Wedding Date 29-05-2022
I had so many compliments from my guest all night about this venue! Everyone absolutely loved the history and look! It was an absolutely pleasure working with Linda and Emma. They were amazing and so helpful!

Long story short, had wedding cards stolen when I thought they’d be secure in the provided locked mailbox. It was super heart breaking. The full story is on Google reviews. Overall a handful of cards that we know of, (likely more that we don’t know of) came up missing from the secure mailbox and it’s been made clear that the owner doesn’t know who collected the cards at the end of the night after she said she would be the one but said she left in the middle of the reception to attend another event leaving no one in charge. Overall just heartbreaking and awkward and the only reason I’m leaving a negative review because it shouldn’t have happened to me, and it shouldn’t happen to anyone else.Had the cards been left out on a table I would have taken full responsibility for them missing but the mailbox was supposed to be safe. I’m out at the very least $600 and really sad to have those sentiments in the cards lost.Jonz catering is their exclusive catering which I definitely recommend understanding their price points per person before booking. The food was amazing but very expensive per person compared to western washington. Disappointed no one got seconds and we didn’t get any to take home as it was swiftly cleaned up and disappeared.Really pretty venue that’s mostly decorated which made it easy. Only brought centerpieces and arch decor and a few other items. Great spaces for some artsy photos and the owner let us tour the venue multiple times during our planning. I would book again but absolutely wouldn’t book without a coordinator or trusted family member to be in charge of gifts. Or perhaps do the wedding insurance rider to insure wedding gifts.

As a wedding DJ I can say the press room is not only a venue but an experience. The owner clearly cares about the space and the client experience. Great space for a dance floor and photo booth. Plenty of bars around the are for afterparty! Dariushttps://www.grooveonhydestreet.com/

The press room is a wonderfully eclectic venue! Linda was very communicative during the whole process and everything was discussed up front. She made sure the whole process went smoothly without a hitch. Her attention to detail and preparation was spot on and it made for a comfortable wedding environment. There are a couple of caveats that need to be considered when looking at The Press Room for a venue. First was parking - there is available free parking but because it is in downtown Tacoma, it is slim pickings sometimes. The parking companies to rent out a parking lot are terrible communicators and they could not verify that I had reserved a lot no matter how many times I sent messages. Second, Jonz Catering is the exclusive caterer for the venue. The menu is all online. If food is a sticking point for you then you must reach out to Linda as soon as the new year starts or you will miss the tasting opportunity. Neither one of these items were deal breakers for us. We found adequate parking and the menu was changed often to cater to allergens that we had in the guest list. The allergy list had kind of made our food decisions for us. Regardless, we were pleasantly surprised by the spread and all of our guests enjoyed it. The venue includes just about everything one would require for hosting a party. The only items we needed to bring were decorations for the archway (which was provided), centerpieces, and photo booth. Finally, if you are getting married here, they also a little ceremony where the venue gives you one of the old keys to the venue, which was previously the Tacoma Tribune printing press, and have the bride and groom tie the key to the wall along with the other couples whom were wed there. One other thought. The venue is dog friendly!We absolutely loved the venue and we would choose Linda and The Press Room again if we had to do it all over again.
