I really wanted to give 5 stars, as everything turned out beautiful and amazing. The bar was great, the glass demonstration was incredible, and everybody made comments about how beautiful it was. The staff was very helpful the day of.
However, the communication with the venue was a bit difficult at times. TDGF is very busy right now (as it should be, it's a great event space) but they have third fridays, weddings, conventions, events, etc, some kind of event nearly every weekend. As a result, it was often really hard to get answers when needed and sometimes it would take nearly a week to get an email back with a much needed answer. We got all our questions answered and everything was fine, but I often needed answers from TDGF to give to other vendors, and getting those was difficult and slow. There was a staffing change right at the start of our wedding planning, which ultimately might be the reason.
In addition, we had no idea how to have a rehearsal either, and the venue wasn't very helpful. They just stood there and watched. Thankfully my cousin knew exactly what to do, but we pretty much did the entire rehearsal without much help or direction from the venue.
We used the conference room as a place to store things and as a homebase for the evening for the bridal party (which we were told we could) and upon walking in there was broken glass shards on the floor. My bridesmaid told the venue and they didn't do anything about it. It was never picked up, and we were told it wasn't a big deal as it was just a storage room. We had kids in the room, and it was still never picked up or dealt with by anybody but us.
I loved the venue and have zero regrets about choosing the place. Everything on the wedding day was amazing and beautiful. I do think it's a great place to have a wedding. I just think they might be a bit swamped right now with events and a lack of staff, and it definitely was obvious to those close to the planning.
We used TDG for our wedding reception, including a glass demonstration, in early 11/2024. We had an excellent experience planning with Rosemary and Brooke. The event went off without a hitch, and everyone had a memorable night! The ambience was wonderful. I would definitely recommend.
Absolutely cannot say enough great thing about TDGF. The moment we walked into the venue, my partner and I agreed it was the only place we wanted to host our event. The team was excellent and patient with us. Very easy to work with and super responsive to our needs. They made the entire process so much easier! If you are having any kind of event, TDGF is *your* place to host! You won't be disappointed.
Third Degree was the first wedding venue my husband and I toured. We told ourselves to avoid the classic "pick the first one you see" trap, but, well, that didn't go so well for us (to be fair, we did tour a few other spots but nothing held a candle to TDG). The space is absolutely gorgeous with so much going on in all corners. Our guests loved the glassblowing demonstration and perusing the store, and more than a few commented on just how unique of a wedding experience they had. Also, the team was so responsive and easy to work with. They were able to accommodate all of our needs and made sure everything ran smoothly on the actual day. I truly cannot emphasize enough just how wonderful our experience was, and I would absolutely recommend anyone in the St. Louis area give themselves the chance to fall in love with TDG!!
Our wedding was absolutely beautiful thanks to Third Degree! Brooke was very responsive and helped with all the big and small questions and made sure that we were on track with planning. Their staff was so helpful with any questions we had during the day and so easy to work with!
I cannot say enough great things about Third Degree. Our wedding reception was better than I ever could have imagined! We received so many compliments on the venue from our guests! Everyone thought it was beautiful and that the staff were amazing. Brooke and Allison were incredibly helpful with the planning process. The were great at communicating, eased our anxieties, and truly made our day flawless. I cannot thank everyone at Third Degree enough!!
The second we walked into Third Degree Glass we instantly fell in love with the beauty and uniqueness of the space, and immediately knew we found the venue for our wedding day! But its not just the Venue that made our experience so wonderful, it the entire team at Third Degree, from the beginning they made us feel welcomed and helped us create the perfect wedding day. Brooke was so incredible and detailed when it came to translating what we wanted to actual reality and she was there for us every step of the way for any questions we had large or small. Our wedding day needless to say went off so spectacularly perfect that we received compliments all night from our guests and are still getting compliments a week later about how beautiful and unique our ceremony and reception was! From the amazing planning team and staff, the beautiful venue itself, the unique glass blowing demonstration during our cocktail hour, and the amazing bar team, we can 100% say we had a wedding day that our family and friends will talk about for a very long time and one that we will never forget!! We couldn’t of imagined a better start to our lives together and can’t thank the Third Degree Team enough!
Third Degree Glass Factory was a beautiful venue and a space that my husband and I would 100% recommend for a wedding reception! When we first began looking at venues in the St. Louis area, our goal was to find a beautiful space that offered a memorable experience for our guests within our budget and TDGF fit our needs perfectly. TDGF was responsive and upfront in the quoting process and gave us a clear idea on what our reception would look like. We began working with Jessica when we first signed our contract and Brooke joined the team about five months before our event. Both Jessica and Brooke worked well within their communications portal and were able to provide thoughtful insights to the needs of our wedding reception. One thing to consider, TDGF was still going through a few updates between when we first set our reception date and when our reception was held. This included some wonderful surprises including beautiful high-top tables that matched the bar and new overhead spotlights that allowed for our band to be ‘featured’ a bit more. They also had a couple of items in our contract that were subject to availability such as colored glass centerpieces (which are no longer available), and specific artist's capabilities for glass pieces. These changes did not materially impact our evening, but if you want to adhere to a strict vision, be sure to make TDGF aware of your requests. They are continuing to build out their event experience and we expect that the space will get even better! The space itself is open, with beautiful exposed brick, glass pieces arranged on walls and hung from the ceiling, and a full on ‘hot shop’ which married an industrial environment with a beautiful canvas upon which we could compose our reception. Our evening included a cocktail hour, unity ceremony, seated dinner, and a live band for 140 guests and the space worked exceptionally well. The large banquet hall had plenty of space, but never felt cavernous for a plated dinner and large dance floor. The glass gallery made for a wonderful setting to have our unity ceremony and cocktail hour—getting to see seasonal art pieces was super unique. The outdoor space was lovely and provided guests with a great place to grab a bit of fresh air and a quiet space over the course of the evening. We had guests coming up to us asking ‘how did you find this place?!’ and ‘I didn’t know something this cool existed!’ The space is open enough to add your own design touch, but is complete enough that you don’t need to do much to make the space feel special. A highlight of the space is the optional live glass demonstration. We had guests coming up to us throughout the evening telling us how special it was to witness a piece of art being created. It complemented our cocktail hour after our unity ceremony. The way Allison runs the bar program at TDGF is also exceptional. We had two signature cocktails as well as a full bar—the cocktails were well mixed and folks hardly had to wait to get a drink. Their quality and variety of spirits rival standalone bars. TDGF feels like they have invested in an excellent bar program and it shows! We had a seamless experience working with our vendors and the run of show was well put together and easy to follow. The evening of our reception went off without a hitch and Brooke was incredibly responsive through the process. TDGF is evolving for the better and making strides to be the premier event space of St. Louis. Book them now while you still can!
The Third Degree Glass Factory (TDGF) was the perfect location for our daughter's wedding. We loved the ambience and flow of the space. Jessica, Brooke and Allison were very professional and easy to work with. We appreciated their creativity and flexibility during the entire planning process. They were on top of everything during the event. The TDGF staff was professional and service-oriented. I would highly recommend this venue for weddings and other events.
The Third Degree Glass Factory (TDGF) venue and team are truly a wedding planner/coordinator’s dream to work at and with! The venue itself has the most beautiful, fun, creative vibe. The team - especially Jessica, Brooke, and Alison are incredibly responsive, team-oriented, and professional. I have coordinated 4 weddings there now, and cannot wait for our next time together!
When we sought out a wedding venue we knew we wanted someplace that came with its own beauty so an art studio was a natural choice. The gorgeous glass gallery makes an amazing space for the cocktail hour and every space is decorated with beautiful art. The glassblowing demonstration was super memorable for our guests, too.
Working with the team was overall a good experience. There were times we had some confusion in communication with people changing roles but the team at Third Degree never dropped the ball and they made sure we were taken care of. They worked smoothly with our wedding coordinators and really helped get all the little details in place. They have done many weddings and know what they're doing but don't force a certain flow or format on you - you can do whatever you want but they also were happy to use their experience when we said "uhhh, whatever usually works!" The pricing is reasonable for what's included. I liked that we could do linens, centerpieces, table numbers, and beverages all through the venue and trust their staff to take care of those for us.
Our guests still talk about how cool the venue was and I totally agree! We also have a beautiful piece of glass art to commemorate the occasion.
TDGF is a beautiful, airy space that is able to transform into nearly anything. It was the perfect setting for our cocktail hour and reception. Huge pluses were a glass-blowing demonstration, which guests loved, and expert bartenders! It was also very easy working with the staff leading up to the wedding.
If you’re looking for an affordable, but gorgeous venue in the St. Louis area, look no further! The space itself is beautiful with exposed brick, polished concrete floors and custom artwork and is extremely versatile. You can keep it simple or glam it up as much as you want. (We kept it simple and it was still a fairytale).
We had a wonderful experience with Jessica and her staff! They helped walk us through the experience from start to finish, providing insight and expertise on design, floor plans, vendors, bar packages, etc. With their help, we were able to have the wedding day of our dreams without breaking the bank.
Couldn’t have asked for a better day/experience. Overall would 10/10 recommend Third Degree for a top wedding venue in STL.
TDGF gave us our dream wedding. Alison helped us create a perfect timeline that let us get everything done while including time to savor the day. She and the entire venue staff were rockstars on the day of. And as for the venue itself, it is WORTH IT. Our guests were amazed & entertained the whole evening. The glass demo experience was a highlight, and our unity piece looks amazing.
Third Degree was suggested to us by a friend who also considered it as her wedding venue. When I walked in, I could instantly tell we would get married here. The space is so beautiful that it requires little to no decoration to get the vibe and atmosphere of a beautiful wedding. The cherry on top of the cake for us was the ability to bring any outside caterer you wanted, whereas other venues required you use a specific vendor for food. The front office staff, bar staff, and everyone else were very supportive and helpful throughout the whole planning process. Third Degree will always hold a special place in our hearts and we whole heartedly recommend this venue for a perfect wedding!
We found Third Degree through Google when searching for our wedding venue. We went to a few other venues the day we checked out Third Degree but when we walked in, Katie (the bride!) knew right away that this was the venue for our wedding. Our first visit there with Olivia was great - she told us everything we needed to know and more, showed us around, and gave us a great vibe right away. We booked within the week (they were very quick to communicate which I appreciated).
The communication throughout was wonderful and we never felt like we were ever being strung along. We found a few of our vendors through their preferred vendors as well.
Day of literally could not have gone better. We had such a wonderful experience. We used the gallery room for our ceremony and it was so beautiful using all of the art as the backdrop for our wedding. Then the event space was done perfectly (so much room!). The bar was beautiful, the bartenders were great and fun, and the custom mixed drinks they allowed us to create ended up being delicious.
All in all, working with Third Degree was 10/10 and I will recommend them to anyone as a venue (we also have a few glass pieces bought from there now and they are gorgeous - go support local artists!)
I had my wedding at Third Degree back in September, and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a unique, professional, GORGEOUS wedding venue! Alison B was very thorough and supportive throughout the entire process, she made planning as smooth and stress-free as possible. I cannot thank her, and the rest of the staff at Third Degree, enough for all of their hard work in making my dream wedding come true.
We had our reception here in 2022 after rescheduling from 2020. We loved the gallery from the beginning and wanted something unique. It was perfect and we received an endless amount of compliments on how beautiful our evening was and I think much of that was due to the location. We worked with a few planners over the years, but ultimately ended up coordinating with Ali and she was super easy to work with and very responsive to all of our questions and emails.
We had our wedding ceremony and reception at Third Degree Glass Factory. The staff were all very responsive and friendly. The venue itself is so gorgeous, and our guests loved seeing all the glass. The bar is well stocked, and there was never a long line for our guests to get drinks. I highly recommend getting married here! We had an amazing night thanks to all of the hard work of the staff at Third Degree.
Third Degree was the best choice for a venue!! It was beautiful and so many of our guests complimented how much they enjoyed the unique space and glass demonstration. Our guests also loved the bartenders, who went above in helping us come up with the perfect recipe for our cocktails. Alison was a dream to work with, always answering all of our questions and getting back to us immediately on everything. I can't stress enough how easy she made the planning process. The day went beyond our expectations and would 100% recommend if you're looking for a beautiful, unique artsy venue.
Third Degree was the perfect choice for our wedding from the moment we chose them til the very end of our event! Alison was extremely helpful throughout the entire process. She communicated in a very timely manner and was able to answer all of our questions as well as providing us with suggestions whenever we asked for them. On the day of our wedding, the entire Third Degree staff was so friendly and wonderful. Our guests loved the artsy venue, the glass blowing demonstration between the ceremony and reception, and the yard games that we provided during the reception. I cannot recommend Third Degree enough! Thank you!!!
We wanted a unique venue and Third Degree certainly is! The glassblowing during cocktail hour was a huge hit. Everyone was super patient with us, even with the millions of questions I would send constantly.
When the pandemic hit initially they did not hesitate to let us postpone. They have always made us feel comfortable, knowing that the day would go well.
On the day itself they were super helpful and did everything that they said they would. I highly recommend this venue, not only because it looks amazing (which means you don't really need to do your own decor!!!), but mostly because the people are all very kind and helpful.
We initially chose TDGF as our wedding venue because of all the beautiful colors and the cool art pieces. In the end, that wasn't even the best part! The event coordinator Alison was kind, enthusiastic, and organized as we planned the event. She was responsive to emails, gave us great suggestions, and was flexible when we asked for last minute seating assignment changes. She was truly essential in making our wedding such a success. We are grateful for all her hard work and would recommend this venue to others for important events!
Cannot speak highly enough about Third Degree. We hosted our wedding reception there and it was perfect. They staff was so great with helping us plan and run the wedding reception.
The event services manager, Alison, was the best and helped us every step of the way. Everything turned out perfectly and I am so grateful to Third Degree for helping make it all possible.
Third Degree was our first and ONLY choice for a wedding and reception venue!! As soon as we saw it, we immediately knew this was it. Our wedding was in Jan. 2022 and it was an absolute dream. Olivia and her team were wonderful to work and did everything to make our vision come to light. Our guests were very impressed with the venue space. We would recommend anyone to consider Third Degree and would definitely use again for another event!
I could not have imagined a better venue for our wedding day! We felt that the staff truly cared about our wedding and event and made it so smooth for us! Olivia and the rest of the team were so fantastic to work with! Our guests loved the glass blowing demonstration! I would highly recommend third degree to any couple for their wedding day!
We had our wedding and reception at Third Degree in April and we could not have been more pleased. I did not have a wedding planner, but Olivia and the team are so knowledgeable that I did not need one. They were friendly and attentive throughout the whole process and everyone at the wedding raved about the location and the decor they put up for us.
If you are looking for a unique space with a great event staff that can help you out every step of the way, definitely check them out!
Third Degree is a dream venue! Looking back, there isn't a single place I would've preferred getting married at. The venue is gorgeous, unique, and puts a heavy emphasis on local art. If you are using tags like rustic and urban, this is definitely a place to check out. Beyond the physical space, the customer service of planning an event here is really unmatched. Olivia made me feel like she cared as much about my wedding as much as I did. She reassured me when I felt stressed, was excited for me when I felt excited, and brought many details to my attention that I never would have thought of on my own. The staff during the night of our wedding was also very attentive, friendly, and responsive to any issues that came up throughout the night. Just like all of these other reviews say, people are STILL talking about our wedding weeks later. The unity ceremony and glass blowing demonstration really is a unique way to entertain your guests during the cocktail hour, and it creates a beautiful, symbolic piece of art for you and your partner to remember the day by forever. I wouldn't be surprised if this is one of the most popular places to host a wedding at in St. Louis in the next five years. They're only going to get better!
We had planned on using a different venue for our ceremony. However due to COVID we ended up have both ceremony and reception at TDGF. I loved how unique and artistic this venue is. It’s even better now since the changes were complete. We used minimal decor because the venue didn’t need anything extra. Our guests are still talking about our wedding weeks after! They really enjoyed the glass blowing demonstration. Alison and Olivia and the rest of the staff made sure our day was perfect and stress free. The venue is truly one of a kind!
The event coordinators were amazing prior to the event and day of. The glass factory is beautiful with all the art sitting out and offers a great separate option for people who don't want to dance or want to take a break from dancing later on. Honestly, what our guests raved most about however was the live glass blowing demonstration. The two artists were amazing and our guests were wowed from start to finish. All in all, everything was perfect and we are so happy to have used Third Degree as our venue. Definitely a unique experience that made our wedding everything we could have hoped for and more.
My experience with Third Degree Glass Factory had both pros and cons. First off though, TDGF is an absolutely gorgeous and unique venue. It was exactly what I was looking for, as I didn't want the typical wedding, and my guests were raving about it for weeks after our big day. We had games and a s'mores bar going on outside, a live demonstration happening inside, and then we had glass frit to use for a union during our ceremony. That frit was turned into a beautiful glass vase to remember the day forever! They were also willing to work with us in case of bad weather for our outdoor ceremony located elsewhere (luckily the rain went around us), and they even snuck a cute ornament onto our gift table that was so thoughtful and made us smile when we were going through gifts the next day! Everyone was super nice and friendly to work with, as well. Unfortunately, we had a few things happen that diminished my overall experience. First, when we signed our contract, we were told the construction they were getting ready to start would be completed at least a month before our wedding. It wasn't over by our wedding, and that wasn't communicated to us until relatively close to our wedding date. I didn't care so much about the appearance, but it did change our floor plan and made it difficult for my older guests to get in. During the planning process, there were a few times where my wedding was confused with another bride's wedding. Not a huge deal, but made for some added stress in my life with the confusion of wrong details/pricing. There were also a few rental items and glass items where the price was shown differently in different locations, which was a bit confusing, but they did honor the original rental prices in my contract. Prior to our wedding, I checked out their audio system for playing our own playlist as I was told other weddings have used it with no problems. It seemed loud and clear, but on the day of the wedding, the music was incredibly low and hard to hear. I would suggest bringing your own equipment because that was definitely something I regret. I will say though, the sound system was great for the speeches. My biggest complaint was the fact that our reception was supposed to go until 10 PM, at which point they would start tearing down. Well they started tearing down at 9 PM instead, so a lot of people thought it was over and left. By the time I noticed what was going on, my super friendly midwestern aunts and uncles were helping the staff pack things up. A wedding already flies by quickly, and to have one of the hours I paid for seem to disappear, well that was pretty disappointing. So overall, if you're looking for a beautiful venue where your guests will experience something unique and have a blast, Third Degree Glass Factory is a great option for that. Just be aware that you may run into some snags along the way. I also don't plan on letting these few negative things that happened keep me from visiting in the future because TDGF has a lot of other things to offer the community, too.
Great event coordination and organizing! Olivia is AMAZING and the venue is lovely in the evening time!
This venue was perfect for both my ceremony and reception. I loved how beautiful, unique, and artistic this venue is. I barely had to spend money on decor because the venue is so beautiful on it's own. My guests RAVED about the glass blowing demonstration. I felt that the venue is a great size. There is a lot of space for everyone but it still feels intimate. The staff was amazing to work with and Rachel made the day so easy and the month leading up to the wedding was organized and stress-free. You will not regret booking this venue!
I could not have better words to say about the team at Third Degree. They truly made my planning easy. I started out with Rachel who gave me all the information and helped me book my date 11/1/2019. Later Tracey became my contact. She communicated well and kept me on track and informed. Ali was there the night of, she had it all together and was very helpful with my family setting up while the wedding party took photos. Each of these people were amazing. The venue itself is beautiful, I felt I hardly needed to decorate. My husband and I had a wonderful experience and all our guests were talking about how gorgeous everything was. I appreciate everyone at Third Degree for making our night perfect.
We were so thrilled with our experience having both our wedding ceremony and reception at Third Degree! Planning with Tracey was wonderful, she kept us organized and thought of every detail. Both Tracey and Ali went out of their way to make sure our evening went smoothly as well. Many of our guests commented what a beautiful and unique venue it was, and it was altogether even better than we had dreamed. Thank you Third Degree, highly recommend!
Third Degree was so helpful and easy to work with while planning my wedding. I am a very detailed person who can be slightly indecisive at times and the event planning team just rolled with it. Our guests absolutely loved our venue and cannot stop talking about our glass blowing demo we had during the cocktail hour.
The space had everything my husband and I were looking for and we are so glad we were able to have our wedding reception at Third Degree. Thanks again!
When my husband and I started the wedding venue search, we knew we wanted somewhere unique and that would give us the ability to create our own menu. Third Degree did both of this and more. Their space is absolutely beautiful- brick walls, garage doors, Edison bulb lighting, and of course the gallery full of beautiful blown glass. All of our guests even complimented the bathrooms believe it or not! We were able to cater Salt + Smoke, which is always a crowd pleaser, and bring in our own dessert bar from Whisk. We also splurged and had a glass-blowing demonstration during our cocktail hour- which gave it an extra special touch. We will soon be picking up our piece that they created for us as well! We also loved that they had an outdoor area so that we could have bonfires and leave one of the garage doors open during our reception to let in some fresh air. Tracey, our coordinator, was absolutely fantastic and was always quick to answer any questions or concerns that we might have had. She worked extraordinarily well with all of our vendors! Our bartenders also got a lot of compliments from our staff (which I feel like is not very common to hear), because they were on top of it and their was never a long line! All in all, you will not regret having your wedding reception at Third Degree. We also love that it is a place we can return to for other events. Third Degree will always hold a special place in our hearts for giving us our dream wedding reception and throwing us the part of the year!!
We are so happy that we picked Third Degree as our ceremony and reception venue! Rachel, the wedding coordinator, was extremely helpful with the wedding planning process the entire year between booking and the actual event. Our guests raved about how much they loved the glass blowing demonstration-- I highly recommend it!! The switch from ceremony to reception was smooth, with a cocktail hour in the gallery and with the demonstration. The outdoor patio was fantastic with the fire pit going, and we brought our own bean bag set and giant jenga set. Overall, our day was perfect with big thanks to Third Degree!
We did our rehearsal dinner here and this venue is spectacular. From the sights of the kiln and the factory to the wonderful courtyard this is a great spot for any type of event. The staff was great and accommodating and they were willing to take on new vendor relationships for us as well.
The place is beautiful, staff were great to work with. Very laid back, and low key. Was willing to make changes, and helped set up and clean up. Would do it again.
Third Degree was the perfect place to have our wedding reception! Our guests raved about how unique and open the space was. They loved that they could peruse the glass gallery, hit the dance floor or chill on the outisde patio. My husband and I are both graphic designers so we loved the artistic atmosphere and the ability to have glass artwork from the gallery as the table centerpieces. Tracey was awesome to work throughout the planning process. Rachel worked our reception and she was beyond amazing at attending to our guests and to the details of the night. My husband and I had perfect evening and Third Degree will continue to be a very special place to us! We can’t wait to go back for events!
My husband and I recently had our wedding at Third Degree and it was beyond amazing! Not only is the venue beautiful, the staff was amazing to work with.
We had a glass blowing demonstration while my husband and I were able to take family photos and it kept everyone entertained and everyone has had nothing but great things to say! This venue is perfect for a wedding or any other type of celebration!
Third Degree is a fantastic venue! It is spacious with a cool atmosphere, indoor outdoor space, and beautiful artwork.
As great as the space itself was, the event staff was over the top. They were easy to work with, leveraged their experience to help us find the right fit for what we were looking for, and made sure all the little details were tied up for us.
They work really well with their preferred vendors (and their list is expansive!) and made it so easy for us to accommodate some new vendors that we found outside of their list for dessert and photo-booth.
They set up multiple touch points with us leading up to the reception, ensured we were in the loop with our vendors they were managing, where we were on our custom glass piece, and the bar staff was excellent - made sure we were taken care of all night! Our event planner was managing the evening as well, and guaranteed the event ran as planned.
We highly recommend this venue - they provide both great service and a great venue!
My wife and I booked Third Degree for our wedding reception, and it was the best choice we could have made. We initially met with Rachel, who was a helpful resource. Once we signed the contract, Tracey was our main point of contact to plan every detail, both in-person and via email. From decor placement to the event itinerary to tear-down, Tracey was such a pleasure to work with. She was super organized and accommodating. The entire staff was wonderful.
The space itself is amazing - so much square footage and beautiful glass decorations for the price. The patio was an appreciated bonus. I can’t recommend the location enough! By booking Third Degree, we received more than a reception venue; we had expert support from a team throughout the entire planning process. We feel really lucky to have used Third Degree's space.
We hosted our wedding reception at the Third Degree Glass Factory. Everyone was wonderful to work with - everything was so easy to plan, and they were incredibly communicative. They coordinated with our vendors so that we didn't have to play the middleman for anything. And that was all before the reception itself! The space is so unique - we received so many compliments about the artwork, the glass blowing demonstration, even the bathrooms! It was a great event and we would definitely recommend this space for others looking for a fun place to host a reception or other event.
We knew pretty much as soon as we saw Third Degree and interacted with the event staff that we wanted to have our wedding there. Their experience with planning and hosting events is really evident. We worked with Rachel throughout our year long planning process and she was always on top of things and a great communicator. We knew that if we left something in her hands, it would definitely get done and done well! On our wedding day, we had two different managers from Third Degree who were absolutely wonderful. They were both former wedding planners and you could tell! One of the managers fashioned my husband a new boutonniere by piecing together different flowers when his original boutonniere got crushed in a hug. Who has that creativity and skill?! They made the entire day run so smoothly, which allowed us to just enjoy the party! Besides the wonderful staff, the venue is so cool and different than other spaces. We received a variety of compliments from guests about the exposed brick, the glass ceremony, the glass blowing demonstration during the cocktail hour, and of course, the cool glass faucets in the bathrooms! There is so much to love! We are very happy with our decision to have our wedding at Third Degree! It will always hold a special place in our hearts and memories.
Had our wedding here in August and we were so happy with everything. Very friendly, quick to get back to me, very professional. I was pretty clueless on how the whole process was planned, what I needed to decide on, etc and Rachel was so much help. Made it as stress free as possible. Pricing was very upfront, no surprises. And did I mention the venue is gorgeous? Would wholeheartedly recommend.
We loved working with Third Degree Glass Factory! Rachel was prompt and professional, and she made planning our big day a breeze. The night of, everyone on our guest list had a great time with the bartender, Aaron, who went out of his way to make sure our night was amazing. The glass blowing demonstration in a MUST! The artists are crazy knowledgeable and make the whole process super interesting. We are still getting compliments from our guests. All-in-all Third Degree made our night unforgettable!
The staff at Third Degree were absolutely wonderful. They made planning and staying organized easy and ensured that everything went smoothly leading up to and on the day of our wedding. The venue is beautiful and unlike anywhere else in the area. It's also affordable. I can't recommend TDGF enough and I'd do it all again in a heartbeat.
We loved this venue! We chose this venue for the location, the beautiful interior, and the flexibility of the venue. The staff at TDGF were incredibly supportive in any vision we had. We were able to have Sugar Fire cater, smore's and cornhole on the patio, more than enough space to dance, and a glass blowing demonstration for our guests! We are still receiving comments from guests that it was the coolest venue! And we agree! The staff at TDGF are also so organized and fun to work with. Our other vendors (photography, DJ, photobooth, caterer, etc.) all agreed that TDGF are wonderful to work with on their end, which helped the whole wedding go smoothly.
Our wedding reception at Third Degree could not have been any better. The staff is so easy to work with, both Rachel and Tracey had great communication throughout the whole planning process and I felt totally reassured that we were in the hands of professionals. It's a really affordable venue and getting married on a Sunday helped us save around $1,500! The bar packages can be easily altered to add whatever beer/wine/liquors you want so everyone got the drink they were looking for. The space itself is so unique and cool, there is something for everyone to enjoy. The glass artwork is beautiful to look at and we added the glass blowing demonstration that our party really enjoyed. The bartenders were so friendly and quick. The room for the actual reception is even bigger now and fit our 120 person reception beautifully. Really cannot say enough wonderful things about Third Degree and its staff. THANK YOU! We will be back!
Choosing Third Degree as our wedding and reception venue was the best decision we made when wedding planning. There are so many things that we just loved about Third Degree that it is hard to fit all of them in a review. First, Rachel was incredibly helpful along the way and helped us with the whole wedding process. She was quick to answer any questions we had and offer suggestions and tips to make the planning less overwhelming. On the day of, Tracey and the rest of the staff made sure things ran smoothly. Second, the venue is beautiful and unique. We loved that we had the option to do something totally different from other weddings we attended. We opted to do the glass pouring ceremony and then the glass blowing demo during our cocktail hour. Our guests were blown away by the demo. Not only was it such a cool way to pass the time (while the wonderful staff flipped the room for the reception), but we have a beautiful vase that we get to keep as a reminder of our special day. SO cool! Third, it is a truly memorable venue. Guests will be in awe of how beautiful it all is (right down to the bathrooms). We have had so many people who attended our wedding tell us that they have gone back to Third Degree to purchase things from the gallery or take classes. We also loved that we could buy items from the gallery for our wedding party as a memorable thank you gift. If you are looking for a stress-free, gorgeous, unique, venue, look no further!
The atmosphere of the Third Degree Glass Factory was so unique! We are constantly getting compliments about how gorgeous and cool the venue was. A lot of people said they’ve never been to a better wedding, they really loved the special glass blowing show. From the wedding planning staff (Tracey and Rachel) to the bartenders, glass blowers and etc, we were very happy with our experience. Everyone was so professional and you could tell they cared about you on your big day. They were such a fun crew to work with and our day wouldn’t have been as perfect if it were anywhere else. Thank you Third Degree!!
We chose Third Degree for our wedding ceremony and reception and could not be happier we did! We fell in love with the artsy and unique vibe of the place. Rachel was so helpful throughout the entire planning process and made it so smooth and stress-free. Everyone there made sure that we didn't have to worry about a thing. The glass blowing demonstration was AMAZING and our guests loved it. It is an added bonus that we now have a beautiful vase to keep as a memento from our special day. We received so many compliments from our guests about how cool the venue and demonstration was. Many of the guests bought things from the gallery and have expressed interest in going back for classes. We love Third Degree and can't thank them enough for hosting our big day and making sure it was perfect! You guys rock!!
We chose Third Degree Glass Factory not only because it was a super unique venue, but also because it felt like the events staff were personally vested in making our wedding special. And we didn't get that from the other venues we toured. Tracey our events coordinator was an absolute pleasure to work with and was always extremely quick to get back to my questions or make any requested changes. Which, when it comes to the hundreds of emails and to do's your juggling with wedding planning, this is huge! We had a wonderful day, start to finish and highly recommend them!
Third Degree Glass Factory was a wonderful venue choice for my daughter's October wedding! We found the staff to be incredibly helpful, and they assisted us in managing all the vendors we chose to use to make it a perfect day! Rachel, the onsite coordinator was great---thanks so much! We loved that Third Degree let us choose our own caterer, which many places simply would not allow. Our guests really enjoyed the beautiful artwork/glass on display and so many of them commented on the awesome glass blowing demonstration during cocktail hour. The venue provided the perfect space for the photo bus, and the use of a food truck. Thanks so much for helping to make it an unforgettable day!
This August, my husband and I had our reception at TDGF and I will be the first one to say it was absolutely amazing! The people are incredible to work with and were so flexible and willing to go to great lengths to help us!! The staff working the reception were all so nice and helpful. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful! It is filled with gorgeous glass blown by the local artists. It has a fun feel to the venue and even has a cute little patio available with table and chairs and cute bistro lighting. One of the things I was most thankful for was the bride's room. They had just a small room with a toilet and sink available for me to keep my belongings and also use the restroom with plenty of room to move around in my wedding dress! Also, we had so many guests comment on how absolutely amazing the glass blowing demo was during our cocktail hour. We will forever cherish the piece of glass they made for us! I cannot stop saying I wish we could do it all over again! TDGF is simply amazing!
We had our wedding ceremony and reception there on 9/2/2017 and it was just amazing! It was so unlike any other wedding me or most of our guests had seen.
We hired an event coordinator with the venue (Tracey) to handle our day of coordination (which she began well before the day). She took a huge amount of pressure off me and my family and made it so we could just enjoy being with our guests at the wedding.
Third Degree was everything my husband and I dreamed it would be! From the glass blowing ceremony to keep our guests happily entertained during cocktail hour to the amazing outdoor space used for our sparkler send off, we couldn't have been more happy! We worked with Tracey through the entire process and she is the sweetest event coordinator who was genuinely excited to help make our special day perfect.
If there was a 6th star I would give them it. Absolutely amazing venue!! My partner and I chose TDGF for the amazing art venue, no matter where you looked it was beautiful! It is not your traditional four wall banquet venue. Tracey was amazing to work with throughout the entire process. We could not find the flowers for the bouquet tosses so was about to get on a ladder in the middle of the reception to make it work for us! Every inch of TDGF is gorgeous and made our day that much more special. Our guest could not stop complimenting how amazing the venue. We did have the glass blowing demonstration in our cocktail hour, just wonderful! We did our ceremony and reception both at TDGF and it wasn't even a question that we wanted it there. They flipped the room during our cocktail hour. There was so much transformation going on in one room and we were enjoying ourselves and guest in the outdoor patio and glass room. Highly recommend TDGF if you are looking for that special place for your wedding.
