Exceptional Venue Space!
The Gardens at Queen City Center is a blank slate, which leaves ALL the room in the world to create whatever your heart desires! Disco balls, draping, live plants and florals, balloon installations, if you can dream it, they can do it! Plenty of room for live music, photo booth, DJ, food stations, or unique vendors like wedding painters or even food trucks, too. No matter the event you're hosting, the Gardens at Queen City Center can is certainly a great venue option with an incredibly caring and attentive staff.

Vendor Love!
There’s so much I could say about the Gardens at the Queen City Center! I had the honor of being asked to collab on their open house by doing the florals and it was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had as a vendor. Our vendor/venue relationship has become so special to me mostly because of the people. The staff behind the scenes with the Gardens at the Queen City Center is next level. As a vendor, I think it’s not just important from a business aspect to be professional and kind but from a human standpoint as well. The people that run things over there are not just kind and professional, but they’re just extremely decent human beings. If you were considering having your wedding or event here, DO IT! In addition to it being such a cool and customizable space, the care they take with you is exactly the kind of experience that you want to have on your big day. I can’t wait to work with you all again. :)

Modern Elegant Urban Events
The Gardens at Queen City Center is quite a versatile venue! The various spaces - Big Brick Lounge, Front Room, Studio A - are all perfect for accommodating a range of guest counts and types of events. The clean modern look inside and out is well suited to corporate events and upscale weddings alike. When booking with The Gardens at QCC, you're not only getting a stellar team to help with all the day-of coordination, you're also getting the option to be connected to the vibrant downtown Manchester community and all it has to offer. Having amazing vendors such as Harpoon, Clyde's Cupcakes, Barre Life, and City Club Golf all under the same roof at Queen City Center is an added bonus as well! Being steps away from the local hotels is convenient for all your guests too. Inside Studio A, the modern industrial space provides a sleek canvas to curate any event to your preferences. With versatile lighting, extra rooms for getting ready in, cocktail hour space, and a commercial kitchen for caterers, this venue space is well equipped to provide a memorable event for you and your guests. I highly recommend booking a tour today to see all the possibilities that The Gardens at Queen City Center can offer for your event!
