The Beaver Station Cultural & Event Center was an amazing venue! The aesthetics of the venue create the perfect canvas a wedding, which is why we chose it!
From start to finish, everything was perfect. Leann, who manages the venue, is very knowledgeable and provides wonderful insight to help things go as smoothly as possible. No question is too big or too small.
We had about 120 guests at the wedding and the venue size worked out well. The wedding was at the end of December, so everything was indoors. The guests were comfortable and really enjoyed the indoor area as well as the enclosed, heated patio space.
Overall, it was everything we could have asked for and more! I highly recommend this venue! You won't regret it!!

I got married at Beaver Station on 6/1/24 and I LOVED the entire experience. First of all, the entire Beaver Station team is phenomenal. Organized, kind, knowledgable, helpful are just some words to describe them. LeAnne, the venue manager was so attentive the entire time we were planning. Another plus is the wonderful balance between flexibility and recommendations that the venue offers. You only must use one of their preferred caterers, all other vendors are your choice but if you are stuck or overwhelmed with choices they do have recommendations/people they work with frequently. This was wonderful for me because I had guidance/suggestions if I wanted them but could also make the event my own. The prices of the venue is also amazing for how much they give you within your day, including Chiavari chairs (a lot of venues these cost extra), access to the property ALL day, and a built in day of coordinator. Our day of coordinator, Maura was AMAZING. Organized, professional, creative with issues that came up etc. Lastly, the venue is straight up beautiful and unique. Anyway, 10/10 would recommend this venue to anyone!!!!

Beautiful venue. We loved the trackside courtyard. It offered a little bit of a separation for guests who wanted to dance and roam with guests who wanted to just sit and chat in the dining room. I didn’t feel like I needed to have a lot of decorations either, because the walls and floor were already a beautiful gold design. Very fun for guests when the trains went by! We had about 125 guests, and that was about the max that would fit in the dining room. I’d recommend weddings here that are just a little smaller than that because it was pretty tight to move around in the dining room. The venue coordinator we had that day was Layla and she was awesome! Really went above and beyond to solve issues and make the day go smoothly. Also loved the spacious dressing room downstairs and plenty of parking outside. Price for this venue was a little bit cheaper than most too, which was very helpful.

Words can’t express how AMAZING our day was. We were looking for a venue that had outdoor and indoor space with a vintage feel to it. We happened up Beaver Station by chance and it was everything we could dream, from the first moment of meeting Leanne everything went smoothly. Leanne was always available to help with anything, answer any question, help others ideas, etc. The venue also had day of coordinator and she was a DREAM. We had created a time to be there and she was there and took care of everything, all the vendors, setting up decor, setting up the space. During our wedding she helped get guests to the right location, week us on time, get us food and drinks when we wanted them so we could enjoy our day. We could not be happier with the amazing service and space at Beaver Station!

From the moment we wanted to set up a tour at the Beaver Station for our potential wedding venue we knew it was going to be special. Making the initial phone call and speaking with Leanne, hanging up almost after an hour I had felt like I knew her my whole life. Leanne and her staff are the most sweetest and knowledgeable people I’ve ever met! When we drove through the adorable town pulled up and then walked into the Beaver Train Station to tour we were amazed. Fast forward to our wedding day on 10.7.2023 the start of the morning until the moment we walked out of the Train Station on our wedding night we were treated with patience, kindness, and respect. The staff is so supportive, knowledgeable, communicative, and again patient. I was a bride who had ai many questions & Leanne always had the answers or suggestions to help make the planning process go smoothly! Leading up to our wedding we felt the support we needed and the staff understood our vision. Leanne sat with me on the phone as I explained my vision & helped make our perfect vision come to life! The day of the wedding was flawless. Myself, my bridesmaids, and my family were treated so well and we had a beautiful morning getting ready. Our day of coordinator set up the entire venue and my vision translated absolutely perfectly. The day of coordinator Lindsey kept us on our timeline and gave us updates on how the day was panning out. The rest of the day couldn’t have been more perfect! Lindsey helped handle all of our vendors and coordinated every detail so that myself and my husband Sean did not have a thing to worry about. I couldn’t have been more happy with how our wedding day went! We never wanted it to end and the Beaver Train Station is definitely a hidden gem of a venue with the rustic, historic and elegant atmosphere all in one!

Leanne at Beaver Station was so easy to get a hold of when we had questions. The venue was affordable enough for our budget while also still offering a unique experience. We didn’t want a typical ballroom and stumbled upon the station. We were sold when we learned the history of the station being a passenger station in the 1800s. They have most of the same infrastructure in place with original floor tiles and beautiful windows. We also loved that the ceremony could be outside under the Belvedere which was part of a historical home’s original roof. The whole station has a beautiful charm. It is also extra beautiful in the fall due to the foliage and flowers. We didn’t need much decor at all for the ceremony! We had one hiccup because we didn’t know we needed more time to have a bartender approved so Leanne was quick to offer us another solution that was actually more affordable. The coordinator on site was great. She made sure all the decor went up and everything stayed on track the whole night. As a bride, she limited all stress on me the day of. I would book this venue again and again if I could!

My groom and I worked with Leanne and the team at Beaver Station for our 9/19 wedding. We were absolutely blown away by how beautiful our wedding turned out! The venue manager Leanne was very accessible, knowledgeable, and responsive throughout the entire wedding planning process. She was able to answer any question I had... and I had A LOT of questions! Leanne and the entire team were sincerely a joy to work with. I cannot rave enough! If you're looking for a budget-friendly and gorgeous venue with a team that cares, I cannot recommend Beaver Station enough!

Leanne is an angel. she made sure that all of our questions we're answered and responded immediately to any concerns we had during the planning. I just wish she had been there on our wedding day. the station is unique and classis, both inside and out. our day was very hot so we and our guests probably didn't get to enjoy as much of the beautiful grounds as I would have liked, it is so spacious , your guests can spend all day there!

My bridal shower was held at this Event Center.
The staff at the event center were impeccable. During the planning process and the day of, I could not have asked for more from the staff. They made the day stress free. The actual center is absolutely gorgeous--worth a look at the very least, but I would say you could not go wrong with choosing the event center for your next event!!

This was a fantastic place to have our wedding. The staff is quick to respond to questions. They were extremely helpful in setting up, and the running of our day. If you are looking for a beautiful venue for your wedding, this place is certainly worth checking out. It is historical, and just gorgeous from all of the outdoor areas for pictures, the gazebo for an outdoor ceremony, and the beautifully maintained building for the reception.

We had our rehearsal dinner at the Beaver Train Station for approximately 40 people. The food was catered by one of the caterers approved by the Train Station and was absolutely delicious and plentiful. Leanne at the Train Station was very helpful with our rehearsal dinner and was patient in answering my numerous questions. It's a beautiful building with a nice outdoor covered patio. The rental price was reasonable too!
