The APT is the BEST small venue for ANY occasion one can dream up!!!
I found The APT in my search for a wedding / reception venue to host our intimate party of immediate family-on...
ly, consisting of a mere 10-15 guests. I was panicking, nothing I was finding online was meant for so few people, nor did those results have the appropriate pricing for such a small party… then I came across The APT!
The site was clear in pricing, what The APT offered, and how you could customize your event. I initially emailed Chris Villegas, the owner ( a gem to work with!), prior to us meeting to discuss what I had in mind, however our meeting was the best! Seeing The APT in person, I could see my wedding laid out before me, as Chris showed us all the different LED colored lighting options to add ambiance (our wedding was during the early afternoon, and it still made a huge difference!), his various decor options he could add for us, so many special touches he could provide as part of choosing The APT for our special day, and we wouldn’t have to do any of it ourselves, as one may expect from a smaller venue, but don’t let the size of The APT fool you, it’s BEAUTIFUL and SLEEK on its own, and whatever vibe you envision, Chris will make it come to life!!!
The day of our wedding, my now husband and I walked in, and were speechless… it looked so beautiful! We had purchased minimal decor as we wanted to spend a bit more on food (which we could have catered ourselves by a friend, a HUGE plus for us!), and attire, however, what Chris had provided for decor, along with his “green wall”, and our combined vision that we discussed during our meeting… it was GORGEOUS!!!
I have to laugh and out myself for a moment; I’ve been married twice before this, and both times my in-laws demanded I have a larger event than what I wanted. By FAR, this, my third wedding, the smallest, was the most lovely!
I will be posting my review everywhere I can, as Chris / The APT deserves it, and people need to know of this great space!!!
Definitely a 5/5 ⭐️, A++, HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!
