137 Events was the perfect space for a wedding. The venue is beautifully restored and looks great even with nothing in it. It’s nestled in quaint downtown Exeter and has all the charm you would expect. The patio is a must if weather allows! The owners were so professional and genuine and willing to do as much or as little as needed. I couldn’t recommend this venue more!

My husband and I recently attended a church wedding and directly after the reception which was a few feet away. The reception building was spacious. The venue was an open building which allowed for many creative possibilities in which to utilize the space. The building accommodated a large buffet, drink station, dance floor, an area to give speeches and an area to display pictures of the bride and groom as well as a welcome sign. The lighting was great and the bathroom was well stocked and clean. I highly recommend 137 Events for your upcoming event! The venue is a large canvas waiting to be creatively utilized.

I attended a wedding reception for a dear friend and was impressed with the organization and professionalism of the event staff. The staff decorated the event center and knew the best way to accommodate tables and guests, the DJ, and the display and catering tables to the bride's and groom's liking. The event center and facilities were clean and up to date. The guests that I had conversations with were also impressed by the set up and everyone seemed to have a great time. I would highly recommend this venue for all types of parties and celebrations.

I attended a wedding earlier this year at 137 Events in Exeter, and it was an outstanding experience! The venue is beautiful, combining a rustic elegance with a modern touch, and the staff were warm, attentive, and professional throughout the entire event. The reception was flawlessly organized, with a great layout for socializing and dancing. The bride and groom wanted a simple reception, and with that in mind, 137 Events brought out the farmhouse textures of the space and it felt sophisticated with the simple touches from the decor. Overall, 137 Events made the day run smoothly, ensuring a memorable and enjoyable celebration. As a guest, I highly recommend 137 Events and how they made the day perfection for the bride and groom. As the soon-to-be married couple, I can only imagine how 137 Events will enhance and embrace the joy that your special day will hold! Highly recommended!

The BEST venue in Tulare County!
Getting married here was such a peaceful process and for that I have to give Tracy and Cheryl the biggest THANK YOU! ♥️ they have out done themselves with the 137 events venue space and all they provide for their services. I recommend anyone I know to check them out as I know they will not be disappointed. Other than the venue, I received very prompt responses to any questions I had inquired about. Which helped immensely when I had a million other details that I needed to attend too for my time frame. Even when I had to move my service from outside to inside, they helped me so much with the transition at such a short notice. Me and my husband felt very taken care of. I have nothing but beautiful memories from my day. ❤️
Lastly, the event space is modernized to where you can just go in and make it your own. That’s a great thing that 137 events offers. I love that it’s not outdated or a too busy looking venue. The bridal suite is perfection!! Just wonderful!!
I’m forever grateful for such a memorable day!
Thank you again Tracy and Cheryl at 137 Events. ❤️

This venue is truly amazing. I attended a wedding there and was impressed on all of the special touches that they offer. The exposed brick walls, charming feel, inside and outside areas, and especially the staff. I was lucky to get a quick glance at the bridal shower and all I can say is WOW. The quaint little town is so special too. Thank you for making not only the wedding so exceptional for the bride and groom, but also for the guests!

My words will not do it justice for how extremely great this venue is. Don’t let the number of reviews make you pass this venue up. It’s new and we were the 3rd wedding in March 2022. We couldn’t have asked for a better venue. All of our guests had a wonderful time and couldn’t praise the venue and the owners of venue enough. This venue offers so much more than just a place to have your special event. Indoor, outdoor or both, chairs, tables, dance floor, decor, I could go on but I’d rather tell any bride to be that this is the venue you need to book now. Thank you so much to the owners Tracy & Cherly for making us feel so welcome & accommodating our EVERY need for our special day!

Gotta say, the "Best" venue EVER!! Tracy and Cheryl are Fantastic! Very friendly and helpful. They know their stuff. Our daughter and now Son-in -Law were soooo happy with the venue and the owners, Tracy and Cheryl. It was a bit of a drive for us and the guests to Exeter from Clovis, but WELL WORTH IT!! We recommend this venue anytime. Book your event early with Tracy and Cheryl or you will miss your opportunity for GREAT and Long Lasting memories!!!!
