    The Abraham Lincoln (Abraham Lincoln Events) was the perfect venue for our dream wedding. From the very beginning, the staff was detailed, understanding, and incredibly helpful. The manager, Diana, was our coordinator and she went above and beyond to ensure our special day was flawless. She helped us find an amazing decorator and DJ, and was there to support us through the entire planning process. The venue itself was huge, providing ample space for all of our guests to celebrate. We are so grateful to the team at The Abraham Lincoln for making our wedding day truly unforgettable.
