Thank you City Winery
Booking City Winery for our wedding was the best decision ever! We took our hard hat tour back in December 2017. The venue was under major construction and still had leftover furniture from the old Love Nightclub that occupied the building. Colleen did such a good job working with us and walking us through their vision for the space that we took a leap of faith and booked the venue for our October 2018 wedding. Colleen was patient, responsive and extremely helpful! I was planning the entire wedding by myself with no planner and Colleen worked with me through every question and/or concern that I had. I honestly couldn't have gotten through the planning process without her guidance. Unfortunately, Colleen left City Winery a few weeks before our wedding day but she informed me that I was in good hands with Brittany. I was a bit nervous about our POC changing right before the wedding but Brittany was awesome! The transition was seamless! Brittany helped me finalize all the details and kept my mind at ease. She understood my vision and executed the entire wedding perfectly. She worked with all my vendors to ensure that everything was set up just the way I wanted it. Honestly, I was blown away. The end result exceeded my expectations. Brittany made me feel so comfortable and was such a pleasure to work with!

The venue itself was beautiful. We booked the 3rd floor Wine Garden for our ceremony/reception and the 4th floor Rooftop for cocktail hour. We received so many compliments from our guests about the food (dinner was amazing), alcohol (open bar), friendly staff, beautiful venue and just the entire wedding overall. Thank you Brittany and City Winery for such a wonderful experience!

5 Stars all around! We held our wedding at CW's Wine Garden last weekend. It was amazing! From meeting and taking a hard-hat tour in February, booking the venue, and the day of our wedding, Colleen was super-responsive, helpful and kept us on track as far as planning goes. On our wedding day, from the moment we arrived, getting ready in the bridal suite, first look photos, ceremony and reception, the staff was truly first-class! Colleen and her team did an excellent job executing all of the details surrounding the big day. THANK YOU GUYS!
