We had our 1940s/50s Americana-themed wedding reception here in October, and it was simply perfect! The space is large (we had 130+ people) and beautifully arranged with aviation decor. The upper mezzanine level was a great spot for our live swing band to play. Cullen and the rest of the staff were extremely friendly, helpful, and accommodating.

What an interesting place! It is also a special events venue. Let your...
