Abigail Kirsch at The Loading Dock

st felt like it was more us. We were able to take our photos all over the industrial park, which felt unique to us as a couple. We worked with Andrea in sales and she was so helpful in answering all of our questions and allowing us to bring our families for a visit after we had secured the venue. The Maitre D, Molly, is so lovely - she truly made our experience at The Loading Dock so wonderful and our day ran perfectly. We held our ceremony in the brick space offered and it felt so intimate and moody. The food was unbelievable - our guests could not stop talking about Abigail Kirsch's beautifully plated meals and how delicious every bite was. Not to mention, the staff was extremely attentive, and everything truly felt so white glove. We are already planning our anniversary dinner at one of Abigail Kirsch's restaurants in the city next year!

From the beginning, Andrea was attentive, answering all of our questions and providing a fantastic tour of the space in Stamford. Then, working with our Event Coordinator, Molly, was fantastic. Molly has such amazing knowledge of weddings, parties, and the space itself. She was incredibly efficient and is truly a professional. She made my family and I feel so confident in our celebration where we didn't have to worry about ONE thing. The day of Bridal Assistant, Katelyn, was phenomenal as well. She immediately greeted me when I arrived and brought my husband and I food, helped to bustle my dress, and provided me with everything I needed throughout the night. I just cannot say enough about this company and venue. Thank you, Loading Dock, for making my wedding dreams come true!!! All of our guests are STILL talking about our wedding, the food, the venue.

e shared, and the final outcome was beyond our dreams. Molly, our Event Manager was the sweetest, and so professional in all her guidance and attention to every single detail. Nothing was left to question. She greeted us at the door at the reception and kept the night flowing to perfection. THE FOOD!!!!! OMG! Every single guest keeps telling me how amazing each bite was. The cocktail hour was beyond exceptional and the main meal and dessert were amazing. Each bite hot and the finest produce, meats, etc...was used. The servers went above and beyond in their attention to detail and service. The bartenders...amazing. Made specialty drinks for us all, and were so fun! Kaitlyn, my daughters Bridal Attendant, never left her side and made sure every need was met. I walked in and she immediately, on her own busseled the wedding gown and just made everything run smoothly. Our DJ and florist gave a rave review as well. Told us Molly and the crew were amazing to work with. I cannot recommend The Loading Dock enough. A lifelong dream came true that day. I humbly thank Molly and everyone for such a perfect evening. We will always fondly remember such a night of beautiful memories! Thank you!

e our day was perfect. We specifically worked with Molly who was so sweet, accommodated all of my needs, and answered every question in a timely manner. The day went so smooth and I really credit a lot of it to her. They also treated my husband and I like royalty, always making sure we had food and drinks and were where we needed to be. The food is also AMAZING! Our guests were surprised at how much food there was and still are talking about how good it was months later. We cannot recommend this place enough. They really leave no stone left unturned and our day was flawless. Absolutely have your wedding here!!

ltiple guests that it was the best wedding food they've ever had. The staff were very attentive and helpful during the reception. In particular, the event coordinator and bridal attendant were the best, they foresaw all of our needs, made sure we had drinks and were able to eat some of the food. We cannot recommend The Loading Dock enough and hope we can attend a wedding there one day to get the experience as a guest!

hands with the team at Abigail Kirsch. The venue space took my breath away, the service was top notch, and THE FOOD was BEYOND FABULOUS. I had so many people come up to me and tell me it was the best wedding food they had ever had (one person even told me their steak meal was better than steakhouse quality). If you are looking for a venue that is different from your typical wedding hall, this is the place for you!! Thank you Andrea and the entire AK team for making our wedding the best day ever!

are some of the most professional and talented people I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Ed and Candice assisted us with the entire planning process and made it an absolute pleasure. I had no worries going into our day knowing that it was in Ed’s hands. The entire day was flawless! People were blown away (especially by the food!). Our wedding day was more then we ever could have dreamed of, thank you for making us feel so special! Matthew & Stephanie

at the venue was incredibly accommodating, not only to us and our families, but to our vendors, many of whom they recommended. The space allows for almost anything in terms of décor and we ended up having a “secret garden” theme with string lights and greenery. Our wedding was completely unique and unlike any other wedding we had attended in the past. The food options were awesome and not only looked beautiful but tasted amazing. We were told by so many of our guests how the food was the best they had ever had at a wedding. Finally, the team was so attentive, whether it was allowing us to drop decorations off early, to making sure we always had a drink or a special platter of the food - they exceeded our expectations!

ether make up an amazing wedding venue. We continue to receive so many compliments from our guests about the venue, food and staff. The after party in the arcade game room was also such a fun way to end the night. Couldn't have imagined a better venue!

e from waiters to bartenders to our coordinator were incredibly professional and courteous. And I'm STILL getting texts about how incredible the food was. I've been told by many of our guests that they had the best steak of their lives that night! I'd HIGHLY recommend this venue.

r expectations. From the second we were welcomed into the Loading Dock we knew it was perfect for us and would allow us to throw a party unlike any other we had been to. Frank and Stephanie take the cake when it comes to outstanding people to work with. We can't thank you enough for making our day anything beyond what we dreamed of and for ensuring our guests all reached out to us to let us know that it was the best wedding they had ever been too! Thank you!! Amanda and Alex

hat it was a unique and special place. We wanted something different and did not want your typical wedding venue. Choosing The Loading Dock was the best decision ever! We still get compliments about how amazing our wedding was, especially the food!!

ed. When we met the people behind the venue, we were sold! They were very professional and courteous but extraordinarily friendly at the same time. We were looking for a venue that would provide "food all night" as opposed to a proper sit-down dinner and the Loading Dock's "Phases" menu did just that. The planning process was a breeze with the Loading Dock Team, including Jayme, Nancy, and Lorraine and all of the day-of details were taken care of before we could even ask about them! They were very thoughtful and thorough. We took our wedding pictures outside of the venue and there were even dedicated waiters and waitresses to bring us appetizers and cocktails so that we wouldn't miss the food at cocktail hour. In addition, there was at least one waiter/waitress per guest table and the bartenders were tremendous as well, never letting anyone go without a full glass. The service was absolutely impeccable and I would compare it to a four-star dining experience. With that in mind, the food was truly next-level. Not only was it inventive, inspired and out of the ordinary, but there really was something for everyone. From the Margarita served frozen in a Blood Orange peel to the Short-Rib Pie in a Jar, the presentation was gorgeous and the food tasted even better than it looked. Several guests remarked that their steak was some of the best they'd ever had and more than a few asked if the Loading Dock was open for dinner regularly. All in all, we'd absolutely recommend the Loading Dock for a wedding (and even other events). The staff was wonderful to work with and it showed how much they care about their customers and how proud they are of their work. The food was great, the decor was on point, and I honestly can't say enough about the venue. As a parting note, numerous guests told us that our wedding was the best wedding they'd ever been to, with the combination of the modern venue, excellent food and top notch service. Two of said guests had given weddings in the past 6 months for their own children, so take that for what you will! Thank you to the Loading Dock Team!!
