From the moment we booked Historic Venue 1902, their communication with us was streamlined, effortless and so helpful. The venue staff were quick to respond to any questions we had and made the planning process a breeze. When we saw the space in person, we were blown away - it is truly an elegant, beautiful venue with so much character and plenty of space for our wedding. The venue was worth every penny, as they provided a fantastic list of preferred vendors that made our planning so simple. We are over the moon with how our special day turned out at Historic Venue 1902! I’d like to personally thank Adrianna and Aleisha! They truly made my first visit and final details meetings stress free and such an enjoyable journey!

I was sold on this venue during my initial search. After hours of research on wedding venues in the Orlando area, I kept coming back to this venue since it offers everything a couple could possibly need for their best day ever! Not only is the venue is unique and stunning with such rich history, but from a business perspective, the venue and their staff are really spectacular when it comes to event management. Highly recommend choosing vendor from their vendor list as well since these vendors work together constantly and truly know how to make wedding run smoothly. It was such a peace of mind working with this venue and their extended team for that reason! For example, we ended up selecting their option for all-inclusive catering (rentals) which was specific to the venue, and it was such a relief that the venue and catering company just took care of everything! I couldn't tell you how reassuring it was to speak with each of my vendors that already knew the lay of the land when it came to working with this venue so I didn't personally have to worry too much about logistics. The venue staff is also so kind and amazing to work with. You won't be disappointed booking your wedding there!
Response from vendor•Sep 17, 2025Shalon, thank you so much for your incredible review. We are delighted that the beauty and history of the venue captured your heart from the start and that the planning process felt so reassuring. It is wonderful to hear how much peace of mind our vendor team provided and that the catering and rentals made things seamless for you. Our staff loved being part of your celebration and we are so grateful you chose Historic Venue 1902 for your wedding. Wishing you both endless happiness as you begin this new chapter together. XOXO- The Historic Venue 1902 Team
