Perfect Micro Wedding
Sugar Maple was the perfect venue for our micro wedding of 25 people! The space has a relaxed vibe, and the large tables made it easy for everyone to connect. Xay and Adrienne went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed! They have a great special-occasion beverage menu, which includes a variety of non-alcoholic options for our guests who don’t drink - which it was really important to us to accommodate them. We were able to bring in our own food/cake and decorate the tables. We will be back to enjoy their bar and will use them for future special occasions!
a perfect evening
Having my event at sugar maple was an absolute dream. I had never planned an event before & the idea of it was incredibly daunting. Xay & Adrienne made the event extremely easy & smooth to plan. I received prompt & flexible responses to questions and the price was very reasonable. We ended up doing a signature cocktail & my guests have been raving about it since. It was delicious- so well balanced. The other drinks at the bar & extremely large beer selection were also beloved. We were allowed to sit out on the patio by the fire which provided a lovely dynamic for guests who needed a breather from dancing. The sound system is amazing, the projector worked very well, the back room is super cool & the vibe of the bar is immaculate. I would highly recommend using Sugar Maple for your event, going there for some beer with friends or attending one of there amazing pop ups.
Love the Sugar Maple!
The space is so cozy and warm. The staff made me and all of my guests feel welcome and service was fantastic. The menu is huge, they have 60 taps, and truly offers something for everyone. The fire pit outside was absolutely perfect for the chilly evening of our wedding reception. We had Tots on the Street do our late night snacks and they were a HIT! I definitely recommend this location for your big day!
Wedding after party
The Sugar Maple was an exceptional wedding venue for our wedding after party. From the moment we reached out, the staff was incredibly easy to work with - they were prompt in their responses, flexible with our needs, and genuinely eager to help make our day special. The venue itself is truly beautiful, with a versatile indoor and outdoor space that allowed us to create the exact vibe we were going for. The size of the space was perfect for our 120 guests, and the lush, neighborhood setting provided a lovely backdrop. We were thrilled with the value we received and would highly recommend The Sugar Maple to any couple searching for a stunning, flexible, and accommodating wedding party venue.
