    I hosted a botanical workshop, *Winter SUCC’s,* at **The Century**, and I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect venue! From start to finish, the team was incredibly accommodating and professional, ensuring every detail was handled seamlessly. The space itself is stunning—spacious, well-lit, and full of character. It provided the perfect backdrop for our workshop, where participants created unique succulent gardens in a warm and inviting environment. The versatility of the venue allowed us to set up comfortably and still have room for guests to mingle and enjoy themselves. If you’re looking for a venue that combines charm, functionality, and exceptional service, The Century is the place to go. Whether it’s for a wedding, special event, or creative workshop like ours, this venue will exceed your expectations. Thank you, The Century, for making our event so memorable!

    The Century was the perfect place to host our office holiday party. There was plenty of space for everyone to mingle as well as having a few activities set up. The staff was beyond great to work with and provided us with an exceptional experience. I would highly recommend this venue for any type of event.

    I recently co-hosted a political gathering at The Century, and I can’t say enough good things about this venue and its team! From the very start, they were incredibly generous with their time, offering clear and consistent messaging throughout the entire planning process. Their professionalism and attention to detail made everything seamless (and exciting!) On the day of the event, Arleigh and Katie were on-site and went above and beyond to make everyone involved feel seen and supported. Not only were they helpful, but their warmth and friendliness made all of our guests feel safe and welcomed—a truly invaluable quality for any *successful* event. The space itself was absolutely perfect for our needs. We were able to divide the space into two rooms to allow for mingling on one side while hosting a panel on the other, creating a dynamic yet organized flow. As a vendor, I especially appreciated how easy it was to unload and load equipment/food, and decor—no hassle at all! Plus, the venue offers ample parking, which was a huge convenience for our guests. I look forward to being back at The Century as a guest and as a vendor. It’s a fantastic space with an amazing team that truly cares about your experience. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

    Our experience with The Century for our September 2024 wedding was nothing short of extraordinary. This venue is truly a blank canvas, perfect for bringing any vision to life. We chose a vibrant, colorful theme, and it was magical to see how the colors came alive against the crisp white walls, with the lighting adding a stunning dimension to the spacious room. Erin and Arleigh, our incredible house coordinators, were invaluable throughout the planning process. Their attentiveness, professionalism, and personal touch ensured every detail of our wedding was flawless. They truly went above and beyond to make our wedding dreams a reality, and we cannot thank them enough for making the day feel so uniquely ours. If we could relive this day a hundred times over, we absolutely would. We will cherish our time with The Century, for giving us memories to treasure forever!
