We chose Sticks as our wedding venue this past September because of the beautiful floor to ceiling windows and modern industrial vibe. It is a blank canvas ready to take on whatever you dream up. Anthony Marinaro is the event contact through Out of Box Productions and I could not speak highly enough of his service and attention to detail. Any question I had or advice I needed he responded very quickly this was also a deciding factor for us as we realized in the early stages of planning that is not the norm in the wedding biz. We did not hire him for day of coordination (although if you're able, I recommend that you do he knows the ins and outs of the building and has done many events there) but he was still very helpful in many aspects of planning and preparation. A true pro!
We had planned to have the ceremony in the beautiful wooded area right outside the building but because it rained we moved indoors. There is a completely different area for the ceremony that does not disrupt the reception at all so it worked out well. It turned out to still be a beautiful ceremony!
The 36' chalkboard in the reception area made for a great canvas for beautiful, simple decor and is truly unique to the space.
The downside to Sticks is that there isn't air conditioning in the building. So if you are thinking of a summer wedding I would keep that in mind. They do have many large industrial fans that helped, though. Also, they have some strict policies on rentals, catering and vendors so I would be sure to read through the contract and understand fully what you are getting into before you book. Although, we found everything we needed to be fairly reasonable and worth it.
Overall Sticks was a beautiful space with well organized people working to make sure your event is the best it can be. Our guests raved about the space and how beautiful it was in the evening. My husband and I recommend highly!
