Beautiful and professional!
Apart from the great communication from Zach, the space itself is so gorgeous. It's a great blank canvas that has a really clean, urban feel in the heart of Little Italy (such a great location for guests!). We really appreciated the amenities of the building (nicely furnished groom suite, very cute bridal suite with a private bathroom, clean bathrooms for the guests, and air conditioning!) but also that we were able to bring in all of the other elements we wanted to personalize our event (tables, chairs, decor, etc.). We really appreciated the option of having our cocktail hour outdoors in the front parking lot while also keeping the giant doors open during the ceremony and reception to allow for a nice air flow to keep everyone safe and comfortable during the pandemic.
We loved having our wedding here and would definitely recommend it to any future couple!
