Frequently Asked Questions
For a wedding, 19Main can hosts up to 130 seated for a reception with a dance floor, or as little as 50 people with our Mini Wedding Package. 19Main has no minimum guest count! Our two main rooms are adjoining by a short hallway, so often one side will be cocktail hour and the other a sit down reception!
For special events, your guest count will determine which room best fits the needs of your event – With two different sized main rooms, our smaller room can seat up to 50 comfortably for an intimate shower or birthday party, while our larger room can seat up to 150. If you’re looking to host a cocktail style party, our smaller room can accommodate up to 100, and our larger room up to 250 – Great for wine tastings or fundraisers!

For weddings, it will depend on which package you choose. Our Basic Package offers the space 12pm-11:59pm, while our other 4 packages offer the venue from 9:00am to 11:59pm. The venue must be cleaned up and vacated prior to the 11:59pm, so it is recommend most events end no later than 11:00pm to allow time for cleaning.
Special Events are offered rental for a 6-hour period, with the earliest start time being 9:00am, and the latest end time being 11:59pm – which gives you time to decorate and have the party be whatever duration you please. Most special events will run 4 hours in duration.
No! We only host one event per day, so you can have the full day access and space to yourself.
