Awarded Best of Zola
Not only were they the only venue to respond to me in a timely manner, they also checked all my boxes. It’s a big enough space for a lot of people, but still small enough to feel intimate. The communication was great. Most important to me is they do everything for you! By that I mean they cater there, they have a full bar and bartender, they help coordinate, set up and take down (no cleaning for me at the end of my wedding!!) and they have a coordinator day of who stays with you and helps everything move along the whole time. You cannot go wrong if you choose them as your venue. I highly recommend.
