“We had our wedding at the Barley Room in October and it was wonderful! Beautiful venue and the price point especially for the area is great. The bridal suite was perfect to get ready in. We loved being able to choose all of our vendors and make the space our own. Clai and Ann are very easy to work with. We are so happy we chose to have our wedding here :)”

“Edison Hall was the perfect venue for our wedding day. From the moment we first reached out, their communication was prompt and they were incredibly flexible in helping us bring our vision to life. The space is absolutely beautiful, with amazing natural light and a clean, flexible layout that allowed us to customize it to our needs. Our guests were so impressed by the gorgeous waterfront location and the open, airy feel of the venue. Jessica and Mikayla were a joy to work with - they were always available to answer our questions, did multiple walkthroughs with us, and came up with creative ideas to make our wedding day truly special. The food and signature drinks were amazing, and we loved being able to choose from their selection of chairs, linens, and table layouts. The venue also has so many great photo opportunities, both inside and out, and it was so convenient being located right in downtown Port Washington, close to hotels, coffee shops, and the lakefront. Our out-of-town guests raved about the beautiful setting and convenient location. We couldn't have asked for a better venue to celebrate our special day!”
