Show stopping venue. Every guest loved the venue! We used the train as our ceremony backdrop and all our guests loved exploring and taking their own photos around the train station. Guests couldn’t stop raving about it. We used the main area as the reception space and it needed very little decor to look spectacular. Worth every penny! - Holly M.
