I cannot say enough about the amazing experience we had working with the people at Building 177 and the Moniker Group. While planning our daughter's wedding, from the very start, each person we dealt with was professional, kind and supportive. ...
They were upfront and honest about cost and guided us through the process of choosing vendors. The coordination package was outstanding. Our coordinator, Jessica, was an absolute dream and we are so thankful to have had her stellar skills helping us the last month before the big day! The wedding was perfection! My daughter and son-in-law had the wedding of their dreams and I highly recommend Building 177 and all the people connected with this venue.

Building 177 is the perfect location if you're looking to create and build your own wedding vision! I loved the simple, clean aesthetic that the indoor venue offered. You can only use their preferred bartenders and caterers (unless you want to ...
pay an additional fee) but we loved the service we received! Buona Forchetta is a must! (just make sure you have water figured out, those little details are easy to slip if you're bringing in everything yourself) Aly is awesome, they will work with you and make sure the day runs as smoothly as it can.

We had our wedding at Bldg 177 on 9/6/19 and it was everything we hoped for and more. I work in events and am very detailed when it comes to reviewing contracts and logistics, and Aly and Taylor were SO responsive, transparent, polite and easy...
to work with throughout my year of planning and dozens of emails. They get an A+ for customer service and organization, and even helped me secure an after party at The Lot next door. Great vendors make a great experience, and I cannot recommend this location and team enough - hopefully I'll get a chance to work with them again on another project! :)

Incredible venue! We recently got married and had our ceremony right outside in front of the fountain (Luce Court) and then had the reception inside building 177. The venue is incredible! It is a beautiful open, blank canvas, with great lightin...

Highly recommend this venue! This was the first and only venue my husband and I looked at. We absolutely fell in love with the space at first glance. Our wedding was PERFECT and the entire staff was super helpful, professional and amazing to...
work with. They truly have the best team! If you are looking for a venue for your wedding or a big event, this is by far the best place to have it! The space comes with beautiful wooden floors, high ceilings, white walls/columns and windows which provide enough natural sunlight for the perfect setting. Building 177 is a blank canvas that allows you to create a space exactly the way you envision. We cannot stress how much we love this venue. It will forever hold a special place in our hearts. Thank you Building 177 and the entire Moniker team for making our wedding day everything and more. We are still on cloud 9 thinking about it!

We got married 2 weeks ago at Building 177 and we couldn't have been happier with everything!! The space is beautiful, Aly and her team are amazing, the bridal suite is amazing, the parking is wonderful, and the list goes on and on. We looked...
high and low for the perfect wedding venue and found nothing more perfect than Building 177. Their price is extremely reasonable for what they offer: - Great surrounding parking lots - Includes tables and chairs - Up to 300 guests (seated) which is AMAZING - An expansive vendor list (and they give lots of affordable options for catering as well) Shout out to Harvest Kitchen who catered our wedding -- amazing, delicious, organic food - Their bridal suite, like I said is beautiful - Their team provides a flip!! Which is insane! All in all, you'll be so happy to be married at Building 177. We highly recommend it!!!!

ur friends and family comfortably; plus it made room for a great dance party. Moniker made our wedding go so smoothly and I knew I could always count on them to ease my nerves and provide help whenever I needed it. They were amazing and I am so thankful for them.

vent - the staff was courteous, professional, personable and genuinely caring about the Bride's vision coming to full fruition. The space itself is beautiful for the ceremony, cocktail reception, photos and wedding reception. The outdoor courtyard is lovely for photo opportunities.
