Everything was just perfect for my daughter's wedding reception. I was so pleased with the venue, the staff, the bartenders, the decorations, etc. It was a great place to celebrate such a wonderful event.

Zen was the perfect venue for our wedding ceremony. It's a clean, artsy space and it was just right for our day. The staff there is super helpful and did everything to make us comfortable. I would highly recommend Zen for your special event needs.

We had our wedding reception at Zen in October. The venue accommodated our guests in a way that allowed them enough space but also created an intimate environment. The staff was extremely knowledgeable and professional. They orchestrated a beautiful event that we enjoyed by us as well as our guests. We felt completely at easy with the staff taking care of the details the night of the reception, which allowed us to enjoy it. The venue itself is beautiful! It was worth every penny. We would recommend anyone to work with Jeff, Nancy, and his entire staff! Hopefully we can plan an event there again in the future.

We had our daughter's reception at zen. It was a very enjoyable and classy venue. I wouldn't change a thing about it. We loved it.

We held our wedding reception at Zen and it was amazing. The Lotus Lounge is perfect with the color-changing lighting and modern artwork on the walls. We loved the brick details and very high ceilings. The bar staff were amazing serving delicious drinks all night. Everything turned out perfect and Nancy is fantastic to work with. We highly recommend Zen for your next event.

This was a great venue for a rehearsal and the size party we had (about 85). Staff was very professional and helpful. Most importantly there were absolutely no surprises! A perfect venue for a rehearsal dinner.

It was fairly easy to work with the people at Zen; they have a lot of knowledge and experience. However, communication and clarity was sometimes a problem. We agreed beforehand that the venue would cut the cake, but the person working on the night (who was not our main contact) said that he hadn't been told that, and had no plates to serve the cake on. The caterers ended up having to do it at the last minute, and the bride had to take some time out of the night to sort out the issue. There was also a miscommunication about the linens: when told that linens were provided, we assumed that these included napkins. But one week before the wedding we were informed (by the caterers, not by Zen) that it didn't, and that no arrangements for napkins had been made. I would work with Zen again, but you need to be very clear about your needs and keep in close touch with them to make sure you're not dealing with a number of small details on the night of your wedding.

The guys at Zen were extremely nice and incredibly easy to work with. From our very first walk through to the day of my wedding, they were extremely helpful. They assisted us in finding a florist (and she was amazing) as well as renting extra tables and chairs. If I ever had a question I just shot them an email and always heard back within the hour. They were also very flexible with us, allowing us to come by several times before the event to get everything in order. Their venue is absolutely georgeous and requires little to no decorating. Since our wedding I've gotten so many compliments from our guest about how much they loved the venue, as well as comments from Facebook friends who did not attend but saw pictures. I would definitely recommend Zen to anyone planning an event!

Zen is a unique space for hire. The staff was prompt, attentive and gracious. Cameron Poole was especially great to work with!

Zen was absolutely wonderful. The staff there was always helpful and were great when it came to suggestions and recommendations for decorations and other plans. They were very accommodating and the venue is beautiful both outside and in. Since they knew most of the vendors we were working with, we didn't have to worry about them coordinating with each other and they took care of much of the setup the morning of the wedding. They provided us with amazing service and truly seemed to care about our happiness with the actual event. I highly recommend them!

This is a beautiful venue. It went above and beyond our expectations. You get a lot for your money here. Nancy was so wonderful! She took a lot of stress off of me and assisted with everything I needed in a timely manner. I highly recommend Zen for any occasion! Thank you so much Zen for your professionalism and such a beautiful memory!

Thank you to Jeff and crew for providing the perfect venue for my wedding. From the patio for the ceremony to the Lounge for our reception ~ everything was perfect!

We held our wedding reception at Zen in March. We had approx. 500 guests and rented out both rooms. We were looking for somewhere trendy, different, and beautiful. I could not imagine a place more perfect - from the staff to the decor to the layout of the facility - Zen had everything we were wanting, and more!
Cameron, Jeff, and the rest of the staff were always there to help with any questions we had while planning and had wonderful ideas to contribute! Their experience and creativity helped make our reception go so smoothly.
The location of Zen was prime. We used their shuttles to transport guests from the parking lots to Zen. This was great, especially for the older crowd (or the girls with uncomfy shoes)!
The industrial - modern style of Zen was perfect. From the high ceilings, to large glass windows, to murals and even the gorgeous bathrooms - Zen was not only beautiful, but UNIQUE. We did very little decorating and played up the large windows with votives. I still have people commenting on how beautiful everything was. We set food up in both rooms, had a bar in each room, and our guests loved roaming around to find new things. The balcony overlooked the dance floor and was perfect for guests that wanted to see everything going on.
The patio area was beautiful. The side entrance made a wonderful exit as our guests could all line up to send us on our way!
Zen was absolutely perfect and I would recommend Zen to ANYONE for ANY occasion. The staff is amazing, the atmosphere is wonderful, and the decor is breath-taking.

On Jan 14, 2011 we hosted our rehearsal dinner at Zen in Greenville, SC. To say we were pleased is an understatement! The venue, the staff's attention to the minutest detail was exemplary. Being from out of town (Birmingham, Al) made planning frightful until we booked Zen to host our event. We were totally pleased and made to feel comfortable. The chef from Good Life Catering prepared our meal for 110 guests, and it was flawless and made to order for each of us. I have nothing but the highest praise for the outcome of our event and the details leading up to it. I highly recommend Jeff and his staff at Zen in Greenville, SC if you are planning any occasion large or small!
Very Sincerely,
Mrs. Janet Turman (a truly satisfied customer)

Both the ceremony and reception for my daughter's wedding were held at Zen. The size and flexibility of the space made it the perfect venue for both.

Beautiful event, great staff!
