Facilities and Capacity

Before you head down the aisle, you and your wedding party can get ready in the lavish suites at the Monroe, which feature flatscreen TVs, comfortable couches, and en-suite bathrooms. For an outdoor ceremony, you can exchange your vows on the brick-paved patio underneath the wooden pergola. You can also say 'I do' in the stunning Chapel Room with bright natural light and wood beam vaulted ceiling. The classic white walls in the Main Ballroom let you customize the space to be your own and pair well with nearly any theme. A billiards room gives guests a fun way to entertain themselves and mingle during your soirée. In the center of it all sits a gorgeous bar area where you can enjoy cocktails, wine, beer, and other beverages. Additionally, there is a full kitchen, so your preferred caterer can make delicious food. Ample on-site parking is available to accommodate your loved ones.

Services Offered

The expert events staff at the Monroe will work tirelessly to ensure your big day runs smoothly. On the day, you'll have complete venue access with five hours for setup and at least five hours for the event.

What I love most about being a Client Relationship Manager at The Monroe is that we take care of each and every client. I love that we get to be part of their special occasion and help make their vision come to life! We are here to help make memories and each one is special!

Gracie loves her dog Wendy and her cat Gladys. She takes pride in her eye for the smallest details, but knows that it's all about the big picture and making each event shine!
