The Columns turned out to be a wonderful place for my wife and I to have our wedding. We had about 75 guests, plus 10 people working through catering/ venue/ photography/ DJ/ etc. And there was more than enough space! Miriam is an absolute treat to work with and made the whole experience stress-free and FUN! I would recommend The Columns to anyone interested in a small-to-medium sized wedding. :)
