Awarded Best of Zola
Loved my wedding at this venue! This was the first venue we toured and ultimately decided to book it. The prices are reasonable and the team is great. Isabelle knows what she’s doing. The forecast was calling for rain the day of the wedding. She and her team were constantly watching the radar and working hard to make sure everything was perfect despite the weather. They were great at catering to my husband and I and making sure we had everything we needed the day of and did not stress about a thing

Located in the middle of a vibrant village, the goal was to provide a gathering place for events. The class architecture and details of this circa 1880s historic building is sure to compliment any theme. The antique checkerboard flooring adds a touch of eclectic flair. The building also features two separate dressing/staging areas as well as a full catering kitchen.
