos. The fountain and greenery against the rustic brick walls make for some dreamy photos. There are plenty of archways and secret passages to sneak off to and get some unique shots of the bride and groom.

 

 

2. The Grand on Foster is a Full-Service Venue

No one wants a stressful wedding, right? Of course not. The Grand on Foster has rave reviews from newlyweds that loved the entire experience from start to finish. First and foremost, the wedding coordinator is there to help you and is attentive to the following details:

• Takes care of every last detail

• Responds to calls quickly

• Ensures everything is set up perfectly

However, that’s just the start of the magic that awaits you.  This full-service venue knows that the bridal party and bride need their own space to get ready. The Parlor offers elegance and beauty with Persian rugs, a massive conference table and gold leaf mirrors.

When you book the venue, Grand on Foster provides all of the Chiavari chairs and tables. Your fee includes the cleanup and setup. Trust me. There’s nothing more stressful than a bride and groom trying to clean up the entire venue when everyone else leaves. You also have the option to choose from numerous additional services, such as:

• Vendor list recommendations

• In-house bar

• Lighting and sound equipment

You also have multiple event space options to choose from to truly make the venue your own.

 

 

3. Multiple Event Spaces

Event spaces can accommodate up to 500 guests, and there are multiple spaces available:

• Courtyard: Brick walls, new renovations and balconies await in the courtyard. Stand in front of the 14-foot fountain and bring 300 guests along for the fun.

• Orleans Ballroom: Intimate and charming, the Orleans offers a Brazilian Cherry dance floor, imported chandeliers and beautiful moldings.

• St. Charles Ballroom: Early 20th Century American Gothic styles meld perfectly with the Italian furnishings, pine flooring, stained glass windows and charming interior of the St. Charles ballroom.

• Upstairs Ballroom: Draped balconies, five brick fireplaces and views of the courtyard await in the upstairs ballroom, which offers some of the best photo opportunities to enjoy.
