The Colony Hotel Palm Beach Island Florida Wedding & Party Venue

                              So we're finally getting back to writing after a hectic month of performing at numerous venues. Many of the venues we play at are ones we've been to previously but it's always nice to go back and experience even more. This past weekend we had the opportunity to work at the well known Colony Hotel on the island of Palm Beach. It overall was a very relaxing, fun and upscale experience. Definitely a 5 star setup with a great location and easy access. 

                             The Colony Hotel in Palm Beach, Florida is definitely the high end, elegant and classy wedding or party venue you and your guests would enjoy. The facility features a gorgeous setting with pool, patio area, tiki style bar and lounge near the pool area. You can have your ceremony, cocktail hour and reception all in one place. There is an area right on the lawn with a nice walkway to the side. You can setup an archway and chairs right near the reception area. The outside lounge (which is covered) is available for your guests to have drinks and snacks for the cocktail hour. Heading into the main ballroom there are doors in two different areas with a foyer area, place for a photo booth and restrooms right as you walk in the main doors. The reception hall also features a covered drive up area for your guests to be dropped off. There's valet parking available to assist you too. 
                           We know how much you enjoy the pictures so we try to document for you when we go to our destination. Below is a picture of the ballroom / reception hall. The overall setup is great and can accommodate a comfortable 75-100 people possibly more. The dance floor is right in the center of the room and tables are all around the the dance floor. The staff was a pleasure to work with and were friendly and organized. We always like working with a friendly staff, it makes our job fun and enjoyable. 

                               
                            This is one side of the ballroom and the other side looks about the same. The bridal party or presentations can be setup to be introduced right outside the doors just in front of the dance floor to the left in the picture. There's plenty of power for the DJ or musician inside the reception and outside for the ceremony and cocktail hour. We do have a recommendation as far as the room goes. Some uplighting in any color of your choice would be a nice feature to  add to the room. You can set the theme and tone for the affair with a great color choice. 

                             Drum Roll please......................And our overall review of the Colony Hotel in the island of Palm Beach, Florida. We give it a 9.8 out of 10! That is one of the best scores we've ever give. We had the opportunity to try the food and it was very good, the access to get equipment and party props for your event is super easy! It is about 10 minutes from I-95 and about 15 minutes from Palm Beach International Airport. So for your guests its an easy trip east from the downtown area. The staff was very friendly and great in handling the overall timeline of events. One very minor thing we will mention which is only an opinion is we're not big into valet parking. We normally like to handle our own vehicle while loading and unloading equipment. But it's a nice courtesy to those dropping guests off. The musicians may not be much for valet or possibly don't care. Other than that our experience was excellent! If you're looking for a tropical, elegant and relaxing venue The Colony hotel in Palm Beach is an excellent choice. Oh yes..... It's right down the street from the beach! Get your tan on before the wedding or party!

Questions or comments, feel free to leave them and I'll be happy to respond.

                                Normally in my postings I have been telling you about some great places to have your wedding, sweet 16, birthday, dance, Mitzvah and corporate event. There are numerous great locations to have your special event but those who are on a budget, which is of course many people, can always go for the clubhouse rental in your local community. There are hundreds upon hundreds of clubhouses in gated communities and residential areas. Even if you don't have one in your community you may know somebody who's a close friend or relative who has a clubhouse in their community.                                                                                       When setting up to have an event there are 3 main factors that your guests will remember that day. The number 1 thing people remember is who performed the entertainment at the event. It's totally true! I'm sure you've heard people say before, "Oh the DJ at the wedding or party wa

 We have a classic venue that's stood the test of time and has been a party and wedding event place for decades. The city of Jensen Beach, an extension of Stuart Florida is a beautiful town on the intracoastal waterway in the treasure coast. There's shops, restaurants, bars and lots of cottages and beach homes. Directly on the water and we mean right on the waterway with docks and boats surrounding it is the Dolphin Bar & Shrimp House. This is a seafood restaurant and event hall that has a very oldschool boating and dockside feel to it.
