    Our Cafe Spaghetti wedding was perfect!

    From our first meeting with Giovanna and Juan, we knew Cafe Spaghetti was the right choice for our wedding. We wanted an intimate ceremony and dinner party for about 65 guests, and we knew that dancing was not going to be a focus, but rather just togetherness with our favorite people. The Cafe Spaghetti team made the entire planning process so easy, and were always quick to respond to us. The team gave us tons of options for food and drink, and even handled tent rental (for cocktail hour in the backyard next door) and party favors so we didn't have to stress about those details. On our wedding day, the space was just gorgeous, and the food was absolutely delicious (can't stress this enough!) and plentiful (can't stress this enough either!) – our guests couldn't stop talking about it. The Cafe Spaghetti team helped us to create an intimate and warm celebration that felt truly special. We got everything we dreamed of for an incredible value, and we can't recommend them enough.

    Dream Wedding Venue

    Cafe Spaghetti made our dreams come true with a small italian wedding that checked every box. We had a small group of musicians play, Negroni's galore, Pasta aplenty, and enough cake to topple an army. Giovanna and her team made the process effortless. From menu selection to vendor recommendations, the process was so special. If you're craving a small intimate wedding venue, we cannot recommend Cafe Spaghetti enough!
