Alissa was super helpful, responsive and the place was exactly as described! It was perfect for our cocktail photoshoot

Industrial Flex space with Natural lighting
II are Beautiful spaces. Both available rooms are blank slates that are very versatile. We started our evening in the smaller space as a cocktail party with live music and a grazing table for guest as they arrived. Then we transitioned to the larger space for dinner and the birthday...

Unique Bar/Rest in the heart of Capitol Hill Seattle
Life on Mars really exceeded our expectations. The food was great, as we're the cocktails. The space itself was a treat and the staff were incredibly helpful. We had such a good time, my partner and I both remarked the next day, that we'd want to host something...

Unique North Beach Gallery
My husband and I rented this space for our casual/intimate cocktail wedding reception with 60 guests last week and it was perfect! Andrew went above and beyond to ensure our reception went as planned. He was very communicative (via phone/text/email) and was very accommodating/flexible. He suggested reliable local vendors and...

Beautiful Art Gallery - Blocks from the Liberty Bell
This is a great location for a cocktail party, reception, or (as in my case) birthday party. As long as you're not interested in throwing a raging party, this place could do nicely. They also let me choose which art would be hanging up which was a great touch...

Neighborhood Bar with Heated Enclosed Patio
