    Rehearsal Dinner

    Zen was perfect for our rehearsal dinner. Cameron was extremely helpful throughout the process. Zen provided upbeat and social atmosphere which is what we were looking for.

    Beautiful venue and wonderful staff!

    Even though I did not end up booking with Zen, I would like to highly commend Cameron for how she treated us during our venue search. She gave us an excellent tour and was very willing to work with us afterwards. We genuinely felt her care for us as potential clients, something we didn’t experience everywhere we went.

    We ultimately chose another venue that we felt was a slightly better fit for our vision and needs, but Zen was a top contender. It has a cool vibe, oodles of space, beautiful built-in paper lantern decorations hanging from a portion of the ceiling, a wonderful bridal party crash room/green room, built-in bar, a lovely outdoor deck and patio with bistro lighting, and the additional Lotus Lounge room that would serve as a great contingency plan (in case of rain) for an outdoor cocktail hour originally planned for the garden. We felt the venue was competitively priced. I also know for a fact that the space is a great place for a party—I attended my prom there several years earlier and had a great time.

    If you’re looking at Zen, ask Cameron to show you pictures on her iPad during your tour! Zen has a Google Photos album that is full of pictures from past events to provide you ample inspiration for your special day.

    Thank you, Cameron and Zen!

    Best Event Ever!

    Our experience at Zen Venue was awesome. Great communication from Cameron, and the space was set up perfectly. We did not have to worry about a thing. All of the bartenders and workers were so nice during our event. We will definitely use them again in the future!

    Zen Greenville's reply:

    Carson- Thank you so much for your kind words! Yall were a pleasure to work with! We wish you and Catherine so much happiness! Congratulations again!

    Best Venue Ever

    The aesthetic of this venue was what sold us. It’s industrial and beautiful. Jeff, the owner was so helpful everytime we met with him. Cameron was also super responsive to any questions I had. Jenn was the one who worked our wedding and I cannot stress enough how wonderful she is. She was sweet, caring, and helpful all day. Zen is a gem. Being so close to falls park made this venue that much better.

    Zen Greenville's reply:

    Thank you so much Heather! You were a pleasure to work with and a big congratulations to yall! We hope you are enjoying married life.
    Happy Holidays!

    Perfect venue!!

    100% recommend Zen for any event! We booked this venue for our wedding 7/31 and everything was perfect! 10/10 for the location, the service, and the event spaces. We were able to have a ceremony, cocktail hour, and a reception all in one building! I emailed with Cameron a lot during our wedding process and she was always very responsive and accommodating to our needs! We were so appreciative to have Jennifer at our rehearsal and wedding. She literally went above and beyond for whatever we needed! Thank you so much Jennifer for dealing with all our craziness! Last but not least, Ronnie our bartender was amazing! We've heard so many compliments from our guests about how great Ronnie was! Thank you all for an amazing wedding!

    Excellent!

    Jeff, the owner and his staff were professional, courteous, accommodating and friendly. They worked incredibly hard. All were hands on with anything that was needed. The event space was beautiful. Zen exceeded our expectations!

    I love Zen! The venue is gorgeous and it's perfect for any style wedding. The staff is professional and very helpful. My favorite part is the bridal suite in the upstairs loft. Perfect for getting ready with your bridesmaids!

    Zen Greenville's reply:

    Thank you Courtney! We are so glad to hear that you enjoyed everything. The bridal Suite upstairs is really so great to have when having your wedding here on site! Congratulations again!

    The Best Venue!

    Zen was amazing! We had last minute changes due to COVID-19 and booked them 1 month before our wedding date. They had staff to move tables and chairs and the venue is so beautiful! They were super quick to respond and even provided cell phone numbers for key people. I'll absolutely use them again.

    Zen Greenville's reply:

    Thank you Aliyah for your kind words! We very much enjoyed working with you guys even among all the craziness happening around us! We hope married life is treating yall well! Congratulations again!

    Wonderful Venue

    Cameron and the rest of the staff at Zen made the day perfect. The venue is incredibly beautiful with wonderful decorating choices by the owner. It has a great layout for outside and inside weddings and accomodated everything they needed to for COVID-19. They are great at communication, answering any questions you have and understand what it takes to make a successful, well run wedding. Thank you so much!

    Perfect Wedding Venue

    The Zen is the perfect wedding venue, especially if you want to hold the ceremony and reception in one place, which all of the guests truly loved! The venue is very spacious, has a lovely bridal suite, and is already beautifully decorated. Cameron was an absolute pleasure to work with during the planning phase. She was very responsive, personable and accommodating. In addition, all of the Zen support staff on the day of the wedding were outstanding! Everyone truly helped make the planning process and the wedding day stress free.

    Easy to work with

    Zen was awesome to work with for my wedding. They were very easy with the process and wanted to help out wherever they could. The staff on the day of was the best! They checked on us throughout the night.

    Excellent venue with a superb staff!

    My daughter's wedding reception was held in this fabulous venue and we could not have been more pleased! From our very first visit the owner Jeff and his event planner Cameron went out of their way to accommodate our every need. The caterer, the band, and the florist all told us up front that Zen is one of their favorite venues because they are so easy to work with and now I know why! The reception went off without a hitch. They provided ample bar tenders so there were no long lines at the bar and our every request was taken care of. I highly recommend!

    Zen Greenville's reply:

    Thank you, Valerie, for your kind words! You all were such a pleasure to work with and we are so glad everyone had a wonderful time. The space looked beautiful that evening! We hope married life is treating your daughter and her husband well! Thank you again!

    Well taken care of

    We worked with Jeff and he was wonderful. He provided us with all of the information we needed and met with us and worked with us to get things just right. We used his recommended vendor list and the day of everything went smoothly. The facility itself is beautiful so you don't need to add a lot of decoration to have a beautiful event. I'd say one of my most favorite parts of this facility is the bridal suite. One of the downsides to the facility is that the onsite parking is limited so if a lot of guests are planning to drive, you may need to set up with Zen to reserve spots in a nearby parking garage. Also there are no shots allowed in the facility however, they do have beer and wine service as well as liquors served in non-shot form! Probably a good thing since you don't want people getting completely plastered. We would definitely recommend Zen!

    Unbelievable - My daughters wedding was misplaced by hurricane Florence. She had 10 days to find a new venue. She contacted Geoff at Zen. What a miracle worker. No only did he open up his facility but his heart, generosity, and personal touch. I am not sure Geoff can truly understand what he was able to do for my daughter and in turn did for my wife and I - for this we are truly grateful. I know you should never give 5 stars because no one is perfect but anything less would be a disservice to Geoff and Zen.

    Zen was an amazing venue for our wedding ceremony and reception of over 200 guests. I was apprehensive about the space and Cameron assured me that everything would be perfect, and it was! The staff were very accommodating and made sure our day was top notch. Definitely would recommend any bride to take a look at Zen for their day!

    An beautiful contemporary venue, easily accessible in downtown Greenville. The staff is top notch and all vendor referrals by Jeff and Cameron were excellent. We used the lounge area for my son's rehearsal dinner which was perfect but there are additional inside/outside settings, as well. I highly recommend Zen and it's staff.

    My husband and I were just recently married and we had our entire event at Zen (ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception). From about 10 months prior, and leading up to the event, we had the absolute pleasure of working with the owner, Jeff, and the Marketing Manager, Cameron. Both were incredibly attentive to our desires, responsive to any and all questions (in a VERY timely fashion), and simply made the planning process a breeze! We had numerous guests come up and tell us that not only was it the best party they had been to in years, but they just loved the space in general! Patrick and I would certainly give Zen all the stars for our big day and will certainly be recommending it to all friends/family from the area!

    Zen was an incredible place for my daughters wedding reception. I couldn’t have been happier with the venue. Cameron was fabulous to work with! She was easy to contact and always responded quickly. Everyone who worked at Zen from Cameron to the bartenders and everyone in between. We could not have asked for a better place or better people.

    Cameron was FABULOUS! I am involved in a lot of corporate events, so I know what "good" looks like and I also know what "great" look like, ZEN is "Great." Cameron and Jeff are amazing. I had lots of venue choices for my sons rehersal dinner and I chose Zen because of location, professionalism and what was included in the price. No need to worry about tables, chairs, table clothes and plenty of staff to assist in your every need. Cameron and I talked about my needs, and every detail was meet. She actually called the week before my event to conduct a "dry run" with the video to make sure computer/iPad were compatiable... no issues on Friday night at the rehersal dinner. The morning before the event staff were there to assist in every way possible.
    If you are looking for a great place to have your event, do not hesitate, Cameron, Jeff and the staff at Zen will make sure your special event is everything you dreamed it would be.

    Had a great experience working with Jeff at Zen. So accommodating, flexible, and made our dream wedding venue a reality. Also pretty affordable and willing to be flexible. We had a great experience at Zen. I would definitely make sure you go over what is allowed and not allowed at the venue though in the contract. We booked a package deal that was custom made for us including food and venue. We worked with Zen and Seasons catering.

    Having our reception at Zen was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! Cameron was so easy to work with and always available to answer our questions and help plan the reception. We utilized both rooms at Zen and had plenty of space for our guests, food, bar, and band with dance floor. We also used the courtyard area which was perfect to take a second and escape from the noise and absolutely beautiful for pictures.
