Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- Built in 1917 as part of a World War I munitions complex, this special spot has been thoughtfully renovated with an eye toward preserving its historic charm and providing top-notch amenities for modern celebrations.
- Soaring vaulted ceilings with exposed steel-beam rafters create loft-style vibes, while oversized arched windows ensure the space is filled with tons of natural light. Exposed brick walls and poured concrete flooring round out the industrial-chic aesthetic.
- Large roll-up doors open onto a fantastic outdoor area, a 30x30 tent with string lighting (with heaters in the winter and fans in the summer) makes it perfect for cocktail hour or overflow seating. Not to mention, there's space for food trucks!
