Casey Hopkins2 months agoAmazing venue for our wedding! We truly had the best experience at the Rumely. Brett was incredible to work with from start to finish. From the emails, to the in-person meetings, to answering all of our questions, we really appreciated his responsiveness, reliability, and attention to detail throughout the entire process. The venue itself is absolutely stunning. There are so many unique details that make the space feel special, and our guests couldn’t stop talking about how beautiful it was. Everything came together perfectly, and our wedding day was truly everything we hoped for. We owe a huge thank you to Brett and everyone at the Rumely for helping make our day absolutely perfect!
Maddy Westcott6 months agoI couldn't recommend utilizing the Rumely Event Space more! Aside from the space itself being beautiful and encapsulating a true balance of both historic and modern charm, we truly had a great experience working with Brett and his team to make our company holiday party come to life. Smooth sailing and no fuss!
Lynne North10 months agoUnforgettable Experience at The Rumely – A Dream Venue! If you're searching for a venue that blends historic charm with modern versatility, look no further than The Rumely. This space is a true gem that offers endless possibilities for creativity and personalization. We hosted our wedding across multiple stunning locations—starting with a romantic ceremony on the 12th Street Bridge, followed by a lively happy hour on the street, and culminating in a breathtaking reception upstairs after riding the iconic wooden elevator with champagne in hand. It was pure magic. Brett and his team are phenomenal—professional, passionate, and genuinely invested in making your event extraordinary. Brett was incredibly responsive, thoughtful, and meticulous, ensuring every detail was handled with care. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the unique setting, the seamless flow of the day, and the convenient parking. The Rumely isn’t just a venue—it’s an experience. Highly recommend!
Hannah Brockway4 months agoHave now had two events for our nonprofit at The Rumely. Brett, Andrea and Evan were absolutely stellar to work with. Accommodated our somewhat complex events with grace and ease. Cannot say enough about how we love the space and the professional/kind nature of this crew. They work so hard to support and encourage us to execute a wonderful event. Excellent up and down the line.
Lauren Smitha month agoThe Rumely was such a beautiful spot to hold our wedding reception. Parking was easy for guests as they own a 600 car lot. The Rumely offers a huge elevator with a bar for guests. We booked the second floor and got so many compliments about the elevator ride. The interior is very beautiful. They have several vintage chandeliers and couches that make for great photos. They also allow you to rent from their collection of decor at only $10.00 per table. Brett was amazing. He was so helpful throughout the whole process. He allowed for several tours with family, picking out decor, and allowed us to come back the next day to pick up some items we had forgotten.
