Business Meeting
We hosted a business meeting at Watson Block and had the best experience! Gaby made sure we had everything we needed for the full day, and the catering staff from Green Mill was flexible and accommodating to our shifting agenda. The space and layout was perfect to host the meeting portion at the front of the room and use the back of the room for more casual conversations and an afternoon happy hour. We’d love to come back!
A beautiful, easy experience!
Watson block was the perfect venue for our smallish (80 people) wedding. The staff (especially Gaby) were great to work with and made all the details come together smoothly so I didn’t have to worry about any of the transitions during the day. Gaby always communicated in a timely and professional manner, answering my many questions in the weeks leading up. The interiors of Watson Block are very classy, we didn’t even need much décor. Would highly recommend!!
Great venue!
So happy we decided on Watson Block for our wedding venue. The pictures came out lovely, and Gaby is so easy to work with. Very communicative and knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend!
Fantastic Wedding Venue!
When we saw the price of the venue we thought, "we'll check it out, but there has to be something wrong with it." Boy were we proved wrong! The space is absolutely gorgeous - we barely had to decorate! And Gaby was great at communicating details and helping us through our big day. The 3rd floor was also a nice bonus - allowing us to store emergency items, take extra pictures, and providing a quiet spot for us to escape to when we needed some alone time. We've already recommended Watson Block to our friends (and anyone who says they're on the lookout for a wedding venue!). The only drawback would be since it is above a bar, there was a little residual noise from down below as the night progressed. This didn't negatively impact our experience, but should be noted if planning quieter events later in the evening (our ceremony was at 4pm with no distracting sounds from below).
