We had our wedding just over a week ago for about 85 guests & it was truly a great experience. From nearly the very start we had Clea take over the coordination of our wedding - super friendly, speedy responses to our many questions, great organization all the way, reminders for deadlines, SUPER accommodating to all of our requests. HIGHLY recommend her, we are forever grateful to her for making this as smooth as it possibly could have been.

The food & staff were excellent! No complaints from any of my guests about the food nor the wait staff! The bar man was AMAZING & so so kind!! Every time my husband or I came up to the bar he was very attentive to our needs. Truly made a difference to have a friendly & smiley face behind the bar! To the kitchen staff/waiting staff, everything came out with great timing & was truly excellent! Generous portions, great taste, perfect temperatures, smiling faces - all in all the kitchen/wait staff truly impressed us!

The DJ was also excellent, on the spot thinking for transitions between our first dance & the second father/daughter, mother/son dance (due to a day-of change of plans). Music was great! Everyone was really impressed with the song choices that made us all sing-along & dance the night away! No notes (pun intended)!

Overall the experience was great, the only down side was one staff member who I believe might have been in charge of the staff & ensuring the evening went according to plan. She was very friendly but throughout the evening came to me about'potential' issues that never came to fruition & put a damper on my evening at multiple occasions. The most frustrating one for me was right after cutting my wedding cake, she came to tell me that the TWO cakes that were to be served to my guests (serving 110 total guests) MIGHT not be enough to serve my 85 guests. This was a shock to me as I expected we would be able to offer some to the staff but none-the-less, I told her if need be we can serve the wedding cake, which did not end up happening. By the end of the evening I had TWO full cakes to bring home - my wedding cake & the smaller cake that was to be served to my guests (minimum 20 people) that had not even been opened or cut into. When she told me it was the full cake I offered that she should take some for the staff & she told me'oh no - we already had some' which I proceeded to say'Are you sure? Did you take enough? You can take more' & she replied'oh no - we've had MORE than enough'. After some reflection I really would suggest that this individual should be more conscious about bringing up potential problems to the bride &/or groom because this put an unnecessary damper on an important moment in the evening, & it was all for nothing. I understand being cautious but in these events it is important to think before acting & maybe taking a moment to reflect whether it truly is a problem & should be flagged or wait & see what would happen without having to worry the bride & groom about a problem that is not a problem. Additionally, while we were all having fun on the dance floor, she pulled me over to let me know one of my guests should'drink some water & slow down on the alcohol' I was just trying to enjoy my evening so I went to said guest (my husbands brother) & let him know (he is a father of three & was just enjoying the evening to let loose which he never can) & this caused a big commotion & finished with him & his wife leaving the wedding early. When I asked if he had done anything she told me'no, we just want to avoid getting to the point that something would happen'. I understand this, but once again it put a damper on our evening for a'potential problem' that never ended up being a problem. It is a wedding, people let loose & get drunk - if this is to be avoided maybe they should consider putting a limit on the bar or consumptions per individual but I think that might affect some bookings.

Overall, the evening was great despite the small dampers & highly recommend L'Ambroisie!

The venue was amazing. The location itself is beautiful, the staff were all incredibly friendly & professional. The food was delicious. We had a wedding of over 100 people & everyone had the most wonderful time. Our wedding coordinator Alexandra was fantastic & helped us out at every stage of the process. She was very accommodating to our asks, super friendly, very professional, & a joy to work with. We will not stop recommending this place to anyone we know who is getting married.
Thank you for everything, it was truly an unforgettable experience!
