Located in the heart of Pioneer Square in Seattle Washington, THE 101 is an industrial-chic, blank-canvas venue full of possibilities!
THE 101 features a unique combination of red and white brick walls, ample natural light and expansive ceilings, creating a stunning ambiance that needs very little, if any, decor. However, we’ve seen clients take this flexibility and create some of the most stunning events.
THE 101 can accommodate a seated reception of up to 200 guests, and many more for a cocktail-style reception.
THE 101 welcomes you to choose your own vendors and can provide you with a list of recommended partners.
THE 101 offers 24 hour rentals so that you can have the venue from 10am on the day of your event to 10am the following day, allowing you plenty of time to set-up and celebrate.
Couples can also choose from a range of decor and services to elevate their celebration – from a photo booth, draping, a ceremony arch and more.
Included with the space rental are tables and chairs for 200 of your favorite people, cocktail tables, a statement making bar. Plus, THE 101 is pet-friendly so your favorite fur friend can be part of the celebration as well.
The team at THE 101 understands how much work goes into a wedding and will strive to create a seamless experience in the lead-up to your big day. You will be provided with a concierge to answer all of your questions about the venue.
Need an event planner? We do that too! From weddings to mitzvahs, milestone celebrations and more, we love a good party and we know a thing or two about planning it. 828 Planning is composed of our expert team of planners who work with you every step of the way to ensure a seamless event from start to finish.

We got married in July 2025 at the 101 and can’t say enough good things about our experience working with their team. We knew we wanted a city-center venue that was both old-school...
Seattle and had all the amenities we needed for a large wedding. We looked at over ten local venues in the Seattle area and immediately knew this was the location for us. From the start, they were communicative, flexible, positive, and helpful. Since we were able to bring in external vendors, they helped guide us towards trusted partners and expertly helped us navigate local vendors we were excited about that were new to them. We go to work planning with Alison in December of 2024 and she helped us map out what needed to be done and when for the wedding. Without her help, I don’t think my husband and I would have been able to enjoy the wedding as much as we did. On the day of the wedding, Alison was unexpectedly unable to be there, so she brought in her co-worker Emily to do day off coordination for us. It was seamless! Emily was amazing and knew all the details we’d planned with Alison in the months leading up to the wedding. We felt so taken care of. Can’t recommend this venue and team enough!

Alison helped us to plan our wedding and did a fantastic job, and while we were nervous about having a different person coordinate the day of, Olivia absolutely knocked it out of the park and couldn't have done a better job. We're still glowing 2 weeks out and wish we could relive it all over again.

We hosted our wedding reception at The 101 in August. We had already gotten married back in May and wanted to gather those we love and celebrate. The 101 offered the perfect place ...
to do that. Their flexibility with vendors and the ability to do a lot of things DIY made them a budget friendly venue. The staff that worked with us through the planning stages were professional and communicative. The day of staff was also so wonderful and made our experience memorable.
So many folks complimented the venue find and having it centrally located made it so easy for folks to travel to us. We had a lot of out of town guests and they were able to stay within walking distance or within close proximity to public transit. It made the whole experience easy.

here was GREAT communication from our concierge. If you are looking for a blank slate to make your own with amazing natural light in the heart of Pioneer square the 101 is the perfect spot. Our guests loved the white brig and large picture windows. This is a must see venue. The pictures truly do not do it justice. We loved the flexibility and the options to pick and choose how we wanted the reception to look and play out. One of the things we loved was there is a complimentary security person and someone from the concierge team that was on site throughout our reception that helped answer questions and navigate everything with our wedding planner. HIGHLY recommend getting married or having any sort of event at this venue. You will not be disappointed.

nue itself is gorgeous with an open-concept layout that’s super versatile—it really allows you to make it your own.
I’m working with Alison through their partial planning package, and she has been such a calming presence. I'm an anxious bride who doesn’t always know what I want, but she's patient, creative, and always quick to respond. I truly feel supported every step of the way. Highly recommend The 101 and their planning services!

This review is for our wedding that took place on 08/17/24. First things first, do not hesitate to choose The 101. From the very start of taking a tour of the venue with Emily, we ...
knew it was the perfect venue for our special day. We went with the partial planning package, and from day 1, Alison was incredible—constantly checking in, offering guidance, and ensuring every detail was covered. She kept an open line of communication and contacted vendors on our behalf when needed. As our big day was approaching, Alison shared great news with us that caused her to unfortunately miss our wedding. Throughout the process, she reassured us with every step of the way that the transition to our day-of coordinator, Sam, would be seamless. When the big day arrived, Sam took over without missing a beat. She made sure we didn't have to lift a single finger and made it stress-free from the morning through the night. We could not be more appreciative of how well Sam took care of not only us, but our entire group of friends and family as well. The entire team at The 101 was beyond organized, handling everything with care and professionalism. They ensured we, as the bride and groom, had everything we needed at all times, making us feel truly taken care of.
Now for the venue itself, it is stunning, versatile, open, and welcoming. The amount of natural lighting that shines through during an August summer made for the perfect photos. One of the biggest highlights and deal-makers for us was how they are dog-friendly, allowing our dog Milo to be our ring bearer and part of our special day. That meant the world to us, and we appreciate how welcoming the staff made Milo feel.
If you’re looking for a venue that is beautiful, well-run, professional, and incredibly accommodating, look no further. Alison, Sam, and Emily made our wedding day absolutely perfect. Highly, highly recommended!
Thank you again, The 101 team! We are forever grateful.

The 101 is an amazing venue!
We particularly appreciated the configurability of the space: you can use drapes to create different areas for the ceremony, reception, and dance floor...
, which simplified the day-of logistics a lot. Being able to book it for a whole 24h also made our lives much easier: they had the whole day to set up decor, plus we were able to party until 2am, get some sleep, and come pick up the decor the next day.
The planning staff were highly professional, reliable, and flexible which made our wedding preparations smooth. I was impressed at their fluency in different cultural wedding traditions and their openness to non-traditional styles.

The 101 was the first and only venue we ever looked at for our wedding -- the price was right and the space is so beautiful. The staff was extremely communicative from day one and ...
we love that we could go see the venue as much as we wanted during Walkthrough Wednesdays. It really helped with the planning process!
We really loved that we could bring in our own vendors (save for bartenders, but we absolutely loved one of their preferred vendors), and that was a huge selling point for us.
From adding draping, to having a huge space for us to do any layout we wanted, to having a street exit that made it easy access for a food truck, this space is truly a blank canvas! We loved all of the brick and fun details. It is also situated in the perfect spot -- easy access to many beautiful photo locations around Pioneer Square and very easy for guests to get to whether they're driving or taking transit.
Could not recommend this venue more!

It’s hard to put into words just how incredible The 101 was throughout the entire experience. From the very beginning before we even decided, they were the easiest venue to book a ...
tour and communicate our ideas with. We really struggled with other venues being accommodating with our working schedules, and the 101 was so easy to work with.
We used their partial planning services and it was worth every penny. Alison helped us bring every dream we had to life, even when we changed our mind or went back and forth. She communicated with our vendors, saw to every detail, was very responsive to our emails, and most importantly, she was incredibly supportive and kind! Every second of the day was accounted for and every decision was made ahead of time.
And the actual day of… wow. We knew it would go well because we trusted them, but we had no idea just how amazing they would truly be. Sam and Emily set the place up perfectly. And when things came up throughout the day, they handled everything smoothly.
There were so many special details they paid attention to, but what blew me away the most was how they always made sure we were taken care of. When we needed a moment away after the ceremony they made sure we got that. They made sure we were fed (which is so important and often overlooked on your wedding day!) and kept the day flowing according to our plan.
We cannot imagine booking with a different venue. The 101 was genuinely happy and excited for us and we appreciate all of the hard work that went into making our special day perfect!

The venue is beautiful and spacious. It's also in a perfect area for taking wedding photos. The rental also comes with table and chairs. We decided to add the photo both last minute and it turned out to be one of the best parts of the reception. We had a great experience with The 101.

I will recommend the team and the space at the 101 repeatedly.
My partner and I booked our NYE wedding at the 101 and added the partial planning package on (with a few other ...
additions). The team at the 101 are amazing, they kept us moving forward and on track with all of our bookings and when we were stumped on how to get where we wanted to be, they had very helpful ideas and suggestions. Our wedding was spectacular, and they were just a huge part of making it so.
The space is expansive and totally customizable, we had so much fun coming up with décor ideas and they all worked because of the flexibility of the space; some of the decor included multiple disco balls hanging from the ceiling, a balloon net for a balloon drop at midnight, tape decorations on the walls, etc.
Having the 24-hr rental period was a lifesaver, being able to leave that night and not have to worry about bringing everything out at that moment was amazing. We returned in the morning and gathered all of our leftover belongings knowing they were safely stored for us overnight. Which on NYE was very helpful, and meant we didn't have to pay additional vendor fees for a pickup after midnight on a holiday.

ekend of our wedding. The space is great--we ultimately had a fairly small wedding (~60 people) and we were able to use the space as a ceremony, dinner, and reception space without moving things around throughout the night. The perks of a 24 hour rental are not to be ignored as we were able to come back the following morning and finish packing up the venue. I would highly recommend checking it out and seeing if it works for your wedding vision!

I got married at The 101 on July 6, 2019. Not only am I lucky to have gotten married before the pandemic hit, but I am so lucky to have gotten married at The 101.
There were so man...
y things I loved about our wedding - but The 101 and my Sarah Seven dress are tied for first place.
I discovered The101 before it was even open. I toured when it was under construction and fell in love with the space the minute I stepped foot in the door - even though it was covered in dust and tarps. Actually I think I fell in love with it just walking up alongside the building, with the brick, and perfect Pioneer Square Doors and incredible hanging flower pots. And when the space was finally done - it was perfect to me. It was modern without being too modern, a little rustic with the beams and brick, had incredible lighting at all times of the day - with the floor to ceiling windows that gave a sense of openness and made you feel good about having an indoor wedding on a beautiful summer day.
I also very much enjoyed planning our wedding with my 101 Coordinator. She was extremely responsive and on top of things, and helped me work thru all the changes that fell in my way. Because the space was such a beautiful blank slate, it was a fun challenge to plan our big day from where the DJ would be, to where the ceremony would happen to how the direction of the tables for dinner. From day one I knew that everything was under control and taken care of. I enjoyed the planning process with my Coordinator (who I now consider a friend) so much I would do it over and over again if I could!
And then there was the big day. It went off without a hitch. Everything was better than I even could have even imagined. Countless guests came up to me to tell me how beautiful and wonderful the venue was.

Absolutely do not use this venue!!! They took $5,000 from us and all they did was show us around a couple of times. We tried to even just broker a deal only get half of our money b...
ack, due to Covid, but they refused. They were completely unsympathetic to our situation, took our money, and we never heard from them again. If I could give them negative stars I would. They took almost weeks sometimes to get back to us, took all of our money for doing nothing, and did not seem to care about their customers at all. PLEASE save yourself some heartache, and use a different venue. And if you do use them, do not give them a single CENT until you absolutely have to.

We had a wedding planned in April 2020. Due to Covid-19, the city had shut down all gatherings and we could not go through with our original wedding plans. It was to our great disa...
ppointment that the 101 made these unexpected changes even worse when they refused to give us back ANY money. This was unreasonable considering they were not able to provide us any services. We lost 6k and we know that many other wedding venues have been much more understanding and forgiving in this area. We are sad and disappointed by this.

The 101 is one of my favorite venues in Seattle! In the heart of Pioneer Square it’s so convenient for your event and I LOVE how the space is so versatile. With the red brick, whit...
e brick and huge windows there are so many different backdrops that you can create multiple different vibes and because everything is neutral you can really make it anything you want it to be. Grace and Sara are so great to deal with and everything was just so seamless and easy. Excited to go back for another event in October, if not before!

I loved having my wedding at THE 101 - the space is spacious and stunning, and it was perfect for me since I planned my entire wedding. Having the vendor flexibility is so great. T...
he team was also so amazing to work with, both leading up to the day, and during the event.
We rented the space the day before the wedding, which was a game changer for set up and prep. If you have the budget to do this, I HIGHLY recommend it. Once we costed out the rehearsal dinner at nearby restaurants, it wasn't that much more expensive to just rent THE 101.
Some things to be aware of: getting the venue at 10am on the day of the wedding means you may not be able to have a rehearsal the night before and load in/set up is very tight.
Other highlights:
The tables and chairs they provide are great
The venue doesn't need much decor
They provide you access to All Seated to design your seating chart/design/etc. and it was really helpful

As professional event and interior designers, our team visits and works in a lot of spaces in and around Seattle. We were thrilled to recently discover The 101 and throw a large ho...
liday party for one of our favorite corporate clients.
The Space- The 101 is a gorgeous venue with brick walls, huge windows and space for days. Each detail was custom designed for the space and our client. We so enjoyed transforming the space into a winter wonderland! The 101 has great bones and a blank canvas allowing for a great deal of creativity in bringing your vision to life.
We can't wait to get back and work with their phenomenal team.

I am a production manager for The Big Fake Wedding and we recently hosted our Seattle event, with 250 + guests, at The 101 and it was remarkable. The venue is located right in Pion...
eer Square, a lively and fun part of town. The interior of the space is gorgeous with multiple textures that allow for diversity of creativity with your backdrops. There are brick walls, white brick walls, simple white walls, and floor to ceiling windows that allow for gorgeous natural light to stream through. The space is really a beautiful canvas for any social event, styled shoot, or wedding.
As if the space was not stellar enough, the staff was so great to work with. Sara and Gordon primarily aided us and they were so pleasant, professional, and willing to accomodate our event needs well.
Overall, our experience at The 101 was fabulous. From start to finish they made us feel cared for and supported. I would highly recommend the 101 to anyone searching for their next event venue.
