Where do I begin?!
I could not be happier with our decision to go with the Scarritt Building and Sylvia for our wedding day!
When we booked the Scarritt in Aug of 2016. We booked because we loved to space, it is a large venue with beautiful architecture that really requires little decorating. Also, the bride/groom suites are amazing!! When we booked, a different lady was the venue coordinator. We didn't interact with her much as it was early in our planning process, but in December we were notified by Sylvia that she would be taking over and wanted to meet us. After our meeting, my husband and I were so happy that Sylvia was taking over and couldn't have been more impressed with her organization, professionalism, and overall knowledge of wedding planning/coordinating. We left that meeting feeling very relieved. 
Since that time, Sylvia continued to be amazing! She was always (promptly!) available to answer my many questions/concerns with planning and was always available to let us into the venue for whatever the reason we had (Even during weekends and evenings!). The month of our wedding and our wedding day went so smoothly because of Sylvia. She was great about keeping our "flow" going and worked closely with all our vendors. She was available all day and night of our wedding day, making sure things continued to go great. The Scarritt bartenders and security staff were also great. I had multiple guest tell me how nice everyone at the venue was. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect. Also, post wedding, Sylvia continued to make my life easier. We misplaced our cake stand that was to be returned to our cake vendor the following week. My husband and I left for Mexico, 2 days after the wedding, prior to tracking it down. Without asking, Sylvia went above and beyond to track down our cake stand (that accidentally got picked up by another vendor) and then returned the stand to our cake vendor so we would not be charged a fee!
Again, I am so thankful for Sylvia and so happy we chose The Scarritt for our big day. Highly recommended!!

This building is quite beautiful with it's historic architecture...however, I would caution anyone who is planning to book an event there. We were very disappointed with the management and staff for our daughter's wedding. From the beginning finding out their A/C was not working in the ballroom or our suites.  Then entering our suites to find dirty dishes and dirty mop head in sink...to no towels, no working TV and a ballroom floor not mopped. I personally had to clean and my husband had another expense to buy towels and supplies for both suites.  Our decorator and her husband not only decorated but stayed on later to mop ballroom floor, move tables and chairs and coordinate with our other vendors....the job we paid Scarritt to do. Where were they??  While trying to address these items with management with phone conversations, emails and written letter....their written reply:  They acknowledged the problem with their cleaning staff and A/C but felt they owe us nothing because we were mean to their staff!!!  You bet we were angry that weekend...while they had been paid in full and we walk into this situation having the extra expense of supplies and paying our decorator extra for a job that was to be done by Scarritt. Our advice is use Extreme caution if planning an event at this venue!

I attended two weddings here-one in June and one last month.  As much as I hate saying negative things about a historic building, I will hopefully help future brides and grooms not make a mistake in choosing this as their venue.  The Scaritt Building is beautiful and has incredible staff.  Unfortunately that cannot make up for some inherent flaws in the building. The 11th floor ballroom makes a terrible wedding setting.  The acoustics are awful, and the big pillars in the middle of the space block out many views of the altar.  The reception space is again beautiful, but the acoustics are terrible.  I could not hear any of the toasts or comments made at either wedding reception.  It is a big open space and just kind of "eats" the microphone talk.  On the other hand it was very loud at both dinners, because of the large amount of flat walls and windows for sound to bounce off of.  I wouldn't dare say anything to either couple, but I feel badly knowing that this space wasn't that pleasing for guests.

Beautiful building, but needs some renovating.  Not all the restrooms stalls were working.  The place is perfect for a smaller gathering.
