About this vendor
Tresca on 8th opened in January 2010; since then we have had the honor of hosting over 300 weddings and events. We are located in a restored warehouse that was built in the 1800's, meaning that everything you see - the grand staircase, pine floors, and the 20 foot ceilings - are all original to the building. Our street level, handicap accessible venue is a blank slate, offering countless seating options and layouts to accommodate large parties of up to 300, but still intimate enough for 50. We are open all year long, so weather is NEVER an issue here! Your wedding guests will love this downtown venue as there are 3 hotels and over 15 restaurants all in walking distance from Tresca. Also, the riverfront makes for beautiful photo backdrops. We can't wait to begin planning your big day!

Highly recommend for any special event. Working with Robin and her staff was fantastic. We had our wedding at Tresca on 8th and it was the most wonderful and amazing day. Every detail was perfectly planned and executed. We received so many compliments about the venue and were told over and over that the entire event was flawless. I was nervous about having to plan a wedding when I had a very busy life schedule, but with Robin’s guidance and help, it seemed effortless. I cannot be more thankful for that. Robin has wonderful vendors already screened to select from and each of them were amazing to work with as well. All around- a fantastic experience from beginning to end.
I booked Tresca for my wedding in Oct 2021 and it was PERFECT!! The space is gorgeous and Robin (the director) is wonderful to work with. She and her staff ensured my big day was flawless – they have everything you need to create a beautiful, meaningful event! My guests had a wonderful time and because Robin and her team are so on top of everything, I was able to relax and have the best day of my life. Tresca is an exceptional event space!! You won’t regret booking it!
You will not regret choosing Tresca on 8th for your wedding venue! My husband and I just got married there and had the best experience. Robin is absolutely wonderful to work with, and she really helps your wedding dreams to come true! She runs a tight ship which is NEEDED when it comes to the execution of your day! This venue is so beautiful with both the upstairs and the downstairs. The staff and team here are just amazing. 10/10 would recommend getting married here!!!!
We couldn't be happier with our experience at Tresca on 8th. Robin was so helpful in helping us prepare. The venue is beautiful and the staff members were excellent. They truly care about their brides and want the experience to be fabulous. You can tell when someone loves their job! I highly recommend Tresca!
My daughter and new son-in-law had their cocktail hour and reception at Tresca on 12/28/19. Tresca is beautiful and offered everything we wanted - dressing rooms, cocktail space and a huge place to dance! We only had four months to plan and Robin and her team were flawless. My diaghter was planning from NYC and so a lot of our planning meetings were by facetime! Every detail, which we had many, was executed perfectly. Robin was so awesome and the vendors that are part of her team made our event perfect! Robin set out various linens and table setting so we could pick exactly what we wanted. She kept our event moving which made things run so smoothly. Several of our guests from out of town commented on how her staff greeted them when they arrived and thanked them for coming when they left! True professionals!
We loved having the dressing rooms all day on Saturday and being able to come in the day before (there wasnt a friday event booked) was a nice perk!
Madelines wedding was everything she dreamed. I would not change a thing about my daughter’s wedding!
My husband and I had the absolute best experience at Tresca. The venue is beautiful and you can make it what you want and add your own personal touch on the decor, which is fun. One of the big reasons we had such a great experience at Tresca, though, was because of the staff and service. Robin helped us with our planning and was super helpful throughout the whole process, providing invaluable tips and advice for everything including all the little details, and she and her staff were especially helpful the day of the wedding keeping everything running smoothly and according to schedule. We could not have done it without them and are so thankful for their help through the whole process! We have the best memories of our wedding day and we know a lot of that is due to all the behind the scenes work from all the Tresca ladies.
Tresca was the perfect venue for our reception. The.building is beautiful- a cool mix of rustic and traditional- PERFECTION! We loved working with Robin and Bethany to create our perfect day. They kept things on track and were so great to work with. They were a huge help assisting us in finding our other vendors, as we were from out of town, and they brought only but the best. They are well known in the area and work with great vendors that put on an incredible reception for you. They made it so easy for us! We can't thank Robin, Bethany and the whole Tresca team for a perfect reception for our special day!!
We were over the moon pleased with this venue! We planned our wedding in one month and Robin was so incredibly kind and helpful with connecting us with amazing caterers (Avenue Catering) , a delightful bartender, and incredible lighting company! Everything was first class all the way!!! What an amazing experience we had, our guests are still talking about how elegant everything. AMAZING!!!
The venue is just gorgeous! I love the classy feel it gives. Also they are really good at organization and giving you exactly what you want. Most of my guest will be traveling here so there is also a hotel that is walking distance to the venue.
The Tresca on 8th is a fantastic place to have a wedding. Robin and Tara are so helpful with the wedding planning and made sure that everything was taken care of the day of the wedding. The day went so smoothly and it was so relaxing to know they were handling the little details.
Tara and Robin are so sweet and helpful! They were incredible to work with. So easy, so amazing, and so nice. GREAT experience!
My reception was held at Tresca on 8th and they were absolutely amazing to worth with. The day of my wedding was absolute perfection. The ladies that work at Tresca never missed a beat, making sure our schedule was following and everything was in place. The venue itself was absolutely gorgeous. I have had so many compliments after the wedding, expressing how beautiful the downtown building looking the day of our wedding.
Tara was fantastic, worked with me through all of the details including centerpieces and entrance ideas. I loved my wedding! The dance floor was open, the table settings were amazing, it could not have gone better. I loved having a director for the ceremony and reception. Tara even fluffed my dress before walking down the stairs. I highly recommend this venue.
The charming setting and rustic appeal of this warehouse-turned-ballroom was a great setting for our country wedding. The on-site coordination staff made this location worth the money and I was able to enjoy the reception without having to worry about all the details.
