My husband and I hosted a wedding celebration for ourselves at this venue. Sophie allowed us to tour the venue beforehand and answered all our questions prior to the event. The atmosphere was perfect. We barely needed to bring any decor (we were traveling from another state for this event) so this was ideal! There is a parking structure right next to the venue and we were able to unload our belongings easily, our catering team was able to meet us directly outside the venue which made everything easy to set up. The venue has indoor and outdoor speakers that worked great. We used the projector on the wall to play our wedding video. Sophie had enough tables and chairs for our 110 people event but if we did need more she had those available as well. It has 3 men's and 3 women's restrooms that were clean and stocked. Our guests loved the venue! The outdoor patio area had string lights and heat lamps. We did bring our own propane tanks. It was a GREAT night, my only regret is not booking for another hour or 2 longer!

As someone who was booking this space while I was out of town, Sophie was really great to work with and incredibly helpful with sharing additional photos etc. The space lived up to all my expectations and set a great tone for our event!

This space is awesome. Everyone in my party was surprised at how cool it was and kept asking "Where did you find this place" I used the kitchen extensively and it had everything you could ever need. Graham and Dominick were very nice and informative and made sure everything was set up exactly the way I wanted it. They even arranged a pre-event walk through the day before which was necessary. The location was perfect right in the heart of Santa Monica and easy to get too. The rooftop had a great view. Couldn't have asked for a better experience and I will definitely be back again! Special shoutout to the host brandon and hired help Jay who made the event smooth and easy!
