I got married on the rooftop of the Landmark Convention Center on the 20th of August. It was an amazing experience. They understand the stress of planning a wedding and were very patient with me throughout the entire process. They handled the linens, chair covers, and ties and did all in a low pressure atmosphere. They also catered the wedding. The food was amazing. Instead of a tiny tasting, they held a huge open house and previewed all of the items on their menu. It was terrific! They were very helpful and offered good suggestions in an effort to lower my stress. We would definitely get married there again and will think of them in planning future events.

I ditto the post below. I too got married outside on the roof this summer, and it was amazing! Beautiful views of the sound and Mt Rainer. Let me start by telling you, its a great value. Especially when you start looking around at what other venues charge to rent the space. The food is very resonable as well. I worked with Michael and he is wonderful. You just need to trust what he tells you. He will be completely honest, and will come up with different ideas to help you cut costs and save if you are on a budget (like myself.) You never feel like he is taking advantage of you, and trying to run you dry. Thats what I liked most about him. He can come up with all sorts of different ideas to make anything work.The compliment I got several times was that my food was " the best wedding food I have ever had!" I heard that several times. I opted for the chicken mascarpone buffet, and then had the live pasta chefs making hot fresh pasta. It was absolutely delish! I also went to the big fancy food tasting event, and it was wonderful. They had rooms and rooms full of food, and you are able to try literally everything they offer. Everything! Thats how I decided on the pasta station, because they even had all there different "live station" options at the tasting event. Im glad I decided to go to that, rather than do a private tasting. They have a few different bar options, and we went with an open bar. It was great, we even added a bar outside on the deck which I highly reccommend. The bar outside was not a little side bar either, it was the full set up. The only negative at all about my whole experience, is they ran out of Bud Light 2 hours before my open bar closed. We had plently of regular Budwieser left, so Im sure had I warned them that my crew will drink more Budlight, then I am certain they would have stocked more.. But when its open bar, you would hope that wouldnt happen. Again, probably the only negative thing I can say.I used the DJ that the venue uses, and it was a great price. I was a little scared to be honest, I didnt hear from the DJ til the week before. Music is really important to me, and will make or break your reception. But, he actually ended up saving the day. My slideshow music wouldnt play from my computer, and he was able to find all the exact music and played it exactly perfect with the show. The DJ plays there often which is a great benefit. He knows the ins n outs of the place, and what works well, what doesnt. So I would reccommend using their DJ service, and you will save a ton doing so.

The catering here was excellent. I heard all night how good the food was. The only downfall at the Landmark was the dressing quarters for the bride was not very private on the same floor as the Ionic and the Gothic room. Other than that I had a great experience.

The staff is completely professional and organized. Being in the hospitality industry, I really appreciated this. Our menu was over the top, and they mastered every Asian dish we requested. The amount of food for the price was fantastic, and the servers were great. The facility is older, but the Grand Ballroom was just perfect for the number of guests we had. Parking is a little bit of an issue, especially when they have multiple events happening, but we had the option of buying parking spots for our VIP guests just across the street. I would have my reception & catering done again at the Tacoma's Landmark Convention Center.

The staff was professional and friendly, the food was SUPERB...my family is still talking about it - 4 years later....and the location was unique and spectacular. The staff was very helpful in the special requests we had, and managed to accomodate most of them! They had an open house where we had an opportunity to taste the food, see the different rooms, and browse some of their recommended vendors. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience with their staff, and would highly recommend them for your special occasion!
