Entertaining Children During Weddings
Many people believe that weddings are "Adults Only". Let's look at the facts: many families have younger members that should attend! Be sure to add "Kid Friendly" activities and stations to keep the younger members occupied.
York & White Tip:
Include a childrens table for dinner. Cover this table with a white tablecloth and give each child a box of crayons or markers. Encourage children to color on the tablecloth and play games such as "tic-tac-toe". This will keep children busy for hours and also give you a lovely keepsake to remember!

~Weddings
~Corporate Events
~Baby Showers
~Anniversaries
~Birthdays
~And more!
Thanks to the amazing staff at The Signature Grand, the testimonials keep pouring in!
"My brother had his wedding here and it was magnificent. As part of the bridal party we were ensconced in privacy prior to the service. This place is well organized and it ran smoothly. I have attended business functions here and a cocktail party and would have never known how many other events occur in the same building at the same time had I not been to a variety of them." - Z.G.
"I wouldn't hesitate to have any event at Signature Grand. I've had corporate events there when I managed a company, I've attended different meetings there, and I've been to several weddings. It's somewhat factory-like in how they get hundreds of people served at once, but it's also fascinating. They have it down to a fine science, and the service is efficient and the food delicious. The facility itself is magnificent, and I'm never disappointed to receive an invitation to a function at Signature Grand." - Lynn B.
