Social Event Testimonials

"No comments for improvement. Andrea was very helpful and accommodating. Venue (La Belle Époque) was perfect."

"Everything went very well and we are delighted with how the event turned out. My son enjoyed it as did our guests. The food was very good, and the service was outstanding. Your staff were on top of everything, always available, extremely courteous and professional, and they were alert to every detail."

"We cannot imagine that this night could have been more enjoyable! Andrea Burleigh told us to rely on her for all aspects of the evening and she certainly lived up to her promise! The real measure of a great party is the response from the guests; ours could not stop raving about the venue and the food. It was certainly a night to remember…thank you to everyone at The Academy of Spherical Arts for making this such a special evening for our family."

"I just wanted to tell you how AWSOME everything went on Saturday. It couldn't have gone better and I heard nothing but rave reviews about the venue, food and staff. Belen, thank you so much for being so helpful with the surprise and having everything so organized. It was such a relief to walk in there on Saturday and not have to worry about any details. You were a pro at handling my bride-zilla moments and I will be sure to recommend you and your venue for my friends in the future. I also can't say enough good things about Bill. He was very quick to make sure that all our needs were well looked after and he did an amazing job executing the evening. Everyone working that night truly made the evening a very special one and it couldn't have gone better. Many many many thanks!"

"Saturday night was perfect. The room was set up beautifully….loved how you set up the Midnight Snack Table, especially for the fruit. Tables were beautiful. We have had several people say that it was the best 'wedding food' they have ever had, though a few people said that they found the soup a bit peppery. We really partied!! Your staff was terrific and Bill managed everything well. Thank you for everything. It couldn't have been better."

"It was the best party I had ever planned. The food and the service exceeded my expectations. The room was beautiful. All my guests had an amazing time. Thank you"

"We had an amazing time at our party. With the help of the staff and Andrea our coordinator we were able to pull off a "surprise" 40th birthday for my husband. The DJ they recommended was excellent. The tarot card reader was soo popular I didn't even get to see her!! We received many compliments on the atmosphere at The Academy and many questions on how I ever found the place. Excellent job all around! The best part was that we were also able to have our younger children there with us to enjoy their Dad's party. They were amazed their Mom and Dad and our friends go dance and "party" like that. Highly recommend The Academy for any type of party!"
