    The Oviatt was only the second venue we toured and we knew immediately it would be perfect for us…so much so that we canceled the rest of our venue tours and secured a date! Lindsey and Gabe made planning so fun and easy -- and the preferred cateror and photobooth vendor they referred us to were equally amazing to work with. Our friends and family are still talking about the space and its pristine Art Deco design.

    I coordinated a wedding at this venue in June of 2024. What a fantastic experience. Lindsey Haskins was my first point of contact and she was absolutely wonderful to work with! She replied to my MANY questions very efficiently, and thoroughly. She was right there on the day of whenever I needed her. Love that woman! The Oviatt staff is outstanding as well. Alejandro, Cedric, the bartenders, and the set up team - just the best! (Sorry guys, I failed to get all of your names but you are all awesome.) The venue is unique and spectacular! It is appointed with original decor and maintained with love. While there, you feel completely removed from the busy city and high-rises surrounding you and taken back in time to the opulence of the 1920's. Stunning. If you would like your wedding day or special party to be the talk of all of your guests, you have to visit The Oviatt - IT IS A RARE GEM!!

    We were first interested in this venue due to the 1920's original interior so we wouldn't have to spend too much on florals/decor. Gabe and Linsdey were so friendly and professional that we booked the venue without seeing any other ones because we just knew it was the perfect choice. Gabe and Lindsey were super accommodating, responsive, professional, and chill at the same time. We can't speak any more highly of Gabe, Lindsey, and the entire Oviatt team. If you're looking for the most unique wedding experience without a hefty price tag BOOK HERE!

  • Couldn't recommend enough, fantastic!

    We're not from the US and found the Oviatt online, we fell in love straight away but I was very nervous about picking a venue without having seen it in person. Gabe and Lyndsey put our minds totally at ease and were so accommodating and helpful, I cant thank them both enough. We had the most amazing wedding and they took off so much of the stress. If you're considering The Oviatt as your venue, just go for it! The team are fantastic, the venue is beautiful and I cant recommend them enough.
