Whether your dream occasion is an intimate soirée or a grand celebration, Common House will help bring your vision to life.
Facilities and Capacity
The property offers picturesque private event spaces for both indoor and outdoor celebrations. Couples are invited to choose from our three event spaces or pair them all together to create a natural flow: a ceremony in the Garden, cocktail hour in Pennybacker, and reception in Ruby Hall.
- Ruby Hall, the flagship venue, accommodates parties from 20 to 300+, where natural lighting, exposed brick, and chandeliers fill the space with a rare ambiance. The mezzanine level gives newlyweds a bird's-eye view of their celebration, and the built-in stage provides a natural location for a live band or DJ.
- Pennybacker is a more intimate gathering space, providing a unique setting for first looks, cocktail hours, or even ceremonies. Use it as a stop on your itinerary, or plan your entire day around its grand beams and original tile work.
- Finally, for a breath of fresh air, the Garden is your spot. Host on-site ceremonies, cocktail hours, and outdoor parties for up to 250 seated or 300+ for a cocktail-style reception. The venue also offers six on-site guest rooms and a luxurious Bridal Suite, providing the perfect space for you and your wedding party to stay and prepare for the festivities.

Review summary
Common House is a highly recommended wedding venue with a beautiful atmosphere and exceptional service. The staff, including Rebecca, are praised for their attentiveness and helpfulness throughout the planning process and on the day of the event. Reviewers were impressed with the quality of the food, the variety of venue spaces, and the overall seamless execution of their weddings. The venue's unique architecture and European touches were also highly acclaimed. Guests had a wonderful experience at Common House and highly recommended it for weddings.
Can't say enough good things
Common House makes wedding planning and wedding execution painless and easy because of its team, space, in-house bar/catering and things included in your rental fee that would otherwise be very costly (like the beautiful wooden tables and chairs in every space, rather than paying crazy cash for cheap plastic tables that require table cloths). I could go on forever. Can't say enough kind words about this place or its people or experiences there before, during, and even after our wedding!
The perfect venue for our wedding
The most incredible venue!
