From the reviews
The event hall is very nice and spacious. I cannot say enough about the staff . very helpful..most courteous. The loading dock area for larger items makes it exceptionally friendly. And the staff at the loading area is remarkable.. friendly.. courteous and kind. Always willing to assist. They are great.
I attended The Newly Elected Mayor- Mary Sheffield Inargural Ball and it was a very elegant event, I'm so happy I was able to attend this historical event. 🖤🤍❤️🙏🎉
Beautiful venue! The staff was amazing and we had a great experience at the event we were at here.
Visited for the first time. Very nice location, beautiful lawn, good view of river.
Getting married at The Icon
Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
