The venue really speaks for itself. It's a gorgeous historic venue with beautiful natural light pouring in through all the windows. We felt like we barely needed to decorate the sp...
ace as it was already so pretty. It easily accommodated our approximately 80 guests with separate rooms for bartending, food buffet, dance floor/dining room, and welcome space. As bride and groom we got our own private space to retire to (complete with chairs, couch, full length mirror, and mini fridge) when we needed a break and we had our own private bathroom. We were able to set up the day before and have early access to the venue the day of. Ashley was available for a quick chat a few times before our wedding date and was at the venue the whole time during our event. She even did a walkthrough in the space before our wedding date which was very helpful for decor ideas and planning the layout. She was there to assist the wedding planner and even did some event coordination herself which we are endlessly grateful for. There were a few staffing changes since we had started planning our wedding (about a year in advance) which made it confusing sometimes to know who our point of contact was but their client portal made it easy to communicate with staff quickly. Their packages are pricey but they help with set up, teardown, coordination, taking trash out, stocking bathrooms, and keeping things running on time. The Federal was our dream venue so we definitely thought the price was worth it. Thanks to everyone at The Federal who helped make our day so special!
