About
Welcome to The Steam Plant, downtown Dayton’s “newest” event venue! The former power generating plant has undergone a careful three year renovation preserving the historical integrity of the building while adding modern amenities for today’s discerning couple.
The Grand Hall is the primary event space offering nearly 6000 square feet to create a memorable event! Some of the many architectural features of The Grand Hall include floor to ceiling arched windows, exposed brick and beams, uplit columns, polished concrete floors, operational ceiling fans, and the show piece of the room, a two-story custom built-in bar. Off the bar area is The Cigar Patio, a lovely outdoor courtyard perfect for a quaint ceremony, cocktails, a place for the guys to take a cigar break or breath of fresh air. Below the Grand Hall is the lower level former Boiler Room, another unique area useable for a dance club, after party, an intimate ceremony, event or reception space.
One of the highlights of The Steam Plant is The Bridal Suite, a spacious retreat designed with brides in mind. The suite offers plenty of room for brides and their squad to spread out and prepare for the big day! A salon style sink and mirrors for hair and make-up preparation, soft furniture and table seating, TV, bar area and plenty of natural light for photographers to capture the scene. .Off the suite is another one-of-a-kind feature unique to The Steam Plant, a 58-foot Catwalk overlooking The Grand Hall. Imagine a bouquet toss, toast or dramatic entry, the possibilities are endless! The Steam Plant also has a second getting ready space for grommsmen or bridal parties, The Locker Room. Located in the lower level, away from the bridal suite, a unique and quaint space for wedding day preparations.
The Steam Plant also offers a beautifully landscaped Outdoor Space which is a true urban oasis perfect for a ceremony, reception or moonlit soiree.

Daughter’s dream wedding.
Our daughter had her dream wedding at The Steam Plant. She searched venues in Dayton and Columbus and couldn’t be happier with the beautiful Steam Plant. The design and details in decor were first class. We were welcomed when we arrived in the morning by the owner and he was very helpful. The bridal sweet was a dream and even had working salon chairs. Iced champagne was waiting for us. The men’s locker room is amazing with beautiful wood lockers and a large screen TV. Two of our vendors shared that her wedding was the most beautiful wedding they ever worked. Our family has been in the Dayton area for five generations and the groom’s family traveled from Pittsburg. The venue is close to two nice Marriott hotels and great dining and night life for rehearsal dinner and welcome reception. Thank you to the Riazzi family and the Steam Plant for making our daughter’s day perfect and reminding us that “it’s great in Dayton”.

Rebekah B. Married on 09/24/2022A stunning venue!
This venue had my heart the moment I walked in for our tour. Lisa and her team at the Steam Plant are a bunch of sweethearts that have made it their mission to solve any hassle on your wedding day. We opted in for the suite and the locker room, which were a dream. There was so much space to have hair and makeup and food – with space to still relax. My bridal party still jokes that it’s crazy we had a wedding after getting ready because that part of the process was so much fun. The venue is gorgeous everywhere you look and I had so much fun peering over the balcony from the suite to watch everything come together. I had so many people tell me how gorgeous the venue was throughout the day and I couldn’t have been happier with this decision. It was an honor to get married at the Steam Plant, and I would recommend it a million times over!The Steam Plant's reply:
Rebekah, thank you for your wonderful feedback! We love that your bridal parties enjoyed the comfort of the dresssing suites and it added to your experience and memory for the day. We do want our couples to relax and enjoy their wedding day and leave the work to us and the other vendors! We are thilled it worked out end everyone enjoyed their experience. Thank you for choosing The Steam Plant and entrusting us with such an important day! -

Emily G. Married on 01/10/2021Perfect Place for a Christmas/Winter Wedding
The Steam Plant was everything we dreamed of for our wedding venue, and it was even better in the winter because they decorate for Christmas! Even more, fom the get, Lisa was so helpful and so welcoming. She offered constant support and provided sample photos, up to date health and safety info and more, sometimes without us even having to ask! If you’re looking for a venue for both your wedding and reception, this is the perfect spot. They are experts at a room flip! We were so sad to see our wedding day come to an end because this venue made it so beautiful!The Steam Plant's reply:
Emily, thank you so much, we appreciate your great feedback! We loved helping you realize your vision for your wedding and are thrilled you were happy with the results. Thank you for trusting us to be part of your big day!
