It is a very large event space. Lots of Windows letting in natural light and easily configurable to a variety of different setups. Parking can be a bit of a challenge, but it is available.

The Rickhouse staff were very friendly and helpful. They allowed us to have a wonderful wedding event. It was also nice to have an outdoor patio. The only thing I wish they could have changed was the temperature. it started off cool but got very warm at times. The dance floor was so hot virtually that the entire party moved out to the patio.

Gorgeous place & ambiance for wedding & reception. Shout out to Daisy my spiritual sister who was on point. I tried to snap a photo as she was closing the door for the wedding party to walk out . She Simply told me NO! I wanted to punch her in the stomach but with "Love" !! She was no joke that's why everything ran so smoothly & by arrangements...Kudos to Daisy & staff.

Cannot say enough good things about the Rickhouse. We've photographed several weddings here and can't wait to be back later this year. The location cannot be beaten, especially if you like a good after party as it's in the neighborhood of some of Durham's most-loved bars. The space is unmatched for industrial chic style—not only do you have exposed I-beams above you, but a huge glass wall looks onto the distillery equipment for a unique backdrop or talking point for your guests. Add the uniquely Durham charm of the Durham Athletic Park (former home of the Durham Bulls), over which the Rickhouse's covered patio looks, and it all combines to make one of our favorite Durham venues. (Caution to hopefuls, though: there *is* an additional charge to shoot in the ballpark.) We cannot recommend the Rickhouse highly enough, and look forward to our next visit!

Attended a wedding reception here and thought the place was beautiful. Enough room for close to 200 people without feeling claustrophobic. We loved the back patio as well as the brewery you could see through the glass.
