It was my first time attending any kind of event at Olio, but I hope it won't be my last. Right off the bat, the place is just cool. Steeped in history, literally the floors, the walls, and the ceiling (or lack there of) all have a story. If you like history, this place is full of it and it's definitely worth asking for a history lesson. The vendors that are hand picked by Olio are all familiar with the location and work perfectly in it. Everything comes together seamlessly to make a magical event. I wish the night didn't end.

Walking by Olio on the street you would never know the magic that is inside. As you walk up the stairs, your eyes are treated to an incredible interior filled with dramatic walls, beautiful wood floors, and windows that let the light pour in. This was the first venue we saw and we loved it immediately. You get the opportunity to really customize the space to bring your dream day to life. The team at Olio is amazing and made me and my partner feel so relaxed and guided through the entire wedding planning process through our event. Our guests adored the space and could not believe the amazing energy that vibrates in these walls. I would move into the space if they would let me. Could not recommended enough!

Olio saved our wedding day! After postponing due to COVID and our original venue halting events for an extended time, I am so happy we found Olio! It ended up being better than our first choice. We always dreamed of a unique wedding space and Olio was just that. We are thrilled with how our day turned out. Sarah and the Olio staff were nothing short of amazing. Even with a minor hiccup (unrelated to Olio), Sarah kept us calm, almost as if there wasn’t a hiccup at all! I miss our wedding day and being at this gorgeous venue every day! It truly was the best!

I was there to DJ and run a photo booth for a prom. The staff there couldn’t have been more helpful and what a great venue! High open ceilings and plenty of space for a good crowd to have a great time!

Olio is absolutely stunning! They were the first and only wedding venue that we toured, and we couldn’t be happier with our decision. When entering Olio, the first floor was unassuming, and we weren't sure if we were in the same space that we had seen in the photos. But wow, when you head over to the stairs! After walking up the grand stairs to the event space, we knew we found the venue for our dream wedding. We were looking for a modern, alternative space that we could hold the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. Planning a wedding during the pandemic, we needed a venue that had plenty of space to spread out while also feeling intimate and personal. Olio was the perfect space. We both have a minimalistic design sense, so the exposed concrete walls, hardwood floors and impressive windows create such a beautiful space that we didn’t need to go over the top with decorations. It was so cool to hear the history of the space; a detail our guests loved. Sarah was so positive and helpful through the whole process; answering any questions we had and checking in regularly.

We have been married for over a month now and for a month I’ve tried the best way to put into words our experience at Olio. From the moment we booked to the day of our wedding everything was perfection. Even that word almost does not do it justice. We are two teachers who to say the least have had a crazy year (like us all). Planning a wedding while teaching during a pandemic is a feat. But planning a wedding with Sarah at Olio and her team at Without A Hitch makes all things possible. We searched high and low for a unique wedding space we could make our own. We found that and more in Olio. The venue is a blank canvas where you can design the space into whatever it is you want. We struggled with many layouts in other venues where ceremony spaces, bars, and dance floors were just where they were. No room for changes or thinking outside the box. We knew we wanted a memorable space where guests have never been before and could flow freely to dinner, bar, lounge area, and dance floor. Olio is a venue where you can truly create an atmosphere where your wedding day exudes your style and celebrates your love. It is not your generic wedding factory that pumps out the same wedding every weekend. I have been beyond inspired the way that space has changed through each event, wedding, or photo shoot. The space is more than just a wedding venue and speaks for itself the second you get to the top of the stairs. We cannot thank Olio enough for our experience and for finding the beauty in the space they built from the ground up. For Sarah and her team for dreaming up a vision which allows us and others to enjoy the same love. We highly recommend Olio for your wedding or event space needs!

Got married in September and had my reception at Olio! I was truly blown away how the room was transformed, it exceeded all of my expectations. I always knew I didn’t want a standard cookie-cutter wedding, I wanted a space where we could be creative and different. The exposed brick created a beautiful atmosphere that we were able to make our own. Finding/coordinating our vendors was challenging at times (we had to move our wedding because of Covid) but it was all so worth it! Sarah was extremely helpful in recommending vendors and easing our anxieties before the wedding. If you are looking for a unique venue where the possibilities are endless this is it!

The owners of Olio have created a remarkably unique venue that offers a beautiful open floor plan that can be transformed into whatever you want it to be. The floor plan options are endless when considering your ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception space and it was a lot of fun watching our plans come to life within the space. As a wedding planner I can honestly say that working with Sarah and the Olio team was a seamlessly wonderful experience. They are organized, clear and there to answer all your questions while you are planning your wedding at Olio. On my couple's wedding day Colleen was on-site for any questions myself or the rest of the vendor team had. She was always and truly created a welcoming feeling as soon as we walked into the door. A spectacular experience in a stunning space (that guests cannot stop gushing over!)
