Today, nestled behind this early 1900's storefront, (we left the outside just the way we found it), you'll find Orlando's most unique event space imaginable. Some are calling it "The Hidden Hanger" and others, "The Speakeasy". We just call it 1010 WEST. Step through the old metal gates and you'll discover the rustic and industrial, yet warm environment of a space revitalized from a turn of the century airplane hangar. Speakeasies may no longer be illegal, but their hard-to-find entrances gives a sense of exhilaration when walking down a dimly lit alleyway and passing through nondescript gates into a subterranean world of tinkling glasses and spirited history of our hidden hangar.

The A&H’s Maitland Art Center, originally known as the Research Studio, was founded in 1937 by visionary artist and architect J. André Smith. The center was originally a winter artist’s colony, dedicated to fostering an exploratory approach to modern art. The hundreds of original sculptural elements that adorn the structures were hand-carved by André Smith and his associates, and the center remains one of the few surviving examples of Mayan Revival architecture in the southeastern United States.

These areas attract couples seeking that perfect blend of urban convenience and natural charm.

Unique venues in Orlando—from converted galleries in College Park to warehouse spaces near Lake Nona—often provide blank-canvas flexibility that traditional ballrooms don't. Start by confirming vendor restrictions: some spaces allow outside catering while others require in-house services. Ask about layout flexibility, especially lighting and sound systems, since industrial or gallery venues may need upgrades.
Consider Orlando's subtropical climate when personalizing. Outdoor elements like string lights or tent overlays work beautifully but require contingency planning for afternoon heat and evening thunderstorms. Winter Park's garden-inspired venues often favor natural décor, while Thornton Park's vintage spaces benefit from statement florals and dramatic linens.
Meet with venue owners about timeline access—unique spaces sometimes allow extended setup time before your event. Ask about load-in procedures, parking for vendors, and restroom facilities. Finally, discuss your vision for how you want to transform the raw space, then get specific commitments in writing about what you can and cannot customize.
Unique venues are designed to give you creative freedom—that's often what sets them apart. Most allow significant décor customization, though the level depends on the space itself. A converted warehouse or loft typically offers a blank canvas, while a venue with distinctive architecture (think exposed brick or vintage details) might have built-in character you'll want to complement rather than cover.
Before booking, ask these key questions:
- What décor elements are already included or permanent?
- Are there restrictions on hanging items, lighting, or floral installations?
- Can you bring in outside vendors for design services?
- What's the cleanup responsibility for custom installations?
According to Zola marketplace data, unique venues have a median starting price of $4,500 across the US, which is slightly higher than standard venues. This premium often reflects the flexibility and distinctive features that allow for creative customization. The investment in a unique space frequently means you'll need less décor to achieve your vision since the venue itself becomes part of your aesthetic.
For a 100-guest wedding in Orlando, you can expect to spend $25,200–$37,800, according to the Zola Wedding Cost Index. This is slightly below the national median of $25,000 per total wedding cost, making Orlando a budget-friendly destination.

Your venue size should match both your guest count and budget. Here's how Orlando wedding costs scale:
