Perfect venue for a perfect wedding party

What a wonderful discovery Zhou B Art Center was for me recently, when I helped my friend with her wedding. The venue is absolutely gorgeous with many different options for the cocktail reception and the actual dinner, including a beautiful "secret" garden for the ceremony and pictures. It has such a cool vibe while being very welcoming and just the right amount of hip... The onsite catering manager was Paulette and we could not have wished for a better person! Paulette took care of every little detail, had some great ideas on how to best coordinate the overall event and was so responsive throughout the entire process. On the actual day Paulette made sure that nothing was amiss and bride & groom as well as all the guests had a blast. Everybody LOVED the food and I was so impressed with the friendly servers who worked extra hard to make everything perfect! I wish I was getting married so I could have my wedding here! :-)

I wish I had better things to say.

It was a heartbreak and a disaster. We got engaged two year ago and immediately got a jump on planning. Zhou B was our first contract. We were charmed by the space, the free event furniture, but mostly the easy going event coordinator that assured us that everything would go smooth. It’s our first wedding so we both came in pretty naïve to wedding planning but Asher answered all our questions. A few months later they stopped answering emails. Our account had been switched to a new point of contact without our knowledge and no one was answering emails about staffing, bar packages, timelines, and floor plans. After we finally got a hold of our new person and walked the space with them we got new emails about how our last person quit and we have a new person, Marcy. Marcy did not let us use the venue for a rehearsal even though before we were assured that if there was no event that day that we could (when pressed she just said they were closed.) She didn’t let us use our caters or our bartenders, and we were forced to get a staffing company and use their bar packages. We used their preferred vendor for staffing (who were amazing) but didn’t do a few things that Marcy required - why are they a preferred vendor if I still need to ask or pay someone to put trash in their car at the end of the night? Then in an in person walk through, she asked “her boss” - who said we could use the on-site dumpsters for the night. We thanked her graciously and then the COMPLETELY NEW point person the day of our event said that Marcy now says we need take trash off site! On the day of your wedding there will be more than enough fires it should be not asking your dad or your brother to put trash in their cars. (We said we wouldn’t be doing that.)

Finally the most serious violation was not allowing our friend with A SERVICE DOG into our reception. *As per our contract* service dogs are welcome on the premise so I don’t know why our friend was denied entry or a friend had to come tell me and my wife about it. Why wouldn’t a venue coordinator come to us directly to explain that my disabled friend was going to be excluded from our day? After this embarrassing and painful ordeal they decided to go home.

If you’d like to see contracts, emails, or screenshots of the communication I’d be happy to show you. Somethings were our fault for not getting things in writing, but other things were blatantly against contact/not in the contract. Or in the case of our friends service dog - just illegal.

I hope your day is beautiful and stress free, and that’s why I felt like I should share my experience with Zhou B Art Center.

Be Weary- Would only recommend if you like added stress

Everything started really well with this venue when we first booked. We had a worker assigned to us and she was pretty responsive and answered all our questions. Then about 3 months before the wedding we stopped getting responses, and if we did get one it was delayed or from someone else. Then 3 weeks from the wedding we found out that our original worker assigned to us was no longer working for them and that we got a new person assigned to us. We also found out that things she told us that she took care of for us, she did not do. Such as reserving the space for our rehearsal and having someone there to let us in prior to the wedding so that the wedding party could get ready. When we told the new guy what the other worker promised us, he eventually agreed to the prior arrangements, but it was a battle to get that all settled. Then came the rehearsal. The new guy was supposed to be there to let us in, but he left prior and told someone else to let us in. They did not let us in at all. We had to let ourselves in through another door. At this point, we were panicking and decided to come up with plan b incase they failed us on the big day. Luckily everything went smoothly on the big day. The added stress with all of this was not worth it at all. If we had to do it all again we would have booked with a different venue.
