Your Wedding Reception


 

A Reception Room Like No Other

 

Welcome to The Playhouse Theatre, where your reception becomes a truly unique and memorable event. Our magnificent reception room was styled by local artist John Gozney in a captivating grotto motif, featuring stunning copper lighting rigs, intimate nooks and crannies, and of course, a large stage.

We provide high-quality tables and chairs for up to 100 guests, and can arrange for more if needed. You are welcome to decorate the space to match your vision, and our theatre lighting can be customized to complement your color scheme, transforming the room into a magical setting.


 

Stress-Free Planning with Our Experts

He will work with you to plan every detail, including food, seating arrangements, and entertainment.

Our goal is to handle the logistics so you can relax and simply enjoy your special day.

Entertainment for a Night of Fun
