Working with The Dillon House was a seamless and enjoyable experience from start to finish. The staff was prompt and very helpful. They were also very mindful of our budget, offering creative solutions to ensure we could have a successful event. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful - the grand, ornate architecture creates such a stunning, one-of-a-kind backdrop for any event.
