We cannot say enough wonderful things about Mercantile Hall! The staff here is beyond dedicated and truly ensured our wedding day was seamless from start to finish.
Our coordinat...
or, Nicole Mickelsen, guided us through the entire planning process, and her combination of professionalism, genuine care, and warmth made her feel like part of our family.
Savannah at Bon Bon Belle also deserves a huge thank you for helping me find my dream gown. I ended up choosing the very first dress she put me in because she listened so carefully to my likes and style.
We also want to give a big shoutout to DJ Lady Groove and DJ Terry Palmer of MercSound. They not only helped us plan all of our music details but also kept the dance floor packed and the energy high all night long!
If you want your guests to experience the magic that Mercantile Hall brings, this is the place to be. The unique atmosphere of this venue is unmatched and will forever hold a special place in our hearts. We would get married here over and over again. Thank you, Mercantile Hall, for making our wedding day everything we dreamed of and more!
We got married on August 28, 2026, and we truly could not have asked for a better venue than Mercantile Hall. From the moment we first toured the space, we knew it was exactly what...
we were looking for, and somehow it exceeded our expectations on our wedding day. The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous, and so many of our guests commented on how beautiful the space was and how seamlessly everything flowed from the ceremony through the reception.
A huge shoutout to our coordinator, Beth Grunert, who was nothing short of spectacular. Beth was incredibly easy to work with, responsive, organized, and always willing to help with anything we needed throughout the planning process. On the wedding day, she handled everything behind the scenes so flawlessly that we were able to be fully present and enjoy every moment. Knowing Beth was coordinating gave us complete peace of mind, and we cannot recommend her highly enough.
We also have to give major praise to DJ Lady Groove. Our one request was simple: bring the energy. She absolutely delivered. From the moment the dancing started, the atmosphere was electric. She kept the dance floor packed, played an amazing mix of music, and created an unforgettable party that our guests are still talking about. The fact that she was out on the dance floor dancing with everyone just added to the fun and showed how invested she was in making the night special.
The entire Mercantile Hall team played a huge role in making our wedding everything we dreamed it would be and more. If you're considering Mercantile Hall for your wedding, book it. You won't regret it.
Had our wedding reception at the Mercantile Hall last weekend and had such a great experience. Our coordinator, Beth, was an amazing help throughout the entire process. She had eve...
rything under control and we got to enjoy the day stress free. The bartenders and other staff were great as well.
I would HIGHLY recommend that couples use the vendors through Mercantile Hall, especially the DJs of Merc Sound. We had Sharica (aka DJ Lady Groove) and she was exceptional. She brought so much joy and energy to the dance floor. Everyone was dancing the whole night.
Thank you Mercantile for the great memories!
We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Mercantile Hall and the team who helped make our wedding day absolutely perfect.
From the very beginning, Stephanie made us feel ...
confident in our decision to choose Mercantile Hall. During our tour, she was transparent, patient, and kind, taking the time to answer all of our questions and help us understand every aspect of the venue and planning process. Beyond that, anytime we happened to run into her around the community, she always greeted us warmly and made us feel so welcome. It was clear from the start that the people at Mercantile Hall genuinely care about their couples.
Beth, our coordinator, was exceptional. She was in our corner from day one and supported us every step of the way. Throughout the planning process, she was organized, responsive, and reassuring, and on the wedding day itself, she executed everything flawlessly. Having someone we trusted so completely allowed us to relax and truly enjoy the day.
The entire Mercantile Hall team deserves recognition. Every employee we interacted with was friendly, welcoming, and professional. The level of care, attention to detail, and genuine hospitality was evident in every interaction, and everything came together seamlessly on our wedding day.
We also appreciated the bookkeeping team, whose payment reminders were incredibly helpful and made staying on top of deadlines easy throughout the planning process.
One thing worth mentioning is the value Mercantile Hall provides. The pricing was very reasonable for the incredible level of service, expertise, and support we received. From the first tour to the last dance, we felt like we were in excellent hands, and that peace of mind was priceless during wedding planning.
Looking back, there is honestly not a single thing we would change. Mercantile Hall exceeded our expectations in every way, and we are so grateful to everyone involved in making our wedding day unforgettable. If you're considering Mercantile Hall for your wedding, book it. You will be supported by an amazing team and treated like family every step of the way.
From the moment we toured Mercantile Hall I knew this was the venue for us. The brick, outdoor garden, and overall industrial vibe was exactly what I was looking for. Then, meeting...
the team solidified that this was our venue because they are all so knowledgeable, supportive, and positive. They are exactly who you want in your corner on the busiest day of your life. Beth was my coordinator (I highly recommend the luxe coordinator package) and she was AMAZING! She helped me with planning, getting organized, setting up a timeline, and supported me through the whole process. Then, once wedding day came I didn’t have to worry about a thing. Beth took care of everything and executed my vision perfectly. Additionally I used Merc Sound their DJ service and have to give a shoutout to DJ Terry! He was SO organized, detailed, and brought the energy. Having both DJ Terry and Beth running the most important day of my life kept me sane, relaxed, and able to live in the moment. Another aspect I love about this venue was the location. Downtown Burlington has everything you need for your weekend. When I booked Mercantile Hall it was primarily for the beautiful venue itself, but the staff and coordination blew my expectations out of the water. There is so much that goes on behind the seems and it is so important you have trustworthy, organized, and professional people working for you that day. I truly can’t thank or recommend Mercantile Hall & staff enough!!
We just got married at Mercantile and had the best experience, a true 10/10! In our opinion, there is no need to look at any other venue!! Beth is amazing at what she does. She mad...
e our wedding planning process the most seamless and fun! Walking into Mercantile for the first time and seeing our vision come to life is a feeling we’ll never forget, and we give all our kudos to Beth for bringing the vision to life! Everyone at Mercantile is so welcoming, kind, and informative. Beth is so responsive, easy to communicate with, and truly amazing at what she does. She gave us vendor recommendations which was also so helpful! The atmosphere at Mercantile is like no other! We couldn’t be more grateful to have had our wedding at Mercantile and want to relive the day over and over again!
We could not have been happier with our experience at The Mercantile for our son and daughter-in-law's wedding in June 2026.
From start to finish, Beth, the event planner, was abs...
olutely amazing. She was professional, organized, and kept everyone informed and on the same page throughout the entire planning process. Her communication was excellent, and she was incredibly responsive whenever we had questions. What I also appreciated the way she presented ideas and options. She made sure we understood what was available without ever making us feel pressured.
The venue itself is beautiful and worked perfectly for our celebration. We comfortably seated 165 guests indoors and only needed to remove a handful of tables to create a spacious dance floor. The outdoor ceremony was lovely, and the cocktail hour on the patio with the adorable Susannah bar created exactly the relaxed, elegant atmosphere our kids had hoped for.
Burlington also turned out to be a wonderful location for our guests. There were plenty of accommodations and restaurants nearby, making it easy for family and friends traveling from out of town.
As someone with a background in event planning, I tend to notice the details, and I can honestly say that The Mercantile exceeded my expectations. The combination of a beautiful venue, exceptional staff, and seamless coordination made the entire experience memorable. Planning a wedding can be stressful, and they eased some of the burden of that stress.
We highly recommend The Mercantile to anyone looking for a wedding venue. It served as the perfect backdrop for a very special day, and we are so grateful to Beth and the entire team for helping make our family's special day absolutely perfect.
Our wedding at Mercantile Hall was everything we could have dreamed! From the spacious bridal/groom suites and the interior charm of the venue itself (exposed brick, brand new bar,...
high ceilings, plenty of room to dance and mingle), to the outdoor Urb Garden (camper bar, smores station, ivy covered brick, beautiful gate backdrop), it has everything! We received so many compliments on the little touches such as the gallery wall of photos leading to the main reception room (we used photos of our parents and grandparents weddings). Venue aside, our guests that stayed for the weekend absolutely loved the charm of Burlington and that everything was so close (hotel across the street, rehearsal at the local brewery down the block catered by the Italian restaurant at the end of the street, late night bar directly across from the venue for the afterparty). MH is really a destination more than a venue.
We worked with a day of coordinator (Hi, Nicole!) who made the whole experience easy and as stress free as possible. She helped us with all of the steps and question along the way and was so sweet and down to earth. We really appreciated all of the staff that helped make our day wonderful. Would 100% recommend Mercantile Hall - I can't imagine a more perfect setting for the start of our married lives together!
Mercantile Hall was an incredible venue.
I am so pleased that my daughter and her husband found this lovely location for their special day. Beth was an extraordinary person to work...
with throughout the whole process. She was so kind and so helpful from the initial booking to the in-person consult to the rehearsal to the big day. The attention to detail that Mercantile Hall brought to the event was exceptional. The bridal suite was so wonderful for the girls to get ready. The photo ops were perfect-both inside and out. Having the wedding outside was gorgeous. The dinner set-up was quaint and beautiful. The space for the dance floor was spectacular. They truly had a perfect day!
We recently got married at Mercantile Hall in April of 2026. This was the only venue we toured because we fell in love instantly. It is such a pretty venue and we loved the outside...
urb garden. We were lucky in April to have a beautiful day to get married outside. We also loved the feel of getting married in a small downtown area. Burlington has many cute restaurants and shops that are walking distance.
The staff at Mercantile Hall were so great to work with. Our wedding coordinator was Beth! I am not someone who enjoyed making all these big decisions, and Beth was so helpful and made it easy. Mercantile Hall helps recommend lots of vendors in the Burlington area. Each vendor also helped recommend/ refer other vendors in the area. They all work so well together and put together a beautiful day.
First I got my wedding dress at Bon Bon Belle. They are located right above Mercantile Hall. I had a wonderful experience with them. On my wedding day, they helped steam my veil and had my dress hanging beautifully in the bridal suite.
For the wedding, I rented furniture and decor from Gertrude and Evelyn. Susan made the welcome room and head table area look stunning! Renting from her was the way to go! For floral, I worked with Toni at Gia Bella Florals. She was so easy to work with and everything turned out beautiful! Both of these ladies work so well together and have lots of experience at Mercantile Hall. I took a lot of their suggestions and let them do their thing! Highly recommend!
For dinner, we used Smokin Blues BBQ and did buffet style! 100% recommend Emmet and Rebecca! We got so many great compliments from our guests on the food! Everything was so delicious, but everyone raved about the brisket!
We used Mercantile Halls in house DJ! DJ Terry was amazing! He was so easy to work with and tried to make everything stress free for us! We had multiple meetings with him to make sure he had all details perfect for the big day! He truly made our day so special, from the ceremony all the way to the last song of the night! He is so fun and charismatic! He definitely kept the party going all night! I had so many of our guest come up to us during the night and said our Dj was awesome!
We were referred to have our rehearsal dinner at the Liars club in the Window room ! It is walking distance from Mercantile hall which is super convenient. The Liars club was a great place to grab a cocktail and the window room was a great room to host the dinner! We had Zumpanos cater our rehearsal. Everything was delicious! We also ordered pizza from them as our late night snack! Super yummy pizza!
Lastly, we rented 2 of the nearby airbnb’s for the weekend: The Mart and the Nash! The Mart is the perfect spot for the bridal party to get ready in the morning! Lots of natural light for getting ready with hair and make up and overall just a really neat airbnb. The Nash was also a super cool building. We rented the Hudson! Perfect spot for the groomsmen to hang during the morning. Both are walking distance to the venue! Also loved that the hotel is a block away from the venue for your guests! Everything is so close which made everything easy!
We had the best weekend and wedding day! We couldn’t have done it without all the staff of Mercantile hall and all the vendors! Thank you so much!
Mercantile Hall is amazing!!! We love their hospitality and flexibility with the way they worked with our vision/budget for our wedding. They truly care for what you have in mind a...
nd helping you with all the details of building up to your day. The staff is all so understanding and super helpful and knowledgeable with any questions you have. They’re amazing and communication and can’t thank them more for their beautiful space they have. It’s a place worth checking out to see if it’s the right fit for you.
We had the absolute best experience with Mercantile! The DJ was awesome! And our coordinator, Nicole, was amazing!!! She really took a lot of weight off our shoulders by helping us...
stay organized and helping us come up with ideas for the wedding that we were more comfortable with. She honestly saved the day more than once and I don’t know how we would have gotten through our wedding day without her!
I can't thank Mercantile enough for everything they did for us. Our wedding was perfect thanks to them. Beth and Chris, our coordinator and end of the night staff were AMAZING! And...
DJ Terry? Phenomenal! Our friends couldn't stop talking about how awesome he was! It was the most beautiful night.
Mercantile was the perfect venue for our wedding providing the small town feel we loved with a gorgeous space and excellent service. Every bit of the planning process was fun, orga...
nized, and helped us put our day together in just 9 months. We loved all their recommendations and having local vendors who were familiar with the space made everything run smoothly. We also used their in house music (thank you DJ Alto!) who took care of ceremony, cocktail hour, and our reception perfectly. Our guests loved the lavender lemonade served out of Susanna, late night s’mores, and getting beautiful photos in front of all their scenic spaces.
Our wedding was nothing short of magical, and so much of that is thanks to this venue and their incredible team. Not only is the space beautiful, but it’s also located right in the...
heart of the **Burlington wedding district**, where everything you could possibly need is just steps away—bridal shops, florists, restaurants, Airbnbs, and even furniture and décor rental shops. It’s truly a **one-stop shop**, which made the entire planning experience so much smoother and stress-free.
Our onsite coordinator was an *absolute joy and pleasure* to partner with throughout the entire planning process. She supported me every step of the way, and she was right there to hug me both before and after I married the love of my life. Her warmth, professionalism, and genuine care made such a difference, and I can truly say I’ve gained a **lifelong friend** through this experience.
And the DJ—just phenomenal. His energy and dedication to making our day the absolute best were unmatched. He brought all the vibes, all the expertise, and played the **best music from start to the literal finish** of our day. The entire celebration flowed perfectly because of him, and the dance floor never missed a beat.
If you’re considering this venue, let this be your sign to book it. You’ll be cared for, supported, and surrounded by people who genuinely want your day to shine. We could not be more grateful ❤️
We had our Halloween wedding here, and it was truly the most magical, seamless, and unforgettable day! From the moment we booked, the team made us feel so supported and excited — a...
nd Beth, our planner, was absolutely incredible. She helped execute every detail of our vision perfectly and made sure everything ran smoothly from start to finish. She coordinated with all our vendors, kept everything on schedule, and was such a calm and joyful presence throughout the day.
We had an outdoor ceremony that couldn’t have been more beautiful — we received so many compliments on how stunning the location was! We did the highest bar package, which included a welcome drink and two signature cocktails, and added the apple cider upgrade — such a perfect touch for a fall wedding. The drinks were a huge hit with our guests, and they even created a special cocktail just for me as the bride, which was such a thoughtful surprise.
Our guests are still raving about the atmosphere, the setting, and how personalized everything felt. We couldn’t have imagined a better experience. If you’re looking for a venue that brings your vision to life and makes your day effortless and extraordinary, this is the place!
Pricing
-- The base price for the bar, ceremony usage, and rental was fair and as expected.
However, there are many additional items, such as signature cocktails, Edison Lights, a...
nd usage of their outdoor games were overpriced and unmissed. However, things like the camper and the calligraphy that we did not use, were noticed by guests in a negative light.
My husband and I had to explain that the camper can be used as an outdoor bar, but was also an heavy extra cost that we did not feel was worth. The unuse of the calligraphy, but instead there was a spotlight on a blank piece of brown parchment paper, and it felt very embarrassing. When these extras are in use, I am sure they are lovely, but when a couple cannot afford or choose that it was not their taste for the big day. The venue can lead to inexplicit shame for us not taking on the extra costs.
- Coordinator/Point of Contacts
Throughout our experience with Mercantile, we had three different people people being our coordinators/point of contacts. The first one my husband and I enjoyed professionally and personally. Due to maternity leave, we were very understanding as to why we were given a new person of contact.
The second person, we were not as pleased with for different reasons. The larger issue that I had was during a coordinator meeting, between the venue coordinator, our personal coordinator (hired outside of venue), and myself. At one point, she began to show a list of things that are offered at the venue, but it was not said they would all cost extra until questioned. With a lot of anxiety already, I was almost in tears with embarrassment and shame when it was exposed that all of them were extra, starting at least $50 to 1,000 or more. I was quick to say to skip the list entirely.
This coordinator was also inconsistent with response times, being from one hour to several days. At one point, we were having a conversation about the bar minimum after sending our final count. At first, it was over email and turned into a phone call. We had not met our minimum with 110 guests and had some extra money that needed to be filled. Over an email, I was told one number, and the phone call, she told me a much different number with an unclear reason as to why that was. At first, she gave us two possible solutions. Both of said solutions were either over budget, which a month until the wedding is not what any bride or groom wants to hear, OR did not serve all of our guests that could feel rude to those guests. We came to the solution of a bottle of wine for the bridesmaids and I got to the venue, the groom & men got beer when they arrived, and 11 cocktails during the reception for myself and husband "free" of charge.
Somewhere with weeks until our wedding, the venue switched the coordinator for the third time. The reasons for this switch were never explained to us. This person, unlike the last, was very consistent and quick to respond with the majority of the time was under two hours. We did enjoy her brief work with us.
Overall
We adore our wedding venue and its beauty inside and out for the ceremony and reception. We enjoyed the freedoms we did have and the convenience of the location for both ourselves and our guests. Looking back, our biggest complaints would be the nickel-and-diming with extras, some of which we agree are overpriced. The second being the switching of points of contains numerous times, which other brides and grooms can only imagine the frustration.
Mercantile Hall was such an amazing venue for our wedding this past weekend. From the gorgeous event space, to all the accommodations, photobooth, DJ, amazing drinks and bartenders...
. It was such an amazing day and a huge part of that was my venue coordinator Nicole! Nicole was such an amazing help & made me feel so comfortable and normal in wedding chaos! She was such a big reason my day went so smoothly and I couldn’t thank her enough. My MOH and I both had issues with our dresses & the amazing ladies at Bon Bon Belle attached to Mercantile Hall came over and stitched us up! Everyone was so so amazing all day! So happy we choose this venue!

On the day of the wedding, the Mercantile team was incredible. They handled everything so smoothly and made sure the event ran perfectly. If anything didn’t go as planned, they were already on it before I even noticed. The space is beautiful, the staff is amazing, and the whole experience was just so well taken care of. We’re so glad we chose them!

The outside ceremony space was magical, the reception area was breathtaking. Absolutely out of this world — our guests are still talking about it! We truly couldn’t have asked for a better place for the most important day of our lives.
If you’re looking for a wedding venue that’s as stress-free as it is spectacular, look no further. This place is a dream come true!
My husband and I got married at Mercantile Hall in Jan 2025 and we could not recommend the venue more! The venue space itself is warm and inviting and can really lend itself to a ...
lot of different styles and any time of year. Merc offers a lot of different services, such as their event coordinator package that we utilized (HUGE s/o to Stephanie!!) and in house DJ team and we liked having those services all in the same place. The team also worked great with our outside vendors and a lot of them had worked together before, so I really trusted their collaboration and eye to bring my vision to life. The Mercantile Hall staff is a well oiled machine and we were so impressed with the management of our rehearsal and wedding day logistics. Definitely would recommend to anyone!
Mercantile Hall was the most dreamy, perfect place for our winter wedding! The staff were incredibly accommodating and allowed our visions to come to life. The space is absolutely ...
divine and fit our ~150 guests perfectly. We especially enjoyed the lighting, gallery wall, and our hot chocolate bar outside at night! Nicole was a super star and helped bring everything together in a seamless fashion. She was supportive and provided so much love to my husband and I. My wedding was the best day of my love and Mercantile Hall served such a massive role in that! Thank you!
We could not recommend Mercantile Hall enough!! This venue is our favorite place. We toured the venue before we were even engaged, knowing the craziness of the wedding industry rig...
ht now, and we fell in love the moment we walked through the doors. Every staff member we met was welcoming and warm, clearly loving the work they do. We booked immediately, and our wedding planning journey would not have been as smooth as it was without their help. We went with the middle level coordinator package, and I would absolutely recommend this as well. We worked with Stephanie, and she ensured every detail was curated to perfection. She knew our entire bridal party and parents (20 people) by name, made sure there was never an empty glass amongst us all, kept my husband and I fed and clear from any hiccups, and made us feel like the most special people with her love and attention. On our wedding day, the entire staff gave this same energy. They were warm and kind to our guests, and had the perfect mix of blending into the background while also enjoying themselves and the party. Our day was PERFECT, and it would not have been possible without Mercantile and their staff. We love you, Merc!
We went with Merc Sound because we trusted the Mercantile Hall staff, and we were SO happy with this decision!! We met with DJ Terry first, who spent time getting to know us as a couple, our vision for the day, and the soundtrack to all our important moments. We filled out a detailed workbook, and then he matched us with one of their DJs who fit our vision best. We were matched with DJ Levi, who was super upbeat and really understood our vision of the day. We knew we were in good hands! On the morning of our wedding, we got the news that DJ Levi had a family emergency, but DJ Gray (Nathan) would be stepping in. The DJs had met and spent time going over everything to make our day happen, and the transition couldn’t have been smoother. Nathan checked in with us often to make sure everything was right and key details were being hit. When the dance floor opened, he had a perfect blend of our wants and his creative and professional input. As the bride, he really let me run the show, and we came up with hand signals I could give him from the dance floor so he knew if I wanted a song skipped, to move on, or keep it going longer than the minute thirty timestamp rule we had given. Our dance floor was full all night, and we have Merc Sound to thank for that!
We got married at Mercantile Hall on 11/24/2024! We can’t recommend them enough! They made our wedding day the best day ever!
The Merc Team has been so supportive from the beginn...
ing to the end! We had some hard times getting back to wedding planning after my husband’s mother passed earlier in the year and the Merc Team was right there supporting us with whatever we needed. They helped us create a beautiful memorial for her on the wedding day. ❤️
I cannot recommend their coordinator packages enough! The coordinator packages are worth every penny, and Stephanie, who stepped in as our coordinator within the last month or so, was a true dream to work with! She answered all of the questions I had and made my wedding vision come true. The in person meetings we had were always filled with laughter and definitely put my mind at ease through the planning process. It was nice to be able to discuss my vision and have their input on things. Stephanie did so much for us not just during the planning process but also the day of. She helped come up with a way to hang one of our pictures that was heavier than expected, made beautiful arrangements with extra items we had and even became a spontaneous seamstress when I needed her most!
My bridesmaids and I loved the getting ready suite upstairs! It is a beautiful space, especially to take pictures and has tons of natural lighting! It was also very convenient to get ready there and have a big space to put all of our belongings and hang our dresses. Mercantile also has other add ons and in-house services that just make the day even more magnificent! We had the fire pit and s’mores and the hot chocolate! It was all so wonderful and made the day even better!
The day of team was also a wonder to work with! I went down the morning of to thank them all for helping on the day and they were all so kind calling me a beautiful bride and congratulating us on our joyous day! They really helped make our vision a dream come true! We also used Merc Sound for our DJ, and Preston (DJ Alto) delivered a fun experience for all!
In general, Mercantile Hall is a beautiful venue that we keep getting compliments on. It’s spacious but also gives an intimate vibe as well. The Merc Team made us feel like family and we are so happy we went with this venue!
So happy we went with merc hall for our wedding they did an amazing job making sure our day was perfect!
If I had to do it all over again I would choose Mercantile Hall EVERY time! Not only is it a beautiful venue but everyone there is so amazing to work with. I thank everyone there b...
ut especially Destiny who was my coordinator. She went above and beyond what I ever thought I needed or wanted in a coordinator. She was so incredibly helpful for this type B bride who had no idea what she was doing! If you're on the fence about the coordinator package, do it! The extra meetings you get are so worth it and they set up your wedding beautifully. Can't forget the bartenders... I heard nothing but the highest praise for our bartenders throughout the night and even the weeks after our wedding. They were fast, nice, fun and made sure everyone was well taken care of! I can't say enough about this venue. They truly made my wedding day the day of my dreams ❤️
We got married at Mercantile Hall on 9/21/24 and cannot recommend them enough! We had both our ceremony and reception there and guests loved that they didn't have to travel from on...
e place to another. We used their DJ service and LOVED DJ Levi. He did an excellent job at playing music that we suggested while keeping the dance floor full and making appropriate announcements as needed. We got the coordinator package through Merc and had Nicole as our day of coordinator. She was seriously the best through every step of the way including the in person and phone meetings we had with her throughout the planning process and all of the emails and questions that we had along the way. On the day of, they set up the venue exactly how I imagined it and everything was so beautiful. The bartenders and all of the other staff were also so amazing. Everything went perfect and I thank the Mercantile Hall team for that. Their communication and professionalism was 10/10.
We got married at Mercantile Hall 08.30.24! It was everything I wanted and more! Each and every person we got to work with was so thoughtful and insightful and made my day 100x eas...
ier than I thought it would be. My coordinator, Stephanie, took all my boxes of decor and even a box of random stuff I liked but didn’t know where to put it to use and turned my wedding into exactly what I was envisioning! Everyone went above and beyond down to creating my little brother a new boutonniere with my extra flowers because his was lost, and allowing me to use a welcome sign stand because mine wasn’t working! As the bride they really make sure the day is about you and there isn’t anything to do besides get married so we were getting drinks brought to us while we were eating, anything I needed to be held or to find they’d do it, answering my 100 questions an hour, and more! My coordinator also spoke to all my vendors and figured things out as needed which was such a stress reliever. I received SO many compliments on the venue choice and multiple people said it’s one of their favorite wedding locations they’ve ever been which is such a great compliment!! If you’re debating between The Merc and somewhere else you should 110% choose Merc!
I cannot put into words how perfect Mercantile Hall was for our wedding ceremony in August. A majority of the venues in our area were too outdoorsy for us and/or were a barn which ...
was not what we were looking for. Mercantile Hall was the perfect blend of rustic, industrial, vintage aesthetics and it's nestled in the cutest small downtown. All of the staff we worked with went above and beyond our expectations. Stephanie, Jess, Levi, Eric to name just a few. We purchased the Premier Coordinator package and it was well worth the price! Our coordinator Stephanie had our decor displayed beautifully and kept the day running smoothly. Eric and the night shift team had everything packed up and ready to be picked up the next morning (part of the premier coordinator package). All in all they really gave us the perfect day and I am so grateful for Mercantile Hall and staff!
We got married at Mercantile Hall in July of 2024. This was the only venue that my husband and I toured. We knew instantly that it was a perfect match. We cannot compliment all of ...
the staff at Mercantile Hall enough for helping us make our wedding dreams come to life.
The venue is intimate yet spacious. Even with the minimalistic decor that my husband and I chose, the Urb Garden and indoor reception space was absolutely stunning. Every corner of this venue lends to beautiful photography. Our coordinator was so attentive and helpful, putting me and my husband at ease on the day of the wedding. Nicole made our vision come to life and ensured that the day ran smoothly.
The add ons that my husband and I chose made the day extra special. From the bridal suite upstairs for my bridesmaids and myself to comfortably get ready in, to the outdoor camper bar, to having access to the bag boards and s’mores pit at the end of the night- no detail is overlooked and you and your guests are sure to have an unforgettable experience.
Thank you to the Mercantile Hall team for helping make our wedding the best day of our lives 🤍
We had our wedding back in March 2024 and mercantile hall was our venue. They were amazing!! We couldn’t have picked a better venue. All the staff was super nice and helpful, the c...
ommunication was always on point, highly recommend getting the day of coordinator package (made our day go super smooth and stress free) Dj listen to our request and had everyone dancing , signature drinks were delicious and just how we wanted them!
Our guest can’t stop talk ing about how comfortable and how much fun they had.
Thank you Mercantile Hall for making our special day a Dream come true

We had an amazing wedding day at Mercantile Hall! The venue is gorgeous with it’s brick accents, lighting, amazing outdoor space, and much more. They offer various decorations to p...
ersonalize the space to make it feel even more special for you on your wedding day. We loved that our guests could stay inside and show off their dance moves or go outside for a quieter environment. All of the staff at Mercantile are so helpful and willing to answer any questions you may have while going through the wedding planning process. We had a perfect day and definitely would recommend Mercantile Hall to any future couples to celebrate their love!!!
We recently got married at Mercantile Hall and our vision of our wedding was able to be completed here. It is a nontraditional wedding venue and allows you to really be flexible in...
what you want. We chose an outside ceremony which it turned out to be a beautiful perfect day and worked out beautifully. We also chose to have a heavy app "dinner", and not have guests in assigned seats - just an open flow which turned out fantastic. Mercantile Hall was extremely accommodating for this request and we greatly appreciated it.
The venue is stunning and you can keep your decor to the minimal side, which is really nice. However, if you do choose this venue I highly recommend Gertrude and Evelyn - Susan was so wonderful to work with, had really reasonable prices and she does the set up and take down!
Mercantile Hall also offered great partners for food (we chose Tuscan which was OUTSTANDING) and offered a lot of great idea's like flowermoxie for doing our own flowers, pizza partners in town etc.
We also had an open bar, and although it was a little pricey - by a lot of these other options (limited decor, great food partners, doing my own flowers) we were able to fit it into our budget. The in house staff was excellent the day of and so accommodating.
I did not have a wedding planner or day of coordinator and did it on my own with my best friend and groom and it did go smoothly.
My only feedback was the in-house DJ which is why this didn't get a 5 star. There seemed to be no communication or review of what our plan was prior to the day of. We had an hour meeting about exactly what we wanted prior with the manager of the team, we also filled out a workbook, excel spreadsheet of exactly what we wanted and did not want and a word document and provided it to the team and the day of I was stuck answering very simple questions that were all laid out in those documents. While he was super nice and easy to work with - I thought for the price we paid for the in house DJ to play was extensive, I would have just created my own playlist and played it for what ended up happening.
BUT it doesn't take away from how wonderful the venue truly is, I would just consider not doing the in house option.
My Husband and I got married at Mercantile Hall this past May and we adored every minute of it. We knew immediately after taking a tour that it was our venue. In fact, we wanted to...
get married at Merc. so bad, that we booked it before being officially engaged. We have received more compliments about the venue than you could imagine both during and since the wedding.
10/10 recommend getting the day of coordinator package. Racheal was our coordinator and I was blown away!! When I saw all of the decor set up, it was more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. She was there for us every step of the way and responded to any questions we had in a timely manner. Racheal literally only had to ask me one question the whole wedding, otherwise she took care of everything and did it so seamlessly. Mercantile Hall staff also cleaned up all of our decor which is priceless. They even took care to wrap all of my vases and package everything so it wouldn’t get damaged on the way home. Trust me when I say that you NEED to get married here!
We had our wedding at Mercantile Hall this past May. It was such a great experience! The venue is beautiful inside and out. All staff that we worked with was so helpful and really ...
made the planning process and wedding day fun and as stress free as possible. Our event manager was Nicole and she was sooo nice! We just had a baby in March and she gave us a diamond ring shaped rattle and a Just Married bib for the baby! So cute!! All in all this venue is amazing and beautiful and I can’t recommend it enough!
All of the staff and managers are extremely professional and accommodating. Destiny did an amazing job working with our other vendors to coordinate all of the moving pieces, and we...
had an amazing time! 10/10
Mercantile Hall was so amazing to work with throughout this whole process! Every staff member was so helpful in their role to make our wedding day so much easier. We had Racheal as...
our day of coordinator and Levi as our DJ through Merc Sound and they were both amazing and flexible with us all day. The location of Mercantile Hall is perfect with many photo op spots in and around the venue, a lot of parking for all of your guests, and many hotels/short term rentals to stay at that are just blocks away from the venue. We have nothing but great things to say about the venue and their staff for helping make our day amazing.
The Mercantile was the best venue. They were so sweet, helpful and very professional! Through out the whole process you can call or email with any questions and they were so fast t...
o answer. Along with that they always had an answer. I loved all of there energy’s! The venue in its self was absolutely beautiful. They had extra like a disco ball if you wanted that extra decor, they also had more add on you could choose from. I would truly pick this venue over and over for my wedding! So a big thanks to the Mercantile Hall for making our dream vision come to life. It truly was a magical day!
I can guarantee you that having your wedding at Mercantile Hall will be nothing short of perfection. From the day you tour to the day you walk down the aisle, Mercantile Hall is th...
ere for you every step of the way to help and customize it for you. Our coordinator, Racheal, took out so much of the typical stress of wedding planning and helped the day of go absolutely flawless, handling communication with vendors, setting up all of our decoration, and making sure everyone was where they needed to be. Our guests also could not stop talking about how perfect the space was and how pictures just don’t do it justice. I highly recommend starting your forever with Mercantile Hall!
I knew I wanted to have our wedding at Mercantile Hall as soon as I found it on Google. The style of the venue is what caught my attention. We chose to have a micro wedding. The ev...
ent managers were extremely professional and response time was always great. The only thing I would note is that the space for an indoor ceremony isn’t huge, but it was perfect for our smaller wedding (around 70 people). We are super happy that we chose this venue and would highly recommend it!
We got married October 2023 and it was the most perfect day. Mercantile Hall was the second venue we toured and we booked it the next day. The indoor and outdoor spaces are just am...
azing! It made for beautiful pictures and we are so thankful we found this space! Also super thankful for Destiny who was our coordinator and helped us every step of the way by answering all my questions and giving awesome vendor recommendations! Having the coordinator package made it a very easy stress free day! The staff is awesome!
We LOVED Mercantile Hall! It was the first and only venue we toured. We fell in love with it and knew it was the only venue we wanted. It is beyond beautiful! We used their coordin...
ate package and Destiny was our coordinator. She was truly amazing and made our wedding truly special. I loved that with their coordinator package they handle all the set up and clean up at the end of the night. It was pretty expensive but well worth it in my opinion.
We got married this September at Mercantile. I truly don't even know where to begin, but you MUST put this on your venue list to come see. I'm so thankful for The Knot for recommen...
ding Mercantile. As soon as I went to their Instagram, I was intrigued, and then their website. I immediately fell in love with Suzanna from the pictures! My first impressions of Mercantile started before we even went on our tour. They sent us a confirmation the day of and told us where to park. If that was any indication of how well their communication is, I was impressed. Destiny was our tour guide, and then we were able to have her as our day-of coordinator, which she was FANTASTIC at! Halfway through the tour, I knew this is where I could picture getting married! It's the perfect space for an intimate wedding! The communication throughout the year was phenomenal, and any questions I had for Destiny, she answered all of them in a timely manner! She was so helpful! I loved all of the add-on options as well, which I know they've expanded since we toured. I loved that they were upfront about the cost of things and payments throughout the year! I'm so glad we added on the Bridal Suite - it's stunning and such a great room to have the entire day! Mercantile just really makes your life easier when it comes to planning a wedding! Our wedding still feels like a dream, and I cannot thank Mercantile enough for being so wonderful. Mercantile is a hidden gem! It was better than we could've ever imagined!
My husband and i got married at Mercantile Hall this past weekend and we could not be happier. We had a situation come up earlier in the year where we needed to rework everything w...
e already had planned with our wedding, and as soon as i toured Mercantile Hall, i knew this was the place we had to get married at.
Racheal was our event coordinator and she was WONDERFUL! She communicated so well, answered all of my millions of questions, and made my vision come to life the day of better than i could have imagined.
The way Mercantile operates made everything run so smoothly. I had SO MANY friends and family who are already married to make sure you scarf your food down cause you will barely eat that day and the day will go by in a flash, but i truly did not feel that was the case. My husband and i got our full meal, dessert, and even drinks. The venue is so beautiful and especially at night! I wish i could relive the day all over again.
I could go on forever about how much i loved Mercantile Hall, as well as the experience of getting married here! I promise you wont regret it 😊
I had my October 2023 wedding at Mercantile Hall & it was perfect! The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous, so well maintained and it has so many cute touches and details. Our coor...
dinator, Destiny, was incredible! She was there for every step of the way with us & our day wouldn’t have been as amazing without her. She was professional, organized, & went above & beyond in so many ways! Every staff member was helpful & committed to making it a great day. We will always remember this day & are so grateful to Mercantile Hall & their staff for making it perfect!
Absolutely gorgeous venue to book. Their staff is pleasant to work with. My wedding day ending up going off without a hitch and I couldn't have done it without the help of the staf...
f! Thanks Merc!
I had my wedding this summer at the Mercantile Hall and would highly recommend them as a wedding venue. I planned my wedding from out of state and their coordinators were very easy...
to communicate with and flexible with my schedule when I was in town for additional tours and meetings. The venue is absolutely stunning and very thoughtfully laid out. It easily held our 125 guests without feeling cramped. The indoor space is beautiful with the old brick and wood; there are lots of options for customizing the interior to make it personalized to you. The outdoor space was my favorite and was perfect for our ceremony. The venue is also near several parks and other great photo spots for you and your bridal party. Their fees were on the higher side for venues that I looked into but they were transparent about pricing upfront (ie let you know about their service fees and minimums or if something was an upgraded cost - there were no surprise add on fees). With that being said, the Mercantile Hall team was excellent, professional, and made sure everything that day ran smoothly. We utilized their coordinator package, getting ready suite, bartender w/ Susana rental, and DJ; this really streamlined the planning process and all of them did an excellent job.
Mercantile Hall is the perfect place to get married. It is unique, has so much character, and affordable compared to surrounding areas. The venue itself is beautiful and looks exac...
tly like the pictures online. But what really made our experience incredible was our Event Manager Destiny. I can’t tell you how easy she made the wedding planning process for us. My favorite part about working with Destiny was her extremely fast communication and organization. She responds to your questions quickly so you’re not sitting around waiting on answers. The planning process was straight forward, easy to follow, and clear. We are still getting compliments to this day about how beautiful our venue was. I would recommend Mercantile Hall to everyone! 10/10 experience.
