The best day ever!
We had an outstanding experience working with Marlana and Molly at The Venues at The Factory on Willow for our wedding. Their communication was exceptional—prompt, clear, and proactive. They provided us with a comprehensive planning spreadsheet that streamlined the entire process, ensuring that every detail was meticulously organized. The venue itself is breathtaking, featuring expansive event spaces and picturesque photo locations, perfect for capturing special moments. Marlana and Molly went above and beyond, managing both the setup and takedown within our tight timeframe, while also ensuring that our day unfolded seamlessly. From the initial planning stages to the final event execution, the team at The Factory demonstrated professionalism, dedication, and a genuine commitment to making our wedding day flawless. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!
Perfect!
Amazing. The experience was fantastic and the girls had my back every step of the way. They thought of so many details I never would have even considered. They were so attentive to everything I needed and had so many different ideas to help guide me through the whole thing.
Vendors dream location
I cannot recommend The venues at the factory enough! I’ve worked there a few times now as a floral vendor coordinator, and since then I have suggested it to so many people! The space is funky and unique, the staff is so sweet, and the all around vibe is spot on. If you are looking for a unique and customizable space for your big day, definitely check them out :)
Photographer Approved!
We absolutely have loved photographing weddings at this venue. It is customizable to each bride's vision and has amazing natural lighting (that we LOVE!). Their venue coordinator, Marlana, is so kind, professional, communicative, and easy to work with! Can't wait to return this upcoming wedding season!
