Best Wedding Venue

Boatwerks was amazing for our wedding on 4/6/24! The sales manager Hannah was fantastic at communicating with us and making sure everything would be set up to the way we wanted it throughout the planning process. The cost was definitely reflected accurately through the service and staff. The staff was very attentive and extremely nice, while the food was amazing. Our guests were raving how fantastic the food was throughout the night. I was not concerned at all throughout the day because I knew Boatwerks had everything under control. Our wedding day was flawless and we are so happy we had our wedding at Boatwerks! I highly recommend Boatwerks to anyone wanting a dream come true wedding!

With Boatwerks you cannot go wrong. They have a professional staff that can meet all of your needs. I attended a charity function (Humane Society) at their venue and we had spectacular food that was over the top. The room was gorgeous. I own my own event center and will be utilizing Boatwerks as one of our preferred caterers in the near future.
