     Stage 1 was going to be a reception facility that would bring a different perspective to the idea of service and hospitality. As a former RN and Contractor, the reality of hard work was not a foreign concept. Along with their children they worked to bring into our business the many lessons that had been learned over their lifetime of experiences. We committed ourselves to service. After Twenty-five years we feel we have met the high standards that were placed before us. After opening Stage 1, Wallace and Gayle successfully opened five more businesses which included four other reception facilities in Baton Rouge, Gonzales, New Orleans, and Foley. Today Wallace still firmly holds the reins of his original business. Stage 1 will continue to lead in our industry in the tradition of our many years of committed service to our clients. We will continue to deliver the enduring promise of excellence.

Thank you so much for making our wedding reception a very beautiful and memorable one. We will never forget our Big Day and especially your kindness to us. You definitely went over the top and made our night absolutely wonderful! Everything looked so beautiful and the food was amazing! I never have been to a more beautifully decorated reception hall and I was truly in awe when I first walked in. You’re the best! We will recommend you and your place to everyone in the future.

Love,
Nico and Dawn Santiny
