I got married at SAGE in July of 24’ and it was amazing, Glenn and his wife are the owners and they help you with everything directly. It 100% was worth every penny, but with the amount that’s included in their venue I can’t believe we didn’t spend 15k or more like all the other venues wanted. I had the perfect day as a bride and our guests were impressed! The food was amazing and made by the owners as well. I can’t recommend them enough!

Getting married at the Palace was a dream for me and my husband, but we honestly didn’t even know weddings there were a thing since it’s primarily known as a concert venue. I took a chance and called, and got a response from Sydney the very next day. We instantly hit it off, and from that first conversation I knew it was going to be our venue! Even with it being our dream venue from the start, it somehow still exceeded our expectations on the actual wedding day. The space itself is incredibly unique and beautiful. If you’re looking for a venue with rich history, ornate architecture, and a dramatic, unforgettable atmosphere, this is absolutely the place. Our guests are still talking about how cool the venue was and how unlike any other wedding venue they had been to before. We held our ceremony in the theatre and our reception in the Faces Lobby, and both spaces were surreal. The venue gave our wedding so much character without needing excessive decoration or stress on our end. The place practically comes decorated already. What made the experience exceptional, though, was the staff, especially Sydney. She went above and beyond throughout the planning process and on the wedding day itself. She was organized, responsive, calming, and genuinely cared about making the day feel personal and stress free for us. Having someone attentive and caring coordinating things behind the scenes made such a difference, especially during moments that could have otherwise felt overwhelming. One of the biggest things we appreciated was how smoothly everything worked with our vendors. Communication and coordination between the venue and vendors felt incredibly organized, which removed so much stress from the process and made the day feel effortless for us. Honestly, we loved it so much we’re already considering doing a vow renewal there someday, haha. We feel incredibly lucky that we were able to get married here, and I would recommend it wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a venue that is not only beautiful and unique, but also professionally run by people who care!
