This venue was fantastic! There were a few details that didn’t pan out day of (seating chart, style of tables, sweet heart table and decor for it, and flower girl baskets) but it didn’t stop or really effect the wedding or reception! I would just say double check your details the morning you get there with your wedding planner and everything else will be good as gold! The party was so much fun and they’re really catered to us as much as possible! Great crew!

Book this venue. My wife and I looked at a handful of places in the greater Orlando area, and nothing matched our vibe until we were fortunate enough to witness this stunning property. It’s unlike anything else in the area. The property offers several ceremony options, both outdoor and indoor, a beautiful outdoor & indoor option for reception, and an amazing array of bonus options - including on site AirBnBs for family or wedding party. We got compliments all evening on how beautiful the space was. Erik, the owner was great, knowledgable, and friendly. We didn’t see much as for photos or reviews online, but once we walked the space we knew it instantly. 10/10 would recommend.

Historic Venue 1902 was the lagniappe we needed to make our Florida/Louisiana flare wedding become a stunning reality!! From the beginning of booking to the fruition of our event, the staff was incredibly helpful, engaged, and excitable about bringing our vision to life. They were always quick to respond on Honeybook or via zoom or in person to meet our needs. The team absolutely rolled with all of my ideas, letting me make the big decisions while providing thoughtful suggestions where necessary. The venue itself is absolutely stunning - a huge, classic and elegant space that was laid out perfectly to accommodate the different portions of our event. The venue as a blank canvas is enough, but really shone with the additional vendors. My husband and I only needed one visit to know this team and venue were conducive to our vision. As a type A, organized bride, the team really brought the coordination to life for me!! I was not stressed at all the day of and I kid you not- not a single thing went wrong or amiss. I would not change a single thing. We had the dream wedding and I wish I could do it all over again.
