My wedding was off the hook. The owner made sure that everything went smooth for us and kept checking on us a couple days before the wedding to make sure everything was going perfect. I was referred from one of my good friends who had their wedding at his other venue the CLYBOURN and my experience was just as great wonderful.

For us, Hotel Goodwin was truly a one-stop shop, as it's where we hosted our ceremony, reception (The Rooftop), and day-after brunch (Velvet Buffalo), and where we booked our room blocks. The staff was attentive and responsive throughout every element of planning and execution, and all we heard all weekend (and since!) from our guests is how much they loved the food and space, and how wonderful and accommodating the staff was at every turn. We have zero regrets about trusting the most important day of our lives to Hotel Goodwin, and would recommend it to anyone!

When my (now) husband and I got engaged, soon the reality set in that I was now to become a full time wedding planner. The checklists started getting made with the first one on the list being “find a venue”. We knew we wanted an elegant, upscale, timeless wedding. The first thing that came to mind was an outdoor country club wedding. After touring a few, we realized this was not what we wanted due to unpredictable weather, inconvenience for out of town guests, and rustic vibes we were not trying to go for. Family recommended The Concourse so I reached out to Kylie. During our first tour we knew this was where we wanted to get married. The elegant experience that The Concourse provides is unmatched. (My favorite part being the neutral carpet, no one wants bright red or blue carpet in your wedding pictures.) During one of the most stressful times, stressing about weather and rain is something you can easily take off your plate by being indoors. This venue is perfect to have everything in one place from the rehearsal, to the ceremony, to the reception. Kylie is not only helpful, but goes above and beyond to make your day perfect. She is there every step of the way in the months and days leading up to the big day to make sure your vision becomes a reality. Everything from the set up, to the timing, to helping day-of making sure everything goes according to plan was more than what was even expected. People ask how our wedding went and all we can say is “perfect”. We are so grateful to everyone on The Concourse team, especially to Kylie. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day.

The Sugar Maple is a one-of-a-kind venue that gave us the most memorable wedding experience imaginable. Adrienne created a cozy, intimate space in the backroom that was simply breathtaking. We said our vows there, surrounded by friends and family with beers in hand. The reception, held in the bar area, was lined with her incredible artwork—one of which now hangs proudly in our home. The beer experience at the Sugar Maple was unmatched. The care and creativity infused into every detail, from Adrienne’s striking poppy artwork to the unique beer pairings, made the venue truly magical. As the night went on, the beer kept flowing, laughter filled the air, and the dance floor came alive. Our guests raved about the unforgettable beer, the artful setting, and the warm, intimate vibe that the Sugar Maple delivered. If you’re looking for a wedding venue that combines artistry, craft beer, and heart, the Sugar Maple is beyond perfect.

We couldn't have picked a more beautiful, open and perfect venue than the Factory on Barclay. We got married 5/13 and people are still messaging me about how stunning the venue was. Sarah was amazing every step of the way from letting us tour multiple times with different family members, owning set up of our day and tear down. We didn't have to worry about a thing besides having our day. The rest of the staff day-of was absolutely awesome as well. Alcohol is provided. Bartenders were awesome and dealt with the party atmosphere of our wedding really well. We had a little scheduling issue where, surprisingly, we were ahead of schedule and Sarah got all vendors to move things ahead 30 mins. You get so much for your money as well. The space itself is massive and makes the day flow really easily. We did everything on-site, (getting ready, pics, ceremony and reception) and it was the perfect space. Getting ready suites are huge and a big plus. Recommended vendors usually sway people in the opposite direction because you have a smaller list of caterers to chose from, but it's evident that the staff at the Factory and Sarah have taken the time to curate a list of vendors that make a lot of sense for all different budgets and different experiences. We wouldn't do a thing differently regarding our venue search. Truly was the most beautiful day. Will add pictures once we get our formal pics from our photographer!
