AWARD WINNER (3X)
Thanks to recommendations from couples on The Knot
The Madison was constructed in the early 1900s as the residence of the upscale faucet manufacturer Republic Brass Company. We became enamored with the space's history and potential future after it had been abandoned for years. As event planners, we were confident that we could combine the space's historic industrialism with contemporary minimalism to create a setting as distinctive as the guests. The Madison, the leading venue for Cleveland's most important events, opened its doors in 2018 and was built to combine the best elements of the past and present-day. It is located in the center of the Midtown Cleveland.
The possibilities are endless at The Madison. Don't be fooled by the minimalist style; we've considered every possibility and are prepared to design an event that goes above and beyond your expectations. Every element of The Madison, from the architecture to the aesthetics, is intended to encourage creativity. The open layout, twenty-foot ceilings, and white brick walls make for a stunning minimalist backdrop for your event or the ideal blank canvas on which to tell your own special tale.
We can do the ceremony on-site in six different ways at the Madison Venue. The Patio and our main dancefloor ceremony style are two of our most popular choices. Our goal is to try to come up with something special for the reception that sets each wedding apart from the others. To ensure that no two weddings at The Madison look alike, we strive to personalize and create each one. Together, we create a 3D floor plan and design layout to demonstrate the potential of The Madison Venue.
With the goal to help you create the atmosphere you desire, The Madison also offers you a good selection of in-house rentals. We assist in capturing those moments for your visitors without charging extra by providing a digital photobooth with your rental. Our in-house rentals include disco balls, crystal chandeliers, bistro lights, LED Cafe lights, uplighting, ceiling drapery & decor, ceremony drapery, and a black and white checkered dancefoor. What more could you ask for when everything is right here at The Madison!
The Foundry Room & Patio, typically our cocktail hour space, offers a distinct atmosphere that is hard to match. What more could a small or intimate wedding require than a patio, all-white brick, high ceilings, natural light, and specialized mobile bars? The Foundry Room, with its adjacent patio and bistro lights, is THE BEST cocktail hour venue if you want to use our main area for your ceremony. The Madison team is flipping the room for your reception reveal while your guests are sipping cocktails!
Our most recent room, The Grove, was an old storage space that was transformed in 2023 and opened in 2024. Since its grand debut, The Grove has been a huge hit! The Grove has hosted ceremonies, microweddings, intimate vow exchanges, first looks, and our newest addition—THE AFTER HOURS BAR!

My husband and I got married at The Madison this October and it was wonderful!!! The four rooms in the venue guarantee there is a space for everyone. We had our rager of a party in...
the main room, a cigar bar outside, a speak easy in the Grove (which was quiet for those not wanting to be blasted by music or watch a football game) and our cocktail hour in the Foundry! The venue is a blank canvas, so it allows for creativity and you can really build your wedding into exactly what you envision. They have a list of preferred vendors for you to get started, but you are not required to use these vendors. We were able to cater BBQ, place a light up dance floor and cold sparks, choose our speciality drinks, and bringing drapery and lighting to turn the space into our vision! They have a phone booth for messages, a greenery wall, couch rounds, and a giant swing already built in to the space that you are able to use! The venue itself is a beautiful space, but what truly makes this venue stand out is its staff. We were continuously impressed by the flexibility, professionalism, and kindness we were shown from Daryl, Anthony, and Cher. For starters, they let me bring a donkey and a cow in cocktail hour (which was a must have for me)!! Second, at each walk through or meeting we had at the venue, they made us feel comfortable, excited, and valued!! Daryl would greet us with a huge smile and a hug and would hype us up the ENTIRE TIME. We would always leave saying ‘we can’t wait to see them next time!’ or ‘oh my gosh, they’re the BEST!’. Third, Daryl responded to all my emails timely. Once you start wedding planning, you’ll know what a breath of fresh air that is. Lastly, on the weekend of our event, the crew went above and beyond to make everything run smoothly. They experimented on some new drapery hangings (which looked impeccable), welcomed our family and wedding party with open arms, and set up a champagne toast for my husband and I for when we arrived before the ceremony!! They saw to every detail and were so excited for us the entire time! The week leading up to our wedding, my husband and I agreed that the energy and love we received from the staff at The Madison was essential in making our special day even more special. I would recommend working with Daryl, Anthony, and Cher to anyone!!!!! I feel as though they became our friends over the year and we are so lucky to have had the opportunity to work with them!

My husband and I got married this past November and I can say wholeheartedly that choosing The Madison as our wedding venue was one of the best choices we made in our planning proc...
ess.
From the very beginning, Cher and the whole team made our planning process seamless. From helping us with styling and decor, to answering my late night texts with questions, Cher was an absolute dream to work with. She helped my mom set everything up and made sure our wedding was absolutely perfect. Everything looked exactly how we dreamed and I truly could not have asked for a more perfect day. Our guests raved about the staff and how beautiful and perfect the venue was. I had no idea if anything even went wrong during our reception because Cher did an absolute amazing job coordinating with our other vendors, and handled everything she could to make it easy for us to relax and enjoy our special day.
We truly cannot recommend The Madison and the team enough!

everything was said and done. From the beginning of our engagement/wedding planning all the way up the big day, they were with us each and every step of the way. They were so kind, so caring, so accommodating, so personable, so genuine, and I am actually kind of sad that our wedding day is over because now I won't have an excuse to get to see or talk to them! lol ... regardless, our wedding day was truly the best day of our entire lives and we have Anthony, Daryl, and Cher to thank for that. They are some of the sweetest and most caring souls I have ever come across and they really, truly care about making your big day one to remember. I will forever, and ever, and ever, recommend The Madison!

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. The Madison was the first venue we toured for our wedding and it set the bar incredibly high. The entire team welcomed us with smiles, i...
deas, and so much fun every time we were in contact. Cher worked with us and I can't say enough kind things about this woman. She was on top of every detail, communicated better than I could have ever asked for, never made me worry, and genuinely just felt like a friend through the whole process. The space itself is beautiful and so customizable which is my favorite part. They work so well with you to create your dream space (even if you don't know what that looks like, they will help you!) and stay within your budget. I truly truly cannot recommend The Madison enough. Every couple deserves a team that makes you feel the way they made us feel. If you are lucky enough to work with Cher or any of the team, your wedding day (or any event) will be beyond perfect.

Thanks to them, we danced the night away and had the absolute best time! I cannot recommend The Madison enough—the space, the staff, and the experience were all amazing. If you’re looking for a dream wedding venue, this is it!

h easier to look at my layout, add in my guests and message Anthony if I had any questions. However, Anthony was kind enough to give me his personal number in case I had any last minute changes.
The Madison fit my 190 guest list and then some. Their bartenders were awesome and my catering & DJ loved working with the venue. The Madison is a blank canvas that lets you bring your image to life. You're able to add a dance floor, disco ball, and different lighting throughout the venue, I loved the getting ready rooms and the swing next to the bar. It's a great spot for a photo booth. The Madison also has an extra party room, called the Grove, that's perfect for a rehearsal dinner.
The employees of the Madison helped me so much throughout my day and I couldn't thank them enough. Whether it was Anthony making sure we had the right drinks, Daryl wearing a pink suit (My favorite color) and Cher helping me bustle my dress. The employees here will go above and beyond for you.
I definitely recommend the Madison for your wedding and any other event you may have!

s are brought to life.
Daryl and his teams personable nature and kind-hearted spirits made us feel immediately at ease. They listened intently to our vision, no matter how detailed, and with infinite patience, they turned every idea into a reality. Their professionalism was unmatched—every moment, every detail, was handled with care and precision, making the entire process seamless from start to finish.
The Madison itself is a canvas of possibility, and in the hands of Daryl and his team, it transformed into a space that perfectly captured the love and joy of our milestone celebration. From the first meeting to the last goodbye, we were treated not just as clients, but as cherished guests.
If you are searching for a venue that doesn’t just host events but creates memories that linger like the sweetest dream, look no further. The Madison—and the incredible Daryl and team—are truly extraordinary.

We highly recommend The Madison to any couple looking for a beautiful, stress-free (no literally, I was so calm) wedding day.
We will forever cherish the memories that were made here and we are so thankful for everything Daryl and Anthony did to make our day so magical. <3

Being in the event industry ourselves, we knew finding a team of key partners to work with would be pivotal to success for our wedding. Anthony and Daryl at The Madison knocked it...
out of the park.
We wanted a fun, unique and industrial-vibe venue and this venue provides all that and so much more. It is a blank canvas that truly allows you to turn it into whatever your vision may be. The service, ideas, and personal attention the team at The Madison give each event is incredible. From our first meeting with them, we knew they were the team for us to create a successful and memorable wedding.
They offer a variety of bar package tiers to fit your budget and are able to accommodate custom / signature drinks for an additional personal touch. The bar staff they provide are true sweethearts. When it comes to load in / setup, they are there to not only help you, but are willing to accommodate anything and everything you may need.
The venue offers a variety of different spaces to accommodate everything from a cocktail hour, ceremony, reception and outdoor spaces all at one venue. Truly, everything you could ask for. There are a handful of preferred caterers they work well with to provide anything you could need from a catering perspective.
The venue is a blank slate, and with that, allows you to add your own creativity to develop the event you vision. Ample amount of available electric also allows for pretty much any level of production you are looking to host here.
The venue is great, but - as mentioned above - it is the people who truly build your team. The two gentlemen who run this facility (Anthony and Daryl) are the ones behind the magic here. They honestly care and have your event’s best interest in mind. They are willing to step in and assist on anything needed and are truly team players when it comes to building your vendor team.
Thank you to the two of you for making our wedding dreams come true.

I don't think my words are truly going to capture how AMAZING this venue is but I'm going to attempt it.
If you're a person with minimal words, go ahead and just book this venue. ...
You won't regret it.
I had a small wedding here, when I say small I mean 25 people small, which honestly is a huge task in itself.
We had our ceremony and our dinner in "The Grove" portion of "The Madison". It was absolutely a dream come true.
I wanted a wedding where we could dress up, walk down the isle in the most beautiful fashion, but I struggled for so long to find a venue that would capture a small but beautiful dream without dumping a ton of money into the decorations. We searched in many states, destination venues, everywhere and The Madison/The Grove overachieved every single dream I ever had.
I am also not local, so I wasn't able to plan or visualize anything in person until the day of the wedding. Daryl, the most amazing human I had never met, acted like my best friend from day one. He facetimed me, congratulated us, he took every question with grace, he helped me plan and guide me on the "what to dos". Planning a wedding when you've attended two weddings in your adult life is hard, planning a wedding in a unfamiliar place is hard, planning a small wedding, ill conclude is even harder as it's hard to wrap your mind around wedding costs, when in your head you just need the smallest details. However, The Madison venue has everything laid out for you. They have the most amazing partnerships. I reached out to many vendors for quotes and although I didn't pick everyone through their recommendations, the biggest warming feeling was felt speaking with every single vendor they had. They all raved about the venue itself, the people, the incredible moments that get put together.
I had moments I wanted to cherish, I had put together small details that I wanted displayed, all boxed in a million plastic boxes and they set everything up for me in a million more ways than I ever imagined. There's so many different blank canvases here,
white brick walls, washed brick walls, industrial modern, amazing greenery walls, giant mirrors, natural brick & greenery walls, a patio. Everything flowed so wonderfully, I didn't worry. They ran over and guided everything as we transitioned and I felt like I'd known them my whole life. I cannot begin to explain the amazing venue these humans have. Please please book here. The venue is so beautiful, the owners are amazing.
Oh, also, bring your dog. It's amazing.

ny had taken over director positions the spring leading up to our wedding and let me just say that was the BEST thing to ever happen for us and The Madison!! They are beyond amazing. Planning with them was so smooth. We left every walk through feeling so relieved because of them. They are truthfully experts in what they do. All of our problems were solved, questions answered and anything we wanted they made happen with no questions asked. They were always available to talk or answer any questions that may have come up which I was very appreciative of.
They gave us access to the venue the day before for set up since they had nothing booked which was extremely nice. I know some venues won’t offer this or they will have you pay more for early access. Since they also had nothing booked the day after we were able to pick up our things on that Monday. We were able to avoid large same day pick up fees from some of ours vendors since they allowed us to come back Monday which was so nice of them and saved us a lot of money!
Unfortunately it rained all day and we were not able to have our ceremony outside. They helped us create our rain backup plan and worked closely with our wedding planner to do everything they could to make it perfect! We had a larger guest count which made the inside ceremony a little more difficult since we needed to do a room flip after to be ready for the reception. Daryl and Anthony were there helping set up the ceremony space and helped with the room flip after the ceremony was over which was beyond nice of them.
Once it was time for dinner they both continuously checked not only on us but on our parents as well. They wanted us to be able to focus on each other and be in the moment and it really showed. Daryl even brought us drinks so that we could sit together and just enjoy our dinner. We were completely blow away at how much they truthfully cared about us on our special day.
Our guests have not stopped talking about our wedding and how amazing it was. Everyone loved the venue because of how different it was compared to any wedding they have been to before. We had 260+ guests and no one ever felt crowded or on top of each other. Oh, and the drinks at the bar were phenomenal!! Such good bartending staff!!
If you’re looking for a venue to wow your guests and staff that is going to do anything to make your day perfect then this is the place for you!! If I could give them a million stars I would. The absolute best!!!

they have treated myself and my staff with the utmost respect. They are so much fun, they truly care about the clients event and the vendor teams they work with! It’s stress free and hassle free with them. They are the best thing to ever happen to The Madison. Not to mention their outstanding bar services company, Licursi Bartending. We can’t wait to go back and work with them in the future!

operation and extremely attentive. THEY ARE ALL HARD WORKERS and have wonderful communication. Daryl, Anthony and their staff went above and beyond and no request was too big or too small for them to tackle. The guests were all smiles, and the entire event went off without a hitch. These two are incredibly hard workers who genuinely care about their clients. They made sure I had everything I needed to oversee the event smoothly. I can't recommend them enough for their exceptional service and dedication! If you need a venue that will support you from start to finish, book the Madison.

rst walkthrough and worked with our coordinator and vendors to make sure we had the best day. Kim was there the day of and worked the whole time making sure everything was taken care of and we were able to focus on dancing the night away with family and friends.
Denise and the bar staff handled every detail for the bar. We got so many compliments on the drinks and the level of service they provided.
I would highly recommend The Madison and The Madison team. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect day.

d great suggestions and the day was perfect. We had the wedding ceremony in the main area, with the cocktail hour in the smaller room that leads to the enclosed beautiful patio. The main area was quickly flipped while our guests enjoyed appetizers and drinks. We have so many wonderful memories from this special day that we will always treasure.

s amazing. The venue looked great for our wedding; and the bartenders and crew worked their tails off the whole evening. The Madison worked really well with all our vendors. Would 10/10 recommend anyone looking for a wedding venue to check out The Madison. It’s a really cool space, big, can accommodate a large crowd, and the staff will go out of their way to take care of you.

the team at the Madison worked tirelessly to make every last detail perfect. Although they have preferred vendors, you’re allowed to use any vendor you would like. There are multiple rooms and areas for a full service event. We had our ceremony in the Foundry Room, cocktail hour on the patio, and the reception in the main room. Our guests raved all night about the space and couldn’t believe they hadn’t been to a wedding here yet. I can’t recommend spending your day at the Madison enough!
