Planner’s Review:
501 Union hosts monthly wedding open houses, in the beginning of each month. Open houses grants couples the access to view the venue, meet a few staff members and get an overall idea of what their wedding night could possibly feel like.
The greenery provided in the ceremony area is great element to help couples save money on decor or florals. Using greenery in your wedding aesthetics is super trendy for 2022 and 2023 couples because simplicity is the key to sophistication.
Although, 501 Union is an industrial styled venue, the lounge furniture provided in the cocktail hour area brings a chic aesthetic to any event. You and your guests will be sure to feel like socialites on your special night.
The Bridal Suite is our personal favorite gem in the entire venue. The vintage setting allows for amazing wedding photos especially if you are
