Olde Wicks was the most amazing wedding venue we could have possibly imagined. From getting ready to our reception, we were able to have our whole wedding day at one location in three different halls. There was no stress over flipping any rooms, and our guests were never crammed into any room. The venue was so beautiful for our winter wedding, we have had so many compliments. Every hall is unique, but still cohesive. It is a very flexible space- you could choose to do minimal decor or really lean into your own personal style and the halls would look beautiful either way. Our pictures are absolutely stunning and I cannot imagine a more beautiful venue to suit our vision. Additionally, Jennifer and Shannon were amazing to work with. We visited the venue a couple of times- they were always very accommodating, answered all of our questions, and even helped point us in the direction of some of our other vendors. They completely simplified the process and made planning and the day-of as stress free as possible. We were truly able to be in the moment and enjoy our day, while Jennifer and Shannon took care of everything behind the scenes.

I really can’t say enough about Jeff, Amy, Ashley, and the rest of team at Gateway Center. They did their absolute best to make our wedding spectacular. Did we have hiccups during the process? Sure. But nothing that would make me hesitate recommending them. They customize pretty much everything so that you have things exactly as you want them and take care of everything on your day so that you don’t have to worry about a thing. And they’re so flexible. I had some family who were throwing them curve balls at the last minute and they took everything in stride. I can’t tell you how much I appreciated that.

Being an LGBT+ couple, it was important to us to find a reception venue where we felt comfortable. John was amazing to work with and incredibly inclusive.

Awarded Best of Zola
The fact that people don’t know about this place blows me away. There is nowhere else to go where the owners will bring your nephew cool cars. Allow your guests to leave their vehicles on the parking lot for safety if need be, the communication, the ideas. If you are about to make an interesting wedding decision Philip will absolutely help guide you in the right direction. I know there are weddings there every weekend but the owners absolutely make you feel like your event is the only one that matters. Thank you Philip for helping our dreams to come true, and thanks for suggesting a Friday night wedding! Everyone thanked us for it!
