I would give more than 5 stars if I could
In our wedding package we received help with planning, floral arrangements, officiant, dj, and photographer. Nicole made the entire wedding planning process so easy as well as made sure the wedding day went well. Nothing could’ve been better on our wedding day thanks to the Capitol employees. We will be back for any birthday party, anniversary and every event that requires a venue.

A truly magical night
We are still floating from the magic of our New Years Eve wedding, and so much of that is thanks to this extraordinary venue and its incredible team. From the moment guests arrived, we kept hearing, “I’ve never been to anything like this.” The space is truly one-of-a-kind, creating a striking, cinematic look that photographs beautifully and feels thoughtfully curated in every corner.
We used both the theatre for our wedding and the speakeasy for our rehearsal dinner, which was transformed into an unforgettable casino night. Each space had its own personality and wow factor, and together they created an experience that blew our guests away. Even now, we keep noticing small, brilliant touches in photos that worked together to make it the best night of our lives.
Nicole and her team deserve endless praise. She was accessible, proactive, and always one step ahead, which allowed us to relax and truly live in the moment on the big day.
And Heath is a true visionary. His gift for creating immersive, entertaining spaces and his passion for what he does shine through every design choice.
We’re already trying to invent another life event just so we can come back. If you want a venue that delivers not just a beautiful setting but an unforgettable experience your guests will talk about for years, this is it.

The most magical venue in Maryville
If you are looking for a wedding venue that does it all, THIS IS IT! Heath and Nicole do such an amazing job at making sure the experience is as magical as possible. From the moment you step into the building, it’s like walking back in time to a glamorous lobby that gets you excited for the wonders to come. Pictures of the theater will never do it justice. It’s beautiful, elegant, and will be sure to blow away all of your family and friends. They have it so food can all be arranged to be taken care of and served for less stress. Bartending was recently added into the packaging and our bartender was so kind and professional. The areas where the bridal parties get ready are just as elaborate and beautifully themed. When you give your music playlist to them, Heath makes the most amazing setlist with lights and visuals that will be sure to get all of your guests moving on the dance floor. Also, the coolest little coffee shop that you will be amazed by and never feel like you looked at everything. We cannot express how amazing this venue is, so definitely check it out for yourself to truly understand the awe and wonder!

The Most Magical Night of Our Lives!
Our wedding at this venue was truly a dream come true. From the moment we walked in, we knew it was the perfect place — and it absolutely exceeded every expectation. We spent around $12,000, which included the food, and it was worth every single penny. Between the romantic lighting, the fog machine, and the breathtaking chandelier above the stage, the atmosphere felt straight out of a fairytale.
Standing under that chandelier, surrounded by everyone we love, was one of the most beautiful and emotional moments of my life — both nerve-racking and so incredibly exciting.
The staff was beyond phenomenal, and Nicole deserves endless praise. She went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly and helped take so much stress off my shoulders the day of. Her calm energy, attention to detail, and genuine care made the whole planning process effortless and enjoyable.
If you’re looking for a venue that’s not only stunning but also comes with a team that truly cares about making your day perfect — this is the place. I can’t recommend it enough. Our wedding night was pure magic, and it’s all thanks to this amazing venue and the wonderful people behind it.

Most Beautiful Night of My Life
Nicole and her team made sure that I didn't lift a finger the entire day. The planning process with the team was seamless and I was confident that everything would go the way I wanted it to the day of. Having a DJ, wedding planner, and beautiful venue all included in the same price is unbeatable. The bride and groom suites are beautiful and perfect for photos!! I couldn't have dreamed of a better location for our wedding!

The best venue and best staff we could have hoped for!!
Cannot say enough how great this venue and its staff were. Nicole, the Venue Coordinator, ran this ship flawlessly, we were always ready for everything, and she checked up on us regularly in the run-up to our wedding. It alleviated all our stress, especially the day of!
The venue is just beautiful and unique, all we have heard about since our big night was how magical it all was! Highly recommended!!
