PAIKKA

PAIKKA is an amazing venue!! The natural light & greenery create a beautiful atmosphere, and the casual lounge area coupled with vaulted ceilings and garage doors around the building makes this space one of a kind! It’s just what we wanted for our wedding day. The Green Room was also great to have (can book at additional cost) - we needed a home base for family & the wedding party. Liz was a helpful & communicative point of contact throughout the process, she worked well with our vendors & wedding planners. We also appreciated the freedom to choose our own vendors! This allowed us to shape our day just how we wanted and ended up saving money too. We seated our guests inside for the ceremony due to weather, but they still had access to the outdoor alley area for the night. PAIKKA handled our 150 guests no problem, and we were thrilled with the experience! Photos by Loui Photography

Where to begin with Paikka? It's simply the best. I am a wedding photographer and have shot more weddings at Paikka than any other venue in my 10 years of business. I love this space so much. Each wedding has it's own personality and this space really elevates the energy. The surrounding area is industrial and so much fun for me to get creative with each time. I have never run out of new ideas and places to shoot. Truly some of my most favorite weddings I have had the opportunity to capture have been at Paikka. The staff is lovely and have been incredible to work with each time! I can't wait to be back!

We had our wedding at PAIKKA in July 2022. It's a gorgeous space - modern with beautiful light. With the flexibility in bringing in vendors, we were able to create a celebration that felt like us. The space flows together seamlessly with three spaces -- the outdoor patio area, the "pink" room where we had the bar, photo booth, apps/dessert (and includes a lounging space), and the main space where we held both our ceremony and reception. PAIKKA was perfect for our day - highly recommend!

We cannot say enough great things about Paikka and the coordinating team. When we toured the space, we fell in love with the use of plants and overall aesthetic. The space is modern without feeling overly sterile and incorporates a lot of the building's original character. The outdoor ceremony site is absolutely stunning and the wood, black and white accents made all our design dreams come true. We also chose Paikka for their vendor set-up. We are non-traditional and liked their "if you can dream it, you can do it" approach to food, liquor and design vendors. They made it feel like we were truly planning our special day as opposed to a copy/paste feel from other venues we toured. The new Green Room (bridal suite) made the day even better and was incredible to get ready in. It was beautiful, spacious and had everything we needed! We highly recommend this option if you are planning your event at Paikka. The team is absolutely incredible - they are responsive, organized and provided direction on vendors, design and timing where needed. We highly recommend Paikka to couples planning their upcoming wedding.

Such an incredible space for our big day! We love how customizable everything was as well as the open catering policy. Having the security of a gorgeous indoor option if our ceremony got rained out put us at ease. Luckily the day was beautiful and so was the venue! We also made great use of all of their open houses each month as our wedding day approached so we could visualize the space and talk with the site managers. Thank you, PAIKKA!
