We recently held our wedding at Circa on Seventh. Katie was so phenomenal throughout the whole wedding planning process, my husband and I absolutely loved working with her. Our day was literally perfect! Circa was reasonably priced, beautiful, and had incredible service. We highly recommend hosting your wedding here, it will be everything you hoped and dreamed.

Really disappointed with my experience at circa. I got married here in October and to really shorten things up: there are hidden fees that aren’t made clear up front, unreliable staff, and not well accommodating for their food tasing. The main course tasting took place during someone else’s wedding day where my now husband and I were locked in a separate room during their dinner at 8 pm and they did not provide full portions like promised. They even forgot to provide all the food promised so I had to go back & pick up my hours d’oeuvres in a sketchy back alleyway of the venue by the dumpsters and I attached a picture of what it looked like.
You don’t get to freely make your wedding day schedule, they are strict about how your schedule has to be and you will have to end your wedding before time promised if you try having a little bit of a longer cocktail hour. The bartender we hired wasn’t available most the night and many of my guest told me they could see them in the back on their phone. After expressing all my complaints after the wedding they did not respond or apologize. Lots more to say but I’ll keep it that.
*** updating to say that not once has staff took accountability for their lack of professionalism. I have received an email following this review that tells me that they don’t like what I said and that my comments were “sinister”, instead of try to right their wrongs. They only think highly of themselves and don’t take clients feelings into account. I hate to wright a review like this because it’s not great for a business however this cannot go unnoticed. So sad to see the unprofessionallism prevail.

Circa on Seventh was an outstanding venue for our February 2024 wedding. We wanted a space that could accommodate our 140 guests, but still feel intimate and cozy without feeling too crowded. This venue was the perfect choice. We had a very specific vision for how we wanted our wedding to look and feel, and Circa completely DELIVERED! It was even more magical than we could have dreamed of.
Hanni and the staff at Circa made the entire planning process SO much less stressful. From promptly answering our (many) emails, handling ALL of the setup and take down of décor, and providing us with lots of reassurance that our day would go smoothly; anxious brides should look NO FURTHER! The peace of mind that they were able to provide us leading up to and on the day of our wedding was priceless. They even helped us time our processional entrances so that the bridal entrance happened at an exact timestamp in our song! Their undivided attention to these small details just demonstrates how much they truly care about each couple. Don’t even get us started on how much they nailed the décor. We can’t believe how beautiful and elegant they made our day just from a few basic conversations and inspiration pictures we provided them.
Our guests have shared with us how magical it felt, how much fun they had at the reception, and how great the food was! Truthfully, we weren’t expecting much from wedding food—so we were VERY pleasantly surprised with the quality of the food at Circa. They also have multiple options to accommodate dietary restrictions (which this vegetarian bride definitely appreciated). The late-night pizzas that we added on were also a hit after a few hours of dancing!
The entire day went seamlessly. The staff was able to flip our ceremony space into a reception at lightning speed and without disrupting our guests, they were incredibly attentive to us and to everyone in attendance, and we have nothing but wonderful things to say about the entire experience. We will recommend this venue to everyone we know!

Circa on Seventh was the perfect venue for us. The space speaks for itself with how timeless, warm, and eclectic it is. To have an all inclusive venue is absolutely the way to go; it made the planning process that much easier, and our guests are still raving about the food. And what made the biggest difference was the staff - everyone could not have been more attentive and supportive. The degree of customer service was absolutely outstanding! Thank you, Circa!!

We were served 3 different pastas and one type of chicken. The pasta was bland, had no seasoning and flavor whatsoever. I had high hopes for this place not good at all.

A wedding day ... months of planning, ordering, meetings and coordinating. Hours of figuring out the details and making decision. Every couple wants a perfect day. Circa on Seventh and Culinary Infusion provided a beautiful venue and delicious food. On the important day was when we realized we were OVER PROMISED AND UNDER DELIVERED. The most awkward occurrence was a significant delay (30+ minutes) from the removal of the salad plates to the serving of the entree. This was a very disturbing and embarrassing time for the bride and her family as many of the guests brought it to our attention. Another example was the promise of a bottle of high-end scotch for the groom. The details were discussed at several meetings, promises were made but the 'day of coordinator' did not follow through. In the days following, when the coordinator was questioned about the large gap between the salad and entree, she stated that she was "unaware and would check with her team." We even reached out to the office regarding the same and an answer or explanation has NOT been provided. There were several other issues during this important day including Circa's 'day of coordinator' being frequently distracted. Thousands of dollars was paid to Circa and Culinary Infusion and we feel over promised and under delivered.

Went to a spectacular wedding September 9th 2022, the staff was amazing and the dinner was great. Highly recommend this venue for any function you or your family may have. The professionalism of this staff and the amenities they provide would make the perfect atmosphere for your corporate event or just an employee appreciation event. Garunteed to make some wonderful memories.

Lovely venue for events, it's a little cozy and seems small at first but definitely works for ~100 guests. Great bar and friendly staff, near the waterfront as well so great for pictures.

Beware. I just had my wedding there and had some issues with the service. To start the Hors d'oeuvres were supposed to be unlimited and there is a side room in this location where our deserts and late night nachos were served which is where i thought the Hors d'oeuvres would be served too. My assumption was incorrect. We had choose 3 Hors d'oeuvres. They were served about ten at a time on a plate by three waiters and they walked around with them. It started with three then only two and the unlimited Hors d'oeuvres ran out. We were told they ran out because my bride specifically requested to get saved some and that didnt happen. Our late night nacho addition was also an issue. It was set about 830 and laid out for the guest's and was all cleaned up and gone by 930. At 930 when i finally had time to get some nachos they were gone. We had the venue till 11 and it was never implied that the late night nachos would be >1 hour nachos. I was all excited for a nacho buffet and i got no Hors d'oeuvres or nachos. So i asked to speak with the coordinator and was informed at 930 that she had left hours ago to my surprise. I would not recommend this small venue with inconvenient parking to anyone. I wish we would have looked around at more venues before choosing this one.

Circa on Seventh could not have been a better place to marry the love of my life. The staff went above and beyond with everything our wedding day needed. Kelsey was so responsive and was always available to help and answer any questions we had. Not only did she help throughout the planning process leading up to the wedding but on the day of, I would have been lost without her. They truly made sure we would have the BEST DAY EVER every step of the way!
