Professional, friendly, thorough!
We'd recommend Sepia for any wedding dinner reception that is a little bit more intimate for a 'big dinner night' sort of vibe. We had a great experience from start to finish! SMOOTH is how I would best describe the working relationship with them; they were attentive to every detail and even accommodated several last-minute guest changes without hesitation. What really impressed us was their willingness to bake our cake and work with the floral stems we provided to create something truly unique for our guests, as well as a custom wedding cocktail that tasted great! The entire staff was professional, skilled, fast, AND friendly, which allowed us to relax and enjoy our dinner instead of worrying about logistics. The food itself was delicious and the warm service made our guests feel so welcomed. We can't thank them enough for taking such good care of us on our big day.

Sepia was incredible to work with! The food was some of the best I’ve ever had, the staff was amazing and answered all our questions and was so helpful in every step of the process. I would highly recommend Sepia for a wedding!

Summer Wedding
The space was exactly what we were looking for and the food there was amazing. Planning it with Sepia was very easy and stress free as they took care of the most important parts (venue, food, drinks). The space was big enough for an intimate ceremony and our guests (we had about 50). The guests loved the vibe and the staff was amazing to myself and all the guests. They made it exactly how I pictured it. Would highly recommend holding a micro-wedding here if you're looking for great food and warm and elegant setting.

Perfect venue for an intimate wedding
We had a 56 person elopement reception at Sepia. Josh was great every step of the way and quick to respond to any questions we had. The Sepia team the night of was phenomenal — everyone left full and couldn’t stop talking about how great the food was. Would highly recommend Sepia for a small wedding or event!

Outstanding Experience
Private Dining by Sepia was a phenomenal choice for our son's wedding venue. From the moment we first reached out, their communication was fast, helpful and friendly. The venue was truly beautiful, elegant and private - exactly what we were looking for. On the day of the wedding, the Sepia team provided great service with everything on point, and the food was absolutely delicious. I was able to fully relax and enjoy the evening because Sepia had everything taken care of. The evening was fabulous, and we couldn't have asked for more. We highly recommend Private Dining by Sepia for any couple looking for an exceptional wedding venue experience.
