“We had our wedding at St. James in September and could not have had a better experience! From their incredibly helpful and attentive staff, gorgeous atmosphere, and functional set up - everything was truly 5 stars. Our guests had only amazing things to say as well. Kelsey and Danielle were huge players in making our day as smooth and beautiful as it was - they are the best of the best! We’d recommend St. James to anyone!”

“We attended a wedding here, so we have a limited view, but from the perspective of a wedding guest, it was excellent! Beautiful indoor and outdoor spaces, huge bars, plentiful restrooms, and very beautiful plants all over the place! Very much worth a look as a wedding venue!”

“Absolutely amazing venue with amazing staff! We held a “smallish” wedding reception/party” at the Firehouse and it was just perfect! Amy, the venue coordinator, was simply the best. Her suggestions and vendor tips were spot on. I felt like we were in such good hands, all we had to do was show up and have fun!”

“I have been taking dance lessons at Daync Academy since March. I went from very little dance experience to feeling confident in social settings. Josh and Amber are great instructors and take the time to work with their students. They are knowledgeable and are very welcoming. The environment they created has made me feel safe during my dancing journey. The advanced students are very helpful, understanding and friendly.”

“We got married at The Cooperage in late May 2025 and worked closely with Maddie to plan the day. While communication was a tad rocky at the start, that quickly flipped and Maddie was AMAZING!! When you think girl boss, Maddie should be the first person that comes to mind. Leading up to the wedding day, Maddie made sure all our questions were answered, took the time to explain details to us and our options, and really just made the whole experience of planning a wedding from daunting to enjoyable. When it came to the day of the wedding, Maddie was on-site ready to go with her team as soon as the venue opened and it looked STUNNING inside. Her and my day of coordinator worked together and truly made me have the best day of my life. I couldn't be more grateful for everything Maddie and her team did. The bartenders at the Cooperage were amazing and there is no other word to describe it. I had multiple guests come up to me saying how awesome the bartenders were and their drinks were absolutely delicious. There was a point about an hour before walking down the aisle where we were taking pictures and one of the bartenders comes up to me with my signature cocktail for me - INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!! And don't even get me started on the food. Holy crap. The food at our wedding was THE most complimented part of the wedding. The appetizers we choose were better than when we came in and tasted. So many compliments here and that people didn't have room for the actual meal because of how good the apps were. And the actual food, we ended up going with the BBQ and that was the best decision we could have possibly made. Again, so many compliments on the quality of the meat, how creamy the mac and cheese was, and everything in between. I want to have another event at the Coop just so I can eat all the food again! The last thing I will mention is that Maddie helped us get in contact with the Airbnb owner. The Airbnb is located right above the Cooperage, so we had a beautiful space for my bridesmaids and me to get ready the morning of that was incredibly convenient. Overall, if you are a laid back Bride and Groom who are looking for a great space and team to work with, look no further than the Cooperage!”

“We had our wedding reception here last month and it was a phenomenal experience from start to finish. The location is close to downtown and has the perk of free parking for guests (a rare find for downtown wedding venues). John, the owner, was great to work with. He really cared about making sure our reception was everything we hoped for. Our guest count was near the max capacity and it held everyone comfortably. We had to purchase our alcohol for the wedding and he told us exactly how much and what kind to get which made the process incredibly easy.

In the weeks following the wedding, we received so many compliments on the venue itself. We are so glad we chose to have our reception here and would highly recommend it!”

“I was there for the Black Excellence Awards ceremony. The center is very spacious, the servers were polite and attentive, and the bathroom was very clean. The food was just okay. We had chicken with mixed vegetables and potatoes. The dessert was pound cake, and it was set on the table with the salad. By the time we finished dinner and was ready to eat dessert, the pound cake was starting to get hard. It was less than desirable. During the reception, there was plenty of coffee, but the creamer containers were empty fairly quickly. Needless to say, I didn't get coffee. They had 2 bars in the reception area, so if you didn't get a drink before you head into the dining area, water was at the table. Lastly, there was plenty of parking.”

“This was such a fun event. I really liked that they had different times for certain ages so that there weren’t really young kids with older ones. There weren’t any lines and my daughter had lots of fun. One thing I really liked what the pricing of water. You could get a bottle for $2 which I appreciated. We will definitely do it again.”

“Gather at Deer District: The Dream Venue with the Dream Team (Mikayla & Mali)

The space itself is stunning—modern, flexible, and perfectly situated—but what truly sets this venue apart is the extraordinary team, Mikayla and Mali, who turned our vision into flawless reality.

Our journey began with Mikayla, who is an absolute master of logistics and understanding client needs. She was a true partner in the process of securing the space, patiently walking us through every option, making sure the venue configuration perfectly matched our guest count and aesthetic goals. Mikayla’s clarity and professional demeanor gave us immense confidence from day one that we had found the perfect canvas for our celebration.

As the wedding approached, Mali stepped in and became our day-of execution wizard. Her talent for planning and organization is unparalleled. Mali ensured that every detail, from vendor load-in schedules to the final timeline for the ceremony and reception, was flawlessly managed. On the wedding day, she was the calm, competent force behind the scenes, allowing us to relax completely and simply enjoy every moment. Mali's communication and attentiveness throughout the planning phase made us feel prioritized and supported.

The synergy between Mikayla and Mali created a seamless experience. They provided not just a venue, but a wonderful partnership that allowed us to feel like guests at our own wedding. If you want a breathtaking space and a team dedicated to understanding your vision and executing it perfectly, you must choose Gather at Deer District.

“Great service from the front desk, restaurant and cleaning. The Westin continues to live up to their standards for a great sleep experience. My only feedback is that parts of the hotel seemed dated. I’ve noticed in general lately that Marriott does not seem to be investing as much into their existing properties.”
