The Valley Dale Ballroom, debatably began in 1919, as a music and dance hall. Thirty years later VDB evolved into a mostly wedding venue. Under the tutelage of the ballroom’s current owners Rick Brunetto & Landa Masdea Brunetto the ballroom has presented a more theatrical and musical facet since they took possession two years ago, with featured music shows honoring Sinatra, Glenn Miller, and Temptations.
