Fathom Gallery 14th Street

What an absolutely amazing experience we had working with the Fathom Gallery to plan our recent October micro wedding! From planning through the day of Kristen and Emily were a joy to work with and put us at ease that everything would be seamless and perfect. The Gallery was such a gorgeous location for our wedding, our pictures are gorgeous both inside the gallery and on the rooftop garden, and our guests enjoyed it equally as much!

The venue was perfect for our micro-wedding!

We loved having an intimate wedding at Fathom Gallery. They were very accommodating with our preferences and we appreciated the unique touches the venue offered.

I am extremely disappointed that I chose this venue for our wedding ceremony and reception. We had planned our wedding from California, so we booked the venue site unseen based off of reviews. Because of this, I feel obligated to write a review based on our experience. Our contract stated "The Gallery' Special Events Manager will be accessible throughout your event. The Manager will ensure that the venue and surrounding site are ready for your event, and will meet with you prior to the beginning of your event. The Manager will be accessible to you at anytime during your event, and a contact number will be given to you to reach the manager if they are away from the venue. The Manager will meet with you again to coordinate the ending of your event." Unfortunately, the special events manager had a medical emergency, which meant NO ONE would be available for our event the entire day. This lead to several issues. First of all, our photographer was unable to meet my husband and his groomsmen at the allocated place next to venue for pictures prior to the ceremony due to no one being able to answer his questions about the venue while trying to set up. Secondly, the alcohol that we had dropped off at the venue for our caterer to serve at our wedding was stolen from Fathom Gallery by the event from the night before. We were not informed that our alcohol had been stolen until less than half an hour before our wedding ceremony, so my husband's groomsmen were busy buying booze with my husband's credit card at the nearest liquor store minutes before our ceremony. Fathom eventually refunded us for the alcohol 5 weeks later. Fathom never took responsibility for the events that followed due to the absence of the special events manager. As far as the rest of the night goes-- my guests had no idea where to put their bags so personal belongings were thrown all over the place, we were unable to figure out how to dim the lights, we couldn't find whiteboard markers for the cabinets which they had advertised, and no one checked in with us or was available for questions. The only apology I received from anyone came two days after the wedding in the form of an email from the event manager which stated "I was very sorry to hear about the alcohol confusion, but from what I understand together we were able to get replacements prior the the bar being open, and the event went well after that point". When we asked for an explanation as to how our alcohol was stolen from the previous night's event, the only explanation we received was that something like that had never happened before. I was very unhappy with how the owner, Bill, treated us after the event when I spoke to him on the phone. If I could do it all over again, I would not choose Fathom Gallery. Their lack of responsibility in regards to not upholding their end of the contract was not only frustrating, but also really disappointing. Brides beware, this is not a venue that will be considerate or respectful to you as a bride in the event that something goes awry. Based on our experience, I would not recommend this venue.
