Oh I forgot the best part. It was family style dining so they had a lot of leftovers. Me and this other girl were the only ones from Philly left (our vendors flew in) so we got a shit ton of awesome food to take home. Seriously I could probably last a week on this haul.

Tis true. I have seen her without sunglasses, from across a boardroom table, whilst I was dropping knowledge. She watched, intently.

WEC watching at COTA today. Last chance to see Porsche and looking like the last time WEC will be at COTA for the foreseeable future.

Very loftish. We call it the Loft for short, Factory 12 Event Loft for long and yes, I know the website needs work. We are still very much in transition.

Industrial space, it's on the second floor of an old sewing factory built in the early 1900s in downtown Columbus. The space seats up to 500 and we have a few accessory spaces, as well. Can handle just about anything including weddings, corporate Cummins events, fundraising galas, etc. We have major plans for a rooftop garden along with painting the majority of the space white. (The wedding industry will see the end of deep dark industrial weddings in 2019, we'll be back to bright and airy.)

It was an event venue prior to us and management ran it into the ground, the space wasn't booking anymore because the communication reputation was so terrible. It has serious potential and we're excited to book it every weekend with weddings and fill the weekdays with corporate needs.

Pictures of it back in the day:
