Making Memories Since 2014

We recently had 120 of our closest friends and family for our wedding at 1890. It was such an awesome experience working with them! The owner and manager were wonderful and took care of literally everything. Our entire wedding party was able to have our rehearsal dinner on property the night before. The bride and bridesmaids stayed in the house the night before the wedding and loved the experience. Thank you 1890 for giving this old but new couple a day in our lives we will always cherish!

We had such a great experience with 1890 during our special day. They were very professional throughout the entire process and helped everything run smoothly. We were able to customize our experience down to the smallest details in order to have a perfect wedding. We are so thankful to have had our wedding at such a beautiful venue. We would recommend this venue to any of our friends and family for any event or wedding in the future!

OMG! I love 1890 Event Space! As a Wedding Officiant I have seen so many Wedding Venues, but 1890 Event Space is one of my all time favorite outdoor venue spaces! As soon as you pull onto the property you just feel warm and cozy! There is a sense of magic in the air. I love the owner! I recommend them without hesitation.

1890 was truly our dream venue. We couldn’t have asked for anything better. From having our rehearsal there the night before and staying the night to the best reception. The owner and the staff were amazing to work with and so accommodating! I would highly recommend having your wedding at 1890.
