wonderful, attentive, charming

If you're looking for a luxury venue that showcases historical meaning, charming atmosphere, and the absolute best staff. You have found the one! I recently hosted a private party at Urban 501, and had no regrets or negative thoughts about it. Urban 501 was the perfect spot to gather with close friends and family. The historical charm of the building and inviting atmosphere made it that much better. The bartender on the day of the event was so charming and amazing behind the bar! I can not even begin to say how many compliments I got on the venue, and how beautiful and unique the space was. Then there was Kennedy… She was the real selling point, she was so attentive and helpful along the way. Her personality was so fun and cheerful, which made me feel comfortable and invited. She is an absolute charm, and knows what she's doing. If you have an event here, I'm sure it would be a success because you'd have Kennedy by your side. I can not recommend this venue enough!

Urban501 Review

My fiance and I recently toured Urban501 in our search for a wedding venue and we fell in love with the history, character, and charm of the building! Kennedy gave us a tour of the space and was so organized and knowledgeable. It was a very easy decision to choose Urban501 as our wedding venue!

Great so far!

We're having our wedding at Urban 501 on November 10th, 2023 and we’re so excited! Communication with the venue has been great and super responsive. I’ve emailed at 9 PM before and gotten a response within 30 minutes before. We’re loving the renovations they’re making so far and the vibe they’re creating. I have every confidence our wedding is going to be amazing at this venue
