Wedding Food Packages

“The Peninsula Room is the ideal venue for any couple whose priorities are food & atmosphere. Our food selection was very important to us so when we saw that they prepare all the food on site & offer plated options we were sold. Every meal was delicious, & all our guests agreed. From cocktail hour to late night pizzas, the Peninsula Room did an amazing job. Many of our guests said that this venue & the experience as a whole made it the best wedding they had ever attended.” - Amy
