    They make your vision come alive

    One of the only venues in the Tacoma area that are truly accesible, having an accessible entrance was one thing we looked for and couldn't find elsewhere. The car show room was definitely a big plus for us as well, we got some beautiful pictures out of it. The staff was amazing (big thanks to Lindsey who helped navigate us through the process). Overall, it was a wonderful experience and I don't believe any other place could have topped off out special day.

    Above and Beyond!

    So happy with Historic 1625! We booked this venue about a year out and Lindsey, the wedding coordinator was so helpful and thorough with all of our needs. No matter how big or how small the request was, Lindsey was very accommodating. With the right decor, Historic was the perfect mix of rustic and elegant. The car room add on option was an amazing touch for cocktail hour. 10/10 would recommend, thank you to the Historic 1625 team for making our wedding day extra special and unforgettable!
