The Downtown Club

Venue Information

The Downtown Club is another beautiful and perfectly located venue by Cescaphe! Each room in this venue has a unique look and character which makes for interesting, creative images.

Tip: if you’re having a DJ, consider positioning your Sweetheart table in the back of the room instead of up front (as soon as you walk in the ballroom doors). This allows for more space on the dancefloor and no one will be in the background of your photos! This particular setup will not work if you’re having a band however.

Stacey and Patrick designed their amazing Tendenza Wedding by taking standard traditions and making them their own!
