Read moreI had my wedding here in June. When I first reserved the place they were great. Then 2 weeks before my wedding I went to walk through and they were 40 minutes late to are meeting.

Read moreWe rented this space for my daughters wedding. The staff was amazing to work with and went above and beyond to help with everything.
The space was perfect, it has so much history in such a little area. They did a great job on keeping the authenticity of it while making it elegant as well.
It is priced so you can afford to rent it and feel like you get a great value. I highly recommend using them. We have another event to do in a few months and I will definitely consider using this place again.
Love love love this...
