Wedding/Reception

My husband and I got married here in 2023 and have zero regrets. Melanie was amazing to work with! She was flexible with tours and quick with responses. The space was absolutely perfect for both our wedding and reception. The stateroom was beautiful and the area downstairs was perfect for our reception. We LOVED that this was a one stop shop for all spaces. Aside from the wedding and reception space, there is also a bridal suite and groomsmen suite here as well. There is a beautiful story behind this venue too and Melanie and her husband have done an amazing job restoring this building and making the space absolutely stunning. I will recommend this event space every time!

Beautiful venue! Such an easy day!

My husband and I were married in January and having our getting ready spaces, ceremony, AND reception all in one building was THE BEST (especially in the cold). The day flies by and it was great to not spend any of it traveling. The bridal party got their hair done right across the street and stayed in a cute B&B two blocks away. We even walked to historic buildings and the river for outdoor photos. Seriously, we couldn't have had a better location! Everything was so easy. Tables and chairs set up for us. Timeless building character. Great bar set up. Easy parking. Nice kitchen space for vendors. Beautiful Stateroom with ample natural light for ceremony photos. We had such a wonderful day and that is largely due to picking this venue!
