Now this is a smaller program that I put on so I'll compare it to just the same program and even with that smoothest experience! First off the space was perfect for our dinner program of 60 guests. This is a networking/educational event so we also have an exhibit hall with pharma partners the bar side of the space was perfect for our limited 6 exhibitors. It was a gorgeous evening so we had a few tables outside and had the big door open to the dinner space to have an inviting entrance during the cocktail/welcome hour with the registration table right inside that door (which we then converted into the dessert and coffee table). I had a wonderful time working with Janelle when we did a walkthrough she helped in selecting the linen to match our marketing materials for the event and we worked through nice weather layout plan versus hot weather! Her bar team did a wonderful job with our special drink request (again to match the theme for Menopause the topic of the talk). Janelle was also so helpful with set up I've never had assistance like that and I really appreciated it! She was also very hands on throughout the event like a full second the whole time even managing communication with the catering team so I could continue doing what I needed to for the event. The presentation set up was perfect with a super large screen the linen draped on the side was gorgeous.

Though parking is limited, the use of both area hotel shuttles and the story hill's trolley made guest transportation easy.

There is a full service bar and kitchen which offers a variety of pizzas, nachos, and other odds and ends. There's also pull tabs and an ATM. The space is available for both kids and adult parties, as well as corporate events and fundraisers. Adult parties, depending on size, run from $250-$760. Kids parties from $195-$500. Food and drinks were basic but good. The space is rather rudimentary, and on really cold winter days gets a bit chilly. Still, the open spaces are well organized and set up.

The venue is a beautiful open space, with high ceiling and a bar area.

There are 2 waiting/powder rooms, beautiful and decked out with mirrors and chairs. The high ceilings create beautiful acoustics with the band playing. Just charming. Lighting is warm and bright, inviting but not glaring. You could dress the place up or down to your liking, and there are lots that your imagination would love to play with here.
