Your Wedding Deserves More Then a Day, Discover The Broz Full Weekend Experience At The Broz Event Venue, couples can enjoy a truly all-inclusive weekend wedding experience designed for comfort, connection, and unforgettable moments. Instead of rushing through a single day, you and your wedding party can settle in on Friday with early check-in, time to rehearse, host your rehearsal dinner, enjoy cocktails in the Speakeasy, and set up decor at your own pace. With eight boutique hotel rooms on-site, your closest friends and family stay together, enjoy the property, and avoid the stress of driving between locations. This extended timeline allows you to relax, connect, and begin your celebration with ease. On your wedding day, you’ll enjoy early access to our beautifully appointed bridal and groom suites and the freedom to choose from multiple indoor and outdoor ceremony locations throughout the property. From a romantic garden ceremony to an elegant indoor “I do,” your wedding flows seamlessly into your cocktail hour, reception, dinner, and dance, all within the same venue. When the evening winds down, your wedding party retires upstairs to the boutique hotel, keeping the celebration close and intimate. On Sunday, couples often take advantage of the opportunity to host a gift opening or on-site brunch, creating a warm and memorable final gathering before checkout. This fully immersive, Friday-to-Sunday wedding retreat is what makes The Broz one of the most unique all-inclusive wedding weekend venues in the region. The Broz is a place where your entire celebration lives under one roof, all weekend long.

We had our wedding at The Broz this fall, and we could not be happier with our experience! Ryan and Jenny were so flexible and caring, and it’s clear they truly know how to run a w...

edding venue. Jenny and Tina were also incredibly kind, patient, and understanding with all of my (sometimes many!) emails, which meant so much to us. We received countless compliments on how beautiful the venue was. Honestly, it needs little to no extra decorations—it’s naturally stunning on its own. We’re so excited that this gorgeous space has found the right owners, and we can’t wait to see many more couples enjoy their perfect day here too. A huge shout-out to Tina, our day-of contact and ceremony coordinator. Right as our ceremony was about to begin, the rain started. Tina came up to me calmly, offered different suggestions, and helped us navigate the situation with ease. The team even opened the bar half an hour early so guests could grab a drink while we waited it out. Once the rain passed, the Broz team quickly wiped down the benches and got everything ready so we could start. We are so grateful for everything Tina did to make our day run smoothly. We also rented the lodging rooms, which was such a great decision. Having our bridal party stay with us the night before and the night of made the whole experience even more special. And the heated bathroom floors? Such a perfect touch! We highly recommend having your wedding at The Broz. Whether you’re from New Prague or traveling in, your guests will be absolutely wowed, and your wedding photos will be nothing short of amazing.

veryone was nice and friendly. Things we loved: -The ceremony and reception are on one floor - it is a pretty big space! -The various rooms are different - easy for minimal decor. -There are so many unique places to take pictures. -Getting ready rooms are onsite and cute! Things to consider: -Parking is okay, but the actual lot is small. We had 200 guests and it was totally fine.

She even helped us with setting up decorations! We received so many compliments regarding the venue. We have absolutely no regrets regarding our location choice. My wife and I highly recommend the Broz for your wedding!

As a fellow wedding vendor (wedding photographer) I would highly recommend Weddings at The Broz! Their staff was so helpful and nice and the building and grounds were kept so well!...

I was very impressed with everything they have going there! The multiple backgrounds helped with a huge variety of photos and the reception room is the perfect slate to decorate however you would like!

verything was done in a timely manner. The communication with Cally at The Broz was awesome, she was very responsive when I had questions and needed answers and was very organized throughout our contact with her. The Broz is unlike any other venue, it has such charm and history behind it which shows throughout the whole property. The little sections of The Broz made the whole wedding day very transitional for our guests and we just really enjoyed everything that the Broz had to offer us.

e our big day seamless. The outdoor ceremony was beautiful and it was so nice to have dinner and dancing in separate spots. The whole venue is picturesque and all of our guests kept commenting on how beautiful The Broz is! The bridal suite and groomsmen room were perfect to get ready in and it helped to have everything in 1 location. I cannot recommend The Broz enough!

We booked our 10-10-2020 wedding at The Broz before we were even engaged, we just knew it was the perfect location! We were married outside, had the cocktail hour both inside and o...

n the patio and the dinner was in the ballroom indoors, party continued in the brick room. Everything about this place is absolutely breathtaking and stunning. The amount of history and love felt here makes it very special. There’s SO many places for outstanding photo opportunities we didn’t know where to start! The staircase inside and the staircases outside, the balcony, the ramp, the bar — it’s all so so cool. We are so thankful for The Broz / Abri’tin team for allowing us to continue with our dream wedding in the covid era, it was the best party!!! We would highly recommend to anyone who wants a unique and quality space.

Weddings at the Broz- We actually booked before the venue opened so we took a huge leap of faith and we are so glad we did. We loved working with Mollie. She answered all of our qu...

estions and made us feel so much better during this covid year. They do have preferred catering companies which can push it up and over a budget, but we were really happy with what we recieved! Everyone still asks us where we got our food and our late night pizza. People complimented the venue all night. It is so beautiful. We loved not having to decorate a space to make it look nice, rather we had limited decorations to enhance and compliment such a beautiful space. I cannot imagine getting married in another place. I wish we could spend a day in the venue just to appreciate it again. Some of the benefits we also noted were ease of parking, close proximity to our hotel, the gorgeous downtown.

The Broz was an absolutely gorgeous venue for our wedding. The architecture and design of the building is stunning, both inside and outside. My husband and I, as well as our guests...

, especially enjoyed the back patio, and the beautiful staircase leading up to the string-lit rooftop. The food from This Little Piggy catering was delicious, and we loved the friendliness and excellent service of the catering staff. The bartenders were also phenomenal. We did experience quite a bit of turnover with venue directors (three different directors in less than a year), which snagged the planning process a bit, but the perfection of the caterers, bartenders, and overall event staff on the day of our event overshadowed this and we are so glad we chose The Broz for our wedding.

see how they restored it. All the spaces are so beautiful and our guests continue to rave about how perfect and beautiful it was. We really enjoyed having seating available and during the dance for folks who aren’t interested in dancing so they can sit and chat. Jackie was so responsive and wonderful to work with. I can’t have imagined a better location for our wedding.

Jackie, the event coordinator was great to work with and was always available to answer questions as we were planning. Their in house catering option, Distinctive Catering did not disappoint and went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. Our guests raved about the meal, especially the wood fired pizzas as a late night snack!

Wedding at The Broz was a perfect choice for our daughters wedding. From the signing of the initial contract to the day and evening of the wedding we received FIRST CLASS service ...

and attention from Jackie and her team of venue, catering and bar tenders. Quick response to every question professional service and solutions to any challenge. They really worked hard to make the day a success. The Broz is a beautiful and breathtaking historical venue and we were delighted with the function and space available for our 200 guests. Never felt crowded and the well appointed seating and gathering areas were perfect for the guests. We used every available inch of the venue and were super excited that our weather allowed us to use the outdoor patio area (even in October) for gathering and socializing by our guests. If you are looking for an extraordinary venue with top notch food, drink, service and planning you owe it to yourself to check out Weddings at The Broz.

We had our wedding October 5th at the Broz. The Broz was the only place I looked at. I walked in and Jackie gave me a tour and I decided on the spot that this was the place. (no...

te my now husband did not see the place until the day of our wedding and he loved it!) Jackie was wonderful to work with. It was a last minute decision the day of our wedding on where to have the ceremony at the Broz. I decided the morning of the wedding that it was too cold and that we wanted the ceremony inside. Jackie said no problem and we had it inside. We had the dinner in the ballroom area and the dance we moved to more of a lounge are which was Jackie's idea and it was the perfect space for the dance. My guest complemented how beautiful the space was. I highly recommend the Broz!

ly beautiful and provides the perfect setting for your big day. One thing that stood out compared to other venues was how versatile the space truly is. The venue can accommodate indoor/ outdoor preferences - both of which are gorgeous. Jackie, the coordinator, was a pleasure to work with and offered ongoing support and expertise throughout our months of planning and preparation. Day of the wedding, Jackie and the entire staff were amazing and helped the day run flawlessly. By the end of the night, the staff had gone above and beyond by organizing all of our belongings and materials making it quick clean-up. I am so happy we chose this venue for our special day. It was everything we hoped for... and more! Highly recommend!!

e venue had. The entire downstairs area is yours for the entire day, and the upstairs has lovely “getting ready” rooms for the bridal parties. After our ceremony we had a social hour and guests enjoyed being able to use the outside patio as well as the indoor spaces while the ballroom was being set up for dinner. The food was awesome, and our servers, bartenders, and venue coordinator were all wonderful and so helpful throughout the day. Leading up to our wedding day we were in contact with our coordinator frequently, and she checked in on us regularly to ensure we had everything we wanted or needed for our day. Our photographers were amazed at the opportunities for photos because the place has been beautifully renovated; I hardly needed to decorate because of the architecture and tasteful pieces already in place. Our day went perfectly, and I can’t say enough about how much we enjoyed this venue! We recommend Hotel Broz highly—we know your day will be better because of it.
