Considering they were…read moreTongan events, the venue was big enough to fit our family, the A/C was cold enough to keep them cool, and the sound system was loud enough for us to celebrate! I would definitely recommend to everyone, and we will definitely rebook in the future! Also, the management is super professional and super helpful!! Loved everything!

This is a solid wedding venue! This was the second wedding reception within the year that I had…read moreattended here, and both times I was struck by its simple, elegant beauty, and the prime location! There are two main rooms- the first is typically used for the receiving line and gifts, and the second is for dining. It looked like there was a nice industrial kitchen in the back to prepare the food, and there is a big long Island/counter to serve food on from behind. The only downside is that at both weddings I attended, it didn't seem like there was a space set aside for dancing. This venue is a great place for any large event! Since it's in an enclosed space, however, you'll definitely be limited on guests.

Le Jardin hosted our daughter's wedding and ceremony this past weekend. It was a wonderful…read moreexperience for everyone involved. The setting is beautiful and timeless and it was so nice to have most of the stress of the wedding handled by the wonderful staff. The lighting was so soft and elegant. It has the perfect lay out for a ceremony, reception, pictures and dance floor; we took advantage of all of these. The staff was so accommodating and kind. While we, her parents were thrilled with the day, our daughter, her new husband and our family and friends all seemed to love it just as much. It was a great experience. I'd recommend Le Jardin for any small-ish occasion. We had about 125 guests and it was perfect.

Simple yet elegant, I'm not sure what pricing is. They had indoor and outdoor seating at the north side of the venue. I do like that they can have two events going at once since there is a north greenhouse with outdoor area and a south greenhouse. They had lots of fans going to keep it cool and water fountains going which made it very elegant. You can bring your own food which is a plus.

I think everyone deserves to call something so stunning their home. Now the reality is that only a few individuals can afford to live in something so grand. Alfred McCune was the wealthiest man in town. He was a railroad builder and a partner in Peruvian mines. It took three years to complete this house. While we weren't able to look inside the mansion we strolled around and awed at the exterior of the house. You can rent this home for a few hours for weddings and other occasions. You can call (801) 533-0858 ext. 104 and see if they do historic tours.

Butterfly conservatory is pretty. I enjoyed seeing the butterflies enjoying their space from…read moresnacks, to flying to enjoying different plants and spaces. There is a check at the end to make sure you don't have any butterflies on you. Which on landed on me about 9 times so I was thrilled they could help me make sure I didn't take any hitchhikers out with me. There is a lab where you can see in through a glass window butterflies being created and forming. Folks working there are super nice. It's definitely more kid and family friendly but I do enjoy going on my own and learned some things from the signs. Very pretty space too. The fossil space had a lot of information and I like their put together info about when the animal lived, where fossils were found and more information about the period the animal lived in.

This review is purely for the Loggia wedding venue, so take it with a grain of salt. I'm sure the…read morerest of Thanksgiving Point is, from what I could tell from walking through it, an incredible place. The Loggia, however, while itself is a fantastic wedding venue, it is staffed by unfathomably incompetent employees. Here are just a handful of the most egregious offenses we suffered (mind you, as guests) at the hands of these clueless [redacted]s: * Upon arriving at the garden gazebo (utterly devoid of people), a half hour before the ceremony, we were greeted by (one of) the wedding planner(s?). When we inquired where everyone was, she didn't know. We asked if the ceremony was being at this garden gazebo, to which she replied something to the effect of "maybe, or one of the other ones". First off, there are no other ones. There was the waterfall area, where the reception was to be held later, but wh didn't she know that? Why did she have no clue whatsoever what was going on? * The ceremony was supposed to begin at 4:00 PM; by 5:00, the planners had gotten their shit together, things started happening. * Two employees, loudly chatting and pushing a large dumpster, just on the other side of a wall of trees (partially visible, and entirely audible), just as the couple were reciting their vows. Complete lack of spatial awareness! * Ceremony ended around 5:30; time to transition to the reception area, by the waterfall. The food, which should have been prepared prior to, or during the ceremony, didn't arrive until after 7:00 PM, leaving everyone hungry and anxious for nearly two hours. * The food was arranged buffet-style, on a single table (should have been at least two), and guests were allowed to serve themselves (save for the prime rib, which was carved sparingly by a single person), while no less that four (and sometimes as many as SIX) venue staff stood behind the table, arms behind their back, doing absolutely nothing. I cannot for a single second fathom what their purpose was, other than to collect a paycheck, and allow the venue to jack up the price of the event. * Complete mismanagement of the quantity of food provided for the agreed upon number of guests; some of the last guests were underserved as a result. * The venue manager attempting to charge the bridal party an extra fee because the cake vendor arrived earlier than expected...because somehow sticking a cake in the fridge for a couple extra hours is a hassle worth stressing out the couple, and shaking them down for a few extra bucks. * The wedding planner bringing out the cake immediately after the ceremony, in 95° heat, which means it would have sat there for 3 hours, before it was time for it to be served. Fortunately, the mother of the bride noticed and told her to put it back in the fridge, so it wouldn't melt. * The venue charged $300 for lemonade service. You read that right: lemonade. * Oh, and of course, the married couple could not choose to use outside vendors or caterers for anything, leaving them at the mercy of these ridiculous hucksters. Five star venue, with one star service and value for your money. If you've got money to burn and nothing to lose, yeah, this place is probably great, if you can stomach watching them piss away your hard-earned cash with almost nothing to show for it. At least it's pretty here.

As a venue, I can only give the highest of marks to the Salt Lake Hardware Building. Drop. Dead…read more Sexy. This old building has been totally and sleekly remodeled with homage to the past that respects the amazing bones of the building. One of my favorite buildings in the city. Perhaps my favorite part of the building is the rough hewn timber columns and joists that serve as the raw skeleton. Plenty of exposed brick walls also abound, and I'm completely charmed by the old spiral slide that used to shuttle manufactured goods from the upper floors all the way down. It's been preserved and gives incredible character to the space for weddings, parties, fundraisers and more. This is all coming from the point of view of an attendee; to date I've never worked with the fine folks behind the building and have only attended events in the space. They host some pretty remarkable events, so I've got to think they're on top of things. When they're not hosting events (and even when they are), the building is home to all kinds of offices from the tech to the more mundane. There's lots of parking on the north side of the building, which empties out rapidly at the end of business hours. The south side of the building is now nearly kissing a new bridge for Trax, so it's best to just turn in from the north and you can find parking further north or east. I always look forward to events at the SL Hardware Building. It's classy but still casual, convenient, and a stellar spot in SLC. Kudos to those who made the expensive decision to spruce it back up and honor the past. Well done!
