Could not ask for more!

Cheryl (our event coordinator) did an excellent job of walking us through the process and asking us a number of questions we would not have thought about, but were glad she brought up. She was very organized and clearly this was not her first rodeo.

On the day of the wedding, she did a great job of getting everything set up to the point where we honestly didn't see her that often. Everything just felt like it was running on track (largely due to her helping us detail the itinerary) and provided a huge sense of relief knowing how everything was going to play out.

Would highly recommend as she was very flexible to work with and focused on us celebrating our big day.

Our Dream Wedding Venue!

I cannot say enough nice things about the Union Street Public House. We were drawn to the venue for its location--the history of the building was a nice added touch! The brick and nautical theme was very much so our vibe. Cheryl was by far the best part of the Union Street Public House. Her years of experience in the wedding industry and professionalism are unmatched. She continually had our back from the first time we met her throughout the entire reception. She specifically made sure that we took time when we arrived at the venue to be on our own, have some drinks, and grab a few bites to eat prior to making our entrance. The food far surpassed our expectations. Many of our guests commented that it was the best food they have had at a wedding. We also LOVED having our after party at the Whiskey Bar downstairs. It was such a great way to end our evening. One of our favorite parts of having this as our wedding venue is being able to go back to the restaurant/bar for years to come!

No praise high enough!

There aren't enough words for how wonderful our reception was at USPH! Cheryl and her team are the BEST at what they do, and also just really lovely, friendly, professional people to work with. From the first meeting with Cheryl until the very last second of our party, everything was flawless. Not to mention that our guests raved about the food and drinks (and you can't find better pricing anywhere in this area!)

I can't recommend USPH highly enough. My husband and I wish we could do the entire night all over again, and we wouldn't change a single thing because it was perfect.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
