We decided to have our fall wedding at the Wurlitzer building. We needed a venue that had ceremony space and an all inclusive reception area. The patio was perfect and the ballroom was spaced out to fit our smaller wedding. Working with Ali made the wedding planning process easy. There was open communication. Any questions we had were answered promptly and thoroughly. She worked with any requests we made as far as allowing different food options for allergies and letting me bring in fun ideas to jazz up the reception. She was very organized between the few times we met with her, multiple emails, and day of the wedding every detail was correct. Theresa assisted the day of the wedding and did an incredible job! The guests said the food was fantastic. Bartenders were great with no lines for the bar. Ambiance of the entire venue was perfect. We were able to drop off decor a few days before the wedding and picked up a few days after the wedding which was immensely helpful. Would highly recommend the Wurlitzer for any sized wedding!

I am ELATED by how excellent our experience was here! The team was calm and capable making us feel well taken care of. They set up and broke down all of our decor (including hanging disco balls from the ceiling) and did a fantastic job with it. The food was also some of the best food we’ve ever had at a wedding and all of our guests raved about it. I have recommended this venue to everyone who has asked! It was truly awesome. If you’re looking for a sign- this is it!! Book with the Wurlitzer and you won’t be disappointed.

with all my ideas, the food was served so quickly to our 200 guests and it was excellent, and then throughout the night they followed our busy timeline to a T with putting out desserts and late night food.

I have nothing but good things to say about the Wurlitzer as the building is beautiful, the food was absolutely delicious, the downstairs bridal suite was super convenient, and the staff were super friendly and helpful. They were also flexible with the dietary issues of my guests. I would highly recommend the Wurlitzer.

erything was perfect for our budget, we were sold. Don was very responsive to any questions we had throughout the whole planning process. We had our ceremony in the recital room and our reception in the tower room. Both were absolutely gorgeous and made my wedding vision come to life! We got so many compliments on how the food was the best wedding food our guests have ever had. We had such a wonderful selection for our buffet, apps were delicious and the dessert spread was spectacular. The bar service was wonderful and everyone enjoyed themselves. The only reason i’m not giving a 5 star review is because our favors weren’t set out as requested and we needed to get them to everyone during dinner, but other than that everything was absolutely perfect!

Look no further than the Wurlitzer for your wedding! They were the best vendor I worked with for the wedding - so responsive and accommodating, they made planning a wedding SO easy...
. I had quite a few vendors, lots of decor and special elements, and Wurlitzer said yes to everything. They were able to set up everything I brought in with no issues. The cost and packages are also incredibly affordable - definitely the best bang for your buck. The food was DELICIOUS - guests were raving about it when we went table to table after dinner. Our appetizers were amazing too! Most of the credit for my amazing experience with the Wurlitzer goes to Ali. She was INCREDIBLE to work with and did everything with a smile on her face! She is incredibly knowledgeable and had great ideas and answered all of my many questions. She has an incredibly calm and can-do attitude; nothing was out of the question and we were able to make my perfect wedding vision come to life! It would not have been a success without her! Thank you, Ali!

staurant was charming, and the staff were wonderful! Our daughters wedding was caught in the Covid mess, and they helped us to replan it and have a priceless family gathering that couldn’t have been any better! Highly recommend this and any of the other Wurlitzer Event locations!

Absolutely our pleasure! Thank you for the kind words of appreciation, they go a long way!...
It was a beautiful night, regardless of COVID! I'm not sure I would have changed a thing! And a huge thanks to your family for the incredible décor! You really transformed the dining room into a masterpiece.

ned all due to The Wurlitzer! Ali was wonderful to work with. She responded quickly and thoroughly to all of my emails, and she was extremely accommodating. The staff who worked the event were friendly and helpful. The space was absolutely beautiful. Our guests complimented the space and how delicious the food was. We were able to add on nice touches like use of the courtyard patio, as well as champagne upon arrival in the courtyard. The event was truly a dream! I highly recommend this venue.

The Wurlitzer was a beautiful setting for our November reception. The food was amazing, the space clean and well kept, and the staff beyond professional. Don and his team made our ...
day perfect. We had attended a wedding here prior to booking our own, and knew as soon as we got engaged that this was the venue for us. We loved the patio just outside the space with string lights and a fire pit - which proved to be a popular spot for some of our guests even during the chilly November evening. Our guests raved about the food and our final guest list of 250 fit perfectly in the room - even with a full band, remembrance table, and more ( I was very concerned about feeling cramped, but the space was just right with a perfectly sized dance floor). A system glitch did cause us to have to change our date early on, but it was caught close enough to signing our contract that it didn't cause issues with other vendors. Also, not all of the details we provided the team to set up were put out (small detailed items), but we were the only ones who knew that it didn't happen, so it wasn't something that affected our guests' experience, which is what it's ultimately about! This venue also had a special family tie for us - as a great-uncle used to work at the building in it's first life as a piano factory. This venue is the perfect combination of old world industrial meets modern design. It could stand on it's own without much additional decor, but could also be a blank slate for any theme. Love it and can't wait to attend more events here as guests!
