The Boulevard First and foremost I'm not the type to write reviews but In this case it was necessary. When I first looked at this place for a potential wedding venue I thought it was renovated nicely and very spacious. When my husband and I decided to make a deposit we signed a contract with some guy named Edwin. Everything seemed to be going well until he was no longer working with the company. I was not aware of this until I called a few months later to arrange a payment. I find out there was new management. I was a little annoyed that no one sent an email in regards to this change/issue to let me know I would be working with someone else. Now this is where it gets interesting. I get a call from this woman named Melissa who is the event planner for the establishment with no experience in weddings what so ever and tells me she will be working with me, I said ok no problem let's set up an appointment to meet to go over everything and make a payment she agreed. The day comes and I send her a message at 10am to confirm our 12pm appointment and I get no response until 3pm saying that she couldn't make the appointment happen. I'm already upset because that is unprofessional and unacceptable. So we rescheduled. The day comes where we finally meet and she does not have anything prepared. My contract is not on her desk she was annoyed, had an attitude. She looked like she hated her job. I told her my concerns and all and she said she would take care of it. The months leading up to the wedding we're a disaster. She didn't know how to coordinate or arrange anything. She was the rudest person in that establishment. My husband and I paid $15,000 and she gave us a hard time right up to the day of the wedding.The food was absolutely awful, disgusting, not fresh but frozen. The crab cakes taste fishy and salty. The pigs on a blanket were frozen from a bag. The drinks were good but served in plastic cups. The service besides the bartenders and Sonia were awful. They did not know anything of what was going on. I had multiple of our guests asks the service staff some questions and they were oblivious and said they didn't know. Overall this was the worst venue. I will never do an event there again. for my wedding and honestly if it was not for SONIA who was the best person ever I would have had a nervous breakdown. I'm sad, dissatisfied, disappointed, that they would have a person with no experience handle a wedding and get paid for it at that. Please follow your gut and if you see red flags act on them. I don't recommend this place to anyone.

Event, was not the BLVD but their HUDSON room. Not as done up as their grand ballroom but space was enough for what we needed. Wait Staff worked well with what they had. Lack of communication by the management had dinner arrive later than expected which caused dinner to be later. The lead Host was awesome!! She understood what we needed and wanted and my dedication to making this event a dream come true for my cousin. NOW... The management team, if they want to even be called that. Their poor professionalism, lack of communication, lack of understanding, The way they reneged on something already booked and agreed upon. Change of management should not change a contract of items promised. Their less than gracious attitudes about stuff they clearly know nothing about was astonishing. They didn't bother to consider that they were not dealing with just another DJ, but someone who has taken time learn the craft, learn what it is to run an event and learned what can and cant be done in the interest of guest safety. Just because you own the place doesn't mean you know how to RUN the place. It was frustrating, dealing with the management team. This team clearly did not communicate with each other, because since I was getting so much push back, I decided to keep all communication in writing, and at the end of the night I was glad I did. Because the manager who arrived to the venue clearly had no idea what was going on and came at me with all this arrogance trying to school me on my equipment just to be put in his place by me having written permission by his higher up. Just because you don't do your homework, don't think I don't. This event was a labor of love, and not about money because this was my gift to my cousin as it was her birthday. If this were a client, this place would have caused a great disservice to their client. Their refusal to work us, was a clear indication that these people do not care about the client. We were willing to go out of our way to show them live and take full liability if something were to happen prior to the event. But they could not be bothered. An opportunity to step up for the client and they rather not. Bottom line Screw this venue, I wont be doing another event there. Venue was decent with great potential but management was not worth the time and effort it took to communicate with them.
