We recently held our wedding at the Depot Event Space and we cannot believe how incredible they were. From the very beginning they were attentive to our needs and concerns (COVID). It was such a pleasure to work with their staff, they were so accommodating and amazing. They met all of our guests differing dietary needs in addition to providing the most delicious wedding cake of all time! We still have people raving about the food.
