We had our wedding reception at SB Courthouse Distillery, and it was absolutely perfect from start to finish! We used their Distillers Lounge for a 50 person sit dinner and dancing afterwards. From the moment we began planning, Melody, our event coordinator, was incredibly responsive and made the entire process effortless and enjoyable. She kept everything on track and answered all our questions quickly, which took a huge load of stress off our shoulders. On the day of the event, Andrew, the event manager, was onsite and went above and beyond to ensure every detail was exactly how we wanted it. Having the option to set up the day before and pick up the following day was a total game-changer and made everything so much easier. The bar team was fantastic. Matt, our bar manager, was not only kind and helpful but made the best old fashions and whiskey sour we've ever had. Matt even stepped in as an impromptu DJ by connecting his own phone to the Bluetooth so our guests could dance all night long. Peyton, the second bartender, was wonderful too, also making amazing whiskey sours and shooters. The location itself is perfect. Just a 2 minute walk from the courthouse with such a welcoming and stylish atmosphere. Our guests can't stop raving that the food was hands down the best wedding food they've ever had. Highly recommend the braised short ribs!! To top it off, the pricing was the most fair and reasonable compared to every other venue we checked out. We received well beyond what we expected and cannot recommend SB Courthouse Distillery enough to anyone looking for the ideal wedding venue with exceptional staff who truly care. Thank you to everyone who made our day so special!
