RED SPACE

Unreal venue and can’t wait to have more events here.

Red Space was the perfect venue for our wedding. It has so much character on its own, everything we added to it was just extra icing on the cake. Brooke & Cher were both SO helpful, kind, and easy to work with. I would 100% recommend this space for any event!!!

The space is cool and we were able to make it our own. I loved the day there and we had a blast, but I wouldn’t book with them again and I caution potential couples to do their research before booking at Red Space. From start to finish there were issues. They start out with a lower entry price and then attempt to nickel and dime you until they cost more than the high end competitors. Please note that all of my issues were resolved by Red Space, but only because I was diligent about pushing back and questioning charges - with exception of the tear down fees that I hired another vendor to do rather than pay the inflated Red Space charge. Initially, we were told that parking would be included for free if we booked the day of our walk through. We did book that day, but a claimed miscommunication resulted in the charge on our contract. That was discussed and waived, but it was the first of many red flags. The next 2-3 revisions in the contract included removing catering fees from the contract that were never discussed. Additionally, we found out that Red Space charges vendors to become a “preferred” vendor and then they receive a kick back from that vendor in the form of a fee. The vendors then charge you a special Red Space price or a percentage of the consumables that’s passed directly back to Red Space. If you book with a preferred vendor, you then get a $500 credit but by my calculations that still netted them with an extra ~$1,000. Many discussions were had between Red Space and they denied this occurrence, but we informed this by multiple caterers. I went line by line through the contract, questioning things that weren’t discussed in our walkthrough and with each revision to make sure things weren’t put back in the contract. I highly suggest potential couples do the same. Finally, we were able to get into the space the day before our wedding for set up. Otherwise, we would have had to pay a vendor to do the full set up day-of, which we were not aware of until the week of the wedding. We had to pay for specifically timed delivery of rentals to make the allowed window for set up, which was a last minute and unexpected cost. We also found out 3 days prior to the wedding that if we didn’t have the Red Space tables and chairs put back into storage by the end of the event that we’d be charged our security deposit plus $250, so a total of $750 to move their equipment. We paid other vendors to pick up that task for far less, so we didn’t have to ask our guests to stay late to help clean up. Lastly, the space was not clean and there were items broken. All that being said, I loved our wedding day and we had a ton of fun there. Our Event Manager, Cher, was very hands on and helpful! My long winded explanation is to help future couples go into a booking at Red Space with open eyes, far more information than I had and far less last minute stress.

The team at Red Space was great.
