We were married at the Venue on Washington on December 10, 2021 and to say we were disappointed with our wedding would be the understatement of the year. There were many mistakes a...
nd errors throughout the night that led to an extremely upsetting experience. Brittney Munoz was the venue wedding planner and we chose Brittney's upgraded wedding planning package with her company Posh Social. Like the review below, we at first loved Brittney. Throughout the planning process Brittney suggested excellent ideas which led us to have 100% trust in her services. WOW, were we wrong. When we arrived at The Venue one hour before the ceremony the place was in COMPLETE DISSARAY. There was no décor or settings on any of the tables, there was no signage, none of the floral arrangements were in place and Brittney's assistants were still working on the arch for the ceremony. We had given Brittney 70 votives that we had personally paid for to place throughout the venue and she did not use any of them. She promised linens, florals and votives on the cocktail tables - instead the cocktail tables were completely bare with not even a linen. At cocktail hour Brittney told me she had lost ALL of our signage for the entire wedding - this included the welcome sign, seating chart, bar sign, signage honoring my deceased father, place cards and dinner menus. Due to Brittney losing the seating chart and place cards our guests had to wait outside in the cold and dark while a solution was found. We were supposed to have a photo both, however there was no photo booth and Brittney claimed that the vendor just no-showed. Brittney and her staff were very unprofessionally dressed; they were in sweatshirts and hoodies. The staff was extremely rude to our guests. There were napkins and silverware missing from multiple tables. Pizzeria Bianco was our caterer and there were several issues with the food service. The head table's salad plates were never cleared, dinner service took almost 2 hours and multiple tables did not receive a main entrée. Throughout the night, Brittney was completely apathetic. She never apologized or worked to find a solution for the multiple issues that went wrong. It was clear that everything that went wrong the night of our wedding was due to Brittney's lack of planning and execution. It took over a month to get a refund from The Bianco Group and Brittney's wedding planning company, Posh Social. We strongly recommend you pass on The Venue on Washington and the Posh Social run by Brittney Munoz.
We got married here November 5th, 2021, and let me tell you we were sold at first. It seemed like Brittney really knew and understood our vision! We bounced ideas back and forth fo...
r almost 9 months before wedding day. And finally I felt everything was coming together but unfortunately things didn’t go as planned.
Wedding day came around and I started to really notice Brittney was getting more and more short, things were not going the way we had anticipated during the reception.
We were promised use of on site furniture, and decor, use of a beautiful rustic bar, (that never got put out even after cancelling my second rented bar with the bartenders) , and tons of candles. Which most were never done or put out. We also had a huge confusing mix up with tables, that were originally supposed to be farmhouse tables and when we got to the venue and noticed they were cheap plastic foldable tables. After the ceremony, the dinning area was still never set or decorated so that put us even further behind. Unfortunately we cannot recommend this place.
Not to mention when we requested a refund it took well over 8 weeks, 800 emails, and 300 text message. And we only received it after threatening to talk to the attorney generals. It’s now January 21st and we finally have received compensation.
All in all, we are happily married, and the Trego the DJ and the photographer really stepped up their game and made a huge difference in the experience that night. The vibe was wonderful. But if you pay for something, especially in advance, you should get it with no issue.
It’s just a really unfortunate feeling to get put on the back burner because the wedding planner is busier with the next days bigger wedding.
So I say… HARD PASS on anything that has to do with The Venue on Washington or Posh Social run by Brittney Munoz.
Really hard to get a hold of anyone by phone, email or the app. Tried calling and the voicemail is full. What’s a girl gotta do to get in touch with someone?
We got married at The Venue on Washington in February 2020. We had both our ceremony & reception there. Brittney was extremely organized, helpful & professional throughout our enti...
re planning process. She is honest & very knowledgeable about what works in the space. She also was willing to work with us & the vendors we wanted to make sure that we were able to stay within our budget. She went above and beyond her role to make sure that our day turned out how we had envisioned it. She was available to answer any questions we had throughout the entire process. Her calming presence made us feel at ease throughout our entire wedding day. Our guests continually comment on how beautiful our wedding was & we always give credit to Brittney. My husband and I continually say, we could not have done our wedding without Brittney & are so grateful to now call her a friend.
Ultimately, planning a wedding can be stressful. However, Brittney and her team made sure to not add any additional stress & in turn took a lot of the stress off of us during the planning process.
I would highly recommend Brittney & her team at Venue on Washington to anyone who is looking for an affordable, minimalist, industrial event space.
Brittney is absolutely amazing and made everything go so smoothly! I absolutely loved this venue, was a perfect mix of indoor and outdoor space. They have a dark gray brick wall th...
at can easily be spiced up to your liking, or used as is for an industrial look. They have amazing vendor relationships and recommendations. If I had to do it all over again (which I hope I dont lol) l, I would choose here every time!
Let me tell you, Brittney is sooo worth having as a event planner! She really made planning my dream wedding into a reality! She really understood my taste and style which was a ma...
jor plus! She didn't try to change my style or anything she really understood and listened to me! On my wedding day things turned out even better in person than I could of hoped for! I'm talking about my guest could not stop talking about how amazing my wedding was and how beautiful everything was! Brittney surely had the best contacts with vendors. She really went out of her ways to get me the best prices possible for all vendors! I'm talking about she negotiated deals for me and went out of her ways! She was always there for me when I needed her! She was always on time, professional, full of energy and was so great with communication. Every time I had a concern or need she was always there getting me answers right away. She never takes longer than a minute to reach back to you! Shes the best with communication! I never felt like I was bothering her! I truly felt like Brittney loves what she does and it shows! Brittney did not only become my wedding planner but she became a friend! It was like having your best friend plan your wedding for you! Thank you Brittney for EVERYTHING! I will hire Brittney AGAIN AND AGAIN for all my events! You just can't go wrong with hiring Brittney! !!
