unforgettable venue

If you have visited the Foundry, you know how amazing and beautiful it is, but what you don’t know before you work with them is how responsive and helpful they are once you have committed to them. We had about 130 guests and used the main room for the ceremony, the greenhouse room and space outside for the cocktail hour, the courtyard for the reception dinner, the main room again for the dancing, and the greenhouse room again for the after party (11 to midnight). We also rented the Du Val suite for getting ready, and it was a superb space for the groom’s party and extended family to get ready and hang out and also has the most beautiful garden with city views. Our wedding was absolutely amazing and vindicated our immediate love for the Foundry that we developed the first time we toured it, and the Foundry staff are extremely helpful and kind.

Dreamiest of venues

Picture perfect venue! The Foundry was the venue of my dreams and we loved every bit of it. If you are looking for something beautiful and different than a standard catering hall, this is it. The staff was awesome and very supportive throughout the planning process. Being able to move from space to space with a different look and feel, and also use the lovely courtyard, adds a very special experience.

Fairytale wedding

The Foundry was an absolute dream venue for us. When we were researching venues, we almost didn’t go visit because we knew that we would likely be in love with it in-person even more than just from the photos and we were worried we wouldn’t be able to make the budget work. After seeing it, even on a cloudy and cold February day, we knew we didn’t want to get married anywhere else. While it was pricier than other places we looked at, it was worth it. The venue feels like a pocket of fairtyale surrounded with views of the city. Angela and Lindsey were great to work with even through a postponement and helped us reconfigure our day when the weather took a turn for the cold. We have absolutely no regrets. Thank you so much to the team!

I always love working at The Foundry. It used to be just down the street from where I lived, and now that I moved further away, it's definitely one of the things I miss. Beautiful location - great staff!
