The setting and the Vendor and staff were absolutely awesome

This venue provided a perfect setting and did not disappoint as my bride of 55 years and I chose to renew our vows with a significant group of people who gathered to celebrate our many blessings. It was perfect setting [outdoors no less] with the flexibility to move inside if necessary. Our host was ahead of us and ready "behind us" should that have been necessary. She anticipated our every need and addressed details we never tho't of . She and her team were awesome.
The proof was in the, no not the pudding, but in the response of all our guests, who repeatedly during the event and for days after it, made it clear to us how much they had enjoyed our time together at Story Hill Firehouse!

Beautiful Venue

We can not say enough amazing things about StoryHill Firehouse and the amazing staff! Our April wedding was absolutely amazing and made perfect by the venue and Amy’s amazing recommendations and patience. Amy relieved so much of my stress on my wedding day in the bridal suit I was laying and resting instead of a huge ball of nerves and worry. It was perfect. The Venue is breathtaking and definitely a conversation piece itself. Our guests could not stop complimenting the venue and enjoyed finding the pieces of history elegantly placed within. 10/10 would hands down recommend Storyhill firehouse to anyone for any occasion

Itnfelt like family!

The Venue is beautiful and would be perfect for a rehearsal dinner or wedding. The large doors make it easy to enjoy the outside but still be in the venue hall.
