I have had the pleasure of DJing at a couple of events so far at Walnut Hall. The space is beautiful, and well maintained. The owners and staff are helpful, kind, and downright just great people. I personally have not had a chance to tour the other buildings on their property, but my wife has and she was speechless (in a good way)! You will not be disappointed with Walnut Hall, unless they are already booked for your date. And I cannot wait to go back and help many more couples in the future celebrate their big day at Walnut Hall!!

My now husband and I had our micro wedding at One Twenty Six and it was more than I could have dreamed! The team was great to work with, they made my day feel so special! This venue was right within our budget and I would recommend it to anyone! For my wedding I’ve dreamed of something small and intimate where my husband and I can really enjoy each other. This was just the place for that!! Also, there were so many beautiful places to get pictures done! Even though it was small with the amount of photos we got back it makes it seem like a huge place! Loved loved loved that my big day was spent at one twenty six! So thankful for their team!
