5 Stars for a fabulously DIY venue that makes me want to throw a warehouse party!…read more I've been to several different events held at this warehouse and each event has used the space in an interesting way that for their needs. From an intimate 7 person dinner party to a literary function with a stage and full house- this flex-space has functioned well and left people with lots of share-worthy moments. In terms of a venue there's the advantage of a small kitchen as well as storage space that is closed off from the main area. Additionally, there is a parking lot that services the warehouses and that is largely unused in the evening. I love the space and am always excited to attend events hosted there, if only just to see how they will arrange it and decorate it!

We usually bring our own board games and just enjoy hanging out with friends. We love the bar and the pizza. We've been coming here for a little over a year now and always have a great experience. The movie nights are also such a fun touch and make it a really relaxed, chill space. The only small suggestion would be possibly extending the menu in the future, but honestly, no complaints at all, we love this place.

I advise going before March while it's still nice during the day and into the evening. There are a few dining and beverage options - no outside food/drink permitted. While l am not an outdoors person, I appreciate the concept. I'd consider returning for their movie on the lawn offerings and as an additional place to gather with family and friends. I took off a star for unclear parking and large holes in the primary access lane/road. Additional signage would be ideal for parking. Arrive with enough time to park inside the designated areas. Do not part along the side street near the homes. They have the right to call a tow truck.

4 Stars for location, location, location!…read more Eola House is a historic 1924 house-turned-rental space owned by the city, right by Lake Eola. It may seem like an odd sight in the middle of the park, but in fact it used to exist in a line of historic homes that were taken down for the park expansion. Now it sits alone, right off of the walking path surrounding the Lake. The home is lovely and features a sunroom, living room, parlor, outdoor terrace, upstairs area with a balcony, bridal changing room, and more. Recently I went for a lunch meeting in their upstairs space, the Summerlin Room ($75/hr rental with a 2 hr min). It was a lovely spot and fit our group of fifteen perfectly. I'll admit that I had been to the house once before to help with another event and the room wasn't set to the specifications agreed upon so we had to move and reset the chairs and tables right before the meeting. I remember the event organizer was quite annoyed... Hopefully it was a fluke! Side note- There is no elevator and the stairs are quite narrow. This is worth mentioning in case your event includes someone with mobility issues or who uses a wheelchair. As I was heading out I stopped in a room by the front and appreciated the array of pamphlets set up- ranging from history of the house to an Orlando biking map. There were also tourist pamphlets with the typical attractions (presumably for out of town guests of weddings of meetings). Overall, this is a beautiful meeting/event space that is priced reasonably and located in the heart of the city.

You really can't get a more picturesque spot than this. On the day we visited the flowers were blooming and swans wandered the grounds. Today the house is owned by the City of Orlando and they rent it for reasonable rates for private events like parties and weddings. A full listing of the prices can be found on their website. In addition the house has a welcome center and park offices. On the day I visited the house was closed and I could only peak through the windows. This looks like a fabulous venue for weddings and outdoor parties on the lawn.

I've had the pleasure of attending a yoga event as well as a salsa event at The Balcony and both times I left wanting to figure out an event to host at this beautiful site. Though getting in to the building and up to the right floor is a bit of a process, the view that awaits is worth every head scratch. This is truly a Balcony, but much larger than you'd imagine. They've used the space for cocktail parties, seated dinners, weddings, fitness events, and I imagine a photo shoot or two. The space is available for rent, and I've made a point to take a tour (which you can schedule any time) to check it out when they didn't have an active event happening. The indoor space you'd walk thru for The Balcony is actually a marketing agency. I haven't been in several months, but it doesn't seem to provide a lot of weather backup space, so one thing to note. Then again, this place is so unique, you'll be convinced to cross your fingers and pray for clear skies!

I found all of those qualities here at the Woman's Club. The staff was also very friendly throughout the entire process. According to the club's website, "founded in 1915, the Woman's Club of Winter Park is one of the oldest not-for-profit community organizations in Winter Park, Florida." In addition to the meetings held here, the building is available for rent for events including weddings. The have spaces available for all parts of your wedding. You can have one part of the event or all at the club. They have ceremony space, reception space, and cocktail hour space if you are willing to host part of the event outdoors. We used the club just for our ceremony and it was so perfect. We had about 80 guests seated which took up about 2/3 of the room. I think they can do up to around 150 seated. There are beautiful mantels on either end of the main room which we used for our event. It was so beautiful and intimate. We loved the historic touches which had also been recently renovated before our event. At the end of our wedding, our guests were directed to the lawn. We then exited down the sidewalk aisle into our getaway car. A wonderful photo opp! Easy to work with, they have a very fair price. Ceremony alone here cost us less than $1,000! Try finding that anywhere else in the heart of Winter Park. Or anywhere. I am so happy to have found this location. Thank you to the club, and to our planner Kyle, for making our ceremony here so wonderful!

James Seymour Capen built the Capen Home in 1885. It is the third oldest home in Winter park. At…read morethe time there were only a few pioneers in Winter park, Fl. Capen was known for his dedication to the development of Winter Park and he donated funds to bring Rollins College to Winter Park. The Capen family lived in the home until 1898 when it was then sold to human-rights advocate Amelia Weed Hopkins. The Snow family purchased the home in 1904 and in 1910 it was sold to J.F. Johnson. In 1923, Howard and Anna Durbin Sands Showalter purchased the house transforming it from a Folk Victorian Farmhouse into a Tudor Revival home. In 1945 Dr. Wilbur and Edith Jennings purchased the house. They loved it so much that they stayed in it for the next 46 years. In 1995 it was sold to to J. Taylor and Susan Stanley but by 2013 the historic home was facing demolition by the current owners. The Albin Polasek Museum & Sculp­ture Gar­dens, Win­ter Park His­tory Museum, the Friends of Casa Feliz, and hun­dreds of com­mu­nity members in Winter park formed the group preservation Capen and were able to raise $450,000 in four months to save the house but it had to be moved from its original location across Lake Osceola. Roads in Winter Park were to narrow for the house so to bring it to the Albin Polasek Museum the 200 ton house was cut in half and floated across the lake by barge. The two pieces of the house were nicknamed Fred and Ginger. From there it was a two year restoration project to return the house to its splendor. The two halves of the house were attached, the 1885 pine wood floors were refinished, and disability access restrooms were added. Today the house resides in the museum's sculpture gardens with a gorgeous lakefront view. It contains museum offices, his­tory exhibits, art, and col­lec­tions from the Polasek Museum. The house can be rented for corporate events and weddings. Through the hard work and dedication of historic minded individuals a lovely piece of Winter Park history was saved to be enjoyed by a new generation of Winter Park residents.
