Amazing Venue!

The Sheldon was a beautiful place for our wedding reception. We had the atrium for the cocktail hour and the ballroom for the reception. Our guests loved that they could explore the art galleries during the cocktail hour! The ballroom is also naturally beautiful and the lighting makes the space feel so romantic. As if the venue wasn't enough, Rachel, Jennifer, and Megan were absolutely amazing to work with. They were responsive, flexible, and helpful. They made planning the reception easy, which is quite a feat! I cannot thank them enough for providing us such a great experience and I cannot recommend them enough for anyone looking for a venue!

The Sheldon Concert Hall was the perfect venue for my wedding. We had both the ceremony and the reception there. Everything was perfect. The event coordinator, Rachel, is very nice and helpful. She made sure all my questions were answered and helped me throughout the process. The day of staff were incredibly professional and kind. They clearly had a system down and were effective at implementing it.

The ceremony took place in the concert hall itself. Beautiful. After the ceremony, guests were shown to the atrium area for cocktail hour. They are also able to tour the art gallery, which we thought was a nice touch.

After cocktail hour they were escorted up the elevator to the Ballroom (the Sheldon has two reception rooms, we choose the Ballroom). The Ballroom is beautiful and is just the right size for our guests. They had plenty of room on the dance floor and the buffet and photo booth were off to the sides- easily accessible but not the center of attention!

They offer free parking, huge getting ready rooms for both the bride and the groom, and because there was not an event the night before, we were able to go early on Friday and drop all our stuff off and start setting up! The Friday staff were very helpful in making sure that everything was how I wanted it. That was a huge stress reliever. The day of, I just had to go get ready and not worry about a thing.

I had numerous guests compliment the venue. I highly recommend it!

We hosted our wedding reception on the 4th Floor Ballroom at the Sheldon. We couldn't have chosen a better place to celebrate! Our event manager (Rachel) was wonderful to work with and always responded in a quick manner. She would go out of her way to make sure that we had the things that we needed for our big day and never once hesitated to show us the Ballroom and the rest of the hall (many times prior to the wedding). As well, our event facility manager and his crew were professional, attentive, friendly, and made sure the entire night went smoothly. If we had to do our wedding again, we would definitely choose the Ballroom all over again!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
