Our maximum capacity for receptions is 200 guests.

This allows for a comfortable layout including dining tables, dance floor, and guest movement throughout the space. If you’re planning a smaller event, the space can also be arranged to feel intimate and cozy while still giving you room to celebrate!

When you rent our space, your package includes:

• Tables and chairs

• Full setup and teardown

• Post-event cleaning

• Access to both indoor and outdoor spaces

• On-site support from our venue team

We handle the heavy lifting so you can focus on enjoying your celebration. The space will be ready for your vendors when they arrive, and we’ll take care of cleanup once the event concludes.

There is a large complimentary parking lot located directly next to the event space for you and your guests.

The lot is located on the east side of the building as you enter from the street, making arrival and departure easy and convenient.

We offer comfortable, private spaces on-site for getting ready:

• A dedicated Bridal Suite

• A separate Groom’s Room

• A nursery space for little ones if needed

There is plenty of room for your wedding party and immediate family to relax, prepare, and enjoy the day before the celebration begins!
