Beautiful venue
This venue was so amazing and a great price! Great historic space. Excellent lighting and design. Flexible space and Robyn is great to work with. We had a wedding with 50 guests and it was beautiful. I highly recommend.
Artis & Bernice's Wedding
Robyn was absolutely amazing from the start, and John was amazing at the back half of wedding planning/day of! My husband and I received so many compliments on the wedding venue. Thank you to all the staff members that helped make our wedding day an amazing day and all of their attentiveness to detail. FIVE exceeded our expectations! Lastly, thank you Robyn for always being so responsive to emails and for your attentiveness to detail as well. FIVE is a great wedding venue option!
FIVE Event Center
FIVE Event Center was the ideal location for our wedding! The space was perfect for our guests and never felt too tight or too big during the reception and the ceremony. Robyn was extremely helpful as we were planning the wedding as well as on the wedding day, as was the rest of the staff. The venue has an amazing bridal and grooms suite for getting ready! I would absolutely recommend FIVE Event Center if you are looking to have your wedding in the city! All of our expectations were beat and our guests thought the venue was beautiful!
