When we were planning a wedding from out of state, we knew we would need some help coordinating the…read moreday-of. From our first phone call, I immediately clicked with Amanda. She was enthusiastic, and had great tips on how to implement our ideas. She has totally customizable service, meaning you can choose the exact aspects you're looking for, within your budget. We hired Amanda for the day-of coordination - my fiance and I wanted to do the planning ourselves, but we needed help to make sure everything went smoothly on the actual day. We also added on catering guidance. Amanda worked in catering previously, and has a good handle of what to look for in catering contracts. She set up tastings with local caterers, and was able to accommodate our short trip in town. We met with Amanda at the venue a couple times, and she was always very responsive via email and phone. I know she handles a lot of events, but I never felt rushed. On the wedding day, everything went smoothly! I heard of tiny incidents after the fact that she took care of immediately. It was great to know that our wedding was in extremely capable hands, and my family and I could just enjoy the day. From the small things (making sure I had my shoes and phone in the getaway car) to the big things (making sure everything was on schedule!), she handled it all with ease and a smile. She has a great reputation in Durham, and I can attest that she lives up to the hype! I cannot recommend her enough!

Emily is THE absolute best! Her amazing organization, attention to detail and calming presence were…read moreso helpful throughout wedding planning and especially came in handy on our big day. Her organization resources, contact sheets and lists she went through with us in our final details meetings were unbelievably helpful as well. She completely removed the stress from the weeks leading up to our wedding and made our big day feel totally seamless. She also traveled from Durham all the way out to the Outer Banks for our wedding, having never seen our venue before our rehearsal and she still knocked it out of the park. I can never thank you enough for coordinating our day perfectly! xoxo

Could not have asked for a better venue and staff…read more I worked with Eric from day 1 when I booked the venue early in 2026. He was extremely patient and answered all my questions thoroughly, and was very punctual with everything he did for us. We held our son's 1st bday celebration here and the space itself is clean and classy and the included black chairs and furniture with black linen, and the sound system, mic, and projector (didn't use) that were included put this place over the top. I was also promptly given back my security deposit as promised. Would recommend to everyone and will def look here first for future parties!

Nice place for an event. I'm here for a work meeting and it's nicely decorated. Looks as though it…read morecould easily hold 100 people. The room can be set up to serve food. Neutral colors throughout to go with any color scheme. Restrooms are on both sides as well as a water fountain. Nice carpet and tiles. There is a fireplace which adds a nice touch. They also have a podium, projector and screen. Pretty versatile place from my first impression. I didn't set up the event so I can't speak on customer service or pricing. Also the parking lot seemed a little small but there may be more I am unaware of. It's across from Whole Foods/ Luna's Living Kitchen so the bus does run here.
