Communication is key for me and with Tracy and Cheryl, the communication was clear and professional the entire time and they were flexible with my requests. My guests were impressed with Tracy and Cheryl's attention to detail. I highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for a stress-free, elegant, and well-managed event space!" Thank you Team 137

    Don't book this venue unless you're comfortable with broken promises and poor communication on your…read morewedding day. We originally booked 137 Events for 12 hours but later agreed to reduce the time to 8. In a verbal agreement with the venue team, we planned to arrive at 3:00 PM rather than 11:00 AM. While we were told refunds weren't offered, the remaining value was to be reallocated toward setup assistance--instead of a refund, we paid $1,000 for that service. My wife spent over 45 minutes explaining our setup needs. Despite that, when we arrived, the only thing visibly completed was the tables and chairs (which may have been arranged by guests). Traci attempted to set up floral arrangements but significantly deviated from the instructions provided. Most other elements were incomplete or missing. Had we known this would be the case, we would have stuck with our original plan and brought a setup team. Instead, we trusted the venue staff--and were left scrambling before the reception. We also followed the bar policy as it was explained to us verbally by Cheryl, which we understood to be the most current guidance. On the day of the wedding, however, our bartender was caught off guard when Traci contradicted those instructions, creating confusion and tension. Traci was also expected to assist our DJs with lighting cues, but she was unavailable when needed. I had to search the property to find her just before our first dance--something that nearly didn't happen as planned. When my wife, visibly upset, expressed concern about the unfinished setup, Traci laughed and walked away. My wife--still in her wedding dress--ended up placing candles and arranging guest tables herself instead of preparing for the reception. On top of that, we did not know how to turn the power on to the bridal suite when my wife arrived, and Traci was not present to turn it on, preventing her from using the space to get ready. After the event, I contacted Cheryl to express our concerns. Rather than accountability, I received conflicting accounts and excuses--some of which contradicted things I personally witnessed or handled myself. This was one of the most important days of our lives. It's deeply upsetting that the venue's lack of professionalism added so much avoidable stress. I cannot recommend this venue to other couples. Our experience was frustrating, disappointing, and far below the standard we were promised.
