“We celebrated an intimate wedding with 15 family members (14 adults and a baby) at Harvest in their Fireplace room. The day was absolute perfection- the room was spacious yet cozy on a frigid 10 degree day, the service was phenomenal, and the food was spectacular. We were a difficult group to feed; nearly every guest had a unique dietary restriction and Harvest ensured that each guest would remain safe and happy while dining. We will forever cherish this special celebration and look forward to dining at Harvest in the future!”

“We cannot recommend Pagu highly enough for your wedding or event. From the very first email, they were unlike any of the venues we had reached out to. Overall, Pagu is flexible, which not only made wedding planning MUCH less stressful, but it made our wedding personal to us. Every time we had a question, they had an answer and a solution. You’re not messing around with rentals for plates, chairs, tables, linens or tons of decor. The space is beautiful and already functions so well as a restaurant, allowing you to just be their guest on your wedding day. The FOOD! Multiple guests came up to us and said it was the best wedding food they had ever had. Everything was hot, fresh, aesthetically plated and delicious. The family style sharing was relaxed, fun and nobody had to wait in line. The cake was so light and beautifully decorated. Day-of, what really stood out was the exceptional service and kindness we received from the entire team at Pagu. Everyone who works there was so positive, accommodating, and thoughtful. When I was “hiding” before the ceremony, the team delivered an entire tea/coffee service with some of the food to make sure I got something to eat! When we got back to our hotel, we found a portion of each dish in our fridge, just because they heard we hadn’t finished our second course or dessert while we were socializing. It was above and beyond thoughtful! Beyond taking extremely good care of us, all of our guests commented that it was one of the most relaxing weddings because the Pagu team thought of everything. At most weddings, there’s not a server checking in with you about your allergies, restrictions, and if you would like a drink. Since Pagu is a restaurant, you get outstanding restaurant-quality service. They even made a last minute, individual substitution for a new dietary restriction on the spot, and allowed that guest to enjoy the food, too! Another huge bonus was there was almost no bar line, since they’re used to making drinks for this many people! Other highlights of our experience include doing the cocktail creation session with Jimmy. We aren’t big drinkers, so we almost didn’t do this, but we are so glad we did - it was a blast, and the guests loved the personal cocktails. We highly recommend it! The space is gorgeous, the people are a dream, and the food was outstanding. Amanda (the venue coordinator/manager) was so easy to work with and on top of everything. Even our very traditional families (who were very skeptical when we said we were getting married at a restaurant) said afterwards it was one of the best weddings they’d been to.

“Batifol was the perfect venue for our wedding of 100 guests. From the start, Desmond and Kelly were wonderful to work with - they were flexible, communicative, and receptive to our vision. The setup and layout of the space was ideal, and their team provided amazing and prompt service throughout the day. The food and drinks were delicious, and they were incredibly accommodating with the drop off and pick up of our decor, as well as very helpful with the setup. We were able to have our ceremony in their bakery space which worked out beautifully, then everyone flowed out onto the patio for cocktail hour, and then into the restaurant for dinner & reception—the setup was perfect and everyone raved about how great to atmosphere was. Batifol ensured our special day went off without a hitch, and we are so grateful for their hard work and hospitality.”

The concept for Dearly Studio is novel, but not new — plenty of little chapels exist outside Las Vegas, and giddy couples have been skipping over to their local courthouse since forever. What makes Dearly so special is the care that goes into crafting each ceremony, the community of vendors we’re lucky to be surrounded by at Bow Market and the flexibility of our packages to provide a bespoke experience. Cookie cutter weddings are OUT, friends. Time for big feelings, small weddings and a celebration that’s uniquely yours.

“Getting married at Dearly was one of the best wedding decision we made. The character and charm of the Dearly space is unmatched and Jusmine is like no other! Jusmine was available and helpful throughout the ENTIRE process- she brought the energy and careful detail that every wedding needs. Professional and personable, she truly made our ceremony one-of-a-kind. I rave about Dearly to any nearlyweds I meet, promising that Jusmine and Dearly will deliver because she is THAT girl.”
