Reviews for Wedding Reception venues in Manchester, UK

Jennifer E.

We used Erich's space to get ready before my wedding. He was so accommodating and even offered a steamer and his own photo gear to our photographer. He was very easy to communicate with and got back to me almost immediately. Plus the space is absolutely gorgeous.

Angela P.

Hey, Matt! Thanks for the awesome review! It was a pleasure working with you and Gwen. Excellent team to work with. Both of you are super friendly, fun to work with, and easy to talk to! I want to personally thank you for helping with all the troubleshooting such as helping our photographer with lighting and helping us create an atmosphere by providing amazing music. I am so grateful for your kind demeanor by helping my team move our product into your studio spaces. Thank you for showing us step-by-step how everything works from the buzz code to the elevator and even how to utilize the space! All of your small and big actions was so valuable and helped to make our production a success! Thank you so much! I look forward to working with you on future projects!

Lynnfield M.

Brent's house is beautiful, tastefully decorated, and conviently located in Point Grey with ample neighbourhood parking. It worked perfectly for my company's weeklong offsite.

Heather D.

Fabulous space - great location, great natural light (and light control for photography). Sam was very friendly and prompt with communication.

Paramdeep N.

The venue was cute and just the right size for our event. Communication was a little iffy when trying to make initial contact but eventually we were directed to get in touch with the gallery assistant who was very helpful with the key exchange. There were speakers, mini fridges and tables for our use at the venue. The bathroom is accessible but it is not modern or updated. Also, the garbage bins could not be found in the back alley. The location in East Hastings was a little sketch but we kept the front door locked and stayed in groups at the end of the night while waiting for cabs. As a result, we didn't run into any trouble. Overall, an amazing backdrop for our end of the year celebration (UBC Players Club).

Mihailo S.

Killer space. Wonderful hospitality. No fuss no muss. Highly recommend!!

Boyd was quick to respond to messages on thisopenspace, as well as by phone. They were flexible with our reservation timing, and the space worked great. There's no elevator, and limited parking may be an issue, but the space was clean and open and perfect for a variety of events!
