You won’t find a better venue! From start to finish Dan and everyone there made planning a wedding so easy! The day went by so smooth and I didn’t even hire a coordinator. I wish I could relive that day over and over and get married there again and again! I told all my bridesmaids they have to get married here because it’s so easy and amazing!

Working with Heidi and her team at Takk House was the most amazing experience. Knowing that they had almost everything handled made our wedding, typically one of the most stressful things in life, a breeze. Not only did they exceed our expectations, they literally blew us and our family away. I could not have imagined our wedding with any other venue.

I was so in love with the large floor to ceiling windows and at night it was absolutely stunning! The outside patio with the fire pits were such a beautiful touch and everyone was loving them all night! The food & drinks were delicious and I have to mention how amazing the staff was to us.. truly wouldn’t have gotten through the night without them! Highly recommend!!
