For our wedding, we were looking for a place that portrayed both of our personalities and styles. When we first walked into FruitCraft, it was like, Yep, this is it! The food went above and beyond our expectations. We wanted something delicious and casual that all of our guests would enjoy, and the taco bar was a smash hit. The menu options were exactly what we were looking for, giving us the chance to add a personal touch to our special day. They not only got our vision but elevated it beyond what we thought was possible, making our day unforgettable but still within the budget. Our wedding day was pure magic, and we can't thank Anna and the team enough for making it so relaxed and unforgettable!

We chose FruitCraft because their catering team went above and beyond for us! There were a few Indian dishes that my family wanted, and they were able to deliver on it! This was not on the menu, but they truly accommodated us. Their efforts to include these dishes added such a personalized touch to our celebration. We knew if they could deliver on something like this, they would be able to give us the wedding we wanted. Their team was on top of everything the day of. We truly felt like we didn't have to worry about anything. From the DJ, florals, cake etc everything came together so well! Our guests kept complimenting the food, venue and drinks. We honestly can't imagine having had our big day anywhere else!

FruitCraft made our day beyond memorable ! - The stress-free, beautiful vibes, combined with their exceptional service, made our wedding an absolute dream. We found this venue on instagram and fell in love with all the greenery. When we saw it in person it was even better! The gorgeous farm tables won us over and the overall vibe is so down to earth and modern. We are also big cocktail fans and were impressed with their bar selections, their mule kept us on the dance floor all night. For our wedding they had cocktails but also ciders, seltzers and wines. They even special ordered my dadâs favorite craft beer which meant so much to me. They truly went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed for our wedding! We LOVED our wedding at FruitCraft - a huge shoutout to all the staff that accommodate all of our plans, we cant wait to visit on our anniversary <3

Still reminiscing about our magical day at FruitCraft! They have a love patio with picture-perfect tropical vibes that was the perfect romantic environment for our ceremony! We had 125 guests and were more than happy to find a venue that could fit all of our guests for both the ceremony and reception. We also loved the catering options and had chosen their gorgeous grazing charcuterie and mediterranean style chicken skewers which all of our guests loved. They even packed some for me and Michael to take home at the end of the night which was the sweetest thing and was sooo perfect to enjoy back at our hotel!Anna and her staff went out of their way to make our vision come true, their attention to detail made the whole process stress-free. They truly made our day unforgettable!

FruitCraft was an absolute dream venue for our wedding! The venue's attention to detail, especially with the hanging plants and beautiful decor, made for countless picture-perfect moments. The rustic charm of the custom wood farm-style tables exceeded our expectations and added such warmth to the ambiance. What truly set FruitCraft apart was their exceptional assistance with every aspect, from photography recommendations to seamless coordination. With onsite food and drinks available, it alleviated so much stress from our planning process. Their team not only understood our vision but elevated it beyond imagination, making our day truly unforgettable within our budget. Their organization, support, and invaluable suggestions made everything flow effortlessly. We are immensely grateful to the entire FruitCraft team for making our special day so relaxed and magical!

Our wedding at FruitCraft was an absolute fairytale come to life! From the moment we stepped foot into the venue, we were captivated by its charm. The team, led by Anna, went above and beyond to ensure every detail was executed flawlessly. Their patience and attentiveness made the planning process a joy. The day itself was pure magicâthe food was divine, offering an array of options that delighted all our guests, especially the gluten-free selections that catered perfectly to Liam's dietary needs. FruitCraft's recommendations for the photographer and live band were superb, elevating the ambiance and capturing every heartfelt moment. The venue's aesthetic, blending modern elegance with a touch of rustic charm, perfectly mirrored our vision. The newly added bridal suite was a sanctuary, allowing for serene moments with loved ones before the festivities commenced. FruitCraft exceeded our expectations in every way, creating the most enchanting backdrop for our special day. 10/10 would recommend!

One of the things that made us choose Fruitcraft is because of its exterior ceremony space and the beautiful interiors for our wedding reception. The light on both sides was so romantic! The hanging plants in every space are just gorgeous. We couldn't resist taking tons of photos everywhere.We fell in love with their custom wood farm-style tables (seriously, better than we imagined) and the overall feeling of the place! The best part was that they helped me with the details from photography to coordination. Having food and drinks onsite was a game-changer. We only had to worry about flowers and a DJ. Even with our budget, their team took our vision and made it the best day ever for us! They kept things organized, provided what we needed, and gave great recommendations which was super helpful. I loved how easygoing everything was for our most special day, thanks to the FruitCraft team!

We had the most unforgettable wedding day at FruitCraft, and I cannot express how grateful we are for their exceptional service. Anna and her staff were always a step ahead of our needs. Their patience and accommodation were a true blessing, allowing us to move forward with our plans seamlessly. The night was a dream come true, with everything flowing stress-free. The food was not only delicious but exceeded our expectations, the menu had many options, even vegan for my husband Daniel! The recommendations for the florist and DJ were spot-on, adding a perfect and personalized touch to our special day. The decoration and venue overall really combined a minimalist-chic vibe that went perfectly with the mood that we were looking for. The new bridal suite was a fantastic addition, and I highly recommend including it in your wedding plans, it was a nice space for intimate pictures with my Mom. FruitCraft truly made our day unforgettable, and we can't thank them enough!

We LOVED our wedding at Fruitcraft. I'd had my eye on the venue since before I was even engagedâI loved the lush plant interior meshed with the clean, modern aesthetic. I also loved how unique the bar offerings were. To my pleasant surprise, when the time came to actually plan our wedding, Fruitcraft was hands down the most affordable venue we considered. We ended up having a 50-person wedding in late March 2023 and we couldn't be happier.Alan was great to work with. In particular, we were impressed that he never tried to upsell us during the processâin fact, he tried to find ways to help us trim our budget while still getting what we wanted. That is so hard to come by in the wedding industry! Decor details: It is a gorgeous venue and you don't need much outside decor. Plants and lights everywhere. The only decor we had during the outdoor ceremony was a plant garland arch from the venue... it is so pretty and luscious out there that you don't need to spend money on flowers. For the interior during the reception, we had mini bouquets (fake) and LED votives. So easy to put together ahead of the ceremony. No need for outside vendors, in my opinion!Food and drink: both soooo good! We didn't do a food tasting ahead of time, so we were pleasantly surprised that the food was very tasty (we heard the same from our guests). We served the salmon and the pesto pasta, which we were able to make vegetarian. We also had a charcuterie appetizer and we heard from guests it was good (never got to taste it ourselves, haha). The drinks were obviously awesome and are one the main reasons we chose Fruitcraft. Our guests loved sampling the unique items on the menu.... the eau de vie cocktails were a hit, as was the pomegranate-cherry wine. The manager gave us a complimentary bottle on our way out :)Space details: We were able to use the bridal suite which had just been built.... it was so nice to have a place to freshen up, take a breath, etc, on our wedding day. Highly recommend that option!In closing, if you want a very elegant wedding for a very reasonable price in a very central location..... go to Fruitcraft! 10/10 would recommend!

We usually do not provide reviews, but in this case, it would be a complete disservice if we didnât take the time to recognize the exceptional service provided by Anna for our wedding at Fruitcraft. Our wedding took place in Oct 2022, so this review is certainly long overdue, and we couldnât wait any longer to let everyone know why Anna and Fruitcraft are the very best option for your next wedding. From the moment we reached out, the staff was attentive and we were immediately impressed on how open they were with our hectic schedule since we lived out of town (Seattle, WA). Once we toured the facility, we immediately fell in love with the simplistic dĂ©cor to the outdoor space (LOVE sign). We loved everything about this place, but the person who made our experience seamless was Anna. We cannot thank her enough for her professionalism, attention to detail and timeliness. Leading up to the event, she made sure the Bride was calm and available for any last-minute questions and concerns. Anna went out of her way to make us and our families feel welcomed (even when our families were not being the most cooperative). Once the special day arrived, I couldnât express how much we needed Anna. There were multiple hiccups on our end from forgetting the rings, the marriage license, officiant forgetting his speech and so many more. The guests wouldnât have known because Anna kept us all calm, cool and collected. We can honestly say this was the best day of our lives. Again, thank you so much Anna for all that you provided leading up to the wedding and of course the special day itself. We wouldnât have been able to keep it together without you.

This place was the hidden gem of our dreams! We weren't sure what to expect because we were planning our wedding from Colorado way before we moved to San Diego and were only going off of their website and the knot. We did a virtual tour with Alan and even through that we knew this was the venue for us. We toured the space a few months after when we were in town and we were so happy we booked FruitCraft! The major things that won us over was how beautiful the space was, friendly staff, good food and drinks at the tour and prompt responses from Alan. We are HUGE cocktail fans and fell in love with their unique cocktails especially the old fashioned and mule. As a distillery, FruitCraft makes their own cocktails/drinks which was such a fun addition to our day. Our family and friends are still raving about the drinks after the wedding! We wanted a place that we could just show up and enjoy the day and FruitCraft did just that for us! Their staff took care of everything and we couldn't be more grateful + it was such a good value! Anna was our coordinator and she handled our vendors through FruitCraft and made sure everything flowed smoothly for us throughout the night. She even took care of our family throughout the night which was such a special touch and allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our day! The bar and catering staff were also amazing to us! Thanks for making the start of our forever so special, we canât wait to visit when its open as a tasting room in the future <3

There aren't enough stars in the sky to let you know how amazing this place is. I highly recommend this venue. First, the food is incredibly delicious. Our guests kept telling us (even days after) how amazing the food was. we chose the vegan taco bar and the pulled pork sliders. Second, planning with them is simple and easy. Anna and Alan are communicative and accomodating. Third, the venue itself is GORGEOUS! My husband and I fell in love with the venue decor then we were sold once we tried the food. Once again, our guests kept complimenting how beautiful the venue was. The day of, the staff knew what they were doing and they were so attentive. Brandon was our lead and he really took care of us. Seeing that we were focused on our guests, he brought us our food, drinks, and desert. He also kept checking in to see if we needed anything.You won't regret booking this venue.

I had my wedding reception here and--wow!! What an incredible experience!!When selecting our venue, we met with Alan (the owner) who was really friendly and straightforward with information. Once we had our initial quote and paid the deposit, we worked with Anna (the event manager), who was wonderful every step of the way. There are of course a ton of little details that go into this type of event, but they really made it all come together and the day-of was fantastic. The weekend of our event was a hurricane (in San Diego lol), but they were super proactive about alternatives and options, and we ended up staying dry and it all went well. The staff was super friendly and helpful, and the food was delicious. We got tons of compliments on the venue/live-edge tables/gorgeous plants, food, and drinks from our guests. Aside from all the choices that go into wedding planning which are inherently stressful, they made it really easy by being all-inclusive.

JUST BOOK IT! My wife and I cannot say enough good things about the amazing experience we had working with Fruitcraft for our wedding. From the start and throughout the process Alan and Anna were so kind and made themselves available for us at all times. We had a million questions that they always took the time to answer each one of them. What we loved most is how close this venue was to being an \"all inclusive\". The fact that our package covered our ceremony, reception, food & drinks, and even decor made our wedding day a breeze, especially since we didn't have a coordinatator. Being that the venue is in Hillcrest, we worried a little about parking but none of our guests had any issues with parking at the DMV the day of. Our guests LOVED the food and drinks as well as how beautiful the venue was. Fruitcraft exceeded all of our expectations and made our wedding planning such a smooth process. If we had to get married again we'd 10000% book with Fruitcraft every single time!

We live in the neighborhood and have watched this place grow into an event venue. Itâs been our favorite place to hang out and we walked in on a random day just to see if we could see pricing of the space. Anna was there preparing for another event but gave us a quick walkthrough. The plants and just the overall vibe won us over. We ended up having our wedding here in August 2022 and I couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. It was so amazing to walk from our home to our wedding and have everything ready for us, especially all the food & drinks we used to love! Staff were pleasant and timely. We chose their team for bar, catering, glassware, DJ, photography, coordination and flowers, which were all reasonably priced. They did the set up and breakdown of everything they included in my package which actually gave us time to relax on our wedding day. Their team were always ready to help and my friends and family felt well taken care of. All of their vendors were personable and great at what they do. I would recommend getting Anna as a coordinator if you have lots of decorations or DIY. Our day was perfect!

My wife and I were so happy with the venue for our wedding on April 30, 2022. We wanted a simple but elegant location for our reception on April 30, 2020 and were all set to go, but with the pandemic , we had no choice but to postpone. The venue was able to accommodate us by allowing us to postpone for 2 years for a small fee. In the grand scheme of things, it could have cost us so much more at any other venue to get all the individual vendors and coordinate that all ourselves. It was less stressful to have it all in one place. Fruitcraft had the food, drinks, staff, DJ, and even photo booth. It had everything we were looking for and we, as well as our guests, had a blast. Anna, the event coordinator, was so attentive and kind. We were especially interested in the venue for the fact that our dog could be with us, as he was part of our wedding party, which was extremely important to us. The staff was nice and we loved the space. Everyone loved the food and drinks. We even had time to enjoy some of the food and drink ourselves! My only critique would be the separate charge for tea and coffee, which I donât think enough people had. There were also a lot of âa la carteâ charges that added up, ie. renting tables, decorations, cutting utensils for our own cake, etc. that I understand are done so for individual preference. We also only had 30 minutes to setup the few items we brought, which was thankfully minimal considering the short setup window. Other than that, we couldnât have asked for a better venue and space for our much anticipated, and long awaited, special day. Thank you again to Anna and the staff for making our day amazing and special.

FruitCraft is a stylish event space with delicious fruit wines and cocktails distilled in-house. When my then fiancĂ© and I toured FruitCraft, there were many reasons we instantly fell in love with FruitCraft for our wedding! When it came to first impressions, FruitCraft was an oasis of green within the arts district of Hillcrest: it was easy to mistake the sleek white building off University & Richmond with a garden, only to realize itâs the immenseness of fresh greenery along the walls of the FruitCraft venue. With so much wedding costs inevitably going towards flowers, our budget and vision agreed with the minimal decor required to enhance FruitCraftâs existing space; we invested in a few pops of color to highlight our wedding theme, but otherwise the venue is gorgeous and photogenic as-is. The FruitCraft team created a smooth and easy-to-plan event; we valued being able to spend more time on our friends & family and less time on strenuous event coordinating.The more we got to know Fruitcraft as a venue, the more we knew it was truly the perfect way to express our love for San Diego to our guests. Location is excellent: within easy walking distance of the Hillcrest Farmer's Market, the iconic Hillcrest Pride Flag, Forbes 2021 Best Brunch's Great Maple â FruitCraft offered a seamless way to introduce our guests to the quaint and eccentric style that we love about Hillcrest San Diego. I went to college in a small town, so for several of my guests, my wedding was their first time visiting Americaâs Finest City; it was hugely meaningful that I could impress them with FruitCraftâs central location. At the same time, many of my guests were anxious about parking in urban San Diego; luckily after business hours there was plenty of free parking at the DMV within 0.5mi of FruitCraft.Our dinner menu had something for everyone, while immersing our guests in Southern California cuisine. For our appetizers: a photogenic & varietal charcuterie board, a bright & fresh pesto pasta salad; for our main course â a chic taco bar that meat-lovers and vegetarians could both enjoy. We appreciated the flexibility of choosing from the FruitCraft dessert menu or bringing in from an outside dessert vendor; we opted for bringing in outside donuts, and it was super easy to set-up and serve to our guests.Between our engagement and now our marriage â each time my husband and I visited FruitCraft, it grew more comforting and emotional to see the plants grow with us â through all the trials and tribulations of the pandemic and then some! We will forever cherish celebrating our special day at FruitCraft, and would strongly recommend to anyone seeking a stylish garden in the heart of San Diego for their wedding venue!

Best day ever! My husband and I are so happy we chose FruitCraft for our wedding on 2.26.22. Both Alan and Anna were easy to work with and helped answer all of our planning questions leading up to the day. We held our ceremony at Balboa Park and our reception at FruitCraft. Our guests were in love with the space. FruitCraft's interior is magical in the evenings with the Edison lights, live greenery, glassware, high ceilings, and live edge wooden tables. Everyone was raving about the drinks! We chose the chicken skewers for the main course and paid extra to have a steak option as well as a vegan option and plated serving. My husband and I actually had time to enjoy and eat our food! It was so nice having the dessert and DJ included in our wedding package. DJ Marky was great and listened to our music preferences. We chose to have a small cake plus a cupcake tower, which was delicious! We highly recommend FruitCraft as a wedding venue and are looking forward to going back there on our anniversary to reminisce about our special day.

We had our ceremony & reception there for 90 guests.

We used all of their vendors which was super simple because Anna kept in contact with them for us. Anna was also there at the wedding and was always ready to help.

While our actual wedding day was beautiful and the food was great, there were MANY issues and concerns I had leading up and on the wedding day. The four emails I sent with questions took at minimum a 72+ hour response turnaround time. Anna, the venue coordinator, was curt via email and unwilling to compromise with my wedding planner, our mariachi band or our DJ.We were allotted 60 minutes of setup time, which according to wedding standards is unusually short. When my planner arrived, Anna denied her access to drop off items while they parked. Requesting to enter 15 minutes earlier, we were told would be a $500 addition, albeit the venue being empty as our was the only event on that day.Any inquiry or request was met with a rude response from Anna.We had a mariachi band for the cocktail hour- from 6-7pm. Anna wouldnât allow the band outdoors to play for our recession, and refused to open the garage door to add additional air flow. Her reasoning for this was a noise ordinance, however San Diegoâs noise ordinance begins at 10pm and in Hillcrest there is plenty of music to be heard outdoors. We had tequila favors which were near the exit and meant to be taken as guests left. Anna removed them, without notice, and began dumping out favors she deemed as âopenedâ. When asked about it, she lied to my face and claimed â I donât have time for thatâ. Annaâs decision to move the favors so guest wouldnât consume them during the reception was fine. However, this was expensive tequila and the disposal of the bottles was uncalled for and the lying indefensible.As I said the venue is gorgeous, thereâs no question about that. However Annaâs professionalism, demeanor, communication, and customer service were severely lacking. Working with Anna was largely disappointing and frustrating. Considering she is the only point person to work with, this was a huge downfall of our wedding experience.

What can we say about planning a covid wedding? We were engaged December 2020 and didn't mean to find our venue so quickly, but it was just perfect! Budget friendly with so many added bonuses. Unfortunately, our reschedule dates of August and December did not go as planned in 2021. Alan and Anna were there to help us pivot every step of the way. They were VERY CLEAR about the non-refundable policy they have, so we have no qualms with any of that. We knew what we had signed up for and it was fair. We saw it as layaway funds for a future celebration - and that's just what it turned out to be! They helped us reallocate our ceremony/larger guest count funds into the perfect belated reception event. The food is great (we had the taco bar), and the wine is so good! Our open bar set up didn't originally include their seasonal cranberry (which I love), but they were kind enough to add it on the menu anyway. I was elated and it was all I drank that day. Wearing white and risking drinking red - that's how you know the wine is good! The space is pretty much perfect as is. Couples pay tons of money for neon signs, lounge seating, photo walls, and florals/greenery, but this place already has it all! Not to mention the beautiful live edge tables that give it so much more warmth than a plain linen round table could. Their outdoor space is picture perfect for any event or photo shoot. We would highly recommend them for an event/wedding space in San Diego!

We felt so lucky to have booked Fruitcraft, because our wedding night was perfect. The venue was so beautiful that we only had to get a few decorations for the reception tables (garlands and candles).

We had our wedding here in September 2021 and it was perfect for us! The event space was so lovely and Alan was the most helpful vendor on the planet. He made all our in-person meetings leading up to the wedding so easy and wonderful. The venue is as beautiful in person as in photos. Everyone raved about the food and drinks. We appreciated that we were only paying for what we needed andused. There wasn't a fee to just have the space. The pricing was super amazing for the food quality you get, and the drinks were so unique! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a small, laid-back wedding.

BEST EVENT SPACE TEAM EVER! First, if you are going to have an intimate wedding, its the perfect space. Gorgeous and modern urban garden type of venue. Second, Alan and Anna were an awesome team to work with. They helped my husband and I feel so guided and stress free, we knew they would take care of us. You could tell the team just genuinely cared to make sure the wedding turned out great. Lastly but not the least, on the day of the wedding, they took care of small details we didn't even think of. For example, my husband is on the taller side, they made sure to lift the lighting a tad higher so there would no chance of hitting it. Food and drinks flowed elegantly without delay. Everything was on schedule and all of our guests had a great time! We were so glad that we had Alan and Anna on our team for our special day!

Jason and I hosted a small wedding reception at Fruit Craft in their outdoor space and we were completely blown away! We loved everything that was provided considering we planned the whole thing via email during the end of the pandemic. Before COVID came, we were fortunate to have a tasting and everything was very fun with natural wines and food without the pricey costs. Ana and Alan were very thorough with their communication and provided the best experience for all our guests. We hosted approximately 80 people and had nothing but great feedback from everyone. This is a perfect setting for small and intimate weddings in beautiful San Diego. Very happy with the outcome and would recommend 100%! :)

With the pandemic and our previous venue closing for good, my wife and I were forced to have a smaller celebration for our family and friends. We were looking for a venue that could do many things in house and we found Fruitcraft while doing a google search for micro weddings. My wife loved the venue itself since she loves plants, which are literally everywhere in this venue and made our photos look great. I have a sensitivity to alcohol but I still like to drink so I like that their drinks were made in house with good ingredients. They took care of the food, drinks, setup and we only had to worry about flowers and getting everyone there. We both loved that our guests felt taken care of by Anna and her staff and that everyone felt comfortable because of the extra sanitation steps they are taking for Covid. Since we already had lost money with our previous venue going out of business, it was great that Alan helped us piece together an affordable wedding that still felt great to us and our family. I definitely recommend checking them out if you're looking for something well priced and nice in the city.

This place is a gem, hidden or not. The greenery is why we looked into this venue, and the fun vibes and intimate space are why we chose it. The food and drink packages took that much more off of planning, and itâs a great deal, and super tasty to boot! As a COVID bride, circumstances are already difficult for everyone to work with. But Alan and Anna of Fruitcraft have been so responsive and helpful throughout all of the stress, back-up planning, and changes. I kept getting compliments throughout the whole night in the space. Theyâre pretty strict on time limitations, so having a good team to help with setup and breakdown might be a good idea (we DIYâd a lot, so a bit stressful).Fun, adorable, amazing.

He gave us time to make a decision to reschedule and even offered us multiple Saturdays as that was important to us. Alan was collaborative and responsive. Weâve continued to plan the day with Anna who has also been a big help with phone calls/video chat since we arenât able to physically go to the venue as much.

From the very beginning, the staff at FruitCraft were so welcoming and helpful. My husband and I were looking for somewhere that would take care of everything for us, for a reasonable price. We didnât care about the nitty gritty details, we just wanted somewhere beautiful and charming where we could celebrate with our family and friends. FruitCraft was the perfect place. We had our ceremony in the morning in their outdoor event space, and the reception in their newly renovated venue area. Anna made sure that both areas were perfectly set up for us and our guests, and the whole place was just beautiful and we didnât have to bring any decorations at all! The entire venue is filled with plants and lots of natural lighting, the drinks were delicious and refreshing, and the guests (and ourselves!) really enjoyed the taco bar. All of our pictures (both iPhone and professional pictures) turned out SO good with all the natural lighting, and it seemed like every corner of FruitCraft acted as a perfect backdrop. We wanted a string quartet to play at our ceremony, and FruitCraft was very accommodating and made sure they had their own space that worked well with the flow of the ceremony. We were also able to make our own playlist and plug in our computer into their built-in PA system for music throughout the reception. They provided microphones, a projector, set up/clean up, and everything we needed for our big day. Our wedding was the last wedding they had before the whole world shut down, and I really hope other couples can experience a perfect wedding day with FruitCraft when life goes back to normal!

I've been meaning to write this review for a while. We were planning on having a September wedding here and booked almost a year ago. The owner was extremely responsive at this time and we were so excited about having our wedding here, as the location is beautiful and the were undergoing several projects to make it even more beautiful. Around December we scheduled time to meet with him and taste the food. When we got there, there was not anything for us to try and we were in and out in about 10 minutes tops. We felt really rushed and as if the owner had other places to be - we left feeling a little uneasy about that and honestly, pretty bummed. Fast forward a few months and COVID closures began happening. We reached out to all of our vendors to see what our options were, as it was becoming likely that we would have to adjust our original plans. The owner did not come across as very understanding which was not something we can say about any other vendors we reached out to. This is such an unprecedented time and no one could have seen any of this coming. The owner outlined options for the wedding 1) Leave it as is and see if we can have the wedding as planned 2) Reschedule but pay in full as if the wedding was still happening in September 3) Cancel the wedding and lose the deposit and any other funds paid 4) Reschedule and move the payment schedule with an added $750 rescheduling fee. Aside from the cancellation option, these were not options outlined to use when we signed our contract. He was unwilling to work with us and honestly, it felt like he was profiting off a pandemic. We understand that it is a business and that it's tough for everyone right now but the way things were handled made us feel very uncomfortable moving forward with having our wedding at FruitCraft. We highly recommend giving things a second thought before booking this venue.

We had our wedding at FruitCraft, in the Fermentorium and Better Together bar. It was such a great event that we keep talking about it with friends and family a month and a half later. The venue was impecable and Anna went above and beyond to make sure our day-of wedding went on without any problems. After a rough start with FruitCraft (they had just started to book the venue for weddings, aside from their distillery business), mostly due to misunderstandings, lack of speedy communication, and a few ups-and-downs on the items we were initially offered, Anna and her team at FruitCraft delivered as promised! The food and drinks were on point. We chose the baked chicken with roasted veggies and potatoesâwhich everyone lovedâand some potato tacos for the vegetarian/vegan guests. For drinks, Anna suggested a few assorted items from their distillery options and we complemented her suggestions with a few drinks we had tried when we first visited the venue. To be honest, we booked the venue not only because of the location and great set-up, but also for the awesome drinks they serve. Our three main drinks were the cucumber martini, old-fashioned, and the harvest mule, plus a few other red and sparkling wines that were on point. Thank you FruitCraft and team for a great event that we will cherish forever.
