The gathering took our deposit then said they were closing for renovations just 3 months before our wedding after we had sent out invitations. We didn’t receive our deposit back from the venue, we had to go through insurance to get it back. We were then told the Gathering was closing down permanently. We were lucky enough to find Linos Venue and had a beautiful wedding. However, as of today it looks as though they’re still doing events. I know we’re not the only ones they canceled on. Looks like they just wanted to pocket some money without having the events for them . Which is maddening and hurtful because the couple seemed very nice when we met them.
When looking for a venue that is super cute, aesthetic and affordable, The Gathering venue is the spot!!!! We held a small party and Aileen was able to go above and beyond for us. She was super helpful and accommodating, and she was able to meet all of our needs. I would highly recommend this place.
I had my wedding here and the owner Aileen was also our officiant. Everything went smoothly, the venue is so perfect and has a very nice flow to it. Aileen went above and beyond for us and we are so grateful for it. If you're considering using this venue for an event, do it. You will not find anything this nice in this price range.
We had such an amazing experience at The gathering! Aileen and her beautiful family were so Amazing and helpful from start to finish. The space was perfect to entertain our family and friends for our baby shower/gender reveal. Elegant and pure fresh vibes with AC! Definitely looking forward to hosting another event here in the future. Highly recommend the gathering for your next event!
Aileen was very hospitable and professional! This venue was perfect for the babyshower we had there! It was easy to meet up to see the venue and easy to book. From start to finish she just made everything super easy and comfortable for us! The venue itself is beautiful!!! AC was amazing especially it being 110 outside 😂!! We will definitely book again!
