We had the absolute BEST time at this venue. Our wedding was so beautiful, we had our ceremony in the garden and it was perfect. They did anything we asked, and they were so easy to work with. I would 100% recommend them to anyone looking for a venue!
Very professional. Lots of fun! Beautiful space.
We got married at The Venue at the Bakery Building last weekend. The location itself is absolutely beautiful. Being a 100-year-old building means having a certain kind of charm and character that most new modern venues can't compete with. The inside of the venue is large with some vintage features and the outside courtyard area sits perfectly hidden, perfect for a private outside ceremony. Communication with the venue staff was simple with quick response times. Emma, specifically, was extremely helpful, kind and expressed genuine excitement for my happiness. Our whole experience was very positive. I highly recommend.
Beautiful Venue inside and out. Just wish there was shade over the outdoor ceremony area for lighting and temperature purposes.
No bakery here. Just the name - but a very nice building.
The most Beautiful Experience and Service we could have asked for. Exceptional Staff and an Absolute Gorgeous Venue! Definitely Wedding Material 🥰
This venue couldn’t have been more perfect. They were so helpful and patient with everything and anything you could ask for. The girls who helped us set up, down to the coordinators. My wedding was yesterday, and although many people decided to cancel, they enjoyed my micro wedding with us. I 100 percent recommend this place. the outside is so beautiful and intimate, and the inside is just so charming. seriously.
Very nice for the wedding and reception
This Venue was beautiful already, and after we decorated for the prom it was absolutely beautiful. It is spacious so there was plenty of opportunity for decorating and lots of room for dancing, the 360 photo booth, and the food. The Representative from the Bakery was very thorough and helpful and always responded quickly to my questions. There were 3 representatives available on site the day of our event and that was really helpful.
