Amazing venue!

We held our wedding at Brick and Mortar and when I tell you they're the best possible venue choice you could find, I'm not lying. The entire planning process was seamless, wonderful, fun, helpful, and flexible. The venue is BEAUTIFUL, spacious, and has a on-site bridal suite and grooms suite. The balcony second floor was the perfect place for us to hold our cocktail hour while the ceremony space was flipped to the reception. They offer food/catering and bar services although you don't have to book through them, I don't know why you wouldn't. The catering was some of the BEST food I've ever eaten in my life (shoutout Craig) and the menu is completely customizable. When we wanted customized appetizers for cocktail hour, Craig sat down with us to create the exact passable apps that we were looking for. The dinner was served buffet style, and was delicious and hot. I'm still dreaming about the pesto ravioli and sirloin!!! Bernice was our main contact for planning purposes and she was so friendly and sweet that I seriously squealed when I saw her two different times on wedding day. My bridesmaids were obsessed with the bartender, Lorenzo, and I found the bar packages to be very fairly priced especially considering that it included the staff and the glassware. I cannot say enough good things about Brick and Mortar Events and if you choose them for your wedding venue you will NOT regret it, trust me!!

Highly Recommend!

If you're looking for a venue to host your celebration, you can stop looking and choose Brick & Mortar. We celebrated our wedding here and it was everything I could have imagined and more. My husband & I toured many venues and nothing felt right until we made our last stop at Brick & Mortar. Immediately we knew it was the place for our wedding, it's gorgeous, classic, and welcoming. Then when we spoke to Bernadette & Jerry and it only reinforced our decision to move forward. They are experts at what they do and are so kind & helpful. I didn't feel overwhelmed wedding planning because they give great advice & know how to run the day of schedule.

- The venue is beautiful. It's simple and easy. The ceremony happens on the first floor, cocktail hour on the 2nd floor, & the reception back on the first floor. It's such easy transitions & the team does a great job.
- The food is amazing!! All our guests raved about the food. We wish we could have Jerry's food all the time. We will definitely use their catering services for future events.
- The staff are friendly and professional. They took care of our guests and us as if we were family. Special shout-out to Ms. Patti!
- Bernadette & Jerry know what they are doing. Wedding planning can feel overwhelming but don't worry, Brick & Mortar will make it a seamless day
- They own McWades Inn which is a 5 minute walk from the venue. We and our families stayed there and it was incredible. Our families loved spending time together in such a beautiful home. Truly that Inn is so beautiful and spacious. We took our getting ready photos there

I can go on and on about Brick & Mortar. We had the most perfect wedding there. I'm so grateful to their team. Our friends say we threw the wedding of the year but truly, we didn't do much! Jerry, Bernadette, & their team made it happen.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
