I am so sorry to hear about illnesses of the staff I hope everyone gets better and sad to see that bud is thinking of selling the venue its a such a beautiful place and bud was such a pleasure to work with when my daughter was getting married and hes very fair to and I hope people will realize that there had to be alot of problems that they had to cancel peoples weddings I know it wasnt good for the people that had to change their wedding venues but at least they cared about everyones safety.
I do hope if bud does sell the business the next owners keep it as beautiful as bud and his staff have done. Hope everyone gets well and good luck on your next adventure. chris roche

If I could give 0 stars I would. Stay far, far, far away from this place. They CANCELLED MY DAUGHTER'S WEDDING TWO AND A HALF WEEKS BEFORE the event. I should've gone with my gut and listened to other reviews. As a father you want nothing but the best to happen for your daughter. La Mirage made both our nightmares come true. Summer of 2021 my daughter and her fiance decided to book their dream wedding for June 18th 2022 with La Mirage.
From the onset Bud and Linda seem uninterested and in some instances rude. During our initial conversation we sign a contract and leave a deposit, Bud mentions we should call about a month before the wedding to start finalizing. End of May 2022 I call to confirm a date to meet for final payment and arrangements. Linda tells me they don't call to make final arrangements until its within 10 days of the event, red flag #2 but I assume it's their business practice after all they claim to be in business for over 70 years.
On June 2nd I get one of the worst calls a parent could hear about their daughter's wedding. Bud tells me he's been trying to contact me for over a week, not true I have called ID on my cell phone and no voicemail messages. He proceeds to tell me they need to cancel the wedding because their kitchen staff has "long term Covid". When I questioned Bud and asked how that was possible if CDC indicates 5 day quarantine, he tells me long term Covid can last 6-12 months and they have to close for two months.
How could any business owner not plan accordingly to make sure you have the proper backups in place, in the event something like this were to happen, it's not like its 2020 and Covid is new. When I get there it pick up my deposit check, there is another couple in the parking lot arguing with them over return of a deposit for an event they had a couple weeks earlier.
I could not verify but couple expressed to me the food was two hours late and much of it was burned. Thank whatever higher being you believe in I was able to accommodate my daughter's wedding with the Aqua Turf of Southington for the same day, they saved what was a nightmare situation with many broken hearts and tears into what I hope will be a beautiful memorable day.
Moral of the story, if you're considering this place for one of the most important events of someone's life, think otherwise! I cannot stress that enough. I will never look into or recommend anyone do business with La Mirage. STAY FAR AWAY!

We had our Wedding Reception here in 2017, everything was perfect, besides Bud, interference on the microphone. We had our 5th yr. Anniversary dinner on Friday, 5/20/22. It was Horrible, dinner was 2 hrs late, one cook in the kitchen that had just started. I only had 50 guest which was the minimum. The food was burnt and dried out, he wouldn't allow my guest a piece of foil to take home cake the hors d'oeuvres for cold it was really horrible.
All he could do was apologize and say well you did eat. Appetizer at 7 and dinner at 10, ( dinner was supposed to be at 8) no excuse. Some of my Guest left before dinner they were Hungry. And when the food finally comes out it's Burnt! Never again will we use La Mirage.

Terrible I wish I can give it 0 stars. Place was ran down wasn't clean. A week before the wedding demanded more money. Owner rushed the wedding. Crew was rude and complaining about the owner to us and our guests. The open bar wasn't even worth it made people pay for drinks. I can't believe they are still in business should be shut down. Food was awful and cold. The ice cream was hard as a rock and freezer burnt. Please if your looking for a great time do not go here nothing but regrets.
