THE VENUE
The combined indoor and outdoor spaces can host up to 400 guests for a cocktail-style event or 300 for a seated dinner. The smaller indoor room is a perfect space to display buffet-style catering and specialty cakes, while the bar, seating and live music take place on the larger outdoor terrace. Don’t worry about rain or cold — white tents are included for inclement weather!
