Had to work a dual function here as a security guard. Although it is hard to locate the driveway to this facility... Once you DO locate it**, there is a lot of parking, and the outside grounds are beautiful. The grass is impeccably maintained and the gazebo is cute as well as the bocce ball area in the back is impeccably well maintained. The inside is also incredibly gorgeous. This staff is incredibly sweet. I just can't say enough good things about this place. I love it!!! ** To find this place, you literally need to look for the McDonald's on one side and the actual sign to Dante Event Center on the other side. The driveway is extremely narrow and is in between these two things.

Professional staff and wonderful venue! Booked Dante Event Center for my May 2025 wedding (90 guests) - used the outdoor lawn/gazebo for the ceremony and the Venetian room for the reception. Events Manager was extremely responsive with responding to questions throughout the planning period. Clear and transparent written contract and policies (related to outside catering, booking, etc) made the contracting process absolutely seamless. It was also helpful that Dante Event Center provided a list of preferred vendors for reference purposes - I do not recommend booking DJayTwitch (Matt Turner) due to his unprofessionalism the day of our wedding. While the Events Manager does not provide comprehensive ‘day of coordinator’ services, the Events Manager did help keep some aspects of the wedding day moving smoothly (e.g., spacing of wedding party during wedding processional, directing caterer, confirming bar tab, etc) which was helpful. Also worked with Dante Event Center staff to design 3 specialty cocktails (including a mocktail) for the cocktail hour / reception which were extremely delicious! Due to Dante Event Center policies, only one bartender was present which resulted in some long lines during some portions of the event. Would definitely recommend booking the Dante Event Center for your special event (just be prepared to wait 3-4 weeks to receive your security deposit back).

On 11/26/23 we celebrated our 10th anniversary at the Dante Club. It was so beautiful. Everyone that was involved, Annah, Jennifer and the servers were wonderful. We had a nice time.

My wife and I had our wedding at Dante Event Center on Sept. 2nd and it was absolutely amazing. From the day we went in for a consultation over a year before our wedding, Annah helped us with everything we needed, worked with our schedules to make sure we could come in for tastings and helped us make a list of all of the things we needed to plan out for the day. She helped day-of as our event coordinator and made sure everything happened on schedule, always checking with us to ensure we were satisfied. The food and even our cake were also made by staff at Dante, and it was worth every penny. Jennifer did a great job capturing exactly what we wanted for a dessert spread and matched the theme of our wedding perfectly with her designs. And then came dinner. We had tasted and picked our menu selection ahead of time, but I swear it was even better during the reception than it was during our tastings. Every one of our guests commented on the quality of the food, and the chef made sure to set us a plate on the sweetheart table so we didn't miss the passed hors d'oeuvres from cocktail hour. To top it off, Dante was far more affordable than many other places we looked at without sacrificing any of the quality. Can't recommend this place enough, thank you again!

This place is amazing 😍❣️ The staff is second to none, they go the second and third mile to meet and exceed all of your needs. They are super thoughtful and get to know their guest. When you come back, they remember you and are prepared to serve you again without your having to tell them your order again. Impressive indeed! I cannot say enough good things about this place and would encourage you to definitely put them at the top of your event list. Give them a call first! Bartenders were super friendly, made the effort to remember your drink order, they were very kind to everyone and made each drink to order. She even added extra cherries to my Shirley Temple 😍.
