Unforgettable Wedding Like No Other!
From the start, Kari decorated the entrance lobby with photos of us and our families, and it was just such a thoughtful and special touch. The outdoor aisle and rooftop deck is unreal, and if you’re getting married in fair weather it’s SO pretty with the lights. The reception area- WOW. The vintage lights and hanging greens were gorgeous. They set up everything so perfectly that I felt like I was on a movie set. The dance zone is also a great spot by the bar and they keep the rooftop open so you can take breather and fresh air after dancing. I’m telling you, this place has everything you’d want for your wedding day!
Finally-Kari has a great team, she and her staff and vendors not only give top of the line service and coordination, but they were so kind and took attention to every detail. So I’d definitely suggest going with her preferred vendors, they know what they’re doing and then some. Also-I had a veil emergency and Kari raced to the rescue by providing me with one the day of! There’s just nowhere or no one else that’ll go above and beyond the same way.
Stress-Free & Beautiful
Beautiful & Unique Venue
Melissa coordinated the best day of our lives!
They were always timely in responses and were so helpful with the whole planning process. We chose all of our vendors off their preferred vendor list and weren’t upset with any choices. When it came to the big day Melissa was our day of coordinator (which comes with booking the venue and is an amazing amenity!)
Melissa knocked it out of the park for us. She was easy to communicate with and made it so neither of us had to worry about a think the day of. The staff is so organized it truly made for the most perfect day and best day of our lives. We couldn’t be anymore grateful for the Haight and we are so happy we chose this absolutely breathtakingly beautiful venue to be the home to our wedding day.
Thank you guys again!
With all of our love and gratitude! The Awalts
