Foundry Room

I am so grateful that I ‘found’ Jody and the Foundry Room!! Right from the day I first signed my contract to the day of ~ I was taken such great care of. This venue was 100% what I envisioned when I set out to find a space to pull together my friends & family for my 50th Birthday Party!! Working with Jody was unbelievable! I’ve never worked with anyone who is so efficient in replying to emails and assisting in attention to detail in such a calm and caring manner! The icing on the cake for me was when she texted me on the day of my party saying that she had a surprise for when I showed up!!! To go along with my theme she had decorated a bicycle for two and set it at the entrance door. Completed my day ♥️

Thank you for the beautiful event. It had a magical vibe to it and we/our guests had a great time. A highlight of the event was the wonderful staff during the evening. They tried their very best to accommodate, help, support, and make sure our needs were met. A special thank you to them!Although our event day itself was lovely, our planning process with this venue was quite stressful and did not ease the stress of planning an event as we hoped when we chose this venue in the first place. We are hopeful that with feedback, these things can be changed to make the experience of other couples much better.1. The communication between the owner and the venue manager (planner) was disappointing and substandard. There was miscommunication with many different parts of the event, and it felt very unprofessional. For example, there was a change in catering companies without us being informed at the time of booking, and there were multiple things that the owner promised that we later found out that the manager was not aware of in the first place, which caused confusion along the way. However, the planner tried to rectify some of that. The communication styles lacked professionalism and accountability at times.3. Regarding timing, the venue was not ready on time and guests arrived with things not being a 100% complete. This seems to be a consistent issue we have heard from other vendors as well, as it seems that the set up is often started last minute.4. The front door locks automatically at a certain time in the evening and guests were locked out and unable to enter the building. Although, this was resolved by the staff as they had an extra key.5. Related to food, the food was quite good and they were accommodating of special dietary needs, which was great! That being said, it arrived late, and the appetizer table was not ready when the first guests came in. The grazing table was not a “grazing table.” It was a couple of small trays that were definitely not enough for the number of guests we had. This was quite disappointing, especially, as we have asked for photos earlier on what to expect and we were not provided with accurate photos. The supper was good, but again, it felt that the last guests did not have options. The desserts were phenomenal and great, 100% recommend the desserts!6. The music system was great, and we loved it. However, the mics were not charged, and this caused issues during our event. It truly felt that the venue was under-prepared, and this was disappointing considering the importance of the events they host and the price they charge.Even though the experience we had behind the scenes was generally not the best, our guests had a great time and the event itself was beautiful, the welcome sign was great, and the building and décor were stunning, so thank you!

We recently got married at The Foundry Room OEX and are so happy that we chose the Foundry Room for our special day! Kay and Adi were instrumental in making sure the planning and big day went smoothly. They were very accommodating throughout the whole process and the decor turned out so beautifully! The vendors we worked with through the Foundry Room were also so fantastic! We received many compliments on the catering and florals. We highly recommend the Foundry Room!

We recently had our ceremony and reception at the Foundry Room this past weekend. The staff and team went above and beyond to carry out my vision for our special day.I started planning our wedding the first week of January 2023 and managed to secure all vendors and decor decisions within 3 weeks of starting. We did have some loose ends to tie with the planning but our previous coordinator we worked with in the beginning was a bit unresponsive/ uninterested to help finalize our plans.A new coordinator, Adi stepped in and was absolutely wonderful!!! Adi, Jody and the team made our day perfect.Every question was answered, every request was fulfilled. Every little detail was perfect. We are beyond pleased and happy with this venue. Our guests (85 ppl ) had a lovely time and we are grateful and thankful for everything!

Save yourself the unnecessary stress by not choosing Foundry Room for your wedding. Multiple unfulfilled promises, lack of transparency and accountability, and complete disregard for prioritizing brides. We got married September 2022 and similar to other reviewers, the owner did not think to mention our venue, OEX2, was still under construction only six weeks before our big day. At the time of contract signing, we were promised it would be finished in time because they had weddings booked as early as May 2022.We discovered for ourselves when we drove by the construction site (picture included). She did not apologize or use the word “sorry” at any point. She arrived late to each of our scheduled appointments and was difficult to get ahold of. We used their recommended vendors and none of them were aware of the venue change. I had to scramble to get all of this confirmed on my own. We did not receive a discount for the significant inconveniences. Please choose a more professional, honest and ethical business that actually cares and understands the importance of your big day.

I had my wedding here on sept 17 this year and that was the 4th wedding overall I hd planned because of covid. Jody, Rhea and their crew absolutey exceeded every expectation I had! What they did with my decor was leaps and bounds better than I could have ever imagined! The food was phenomenal, the bartenders were hilarious and amazing and I was so impressed and overjoyed with the experience I had. They made every single dream of mine come true and I didnt even have to rob a bank to have it. I am so grateful to the foundry room for giving me the best wedding day in history! They made planning a wedding stress free and fun and anyone who is able to do that is clearly a magician. Thank you so much!

My experience at Foundry Room surpassed all expectations. The venue provided the perfect backdrop for our citizenship ceremony, and the staff's unwavering commitment to excellence made the event truly remarkable. If you are looking for a venue that not only meets but exceeds your expectations, look no further than Foundry Room. Whether you are planning a citizenship ceremony or any other special event, their exceptional service, attention to detail, and genuine care for their clients make them an absolute joy to work with. Thanks Jody & Team :)

We recently got married at the Foundry Room OEX this past weekend, we were very happy with how everything turned out. The planning process was simple, we planned our day in 6 months with ease. People kept asking me if we had everything ready and if I was stressed and I truly felt because of them I had no stress. The decor turned out amazing, and we only brought in a tiny little box ourselves, they had everything! Kay & Adi did a great job coordinating and helping me plan the day! The bartenders and all the other venue staff were all so kind and helpful.

I celebrated my birthday here recently and was very impressed with the space and the Foundry Room team.The space is perfect — modern and loft-like, in a fantastic location. Lot's of free street parking in the area.The Foundry Room team was extremely accommodating, letting me come and see the space, take measurements, etc. before the even and then letting me install my own decor the day of the event. The bartenders were very patient, accommodating, and lovely to have at my gathering as well.The vendors that they work with at the OX location were fantastic (Culina — food was amazing) and Tarnished Timber (the soft seating was perfect).Will definitely book the space again for a future event!

This past weekend I hosted a full weekend dance event at the Foundry OEX. With so many things to plan and worry about I was relieved that the venue was not one of them. The venue is not only beautiful but Jody and her team made sure to help with all of my last minute needs. I would definately reccomend using this venue for your next event!
