We had our dream wedding at the Haight!

We had our dream wedding at the Haight thanks to Kris and her team! As you can see from the photos, the venue is gorgeous. It is also located so close to the riverwalk, so we were able to get amazing newlywed photos by the river. Kris and her team worked seamlessly with our vendors. If there were hiccups, they were managed without issue so that my partner and I could spend all of our energy focused on celebrating with friends and family. Everything went so smoothly on the day of thanks to the whole team at the Haight! I would highly recommend booking any event at the Haight!

Unforgettable Wedding Like No Other!

I don’t know where to begin, but the main thing is: The Haight made my wedding magical and truly like a real fairytale! There truly is nowhere else that will give the same experience or the same level of service from Kari Haight or her assembled team of fairy god mothers. I’m tearing up thinking about it.

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.

The Haight is perfect and worth it!

The Haight was such a perfect venue for our perfect day! The flow of all of the events, the space, the decorations, everything was just amazing. Would not have changed a single thing. They were great to work with from the start and the day off was just so nice. They had someone around for questions or assistance at any point which was great. The bride and bridesmaids got ready in the bridal suite and it worked out just perfectly, absolutely worth it! We also rented all of the décor, from table numbers to centerpieces and it was such a relief, we didn't have to think about packing everything to drop off and bring home at the end of the night, also saved us money and space after the fact. Just loved that they offer that service, it was such a great idea and a stress saver for us. Melissa was our Day of coordinator and she was so great with everything, she timed our people down the aisle during the ceremony, kept us informed with all of the changes and set up, it was so nice to just not have to use my brain power on things like table numbers and set up. Just those simple touches were beyond helpful. Also entire vibe of the venue was so great, we had the lovely outdoor area with games and cigars and it was so nice to have separate areas for whatever guests wanted to do be it dance on the dance floor, relax/cool down outside with cigars and games, or sit in the dining area and be able to hear each other talk.

10/10 would highly recommend!

I recently celebrated my June 2024 wedding at The Haight, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. From start to finish, our experience with The Haight was nothing short of extraordinary!

The venue itself is breathtaking. The building is beautifully maintained, and the multiple indoor spaces are elegantly designed, offering a perfect blend of charm and sophistication. The moment we toured the venue, we knew it was the perfect place to celebrate our special day.

The team at The Haight was incredibly accommodating and attentive throughout the entire planning process. They listened to our vision and provided invaluable guidance and support, ensuring that every detail was taken care of. Their professionalism and dedication were evident in every interaction, making the planning process smooth and stress-free.

On the day of the wedding, everything went off without a hitch! The venue was perfectly set up, just as we had envisioned. The staff was friendly, efficient, and went above and beyond to ensure that our day was perfect. They handled all the logistics seamlessly, allowing us to fully enjoy our celebration without any worries.

Our guests were equally impressed with the venue and the exceptional service provided by The Haight. We received numerous compliments on the beauty of the location and the smooth flow of the event.

In summary, The Haight made our wedding day truly unforgettable. Their stunning venue, combined with their outstanding service and attention to detail, created the perfect setting for our celebration. I highly recommend The Haight to any couple looking for a wedding venue that offers both beauty and impeccable service.

Stress-Free & Beautiful

If you want an stress-free wedding look no further! From day one, Lauren, Nicole and The Haight staff were amazing. The venue is rustic, chic, clean, and beautiful! We have received so many compliments on the venue from our guests. We had an amazing wedding thanks to the staff at The Haight. On our wedding day, there was never a moment where our coordinator, Lauren, wasn’t moving around, helping out, or asking what I needed. If anything went wrong, I had no idea about because Lauren had already taken care of it. I am so happy we chose The Haight as our venue.

Beautiful & Unique Venue

Love the look of this venue, its unique and industrial. We had our wedding here in May of 2023 and it was stunning. Our guests loved the unique look and it was able to accommodate our large families with ease. The outdoor space was beautiful and made for great photographs! The bridal sweet is also HUGE and is the perfect space for getting ready the morning of the wedding!

Melissa coordinated the best day of our lives!

When my husband and I were going through the planning process of finding a venue I had my heart set on a different location and the Haight was our last venue tour. Boy am I glad we made the trip that day because we both left falling in love with the venue and the staff!

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

Beatiful venue and amazing staff!

Our wedding would not have been as amazing or as beautiful as it was if we didn't have it at The Haight. The venue is absolutely stunning, and the event team has the process down to absolute science. They were extremely helpful during planning, and Shannon and her team made sure everything went smoothly during the rehearsal and the event. We got so many compliments on the venue and how well our wedding was managed. We highly recommend The Haight!

Color by number- expert level

I write the review from the point of view of MOHx4. Having stood up in many weddings I can tell you that THIS PLACE HAS IT TOGETHER. I am in no way a wedding professional but I have had to deal with many wedding details gone wrong, NONE DID HERE. The Haight staff is AMAZING, they facility itself is reason to have your event here but the bonus is the amazing staff that litteraly tends to and has an answer for everything you can imagine. The planner responded to so many emails leading up to the event, offered a VERY EASY color by number planning system that makes sure the day goes smoothly. The level of detail is unprecident and INCLUDED in your rental. If you are looking for a venue, stop. book here, you will not regret it. 1st wedding I stood up in that didn't have a hicup and didnt burden the bridal party or family with set up/ clean up. AMAZING people!!
