Great venue!
So happy we decided on Watson Block for our wedding venue. The pictures came out lovely, and Gaby is so easy to work with. Very communicative and knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend!
Fantastic Wedding Venue!
When we saw the price of the venue we thought, "we'll check it out, but there has to be something wrong with it." Boy were we proved wrong! The space is absolutely gorgeous - we barely had to decorate! And Gaby was great at communicating details and helping us through our big day. The 3rd floor was also a nice bonus - allowing us to store emergency items, take extra pictures, and providing a quiet spot for us to escape to when we needed some alone time. We've already recommended Watson Block to our friends (and anyone who says they're on the lookout for a wedding venue!). The only drawback would be since it is above a bar, there was a little residual noise from down below as the night progressed. This didn't negatively impact our experience, but should be noted if planning quieter events later in the evening (our ceremony was at 4pm with no distracting sounds from below).
Perfect wedding
We were married at Watson in August 2023 and loved everything about our day! The venue is beautiful and affordable. Our day went so smoothly due to the amazing staff. Gaby is an absolute gem! She has great communication and made sure even the smallest detail was handled. I would highly recommend Watson for any event needs.
Amazing experience
The whole Watson block team was amazing and answered every question I had along the way. They were so accommodating and able to get back to me within 24 hours most times. The space being in downtown made it easy for my out of town family to get to and it was an easy walk from our hotel block. We got the most beautiful pictures because of the amazing chandeliers and exposed brick. The guests had a great time and everyone loved the space. I had been hesitant because of the room flip but it was executed without a glitch! I would highly recommend Watson Block!
