Best Venue Ever

The aesthetic of this venue was what sold us. It’s industrial and beautiful. Jeff, the owner was so helpful everytime we met with him. Cameron was also super responsive to any questions I had. Jenn was the one who worked our wedding and I cannot stress enough how wonderful she is. She was sweet, caring, and helpful all day. Zen is a gem. Being so close to falls park made this venue that much better.

Perfect venue!!

100% recommend Zen for any event! We booked this venue for our wedding 7/31 and everything was perfect! 10/10 for the location, the service, and the event spaces. We were able to have a ceremony, cocktail hour, and a reception all in one building! I emailed with Cameron a lot during our wedding process and she was always very responsive and accommodating to our needs! We were so appreciative to have Jennifer at our rehearsal and wedding. She literally went above and beyond for whatever we needed! Thank you so much Jennifer for dealing with all our craziness! Last but not least, Ronnie our bartender was amazing! We've heard so many compliments from our guests about how great Ronnie was! Thank you all for an amazing wedding!

Beautiful venue and wonderful staff!

Even though I did not end up booking with Zen, I would like to highly commend Cameron for how she treated us during our venue search. She gave us an excellent tour and was very willing to work with us afterwards. We genuinely felt her care for us as potential clients, something we didn’t experience everywhere we went.

We ultimately chose another venue that we felt was a slightly better fit for our vision and needs, but Zen was a top contender. It has a cool vibe, oodles of space, beautiful built-in paper lantern decorations hanging from a portion of the ceiling, a wonderful bridal party crash room/green room, built-in bar, a lovely outdoor deck and patio with bistro lighting, and the additional Lotus Lounge room that would serve as a great contingency plan (in case of rain) for an outdoor cocktail hour originally planned for the garden. We felt the venue was competitively priced. I also know for a fact that the space is a great place for a party—I attended my prom there several years earlier and had a great time.

If you’re looking at Zen, ask Cameron to show you pictures on her iPad during your tour! Zen has a Google Photos album that is full of pictures from past events to provide you ample inspiration for your special day.

Thank you, Cameron and Zen!

The Best Venue!

Zen was amazing! We had last minute changes due to COVID-19 and booked them 1 month before our wedding date. They had staff to move tables and chairs and the venue is so beautiful! They were super quick to respond and even provided cell phone numbers for key people. I'll absolutely use them again.

Wonderful Venue

Cameron and the rest of the staff at Zen made the day perfect. The venue is incredibly beautiful with wonderful decorating choices by the owner. It has a great layout for outside and inside weddings and accomodated everything they needed to for COVID-19. They are great at communication, answering any questions you have and understand what it takes to make a successful, well run wedding. Thank you so much!

Perfect Wedding Venue

The Zen is the perfect wedding venue, especially if you want to hold the ceremony and reception in one place, which all of the guests truly loved! The venue is very spacious, has a lovely bridal suite, and is already beautifully decorated. Cameron was an absolute pleasure to work with during the planning phase. She was very responsive, personable and accommodating. In addition, all of the Zen support staff on the day of the wedding were outstanding! Everyone truly helped make the planning process and the wedding day stress free.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
