“Beautiful venue with tons of room and character. We were so pleased with the accommodating staff and many options of layouts for our reception. This is the perfect venue for any event, but especially weddings and receptions. There is an outside area for people to gather and get away from the music if they'd like. They also offer decor rentals which we took full advantage of. We also got our tux rentals through them. It is a one stop shop for anything wedding which is so nice because wedding planning is already so stressful. They truly went above and beyond, and we wouldn't have wanted our reception anywhere else!”
