Porta was an absolute dream to work with for our Halloween wedding! Their communication was always quick, clear, and timely, which was so helpful during the busy planning process. The team went above and beyond to accommodate our guests' dietary restrictions and made the set up and clean up process a breeze. The handle everything from florals, cake and decor. The quality of their work was truly magical - the space they transformed for our big day was dramatic and fun, setting the perfect mood for our spooky celebration. We couldn't have asked for a better wedding venue. Porta made our special day feel truly one-of-a-kind. It also reasonably priced compared to other venues.
