Homesteads Events was the perfect venue for our wedding! The natural light and exposed brick walls provided the perfect backdrop to showcase our decor choices. Hannah and the team were incredible to work with - they took our vision of incorporating Chinese American elements into the wedding and brought it to life seamlessly. They were incredibly accommodating to any requests we had and were so supportive and excited about making our day special. Hannah was a rockstar throughout the entire process, always there to answer our questions and provide reassurance. We couldn't have asked for a better venue or team to bring our wedding day to life!
