  Wedding in October posted 12/3/2010

  Wow, can’t believe it’s over. Seems like only yesterday I walked in to Jubilee Event Center and met Sharon! She’s was amazing to work with. She helped me picked out everything, organize everything and most of all agreed to meet with me upteen thousand times as I changed my mind!! The facility was clean, pretty and the food (what I got to eat!) was outstanding…..at least my guest seemed to enjoy it all! I highly recommend this venue for both the wedding and the reception! This was one venue in Knoxville that is actually affordable including the venue and the food!

  Awesome job! posted 9/7/2012

  Jubilee was fantastic. The staff is very helpful and knowledgable. They go out of their way to help you with anything you need. The food was good, the room is pretty, and it is very accessible to guests. I was so worked up about the event running smoothly but when it came to the day, I found I wasn’t worrying about anything at all because they were taking care of it all! I definitely recommend them.

  The BEST place in town for your wedding/reception! posted 8/10/2011

  The owner Sharon and her team members at Jubilee worked so hard on my wedding to make it what I wanted and it was beautiful and hassle-free! They worked well with my photographer, videographer, florist and baker and everything went as planned. I only have great things to say about them and would use them again in a heartbeat!! Thank you so much Jubilee for making my wedding day AMAZING!!

My husband Jason and I were married July 9, 2011 at Jubilee and also held our reception here. Sharon and Brittany were such a blessing to work with! Both were very professional and kind. Their attention to detail was amazing and my family and I were extremely pleased with the results. We had quite a few children and we decided to rent the gym. The kids had a ball which allowed the adults to have fun as well. Words cannot express how thankful we are to the staff at Jubilee. Thank you for helping us make our wedding perfect!!!

I can’t express enough how much we enjoyed working with Brittany and Sharon. We knew from our first meeting that we were in very good hands. Thanks for helping me give Casey the wedding she dreamed of.

I would definetly recomend Jubilee Banquet Facility to any bride!!! It is a beautiful place and the people were extremely nice and helpful!!!

June the 9th was definitely a night to remember for the Jubilee crew as we celebrated the owner,    Sharon Morton, and her husband Rob’s 25th wedding anniversary! All of her closest family and friends  came out to congratulate the couple and have some fun! All of the staff showed their appreciation and love for Sharon as they worked to be sure everything was perfect for her, and she reciprocated by allowing everyone to join in the party as well! Some of our favorite vendors helped to make this night spectacular! Flourish Floral did the flowers and they were breathtaking! Sarah Mcaffry was the photographerand took the most gorgeous pictures, and the cake made by Alicia Fugate was TO DIE FOR! Of course it isn’t a party without a great DJ so we have Foundation Events come in and do some special things and surprises! Mike from the Sound Revue was generous enough to let us use his lights, and even taught us how to operate them! The room was gorgeous, the loving couple was gorgeous, and of course so was the staff. With all she does for us, it was nice to do something for her! Congratulations Sharon and Rob!

One of the more popular themes this year is the “tiki” parties! We will gladly host a Hawaiian dance group  soon, which we are all very excited about seeing! What could be better than bringing a luau inside where you don’t have to clean up?!

The Powell Playhouse will be hosting another play in June! They have all been working so hard to prepare, and they never disappoint! This is a great event for our community so everyone should come out and show support! They have also reserved space for the next year for a variety of different things! It is always a joy to work with them and have them at Jubilee!

We have exciting events coming up this summer, and that just makes our jobs even more fun!!

Jubilee Banquet Facility decorated at Christmas

While some are planning their summer vacations, smart and budget-conscious people are planning their company holiday parties.

In recent years, the state of the economy has been reflected by a company’s holiday gatherings. As the economy slowly recovers, trends show that management is still taking the conservative approach when it comes to office parties. The goal is to strike the perfect balance of controlling expenditures while supporting the desire for fun.

And, Jubilee Banquet Facility wants to help. If a Christmas party is booked during the month of July, companies can receive a $75 discount off the fee for Jubilee Hall, $50 discount off the fee for 1/2 of Jubilee Hall, or a $30 discount off the room fee of the Blue Room.

Jubilee Hall can accommodate 250 guests and the Blue Room is perfect for an intimate gathering of 40 people.

When planning the office holiday party, there are other cost cutting measures. Consider a dessert station which allows for smaller portions, rather than serving full slices of cake. Serving seasonal fruits and vegetables is a smart and delicious cost saver. Another budget-friendly idea is to hire a DJ rather than a band.

More suggestions include hosting a business casual dinner, rather than suit and tie affair. This gives you more flexibility when planning the menu options. Another suggestion for slicing the menu budget is to host a holiday luncheon rather than dinner. Not only will this save money on the menu, but it will also decrease the head count by eliminating employee guests and family members.

Jubilee Banquet Facility will help you host the perfect company Christmas party that the staff and your wallet will love. Contact Jubilee today to discover your options, 865-938-2112.

Here at Jubilee we had a phenomenal Christmas season with lots of repeat clients and many new one joining us to celebrate the holidays.  We had so many who wanted to celebrate with the company, yet make it a family gathering as well that we had a revelation…why not let them celebrate with a wonderful meal and gift time then let the children be supervised for some play time in the gym as the adults continue to visit and mingle in the main hall!  It turned out to be the best of both worlds and what a time we had!

The ‘front of the house’ team sets up the party rooms, serve guests throughout the event and breaks down the event once the guests leave. Our ‘front’ team is Matt C., who loves snowboarding, soccer, poker and working out; Matt B., who races motorcycles and likes to snowboard; Molly, who likes soccer, snowboarding and running; Grant, who loves to hunt and play soccer; Brett, who likes to play poker; Brittany, who is a closet book nerd and loves to shop; Allison, who likes tanning and dancing; Gretchen, who coaches track and field; Rachel, who likes reading, going to the lake, loves UT sports and church-league basketball; Kaylin, who loves soccer and dancing; and Sharon, who loves photography, fishing and poetry.
