    Having our wedding ceremony and reception at FIVE was our best decision ever! The space was absolutely beautiful and so romantic. Robyn was a pleasure to work with and made the planning process a breeze. Highly recommend the FIVE Event Center for your next event!

    FIVE Event Center were incredibly easy to talk to and answered all of our questions promptly. Their team did an amazing job coordinating with our other wedding vendors to ensure everything ran smoothly on the big day. The rustic, industrial-chic space was a perfect fit for our wedding theme, and I received so many compliments from our guests on the beautiful and unique venue. I was especially grateful to have security on-site and a dedicated venue coordinator who was there to assist us throughout the entire event. FIVE Event Center truly contributed to making our wedding day everything we had dreamed of and more.

  • Perfect for our wedding day!

    We couldn’t have chosen a better place for our wedding day! From start to finish, FIVE Event Center exceeded all of our expectations. The setting was absolutely stunning with the brick walls & modern industrial feel making it the ideal backdrop for our ceremony and reception. The staff went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. The Venue Operations Manager Megan was incredibly attentive, making sure every detail was just as we envisioned. We are so grateful for the memories created here and would recommend FIVE Event Center to anyone looking for a magical wedding experience. Thank you for helping make our day unforgettable!

    We have been left speechless about our big day for the last month. If considering FIVE Event Center for your wedding, let this be your sign. All thanks have to go to the amazing coordinators, Victoria and Robyn, and their staff who made the process oh so smooth! Their communication from the first inquiry to the day of was incredible. They are up front and honest. They are open to giving recommendations, but also open to hearing yours. They work with some of the most amazing partners. Be sure to check out their preferred vendors--everyone we worked with from this list was FABULOUS! Our guests have continued to rave about our choice of venue. From the bridal/groom suites, to the beautiful brick walls and cocktail space downstairs, and everything in between! With being in Uptown, parking can be tricky. Therefore, we recommend working with their top pick of valet service-Unparalleled Parking (Especially for a Friday Wedding). The photo options are endless and truly perfect surrounding this location as well. FIVE Event is there for you to ensure your day is perfect! Stop debating and choose FIVE Event:)
