“We absolutely loved having SpyHop as our wedding venue! Alecia was so friendly and supportive and incredibly communicative with us and our vendors to ensure that everything was seamless and easy! The space was gorgeous. A blank canvas with incredibly good bones and infrastructure that allowed us to transform it into exactly what we’d imagined and beyond. On the day they were able to help us add their projector to use for our slideshow that become a huge focal point in such an incredible way. The outdoor space with the stunning mountain range is so beautiful people keep asking us if the background of our wedding photos is AI. Even though it was the hottest day on record in SLC at 109 degrees the space was perfectly air conditioned and once the sun set the rooftop provided a great place to get some fresh air and amazing photos. My only note was that there’s not really a green room/changing room so we had to wait to make our entrance hiding in the kitchen with the catering staff, only to find out that there were bathrooms downstairs we could have used that were separate from the space and would have allowed us a little more privacy. Aside from that most minor of inconveniences, we couldn’t be more thrilled at how our wedding turned out. We also loved that the proceeds from our rental are used to fund the youth center below. Such a smart idea to have such an incredible event space fund an important and necessary community project. Thank you Alecia and everyone at SpyHop. We loved it.”

Welcome to The Hearth! The Hearth is Utah’s newest venue! This 1960’s historic building has been a home to many different owners. After finding it completely destroyed, windows broken, graffiti left and right, we saw great bones and couldn’t wait to make this special building into a place where people would start their futures together. We kept a lot of the vintage touches to the building while giving it a modern facelift.
