Absolutely everything about 5eleven was a great experience for our wedding. The entire space is beautiful inside and out and I love that you can personalize the layout in any way you like (plus having tables and chairs included was great). I loved the bridal loft and the added perk of being able to order breakfast and lunch for delivery and setup so we didn't have to scramble for food while we got ready. Cailin was so helpful and easy to work with. We really appreciated how quickly she responded to our (many!) questions and was proactive in offering solutions for us. We used the in-house bar service which was so easy to set up and reasonably priced. And the location really can't be beat - it's right in downtown but away from all of the bars so we felt we had plenty of privacy even though we were outdoors. Thank you 5eleven for everything!

Ya'll, I don't think our wedding could have been more perfect than it was at WaterVue at Brooks Street! The venue is absolutely gorgeous and has a magnificent deck overlooking the water, which is especially beautiful during sunset! There is a grand bar in the center of the venue, which all of our guests obviously loved :) The Mr. & Mrs. table, cake table, DJ stand were all perfectly placed and our day-of-event coordinator decorated the venue so pretty that it exceeded all of our expectations. The bridal suite and groom's room were a nice retreat for us while we got ready before the ceremony and of course, the fact that they allow dogs to be there seems too good to be true, but it isn't! If I could give 10/5 stars, I would! Massive thanks to Tiffany, John and Sarah for coordinating and managing our event. We couldn't be any happier!
