Artifact Events is amazing! We had our wedding ceremony in the courtyard and reception in the south ravenswood room. It was absolutely gorgeous! The venue is so beautiful with its exposed wood beams, brick walls, and unique accents. We really didn't have to add too much decor to the space! And don't get me started on how stunning the courtyard is for a wedding reception – it truly exceeded our expectations. There is also plenty of free parking right outside the venue which was so helpful for some of our guests coming in from the suburbs. We knew right away that this was our wedding venue the minute we walked in!

The Artifact Events team was also wonderful to work with – specifically Christine! She was always so responsive and helpful in answering all of our questions. She was extremely thorough during our final walkthrough and allowed us to drop all of our decor off the day before our wedding (which eliminated so much stress the day of). The bartenders provided to us through Artifact were also amazing! So many of our guests actually told us how much they enjoyed talking to them during our reception. We absolutely loved having our wedding at Artifact and would do it again in a heartbeat! THANK YOU to Christine and the rest of the team!!

We had our April 2023 wedding in the south venue of Artifact Events and it was absolutely perfect. Jen was incredibly professional and friendly from the day of our first tour, throughout the entire planning process and the big day. She was always prompt to respond to my many emails and always willing to talk through any questions or thoughts I had. Artifact Events was also very accommodating to us and our vendors, willing to find solutions and help us set up everything how we wanted and making recommendations when requested.

The day of the wedding their staff were incredibly professional and helpful - they helped guide people around and answer any and all questions, assisted with all ADA accommodations requested by individual guests, and the bartenders were amazing - no long lines and people were able to quickly grab drinks and get on the dance floor!

Finally the space itself was beautiful - we had rainy weather and were able to do photos throughout the space before the ceremony. Our ceremony was beautiful with the soft light from the rainy day, and the layout provides a beautiful natural flow to the event. Every space made for a beautiful backdrop for our professional photos and the ones our guests took throughout the night.

In the end there is nothing I would have changed about having my wedding at Artifact Events - the entire experience was perfect, from the beauty of the venue to the professional and top tier service provided by the entire staff.

We can’t possibly say enough good things about artifact. Christine was so helpful throughout the entire process leading up and was very responsive to all my questions. She was very thorough on our final walk through and made sure everything was set up exactly how we pictured it. The bar staff at our wedding were professional and fun. Venue manager Pete checked in with us several times throughout the night to make sure we had everything we needed. The venue is so beautiful and our photos are amazing. This was the perfect venue for us and we had so much fun.

We are so thrilled that we chose Artifact Events for our wedding ceremony and reception. Christine and her team were always ready to answer our questions and give suggestions about what would work best for our wedding in the AE space. The staff was extremely helpful on our wedding day and the bar team was wonderful during our reception. We can't recommend Artifact Events enough!

Artifact Events was the PERFECT venue for my wife and I to get married in on 3/7/2020. Everyone who works there has been such a pleasure to work with and made our entire process easy. We used the North Atrium and it was honestly our favorite thing about our whole wedding. All of our guests loved the industrialized look; it was so romantic and comfortable for our guest count of 175. Christine was very enjoyable and professional to work with. It helps that our vendors all worked in the space before - we did not have to worry about a thing before we arrived. We highly recommend using this venue!

Our venue search was pretty much over before it began - as soon as we walked in, my fiance saw the look on my and my sister's face and knew that everywhere else was going to pale in comparison. Lucky for us, it was everything we needed, and at a comparable/reasonable price for a venue that can hold 200 in the city. Sachiko was responsive and professional, and was proactive about communicating changes to the space as it transitioned from being an antique store to solely an event space. The space is accessible, felt both bustling but not too crowded at 175 people (200 might have felt a bit tight but manageable), and they were very flexible about dropping in to look at the space, dropping wedding items off the day before, etc. My only drawback is that it is a little dark - and the additional lighting that pretty much every wedding example that we looked at in the space will add about $2000 to your budget. Otherwise, it was an absolutely perfect space that was unique, impressive and just what we had in mind for a city wedding! (Beautiful photography by Angela Renee Photography)

We had our daughter's September wedding and reception at AE and it was absolutely perfect. It's an amazing magical space with an urban chic feel, exposed brick and super high ceilings; the perfect backdrop for our event. We had the ceremony outside in the courtyard, followed by cocktail hour in the lounge area off the courtyard. The dinner and dancing was in the atrium on the north side of the space, with sit down dinner and a large dance area. Christine and Micah were both very professional and easy to work with, and the entire event was perfect. We really lucked out with the weather and were able to have the ceremony outside but one of the things I really liked about AE is the rain plan would have required no compromises. There are several indoor ceremony options that are all viable and beautiful.

This was a fabulous venue for us. Unique, Fun, and Spacious. The staff is very helpful, Rachel is the director of the venue and is super nice and easy to work with. She definitely put us at ease. She has been in the wedding industry for quite some time and helped us to feel confident in our vendors. After our wedding we have gotten tons and tons of compliments on the venue, people were very impressed. And, our band sounded great with the high ceilings!

Our wedding at Architectural Artifacts was more that we could have hoped for!! We used both the atrium space and the new loft space for our ceremony and reception. The sequence of events flowed wonderfully through the space and didn't require any "flipping" of rooms. We picked this venue because of it's unique character and the wonderful assortment of artifacts. For decor we added very little and let the venue's beautiful artifacts take center stage. I would note that since this is an operational store, artifacts and layout are likely to change from the date you book until the actual event, we loved that aspect of the space as it was constantly changing. A couple looking for everything to exactly a certain way should be aware of this going in. We experienced a staff change a couple months before our wedding and the transition was handled very professionally, the new staff did a wonderful job of catering to our needs and coordinating with our vendors on the day of.

Jamie at Atrium Events coordianed my daughter's wedding in Dec 2012 at Architectural Artifacts. We knew the venue would be asweome, what we didn't know was how wonderful Jamie would be and how much extra effort and care she put into getting everything just the way my daugheter and her fiance wanted it. Everyone who attended was woed and we have had soooo many compliments on the wedding venue, decor, etc.
