The Hive on Hubbard was a spectacular venue to host an amazing wedding. Bethany and all the staff were great before and during the wedding and the view from the roof simply cannot be beat.
We LOVED working with Bethany, Josh and the whole Hive on Hubbard team! They were graciously flexible with us and our needs for set up and our vendors! Our guests kept complimenting us on our venue choice and the gorgeous view of the city skyline from the window we got married in front of. Just the best!
Space was great. Bethany and Josh were easy to work with. Couldn't have asked for a better venue for my birthday party!
The perfect place to have a wedding! Bethany, 1 of 2 owners, and her sister Melissa were great host. Communicated well and Very responsive. You have a question in the middle of the night after business hours, you will get a response before you press send. Thanks so much for allowing us to celebrate the best day of our life using your venue.
Paul and Bethany were so great to work with! They were so helpful and took time to explain everything! The space was clean and is just beautiful! We used the space for my wedding and all my guests loved it! I would highly recommend this space!
It was a beautiful space. Very intimate atmosphere. My wedding was spectacular. The staff works very close with you throughout the process.
I do not know where to begin with writing this review about this fantastic venue, owner and staff. After my first wedding venue canceled on me, I was frantic trying to find everything I still wanted in a wedding venue. I found the Hive, went to see it and knew immediately this was the place for us. Bethany is fantastic! She is extremely knowledgeable, she is very quick to respond to any question, or concern and her staff is great. The owners renovated this 1800's building and kept the original wood, beams, lights, etc. to keep the classy look and feel of the new renovated space. The way everything is laid out could not be more perfect for a wedding and ceremony. The ambiance of the venue is above no other. You get a beautiful skyline view all day and night which makes it even more special. We just had our wedding and people cannot stop raving about the venue. It is a truly magical space with a tremendously fantastic owner and staff. I would book the Hive for any other event without a doubt.. Hands down the most unique wedding venue ever!
Our experience was wonderful. Hosts helped us through the wedding planning and kept us on track with their expertise. The building is beautiful and served as a wonderful backdrop for our daughter and son in laws big day.
