“We found Sepia Private Dining and it was the perfect venue for our small wedding (50 guests). The Sepia staff did almost everything to make my wedding everything I wanted. The mirror on the wall and the decor matched our vibe. We had one set-up for the ceremony, then the guests had appetizers (we left to take pictures) and they changed the set-up for dinner and then moved a couple of tables for dancing later. I did not have a wedding planner and they made everything easy, from planning the menu to the set-up it was a stress free day! I would strongly recommend Sepia Private Dining for all of your smaller events.”

“Book this venue asap!!! Truly could not have imagined our day going any better. It will all come together in the end and the team at Gaelic Park did a great job of doing that. The waitstaff was great the entire night & not having to have a million different vendors made for an easy process before the wedding and throughout the day. Here are some pictures from my amazing photographer!!!!! https://www.madisontaylorphotography.net/”
