Wedding Date 18-02-2023
We used Orchard Events & Catering for our rehearsal dinner and welcome party the Friday before our wedding. They had an internal team change but their new Director picked things up right where the other left off! They were very flexible with us and met for multiple tours/conversations. They offer two great spaces to host your event, and allowed us to upgrade to the larger space mid way through our quote process after they realized there was an opening (they had a cancelation). This came at a cost - was not free to upgrade. However, the outdoor \"barn\" or under tent area was incredible. They had heaters, great drink service and the food was awesome! They offer add ons such as a DJ, microphones, open bar, etc. so you can customize your event. They were very flexible again with us while dealing with the bill because we had two sets of parents paying for separate portions of the evening.

The Orchard did a great job meeting our expectations. We had a few challenges along the way but they always stepped up and made our special occasion exactly what we hoped for!The venue is beautiful after dark too! If you haven't been there, check it out. Lovely patio spaces with beautiful trees and twinkling lights. A rare find in central Phoenix!

I hosted a 70th birthday party for my mom at The Orchard and would highly recommend this venue. The entire process was seamless- Michelle was wonderful to work with. So communicative and helpful! The space was absolutely gorgeous and magical. Beautiful greenery and lights, and the table was so beautifully set. We opted not to purchase additional floral, and I'm glad because we didn't need it! The succulents and gold chargers were so pretty! The food was absolutely incredible. The apps were perfect- beautiful cheese/fruit trays and bruschetta. The filet at dinner was hands down one of the best I've had, anywhere. The garlic herb butter was delish. Everyone at the table was raving about it. Our server Andrea was fantastic- a true pro. She was friendly, efficient and made sure we were taken care of every minute of the event.I would highly recommend the Orchard to anyone looking to host an event. It was a truly magical night!

It's no surprise why the \"Time of Our Lives\" song was the last one we selected for our wedding day at Luci's at the Orchard - it really and truly was that. Thanks to the incredible service, passion, and knowledge that Michelle and her entire team at the Orchard brought to our celebration, it is still a day we look back to with gratitude and love.From the very beginning of working with Luci's to the final moments of the evening, every single person involved - from Michelle herself, to the florist, DJ, bartenders, etc. - made our wedding feel so incredibly special. I already loved the location prior to selecting it as our wedding venue, tucked away into a local Phoenix neighborhood the way that it is, but watching it come to life for our event made it even more special to us. It was also fantastic being able to have the ceremony and the reception all in one place, and the team made it look seamless in how they transitioned from one part of the event to the next. Michelle and Pam the florist were excellent in working with us to bring our vision of colors and overall vibe to life, especially with how laidback and fun we wanted to keep things. Don't even get me started on the food, drinks, and the desserts - they make everything in house at Luci's and the quality comes through in every detail. We especially loved the custom welcome cocktail they created for us. Don't skimp on desserts, either - I'm still dreaming of them, months later. There are so many other elements I could share, but the most important point is this: Luci's at the Orchard is a local neighborhood oasis that has so much to offer, no matter your event. They treat every logistic with the same time, energy, and heart that you're likely pouring into the planning. Can't recommend them enough!
