Beautiful venue, great staff, and have everything you need!

The Gingerbread Meeting House is an amazing venue and we can't recommend it enough! Caroline was incredible to work with. Throughout the entire process, she was very responsive, gave great suggestions, and was flexible with any changes we made. I was very overwhelmed at the thought of planning my wedding but Caroline made the process so easy. TGMH offers so much - catering, DJ, centerpieces, & other décor which is great for those who want a beautiful wedding but may be on a budget.

We were so impressed by the entire staff who were all friendly and helpful. We were able to customize our own menu and had a lot of comments from our guests who thought the food was delicious.

There is so much I can say about this venue and it's all positive. Highly recommend!
