Awarded Best of Zola
Highland Brewing Company was an incredible venue for our Welcome Party from the very beginning, the communication with Erin Winters and Monica Mayville was quick, responsive, and easy to work with. When we had to quickly move our welcome party from New Belgium in February due to the hurricane, the team at Highland Brewing worked with us to get us situated for an April wedding. The spacious venue was perfect for our 99 person welcome party, and the staff was fantastic in helping us execute our special day. The beautiful space and great communication made our wedding day perfect. We highly recommend Highland Brewing Company as a wedding venue.

I can’t say enough amazing things about this venue! As a wedding planner, I always like to work with venues that have checked all their boxes. Meaning, they have thought through everything that a couple could need at their venue. I love that they have tables and chairs already on site for couples to use, that way they don’t have to outsource them. Another thing that I absolutely LOVE about the venue, is that they have created the space in black and white. This is absolutely PERFECT for anyone who wants to come in to have their wedding/event and make it their one. In talking with Brittany, she explained to me, that’s exactly want she had in mind when they started to decorate. I am so excited with recommend this venue to my future couples and I look forward to working there again!

Our wedding at Uptown Indigo was perfect from start to finish. The facility is so much bigger than these photos suggest. My husband and I both feel that the level of service and attention to detail made the value of Uptown Indigo second to none. When we first went in for a tour, Duncan made us cocktails and spent more time with us than any other tour we had. The staff actually cared about us and we didn't just feel like a number. My favorite part was the bridal suite in the morning. They turned the whole top floor into the bridal suite and it felt like a movie when the elevator doors opened and we walked out and placed our dresses on the coat hanger. There was music playing, and mimosas set out. My mom started crying and then I started crying and I knew then that the day would be perfect. I highly recommend the Uptown Indigo venue/family and we am so thankful that we trusted our wedding day to them.
