My husband and I got married at The Madison this October and it was wonderful!!! The four rooms in the venue guarantee there is a space for everyone. We had our rager of a party in the main room, a cigar bar outside, a speak easy in the Grove (which was quiet for those not wanting to be blasted by music or watch a football game) and our cocktail hour in the Foundry! The venue is a blank canvas, so it allows for creativity and you can really build your wedding into exactly what you envision. They have a list of preferred vendors for you to get started, but you are not required to use these vendors. We were able to cater BBQ, place a light up dance floor and cold sparks, choose our speciality drinks, and bringing drapery and lighting to turn the space into our vision! They have a phone booth for messages, a greenery wall, couch rounds, and a giant swing already built in to the space that you are able to use! The venue itself is a beautiful space, but what truly makes this venue stand out is its staff. We were continuously impressed by the flexibility, professionalism, and kindness we were shown from Daryl, Anthony, and Cher. For starters, they let me bring a donkey and a cow in cocktail hour (which was a must have for me)!! Second, at each walk through or meeting we had at the venue, they made us feel comfortable, excited, and valued!! Daryl would greet us with a huge smile and a hug and would hype us up the ENTIRE TIME. We would always leave saying ‘we can’t wait to see them next time!’ or ‘oh my gosh, they’re the BEST!’. Third, Daryl responded to all my emails timely. Once you start wedding planning, you’ll know what a breath of fresh air that is. Lastly, on the weekend of our event, the crew went above and beyond to make everything run smoothly. They experimented on some new drapery hangings (which looked impeccable), welcomed our family and wedding party with open arms, and set up a champagne toast for my husband and I for when we arrived before the ceremony!! They saw to every detail and were so excited for us the entire time! The week leading up to our wedding, my husband and I agreed that the energy and love we received from the staff at The Madison was essential in making our special day even more special. I would recommend working with Daryl, Anthony, and Cher to anyone!!!!! I feel as though they became our friends over the year and we are so lucky to have had the opportunity to work with them!
