I must say they do a great job with backdrops for the head table and first dance. My only note is that the group that was around 200, was still not at capacity and walking around in the room was a total nightmare. I could barely get around as the photographer, and the guests were dealing with the same. The round tables were cramped as well. I would highly suggest less than 150 people in this venue if you want to be able to move at all! Overall though, great experience. Never met anyone besides servers that worked there, no wedding planner or anything, which worked out but would have been good to have a contact person with the venue incase something was needed as the photographer.

It's very open and airy - with almost an industrial feel in the wooden beams and concrete floors. I attended/was a bridesmaid at a wedding here, and everything went off without a hitch. The dance floor is large, there's lot of space to walk around and mingle even if you're not dancing, and the bathrooms were nice and clean (which isn't the case at most big events). I could see this being a good option for a wedding, reunion, corporate event, or anything you might need a large event space/rental for.

For the wedding I attended the space was used very well. A Photo booth tucked in one corner, lots of space between the tables, and a good amount of room for dancing and stuff on the stage as well. The other side of the room had a buffet and a bar which was not cramped at all. Check out their Facebook page- this is likely an underrated event space that's not on everyone's radar due to location since it is off the beaten path but the lofted open ceilings and brick walls are so beautiful.

*The venue itself is beautiful. It is spacious and well designed. No complaints there…read more *Parking is semi inconvenient but it's okay. There's typically available parking around the area, but crossing the busy streets is a bit dangerous. *The main reason I could not give this venue a 5 star rating was due to our experience with a staff/coordinator named Summer. -This weekend, we had a tight schedule. Pictures, videography, cake, florists, the entire wedding party, and our immediate family had to wait outside of the locked venue long past the time the doors were supposed to be unlocked. It was very difficult to get in contact with Summer, she arrived late, and she arrived with an attitude. She opened the doors and immediately started yelling at the wedding party and other guests. We managed to get past these issues and get to the wedding ceremony on time. We had high hopes that things would simmer down by the time we got back to the venue for the reception. Wrong. -When we came back for the cocktail hour, we had a hiccup with our party bus and the entire wedding party ended up walking two blocks back to the venue carrying drinks, coolers, etc. -not her fault. We arrived to the venue on foot and were welcomed by Summer immediately yelling at each of the guests trying to walk in with their hands full, feet hurting, needing to use the restroom, and overheating. Instead of being a good host -gracious and helpful with the situation- it felt like we were in boot camp. I understand the outside drink policy, but when a party bus breaks down and we all are walking on foot with unopened or empty drinks, and nowhere else to go, you'd expect there to be a bit more grace in the situation and we were instead met with immense hostility. -As the evening progressed, Summer was still visibly on edge (ALL of the guests noticed). The bride & groom ended up pulling her aside and addressing this, in hopes that we could proceed with a peaceful end to the night. Unfortunately, she was not able to lighten up. -During dinner, she had the assignment of dismissing tables to get their food. She watched every guest like a hawk. I can respect being locked in, but this was different. For example: two guests accidentally went to the wrong line to grab food. She watched them from afar, waited until they started filling their plates, pointed & yelled at them in front of everyone, stormed up behind them, patted them both on the shoulders while they're dishing food, pointed across the room to the other line, and stormed off. -The bride & groom also had put in one specific, small, personal catering request (prior to the day of) and she totally blew it. When approached about this she immediately projected her frustrations at the drink situation from earlier (due to the party bus situation) instead of holding herself accountable. -As the evening wrapped up and guests were helping tear down & gather their things, she then kept turning the lights on and off repeatedly, as if that was going to help us speed up the process. I have enough respect for the venue itself and the other staff members to not give this place a 0 star rating, and we did not let any of this ruin our whole night, but I would strongly encourage that they reconsider or reinforce their customer service policies because this treatment was totally undeserved and unacceptable. I hope the bride and groom get a partial refund for the amount of stress and inconvenience from this one coordinator that we were all counting on who ended up being the #1 lowlight of the entire event.

It gives off the modern barn style that is super trendy right now. They had a room for the wedding party to get ready and it was pretty small but still served its purpose.

I attended an event here (Boomer Radio Sock Hop). The place is very nice. Parking lot would be…read moresuitable for most events, I think, but since there were A LOT of people at this event we weren't able to find a space in the lot. I really liked that there were two separate spaces on this floor, so there was a room where people were dancing to loud music, and another room that was quiet, spacious, and well-lit where people could eat and have conversations. I really appreciated that and it definitely added to my enjoyment of the event. The room where we ate was rather plain (still really nice). The other room was unique and beautiful, and has a patio. A downside is that there is a separate event space downstairs, and if something loud is going on down there you might hear it (and feel the floor vibrate). So that could be really problematic for some events. I also have a complaint about the bathroom. It is quite narrow and cramped. The ladies' room has 5 stalls, which honestly is not enough for a large event, especially since there are only a couple sinks and not a space for a larger mirror. Also - a HUGE peeve of mine - the doors of most of the stalls hang in a closed position, so to see if they are occupied you have to bend over to check if feet are there, in this very narrow space. It's not cool at all, and it's really annoying because the latches are designed in such a way that with a small amount of extra thought put in, they could indicate if the stall is occupied or empty. The building overall has been renovated so nicely and someone really dropped the ball on this aspect. It is a really lovely space, the event was enjoyable. I DEFINITELY appreciated not having to yell to have a conversation; this makes the venue a great place and accessible to groups that include guests who don't want to spend an entire event in a loud room.

Thankfully the weather cooperated for a Nebraska April wedding. The fountain in the front of the main door was a lovely addition. Parking was good, but somewhat limited. Indoor, it had vibes of a quaint Italian village. The decor was set up to look like a little Italian spot, a vineyard, something along those lines. The curved staircase from the top to lower floors made the entrances dramatic. There was a great space to set up food and an open bar. The bartenders were fabulous.

I had opportunity to visit at the recent Festa Italiana which the AIHS hosts every year as their major fundraiser. It was spacious, clean, modern, attractive and I really appreciated the large, clean women's restrooms. I did not see the kitchen but I've heard from a good source (one of the members of the AIHS) that's it's wonderful and since they used it to cook all that food for the Festa, they would know!

The building itself is clean and has a neat design and look both inside and out. I could see why this ranks highly as a venue. The lunch buffet is fairly popular and seems to have a regular crowd.

The service is OK, though me and my buddies had weird experiences with one of their bus boys (not really a boy, more like a 60 year man). It was off-putting to say the least. It gets a big, fat Meh from me, at least for the lunch buffet.
