I had to check out the Bridal Showcase. We stopped in on our way home. There was so much to see! Everyone had wondered ideas on pictures, music, decorations, dresses, food and Hotels. The Francis's Event Center is a great place to have a wedding and reception. Ten stars

I was at an event there over the weekend. From the gazebo looking in the venue was gorgeous but the banquet room had holes in the walls. It is not at all handicapped accessible. There wasn't a ramp and just 2 handicapped parking spots.

Very nice for meetings and events. There is a large parking lot off street (just off S. Revere & Arapahoe). Our company has bi-weekly meetings there. The room we use is always clean, they provide water and coffee and the restrooms are just off of the meeting space. Recommend if you have meetings, events or get togethers and need indoor or outdoor space.

Perfect venue for my daughters 6/1/2019 wedding and reception. We could not be more pleased with every detail. From the amazing communication with Sonja for over a year ahead of time, a wonderful outdoor gazebo for the ceremony, and classy, accommodating spaces to celebrate indoors, who could ask for more? Oh, but yet there is more! Amazing food prepared onsite that our guests could not stop raving about, wonderful staff who were so attentive on our special day, plus the perfect location, which was convenient for everyone. You just can't go wrong with this venue!!

The Franciscan Event Center, Thank you, Sonja, Staff and The Personal Touch Catering for an outstanding job in hosting my daughter and Son-in-law wedding June 2019. We visited many locations while searching for a venue in the early planning and once we met Sonja and saw the venue, we were in love and sold on The Franciscan Event Center located in Centennial. My daughter knew that was where she wanted to celebrate her wedding. The place is gorgeous, the staff is terrific, the food - amazing. My family and friends thought I got a second mortgage to give my only daughter her white sand beach wedding of her dreams, but it was actually reasonable. They have so many options available and kept your budget in mind. Not to mention they were the most affordable venue I checked into. They have truly made it easy for the bride. They are absolutely terrific, professional, helpful, sweet, caring, supportive, and help/guide us through every step along the way. Lots of decor onsite to choose from at no extra cost. Mix and match with your own to truly make it unique. Set up and cleanup is included in the price. And let me talk about the food. My guests raved about how delicious it was and the food presentation was gorgeous. We had 160 guests attend the wedding, not only did the staff cater to the wedding party and family they also catered to each guest going to every table and asking the guests if they needed anything. The bartender was very personal and knew every person's name as they came back for refills. Sonja worked with the wedding planner, the chaplain, the photographer and the DJ to create a wonderful experience, great food, stress free event. The atmosphere was so calming and beautiful; perfect setting for pictures in their beautiful marble gazebo, waterfall scenery and outdoor patio. I highly recommend The Franciscan Event Center for anyone seeking a place to host any event! Thank you to all of the staff for a job well DONE!!!Carl PiazzaFather of the Bride

We had a large training of close to 175 people over two days. The staff was attentive, detailed and helped us to get the feel we wanted. I will definitely be back and I highly recommend working with Sonja and her team.

The main room is a good size set up nicely. The servers were friendly and efficient. The buffet was just ok. I definitely recommend this place. The audio/ Visual equipment was very good too.

Our non-profit held an event at Franciscan Event Center for 200 people with a sit-down dinner. We were totally pleased. It was summer and the covered patio and garden area were fantastic for drinks and appetizers. Staff members were wonderful and very helpful-Daniel, Raj, & Jackie for set-up. Guests raved about the beautiful setting. We are booking for next year's event.

Phenomenal all around. The venue is perfect. Both inside and outside, the staff is absolutely great. Friendly, very focused on our questions, had the answers and was able to suggest perfect options. Very classy and just can't say enough how great this is.
