Clients Testimonials

We had a wonderful experience with Jones Crossing for our wedding reception! Olivia and Tricia were both amazing at guiding us through the process and also being there to answer any questions we had, no matter how minuscule they were. They worked with us from day one to make sure everything was perfect. Their experience really shows, as they brought up multiple things for us to consider that we didn’t think of ourselves. It was a great experience to work with them both. The staff at the reception were also fantastic. Their food and drink choices were excellent and we were thrilled with how everything turned out. We had so many guests come up and tell us how amazing the reception was!
