The Cracker Factory was the perfect venue for our wedding day. From the initial communication via email, which was always prompt and helpful, to the day-of execution, the staff at The Cracker Factory exceeded our expectations. Their beautiful, industrial space provided the ideal backdrop for our ceremony and reception. The team worked closely with us to develop the perfect layout, ensuring the flow of the event went smoothly. On the day, the staff assisted with vendor entry and attended to countless details to keep everything running seamlessly. We were especially impressed by the stunning vines along the side of the building, which had turned a vibrant red color for the fall, adding to the already gorgeous ambiance. Overall, The Cracker Factory was the perfect choice for our wedding, and we highly recommend them to any couple looking for a unique and well-executed event space.

Colleen was our planner and she was amazing. She answered all of our questions and made us feel so comfortable. We hired her for day of and it was one of the best decisions we made. The food was amazing- we got so many compliments on it. The venue itself is so pretty that you don’t really need a ton of decor. They took care of table numbers, center pieces, and the card box too which was amazing. We had such a positive experience and will recommend it to everyone.
