Booked Upland's event space for our wedding recept...

Booked Upland's event space for our wedding reception. The staff were absolutely wonderful, made sure everyone was happy with food and drinks the whole night, and even sent my husband and I home with leftovers and a bottle of wine they had packed away for us.

We live in Washington, DC, so planning was less than easy for us on many things because we could not see places beforehand. However, Kelly Hogan made sure to send me tons of photos and even a floor plan showing different ways we could arrange tables in the space. She emailed back and forth with me a ton, and made planning from a distance as easy as it could be.

They were also very accommodating of dietary needs - we have some family and friends who are vegan, I myself at the time was vegetarian, and they had dishes available for all dietary needs. They also let us bring in our own desserts, so we brought in cookies rather than a cake.

They don't set up decorations, but it was easy to figure out a time where we could send people to set up for us. They were very flexible in helping us plan all the set up and tear down. They also gave us access to their speaker system so that we could play our own music, as we did not have a DJ.

Finally, the food was great and every single person was professional and kind to us and our guests. An excellent experience, and I'd recommend it to anyone who is looking for an affordable, casual wedding reception location.
