Overall - beautiful space for a wedding, the bar staff is top notch, the food and drink are delicious, we loved getting married there and felt the space itself was great. Especially great as a bride who didn’t want to do a lot of additional decorating beyond adding flowers and candles around the room.
However, the event team left a lot to be desired (as of our wedding in March 2023). I’m a former event planner and I felt that without my knowledge of the industry, it would have been a lot harder to get the wedding organized. We caught big discrepancies in pricing and packages, we had to ask a lot of questions to get information about options, etc for the planning process - it just felt like extra work.
Day-of coordination was not great. I had an 8 month pregnant MOH who had to walk to multiple locations to find her belongings, which had been moved without our knowledge; the elevator was broken and we had guests with disabilities; it was the provided Yards coordinator first ever event and she made some really not helpful comments about the wedding and me.
At the end of the day, nothing that happened was a disaster, we had an awesome wedding with our friends and family, and I cannot say enough good things about the bar and wait staff, who really went above and beyond for us and our guests (amazingly quick service for a thirsty group, super fun and funny and kind, the timing of getting the bar open and food out was great), and it was so easy for out-of-town folks to get to. But day-of, I didn’t find the support to be what I would have wanted or expected.
Rehearsal dinner was amazing! Nice way to have some space while also still being in the brewery. Didn’t cost an arm and a leg, and the food was great. Everyone had an amazing time mingling before the big day!
