Let’s get real… it’s not only about weddings. “Gatherings in SoCo” is an outdoor event venue. We gather with family, friends, coworkers, congregation members, roommates, teammates and a variety of other acquaintances. We celebrate birthdays, anniversaries, graduations and retirements. We have showers, picnics, parties and family reunions. We hold retreats and revivals. We play sports and games and participate in tournaments. We seek fun and recreation. We love attending bazaars and festivals. We support fundraisers and charities. Sometimes we just need to recharge enjoying our favorite music played by our favorite band. You may be considering the perfect location to “pop the question” or invite friends and family to celebrate as you renew your vows. Whatever the occasion! That’s the beauty of the outdoors, whether simply under the sky or under a tent, an open space can be personalized and adapted to provide the setting and atmosphere you desire for your event. All events are private and secure with on site parking.
