Absolutely Amazing!

We knew we wanted to have our reception at the Attic when we first started planning. We loved the idea of being able to go to Watermen's and have the same meal we had at our wedding on our anniversary. Krysta was our event manager and she was just amazing! She answered all our questions very quickly and was fantastic adding last minute guests a week before the wedding. We ended up going with a cocktail hour and a platted dinner. It was almost overwhelming to choose items for the cocktail hour since none of them are on the menu for the restaurant downstairs and everything sounded so delicious. Dinner was a bit easier since nearly everything was on the menu downstairs and we'd tried it before. We were able to have our guests choose between three entrees, and they even made a special meal for my vegan guest. I don't think anyone finished their steak it was so large. The serving staff was just amazing! When we arrived we had a sampling of everything from cocktail hour at our table. We were so busy and elated that we hardly ate at the reception and the staff was amazing and boxed everything up for us so we could enjoy it when we got back to our hotel. The food was outstanding, which of course I would expect nothing less from Waterman's.

We were able to control the open bar and offered house wine, beer, and all the crushes. The bartender was amazing and there was never a long line for drinks. The venue itself is just beautiful, it really doesn't need a lot in the way of decorations. The mirrored wall on the dance floor made for some absolutely beautiful pictures. We added the bistro lighting and when the sun went down it looked just magical in the room. We had 55 guests and I felt the room was just perfect for that number.

Simply Amazing!

The Attic at Waterman’s was the absolute perfect venue for our wedding and I could not have asked for a better venue and staff. From the time I submitted my inquiry and spoke with Courtney about booking up until the very last minute of our wedding day (and even after) everything was completely fantastic. Working with Courtney was an absolute breeze. She is extremely quick to respond and so helpful with any questions. She had so many great ideas and recommendations to make the day as memorable as possible. All of the staff working the evening of the wedding were amazing. They made everything seamless and did everything with a smile. The food and drinks were also wonderful, as always, and we received so many compliments on how great it was. Overall, I can’t say enough wonderful things about the Attic and owe them all endless thank yous!!

Everything was absolutely perfect even though the weather didn't cooperate with our original plans, Waterman's did a great job of accommodating our needs.
