This venue is beautiful and left all of our guests speechless. The food was great and they catered it exactly how we wanted it. I would tell all brides to consider having your ceremony and/or reception in this gorgeous place!

Perfect Wedding Day
Choosing to have our wedding at Founders Hall was the best decision my husband and I made when planning our wedding. The space is breathtaking and seeing it all come together the day of the wedding was a fairytale for me. Jenny was our contact throughout the process - she was quick to respond and very accommodating to my husband and I, as well as to my in-laws. She even threw in the ivory drapes for us (we had booked before these were included) after having some last-minute cancellations, and this made the evening so much more beautiful and elegant. Mariah was there the day of the wedding to ensure everything went smoothly and did a fantastic job. The venue was priced very reasonably for its location in the heart of the city and its beauty. The food at Aria was spectacular and people are still commenting 3 weeks later about how good their meals were. We are so grateful to the Aria at Founders Hall staff for making our wedding the best day of our entire lives. Founders Hall will forever hold a special place in our hearts and we will be back to visit often. The photos are also so incredible in this space!
