    Histroric, Unique Venue

    Worked here as a photographer for the first time in late winter 2020, loved the creative opportunities provided by the space, and also enjoyed working with the staff. Looking forward to working here again!

    Unique and beautiful!

    As a photographer, I love when my clients choose unique spaces to get married in and New Hazlett is one of the best! It's always a blast to shoot there and pushes my creativity in new ways each time I'm there. The staff has always been so easy to work with and they support any and all ideas that will ultimately benefit the couple and their wedding day experience. 10/10 recommend!

    DJ

    Amber and the staff were fantastic to work with! I DJ'd a wedding earlier in the year there and I was blown away of how we were treated. As a vendor we normally don't get the red carpet treatment but it sure felt that way when we arrived. Thanks again to everyone at the Hazlett Theater and can't wait to work with you again!

    The most perfect venue for our day!

    Hosting our wedding at the New Hazlett Theater was a total dream. When looking for a venue for our reception, we were seeking a place that reflected our personalities. It's so hard to find a unique venue with character and history, and the space itself is all of that! It was so fun to be able to celebrate our wedding in a place where we had previously attended shows. The theater is unique yet timeless, and we were thrilled that we could spend part of our wedding day there. Beyond that, working with the team there was such a seamless and amazing experience. From our first meeting the team made me feel so taken care of - it was like meeting trusted friends. They were so easygoing and friendly, and brainstorming ideas with them was so fun. Every little detail was just as I had envisioned. It was so important that we worked with business that aligned with our personalities but also values as well, and we absolutely found that in the team at New Hazlett Theater. Our wedding day was so special as it was the only time in our lives that everyone we love and care about most will be together under one roof - and hosting it at the New Hazlett Theater made it EVEN MORE special.
