About this venue
The area which now comprises Memory Grove Park was set aside as a city park in 1902. The park however, remained unimproved until the 1920s when the women of the Salt Lake chapter of the Service Star Legion asked the city to designate the park as a memorial honoring America's soldiers and spearheaded the planting of trees and placement of monuments in the park. Memorial House was constructed around 1890 as a stable and equipment storage shed for contractor Patrick J. Moran. When Salt Lake City acquired the park area in 1902, the city's water department used the building as their barn, tool shed, and blacksmith shop as it was located directly across from the city's water intake structure on City Creek. In 1926, Salt Lake City leased the building to the Service Star Legion which planned to use it for veteran's activities and they renovated it to become an events center, there have been weddings held at Memorial House ever since. Now operated by Preservation Utah.

Great venue
We loved having our wedding ceremony at the beautiful Memorial House at Memory Grove Park. The historic house and surrounding gardens created a charming backdrop for our special day. Throughout the planning process, the venue coordinator was very responsive over email and helped us finalize all the details. On the big day, everything ran smoothly thanks to their professionalism in keeping the event on schedule. Our guests raved about the lovely setting. We would highly recommend Memorial House to other couples looking for an intimate ceremony site with classic architecture and greenery.
Great Venue
The memorial house has great staff, who are all kind and work hard. It was a great wedding venue, the building itself is so nice we didn’t need to do much decorating.
