Beautiful structure of a refurbished old time garage! I would absolutely have my reception here! The upstairs makes you feel less crammed with a large guest list, and the ambiance is an ideal for a wedding with a laid-back appeal.

Renewed old building turned wedding venue. Updated windows, sky light brings in natural light for pictures. Bathrooms were well kept. When a paper towel dispenser went down they were quick to refill. Excellent staff. Only wish there were an...

My husband and I just had our wedding here and I could not recommend this venue enough! One of the main compliments we got was just how beautiful the venue was, you really don’t even need a ton of decor because it is already such a beautiful sp...
ace. The staff was excellent and so attentive and we loved how flexible the bar options are for weddings and more. If you’re looking for a timeless, beautiful venue for your wedding or any event, The Gibson is it!

I truly cannot express how much of a phenomenal experience we had at the Gibson Social Club for our wedding this last May. The staff was tremendous from the beginning, and all the way afterwards. We had as little or as much support as we needed...
throughout the process (and lord knows I had a lot of questions!), and could not have asked for better service. Our guests still rant and rave about how beautiful the space was, and how awesome the staff was. It was such a flexible space both with furniture and setup, all the way to the bar program and schedule of the day. If I were to do it all again, I wouldn’t trade this venue for a single thing.

My husband and I hosted our wedding reception at the Gibson and it was pretty great! The space is truly stunning. We were complimented for weeks after our event on the beauty and atmosphere of the venue. My husband and I aren't great with deco...
r so one of the benefits of this place was that you don't have to do much to it to dress it up - it looks beautiful all on it's own.
They offered us (the bride and groom) a custom ordered coffee beverage upon arrival - it was a really cute gesture. They helped me find creative solutions as a breastfeeding bride to serve me in a way that made it look like I was drinking alcohol to avoid well-meaning guests buying me drinks. They even communicated this to their staff so that I didn't have to worry about reminding them I didn't want alcohol throughout the night.
In coordinating with their team, they're quick to tell you that couples who use their venue benefit from using a wedding planner as they do not offer planning services - we didn't think this was necessary if your vendors all communicate well (with each other and with the venue) but they don't offer much in the way of day-of service aside from the bar. There's no staff to move tables for dancing, etc, no food/bussing service staff, and no assistance with decor. None of this is a deal breaker and they do their best to communicate this early on but some of these services, we just assumed all venues offered and that's not the case, so it's just good to keep in mind in advance.
Overall, we were very pleased with the experience and there's not much we would have changed!
