Our Amazing Wedding Reception

We were married 9-29-18 and I could kick myself for not posting this sooner but life happens!! 425 made our event absolutely perfect!! They took my vision and brought it to life. The food was fantastic as was the bar & dinner service. We did a buffet style dinner but we were given 5 STAR treatment through the entire event. As the guests of honer your taken in 10 directions at once and these folks took care of every person at every table and we lacked nothing. They made our day perfect and we were told by several guests the only bad thing was that the evening had to come to an end. Wonderful memories that will last a lifetime!! Don't go anywhere else. This is the best spot in the 417 for any event!!

Beautiful venue

It’s a lovely venue with a nice all-inclusive package. You pick your menu and don’t have to worry about a thing. Beautiful linens, bar service, cake cutting, champagne uncorking, wait staff, china, chargers, table set up & year down...all including at a reasonable price point. All in a street level, easily accessible, downtown venue. Perfect!

when i first started planning my wedding, 425 Downtown was a little difficult to deal with. Their coordinator kept changing, and while i would be talking with one person one day about prices and packages, the next day that person would no longer be employed with the company. Finally, Rebekah Shockey took over the details, and i was getting answers, and responses, and everything started running smoothly. One less stress for a DIY bride to deal with! the icing on the cake though, was Julie. Julie was the coordinator on site the day of the wedding. SHE WAS AMAZING! we had an issue with the flowers, and she fixed it. we had a forgotten bouguet and she whipped one up in no time, and was just finishing the ribbon on it as i was getting ready to walk down the aisle. she made sure everything looked perfect, and ran smoothly, and even made sure my train looked perfect when i walked. amazing is the only word that describes her, and she is the main reason that i gave the venue so many stars.

This venue is absolutely gorgeous with a true downtown feel. It has its own parking lot so my guests didn't have to worry about finding parking downtown. The food was amazing and my guests raved about it!! The staff was fantastic from playing our slideshow for us, working with our other vendors, and even making sure my guests were catered to! I couldn't imagine working with anyone else. A fabulous group of people who are committed to making your wedding outstanding and easy!

I was so impressed with everything 425 Downtown did for our wedding day. The food far exceeded our expectations. Our guests would not stop raving about how tender the cabernet marinated beef tips were. We also did a garlic Alfredo that was delicious too! The staff went above and beyond. We found out last minute that a guest was allergic to garlic and Tori sent a staff member to personally pick up a special order for our guest so that she could eat. Aside from the catering and the phenomenal staff, the venue is absolutely breathtaking. I am so happy that I chose this venue. I highly, highly recommend it to everyone!!!

425 Downtown was the perfect wedding venue. The room itself is beautiful enough to not need a lot of decorations. However, once we added our own touches, it was even more gorgeous. Tori was fantastic since the moment I booked this venue. She was very flexible and willing to answer all of my questions. My many, many questions.
My husband was unsure at first but we finally decided to go with the all-inclusive package that 425 offers. I am so happy that we did! I had absolutely no worries about catering! The food was amazing and our guests were very pleased. The entire 425 staff made sure that our big day went as smoothly as possible. Before I walked down the aisle, one of the bartenders even fixed my train. My husband didn't want to see me before the wedding and they helped me sneak around without seeing him! The staff made sure that my husband and I did not go thirsty throughout the night. They really went above and beyond.
If you want a venue that provides a downtown, industrial, and romantic look, 425 is for you. I think it would be extremely difficult to find a better venue that provides delicious food and tremendous service at such an affordable price.

Love this venue, we're sorta biased because it's right around the corner from our studio BUT, it's truly a unique space that offers great reception and even ceremony photography…wood floors and that old vintage feel of aged brick and mortar walls…we LOVE it and you will too! One of our top three venue choices to shoot reception photos in.
