Our venue was absolutely amazing! The staff go above and beyond to ensure you have everything you need. HUGE thank you to Ellie for everything she did for us on our big day. If there was anything we needed it was done immediately!
She is very quick to respond to emails, helps with the details, and not to mention has the best venue in town. You can really turn this space into anything you want. It’s simply beautiful. We had our ceremony and reception at the location and it was so easy to flip.

The team at Eastbank Venue & Lounge made our wedding day run so smoothly. Ashley was excellent with her communication and went above and beyond to make sure all areas were covered. It was nice to have someone there to communicate with all vendors and check in with you throughout the night. Not to mention a meeting to go over all the details in advance, so we didn’t have to worry about them later. Ellie on the decorative side did a fantastic job with our head table center pieces and setting up/arranging all the other center pieces throughout the venue. The venue is stunning and the perfect option

I was the photographer for a wedding at Eastbank Venue & Lounge last fall and it is a beautiful venue! The staff were excellent to work with and the space itself is perfect. It's versatile and allows for a really seamless reception that works well. It's a convenient location for nice outdoor city photos. I highly recommend!

Adam and the Eastbank staff could not have been any better. They were easy to work with and the space was perfect for our daughter's wedding reception. We had a 260 guests and the space was not too crowded. Bar service was great also. Downtown location is great for out of town guests as it is walking distance to hotel. Thank you for a stress free/no surprises experience at Eastbank!
