Vulcan Kiwanis has had its Juneteenth Brunch at the Alcove for the past two years! I've also…read moreattended a networking event here before. The space is a nice size. Very clean with multiple restrooms. It's also accessible for those with disabilities. It has a stage and already has a simple elevated look which limits the need for tons of decoration. It's black owned and located in the 4th Ave District. The owners are super nice, helpful and professional. The rental fees are very reasonable in comparison to other local event spaces! It comes highly recommended!

We had a Headshot Happy Hour event here that went very well. Most recently, my Kiwanis club had a Juneteenth event here to raise scholarship money for kids in the Birmingham City school system. Again, our event went very well. The venue is spacious, customizable (the lighting, dance floor, etc), and has great features. If you need a venue in Birmingham for an event, check them out!

It was a very nice venue. It was great seeing familiar faces. The selection was really nice…read more Everyone was very pleasant behind the table. I enjoyed some new things I've never had before. The table center pieces were pretty. Music was fun. The only HUGE negative was I am not someone that gets hot.....ever. I was sweating. I was uncomfortable. I wanted to eat and get the heck out of there. Someone failed and didn't lower the ac ahead of time for that large space.

I came here for the Birmingham restaurant week kickoff…read more There was lots of amazing food and desserts. The only negative thing I have to say is that it's July and it did not even feel like the air conditioning was on there. I was like sweating. I wasn't very comfortable. I don't think I'd wanna have a personal event there like a wedding, etc.. The bathrooms were pretty clean when I visited them, which was a plus. This is my first time being here and it's definitely a huge event space.

It's a busy time of year with holiday parties but they made it absolutely perfect. The tables were set and ready by noon so that florals could be placed well in advance. They have an over-achiever event director, Courtney Swaid Mince, that treats us vendors just as professionally as she treats her clients. According to my client, Courtney created additional decor without additional charge. And imagine our surprise as a vendor to see the votives we used with the table centerpieces were cleaned and packed along with the florals for us to pick -up immediately after the event. Who does that?! We look forward to working with B&A again.

Centrally located in downtown Birmingham and near a number of businesses and hotels, BridgeStreet…read moreGallery and Loft is as lovely as a venue as they come. This place is an ideal spot for medium to large'ish gatherings (50-150 peeps?) and a perfect setting for any special occasion. Whether it's an art installation, photo gallery, wedding reception, or just a big ol party, there are two floors of quality spaces to work with. There is no elevator unfortunately, but the bathrooms are handicap friendly and there is a separate back entrance for vendors. Parking is a bit limited to alleyways and street parking, but as the area finishes their renovations, I wouldn't be surprised if a parking garage would eventually make its way here. The fun in a raw space is seeing how much it changes for whatever the theme merits. There is a dedicated team here that works to make that vision come true and they're a professional and friendly bunch. I think their operation is stellar from top to bottom that perspective folks should really consider this gem of a venue.

This is an absolutely beautiful little venue! I have never heard of this place until I had a Yelp…read moreevent here last night, and I have to say I was extremely impressed! There are two floors, and our event was on the upstairs. I'm not sure how old the building is, but it has an exposed brick wall painted white, beautiful hardwood (oak looking) floors, with gorgeous strands of light setting the perfect evening event. Not sure if the lights are part of their everyday decor or if they were for Christmas, but it's absolutely stunning! I could see this being a great venue for a rehearsal dinner, work/birthday party, or a small wedding/prom venue (My graduating class of 7 would have had enough room!) My only question is how do I get invited back to this place?! I don't plan events, but this is a place I definitely want to come back to! Just a head's up I only saw street/metered parking, but that's pretty much expected in downtown Birmingham.

The space is beautiful, thoughtfully designed, and created such an elegant atmosphere for our event. The owners went above and beyond by meeting my vendors while I was at the graduation ceremony, which took so much stress off my shoulders. Their kindness and willingness to accommodate made the entire experience seamless. The restrooms were spotless and absolutely lovely a detail that definitely didn't go unnoticed. I also fell in love with their unique serpentine table setup. I had never seen that design before, and it added such a modern, upscale touch to the event. Even better, they had tablecloth colors that matched my color scheme perfectly! If you're looking for a beautiful venue with exceptional customer service, I highly recommend The Collective on 4th. I would give them five stars without hesitation!
