Wagner's of Westlake
Frequently Asked Questions
How much experience does the caterer have in hosting events?
Wagner’s of Westlake was opened specifically as a banquet facility center in 1965 and have held more wedding receptions than any other venue in Western Cuyahoga County. In addition to wedding receptions, we have been a leading event venue choice for proms, corporate events, after-funeral luncheons, class reunions, fundraisers, baby showers, bridal showers or any special event where quality food and a great atmosphere is desired.
Is there an onsite kitchen or is it being delivered to the facility?
Having an onsite kitchen is an important ingredient. Our Executive Chef prepares your menu the day of your event. In that way, he is certain that he has the freshest products and can avoid any re-heating of food.
Does the caterer offer a food tasting?
Yes, we host Food Tasting Events twice a year! Ask for information.
Does the caterer provide bar packages?
Yes, we have a liquor license.
What is the benefit of working with an event venue that has a liquor license versus a facility where you can bring in your own alcohol?
The best way to impact a guest’s enjoyment is to run out of their preferred liquor, beer, wine and/or wash. When you purchase your own alcohol, it is almost impossible to determine what, and how much, your guests will drink. Since there is no true formula, a host can easily under or over-estimate their needs. With our liquor license, Wagner’s is able to assure you an ample quantity on hand at an affordable price. No matter your choice, encourage responsible drinking.
Can I have a wedding ceremony in a ballroom?
Yes! You can choose to hold the ceremony in your room or choose another ballroom for the wedding ceremony only. Please ask for pricing.
What do you supply for linens and table settings?
Yes, we supply white tablecloths and your choice of colored napkins!
Can I bring in my own cake?
Yes, and our professional event staff will cut and serve your cake as dessert at no additional cost to you.
Can I bring in my own centerpieces?
Feel free to design your own centerpieces. We do offer small and large candleholders, vases and mirrors for a nominal rental charge.
Is there parking for my guests?
Our large area provides ample well-lit parking for you and your guests.
