We picked Morgan's based on the 5-star reviews it got. Seriously. We did! ... From the excellent reviews about the staff, to the response time and FOOD.
Then, when we took an initial tour of the venue, we fell in love immediately. And now ... here's OUR 5-star review ...
Our guests responses:
"The steak is the best I've ever had"
"Your venue was perfect"
"The vibe was amazing"
"That rooftop looked like a movie set"
And we felt ALL of that for being true!
Lots go into a wedding ... but the venue could be the single most important piece to the day. We worked with Jena ... who was so knowledgeable and responsive. Seriously, over a period of a year of communication and planning, we never had to wait more than a couple hours to get a response to a question ... and it's not like Jena nor Morgan's didn't have anything going on ... they have something every weekend (and it feels like every other day.) She was busy, but never made us feel like she was too busy to answer any question .. big or small!
At Morgan's, we LOVED the retractable roof and the views and the "vibe" of the rooftop ... so we wanted all of our "main" events of our day located there ... meaning....the ceremony and the reception/dinner, etc. Jena didn't blink with those requests. Told us we would just need about 60 min to flip the space appropriately, so the venue would escort our guests down one level to the loft room. Equally as cool of a space, and for us, worked perfectly for a 60-90 minute cocktail reception while the crew worked to flip the rooftop from a ceremony space to a dinner/reception space.
The loft room was big enough for our 120 guests to mingle and socialize, have appetizers (which were amazing) and drinks as well as entertain themselves with a 360 Photo Booth. Perfect size!
Morgan's then was able to escort our guests up to the rooftop seamlessly ... honestly, we got ZERO complaints about the movement piece of our night.
So expect all of that with Morgan's .... versatility with the venue, and the different rooms you can choose from .... the friendliness and effectiveness of the staff ... and the incredible menu.
Honestly, the menu lived up to its billing. A perfect amount of appetizer choices, entree, dessert and even "late night" bites choices. I mentioned about the rave reviews on the steak ... how can a chef cook 60 steaks perfectly? This chef did! ... Also, we have a gluten-free and vegan family, and we felt very satisfied with the choices on the menu that accommodated EVERYONE's dietary restrictions.
One note that could help the next client.... Morgan's does have some furniture and room decoration choices for your event, which would not be an extra cost; however, we felt like those choices were very limited. We wanted table linens for our dinner and cocktail reception, as well as copper mugs for our signature "Moscow Max" drink, (named after our pup pup) ... and all of those things we had to pay extra for. Morgan's did make it easy for us, in ordering the linens, transporting them, taking them down, and they allowed us to provide our own copper mugs. Super helpful with that service. However, if you have a budget, make sure you ask some of those questions beforehand. Take a look at their rental choices on their website and ask about costs for linens, extra chairs, even specific glasses or mugs.
We lucked out ... the weather was perfect on a Sept night for our wedding. The rooftop was perfect. The food was perfect. The service (led by Jena) was top notch.
It led to the best night of our lives. Thank you, Morgan's!
