| - "Oh, what a night, late December back in sixty three"... Actually, I can say what a night, but it was late February in 2017. Greenhouse Winery held their first adult prom wine event and it was a fun night out!
Not sure if its because it was an age-related, turn-back the clock opportunity, or that I just needed an anything goes kind of night. In any case, I think I had more fun at this prom night than I did at my own so many moons ago.
This review is centered on the night's event. The facility itself is quite lovely, inside and out, and was an absolute perfect setting for the evening.
The event was promoted as an adult prom party, complete with dinner, dancing, photo booth and wine tasting. ( no need to sneak alcohol into this prom!)
Since this was not exclusively a couples only event, I decided to turn this into a girl's night out. Time to blow off the dust on those dancing shoes!
I must admit, the closer this date approached, I begin to have mixed feelings about it being a lame affair. Their no-refund policy is probably a good idea for 2nd guessers like myself.
My moment of relief occurred as soon as we stepped foot inside. Laughter and excitement filled the air! It was fun to see everyone dressed up in their prom-wear. The meal was served buffet-style and was average, though nourishing. It was a little odd that they did not offer a second serving of anything. We didn't know it was a one trip only to the buffet so when we returned to get some of the food we didn't place on our plates the first time, we were denied. The four star review is directed toward the choice of caterer.
Overall, as stated earlier, it was a great night. New friendships and memories were formed, and the party vibe continued throughout the night. So much so, we had to remember to find our way home before the strike of midnight!
