So happy with Historic 1625! We booked this venue about a year out and Lindsey, the wedding coordinator was so helpful and thorough with all of our needs. No matter how big or how small the request was, Lindsey was very accommodating. With the right decor, Historic was the perfect mix of rustic and elegant.

Awarded Best of Zola
My partner and I didn’t visit many venues, but after visiting WithinSodo, we kept envisioning our wedding taking place in it, and we are so happy we went with it. The most important thing for us at our wedding was to keep people dancing, and this was the perfect venue for that. The space was flexible and fun, and 120 guests felt full, but definitively not overcrowded. We had our ceremony & cocktail hour on the roof, food and a live band in the main room, and an on-site after-party back on the roof. This helped break-up the event and keep things fresh, without guests having to drive between locations; a guest said it was like “3 parties in one”, which would be hard to replicate at another venue. Going back on the “Monkey Loft” roof and enjoying the summer breeze and the city lights was a great way to end our wedding, and a time where we were able to have pure fun after a hectic day. Many of our friends commented that it was such a cool and fun venue!!! Kate was so nice and kind, and generous with her time. We were able to book venue access multiple times prior to the event, to walk-through with vendors, and Kate helped us there each time. She also made us so hyped for our event and is such a lovely person, we felt like we were in great hands. Some hopefully helpful notes: We were very happy to have hired a lighting vendor (Crimzon Haze), which helped the main floor feel lively. We went with a mobile pizza oven buffet (Veraci) instead of catering, and guests loved it, while also simplifying some of our catering needs. Setting up the bar and the desserts in the mirror room added fun and flair. The venue does not have an elevator to the rooftop, which doesn’t make it accessible to guests with limited mobility. We mostly took care of our own sound needs. If you don’t hire sound professionals, I would recommend doing a sound-check before the event to make sure everything is working as expected. Overall, we were super happy with our experience, and WithinSodo was a great venue with great staff for a flexible, “build-it-yourself” wedding. They have a TON of experienced vendor recommendations and plenty of tips and support along the way.

We believe that people see the problems our world faces and have the desire to help, but often don’t know where to start. So we started Cathedral with one goal in mind — to build something that’s the sole purpose of existing was to make this world of ours a more just and beautiful place. Building things that matter takes time. Cathedrals took generations to build — those who began the work didn’t see its completion. The architect who drew up the plans would never see their spires rise. The mason laying the bricks would never stand under their cover.

Capitol City Barn is an absolutely stunning venue, and we consistently received compliments on how beautiful everything was. This is truly a hidden gem, and we were very thankful to have found this venue for our wedding. That being said, I must note that receiving a response from the owner can take some time. I understand they are busy during wedding season, but it did make me panic a bit. The owner also didn’t have a list or pictures of the décor and furniture inventory, which made planning a little tricky. I’d have to send emails asking for dimensions for specific tables or furniture. Still, she did not seem to know the exact dimensions for some of the items, which I thought was a little odd for a venue owner. When we first arrived at the venue for the wedding day, the owner didn’t ask us if there was anything we needed or check to ensure everything was set up correctly, despite my having sent a floor plan. When I did need something or had a question, I had a hard time tracking her down. We did have a day of coordinator, but she did not arrive until noon, and we arrived around 9:50ish. After the day of coordinator arrived, I’m not sure how the communication went as the DOC didn’t really communicate with me much at first (but that’s another story). It also sounded like my DOC had dropped the ball on communicating about furniture pickup times and the ceremony seating arrangement, so I appreciate the owner doing her best to navigate that situation. Additionally, one of the wooden tables we used as a cake stand had some spider webs and pine needles on it, which my mom had to clean off. I was also under the impression that on the day of the wedding, there would be additional staff to help move furniture around, as when we first toured the venue, we were told that “they” could move some items around to make room for dancing or other small details. It even states on their website that “Our staff will set up the tables and chairs for you, while also providing an attendant for the entire event to maintain trash cans, restrooms, and answer questions that may arise on the big day.” However, on the day of the wedding, the only staff member present was the owner, and I felt bad for asking her to move some of the items by herself. Luckily, we had guests to help, and even some of the catering staff assisted with moving the chairs (as the chairs from the ceremony had to be moved to the tables afterwards for the reception). Again, this would have been a lot of work for the owner to do on her own, and I would have gladly hired staff had I known it was just going to be her trying to move over 100 chairs by herself. Later on in the day, another woman (maybe the co-owner) did show up. The only advice I have for anyone booking this venue is to take measurements and possibly take pictures of the furniture inventory to make planning easier, as this information is not provided on their website. Also, if you don’t want guests having to jump in and help move tables and chairs, I would suggest hiring extra staff. All that being said, this is still a beautiful venue and I would recommend it to anyone. They also let you book your own vendors, which is a plus! All the guests had a blast!

We cannot say enough wonderful things about City Farm! We were able to have the wedding reception of our dreams because of this place and the owners. From booking, to planning, to set up and Day Of, Casey and Scott were nothing short of a true blessing. They were organized, generous, kind, and a pure joy to work with! The venue itself is absolutely breathtaking and stunning. Our guests were blown away! We had countless praises that it was the most beautiful wedding they had ever attended. Also, the ease and practicality of the place kept everyone comfortable (plenty of bathrooms, space, and parking, easy to find, etc) these details are easy to overlook but so crucial for an enjoyable event. We cannot recommend City Farm enough and will sing their praises forever! One look at the venue and the beauty will speak for itself, but I can confidently say anyone’s experience booking here will be just as wonderful because of Scott and Casey :)
