The Wire/James Newbury Hotel
We first heard about the Wire Event Center through a photographer on Facebook while the venue/hotel was still under construction. We fell in love at first site and are glad we went with it! The views are amazing, and with James Newbury attached, the location is highly convenient. The venue itself easily checked all our boxes while looking for the perfect location for a wedding. Isolated, but not far from an airport, scenic for spectacular wedding photos, accessible for those requiring wheelchairs, and walkable distances to other restaurants for rehearsal dinners, welcome drinks, and after parties. Inside the venue itself easily accommodated 100 guests, dance floor, DJ setup, photo booth, and more. We did cocktail hour in the Atrium which offers an awe inspiring view on a beautiful day with areas both inside and outside. The real star behind the venue was the assistance from Holly Harman. Leading up to the event, Holly was able to help organize, set up, and answer a multitude of questions both regarding venue or reaching out to vendors. Holly was an amazing contact before, during, and after the wedding to the point that we begged her (after work hours) to join us at our after party. Throughout the wedding day, she was able to help coordinate transitions between events, assist with last second adjustments, and even take care of our rambunctious pupper, Asher. It was originally supposed to rain on our wedding day, however she took care of that, too :) The communication was exceptional, and we could not have asked for someone better to work with. I will admit, we had a rowdy bunch at times requiring some firm language to move from reception after party after-after party (shout out to Ravish Liquors), but for our family, that's what is needed. If we could go back, we would choose this location again and again, 100%! Thank you tremendously to Holly and the rest of the Wire Event Center staff for the best day of our lives!
