“We recently had our wedding at the 408 and could not be happier with our choice. From the staff to the atmosphere, everything was perfect and our guests had nothing but good things to say. We had about 55 people which made for a cozy and intimate wedding that never felt cramped or awkward in the space. The 408 is already so beautifully decorated which allowed us to bring in minimal items and utilize items already at the 408 such as candles, vases, and plants to decorate the tables and ceremony space. Maria (event manager) was fantastic throughout the planning process answering every question quickly and with detail, and the staff the day of was professional, incredibly friendly, and attentive. We have nothing but good things to say about the 408 and would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone regardless of the event type”

“From our first conversation with Emily and Mike at Elm and Arbor, we knew we'd found the right venue. They're easy to talk to and genuinely want to remove the stress from planning, which made the whole process feel smooth and straightforward. Their accommodating approach meant they worked with us on every detail without making us feel rushed or pressured. We loved that they offered us discounted pricing as one of their first couples. We're super excited to be able to still have some things on our big day, like a first dance, even if it's an elopement! While we haven't had our celebration yet, we're counting down the days!!”
