  • Indoor
  • Starts at $4,500

1910. That’s when this studio was built. That’s more than 100 years ago. Before the Titanic. Before World War I. Of course, when they built it they didn’t know it was a studio. They thought they’d built a factory for transforming raw cotton into fire-retardant fabrics. And they did just that for about 84 years. Next came a few years of hand-wringing and a few more of neglect and abandonment. In 2007, they finally turned it over to Jason Ivany. He set it back on track and transformed it into the daylight studio it was always meant to be just before the 100 year mark.

Overall, I love AmbientStudio and our experience was smooth and Stage 1 is just beautiful. I'd give a solid 4.5 for the overall experience. The team handled our room flip (ceremony to reception) flawlessly and from my experience the team was all easy to communicate with and handled everything well on the day-of. They were helpful and reasonable with accommodating our needs. One definite area for improvement in our experience would be that we smelled weed both during our rehearsal and our reception. When it's not coming from our guests, that's odd and should not be happening. I never personally laid eyes on the person responsible for that smell, though some of my group did.

I had the pleasure of hosting my wedding reception at Golden Door Event Hall on 07/07/2023, and I couldn't have been more satisfied with their services. To start, I had to make a last-minute change to my reception venue, and Golden Door Event Hall was not only available but also incredibly accommodating. Their flexibility, professionalism, and helpfulness were truly exceptional. The staff was always pleasant to work with, making the planning process a breeze. I would wholeheartedly recommend Golden Door Event Hall to anyone in need of a fantastic event venue. I wouldn't hesitate to book with them again in the future. They turned what could have been a stressful situation into a wonderful and memorable experience for our special day!

We highly recommend using this venue for your special day. The staff is amazing especially Heidi she was the person that sold us into doing our wedding here. After researching a few other venues Terminus 330 had the best to offer. We loved that a big portion of items were included and did not have to worry about outsourcing it ourselves. You are able to really create your vision and the staff is there to assist you in making it a reality. All of our guests were impressed, and had nothing but good things to say about the venue, location and staff on the day of the wedding. If you are part of the LGBTQ community and looking for a place to feel welcomed and supported this is it. Thank you Terminus for making our wedding so special.

10/10 the most amazing venue. I cannot say enough wonderful things about this space and their team! 42West Entertainment Group was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the first point of contact, their communication was friendly, quick and efficient. The quality of their work and value they provided was amazing - and having their decor and design expertise was budget-friendly! The team is very knowledgable and decorated the space beautifully. Everything was absolutely perfect. Having Lauren and Halley there on our wedding day was so reassuring - they were incredibly helpful and, given minimal direction from us, made our wedding day beautiful and stress-free. We couldn't have asked for a better venue to bring our vision to life. 42West is truly a dream team venue!

I cannot even express how much we loved working with Julian and Anne! Our wedding in March 2025 was absolutely beautiful and we could not have made a better choice than the Westside Warehouse. Julian was extremely responsive and communicative through the entire process and we loved the option to use the antique furniture available for decoration. If I was reading this review while I was in the process to book a venue, what I'd want to know is that the communication is excellent, the execution was flawless, location was unmatched, our guests had a great time, and the photos were exceptional. There isn't one thing I'd change about our venue!

We had a wonderful ceremony and reception at the Piedmont Park Greystone. The staff was so helpful from the time we toured and booked the venue, all the way to picking up the things we'd left behind after the wedding. You can't beat the location in the middle of Piedmont Park, plus the chance to drive in the provided golf cart around the park before the wedding resulted in some amazing and unique photos (including those under the in-bloom cherry blossoms)! We also loved the having the outdoor space for the ceremony and cocktail hour and the huge hall for dinner, which looks lovely in photos.
