“Excellence! Pique is TRULY amazing. The venue is esthetically amazing, wonderful layout and exceptional management team. Add ons- outdoor games…check! Coordinate with the preferred vendors for meals, bar service, and and any additional decor. Pique and vendors are easy to work with and coordinate with. I am a MN native and now live on the West Coast. I lived 3 blocks from Pique while in MN, and knew it was the perfect space and place for our Aug, 6th Wedding. Encourage you to consider Pique Travel and Events, it will not disappoint!! PS: pricing is very reasonable. We were married on a Sunday at end of Summer. Sunday wedding rock! Pricing even more reasonable on Sunday/Funday”
