“It was amazing working with Dan and Dana! We have been going to the restaurant for many years and have always loved the atmosphere, quality of food and the service. The staff is always so polite. This was the first time we booked a major event with them. We were so impressed with their professionalism and expertise. Dana, the coordinator, assured me to not stress over details because that was her job and she totally delivered on that promise. Dan is the owner and he actually married us in a really beautiful ceremony. We were all so pleased with how things turned out that my mom even booked her 60th birthday there 6 weeks after our wedding. We cannot say enough good things about the Public Landing!”

“From the moment we stepped into the Sanctuary, we immediately fell in love with how stunning the place was and knew that this is where we wanted to host our wedding. Nancy & Shelly really took the time and cared about every little detail that we wanted and helped bring our vision to life. The day of, Shelly and her team were OUTSTANDING, making sure that we were taken care of, on schedule, helped make the room look beautiful and that no detail went astray. Throughout the entirety of the night, we had guests coming up and complimenting how beautiful the space itself was. The transition from the ceremony to the reception, with the subtle "room flip" was so seamless and quick that we didn't even realize that it happened - which was one of the small concerns we had. This is such an amazing backdrop for a wedding or any event with such a qualified and amazing team of dedicated professionals who provide exceptional service. We are so grateful for them all & highly recommend Sanctuary Events for your special day. Thanks team! Love, Craig & Bre”

“Having our wedding at Warehouse 109 (WH) was a dream!!! My now husband & I had been touring wedding venues without much luck- they were either 'too expensive' or 'too stuffy' for our taste. As soon as we toured WH, we saw ourselves getting married there! It’s a family business and you can tell the passion and care they put into their customizable venue space. We had the fun & colorful Mexican wedding we dreamed of and our guests loved the unique blend of modern & vintage that WH offers! Also a HUGE BONUS in my mind is the gardens!!! We toured in the winter, but taking photos the gardens in July made a beautiful backdrop for photos! HIGHLY REC! They were a joy to work with & exactly what we wanted!”
