The Columns has always been my dream venue! The first time I went to a wedding there for a friends wedding and knew it’s where I wanted to get married. The columns and beauty of the building created a perfect back drop for our reception. Working with Joanna was so easy and helped make sure all of the details and vendors would have ease of access the day of.

The Columns was a perfect venue for our event. We were set on having a downtown reception, and the Columns was one of the few places that could host 300+ people comfortably without feeling cramped or crowded. We were a shocked at the sticker price initially, but decided it was worth it, especially because you can provide your own alcohol and licensed bartenders instead of paying an inflated per-drink price.Elizabeth and Joanna were wonderful to work with! The venue is absolutely gorgeous! Our guests loved the space! We had a beautiful wedding reception and would definitely recommend the Columns!

If you're looking for a reception location in downtown Memphis, look no further. We had our reception at the Columns and loved loved loved every minute of it! It is a GORGEOUS place on its own, so you can go as light or heavy on flowers and decor as you want. Carpet is a little worn, but once everything is in the room you will not notice it at all. There are SO many different things you can do with the space and hundreds of different ways to set everything up so it's almost guaranteed no two events will be the same. The uplighting on the Columns is so romantic, and can even be changed to match the colors of your wedding. \rWhile they do have \"preferred\" vendors, you are not forced to pick from a list when it comes to florist, caterer, etc, as long as each vendor meets the insurance requirements and such. Two blocks from Raifords (perfect after reception party!), a couple of blocks from Beale, and with several hotels in walking distance, you can't go wrong. Everyone LOVED it!\rSide note: The address is 1 Commerce Square, and the Columns is in the Iberia bank building on the corner of 2nd and Monroe - 40 S Main might be the address for the actual bank.

The Columns was more than anything I could have imagined. Even just walking into the room when we were trying to pick a venue, it was amazing, so when you add tables with linens, flowers and lighting, it is breathtaking. There is no venue like this in Memphis. Stacey Keene is WONDERFUL to work with. You are allowed to bring in basically whatever you want. I would encourage you to go and look at this venue, you will not be disappointed!!
