Perfect Rehearsal Dinner Venue - An Eventective User from Vestavia Hills, AL

We recently hosted my son and DIL’s rehearsal dinner there, and we were all blown away. The venue was perfect. The atmosphere was comfortable, the food delicious, and the bartenders were super friendly and helpful. The planner, Kristen and the owner, Mike, were so accommodating and really helped make our special night even more special. Worth noting - they truly listened and handled my food allergy with understanding and worked diligently to ensure I ate safely and without concern. The night was flawless. HIGHLY recommend!!!!! I wish I could give them 10 stars!!

Nothing Short of Amazing - An Eventective User from Pelham, Alabama

The Wine Loft exceeded all of our expectations! We held our wedding reception at this location and we received rave reviews from all our guests. From the service, the food, the bar, and the venue itself was nothing short of amazing. Special thanks to Kristin Warren, events manager, for basically planning the whole reception. She helped make that day one of the most memorable days in our lives.

Perfect Reception Venue - An Eventective User from Birmingham, Al

The Wine Loft was amazing to work with and dream spot for our wedding reception. Kristin, the event manager was extremely knowledgeable and wonderful to work with. She was very accommodating and went to great lengths to make sure everything was taken care of and our day was perfect. The food was also amazing! I cannot recommend them enough!

The Perfect Venue - An Eventective User from Mobile, AL

The Wine Loft is a wonderful venue right in the heart of downtown Birmingham. It is a beautiful and spacious venue that not only can easily accommodate large parties and gatherings but can also cater to the specific needs of smaller groups as well. We [Briarwood Class of 2009] just had our 10 year reunion here at The Wine Loft on December 21, 2019. We had 70 people come to the reunion and not a single complaint was brought to my attention as lead organizer the night of our reunion. I can genuinely say that I believe everyone had a great time - seeing old friends and acquaintances, enjoying delicious hot food, and relaxing in the cozy ambiance that The Wine Loft offers. Kristin Warren was/is the consummate professional event coordinator and is an invaluable asset to The Wine Loft team. She was extremely patient and flexible with us as we made last minute changes and she went above and beyond the call of duty during our event to make sure that everyone was having a great time! Kristin was/is an absolute pleasure to work with and made my job as organizer so much easier. If you are having a large corporate party, a wedding reception, or hosting a class reunion, you would be remiss to not check out The Wine Loft as your first option.

Wonderful space for our event - An Eventective User from Birmingham

We held our son's engagement party here. The space was beautiful and the food was incredible! We received so many positive comments from our guests. Kristin was so easy to work with and was very responsive to our questions. I highly recommend The Wine Loft!

Perfect Rehearsal Dinner Venue - An Eventective User from Springfield, IL

We had my daughter's rehearsal dinner at the Wine Loft last week. It was a fabulous experience. Since we are out of town, it was difficult finding a venue that would work for our group and we had a relatively small group of about 40. Once I contacted Kristin at the Wine Loft, I knew this venue would be perfect. Kristin made the planning process so easy. She was always quick to respond to all of my questions and her recommendations were spot on. The venue has a classy, yet casual, ambience. It was conveniently located to our hotel, the food was delicious, and there were so many options of wine and beer for our guests. To top it off, it is also very affordable. I highly recommend this venue for any type of gathering you may have.

Surprise Birthday Gathering - An Eventective User from BIRMINGHAM, AL

Staff worked with me to provide the best experience at the wine loft for my girlfriend. They allowed my guest to arrive early & be seated in the reserved spot. Food was awesome & wine/ drinks were great. This is a spot that everyone must experience especially if you enjoy wine and the ambience of mood lighting.
