We’re in L🖤VE with our new mural!

Winter weddings can mean fewer photo ops due to lack of landscaping, but not at The Brightside! We have 4 murals and plenty of indoor photo ops too!

It’s on the backside of the building so don’t forget to show your photographer where it is. You can send them this link: https://www.thebrightsideweddings.com/photo-map

We’re up to 5 great murals now. Do you think we should keep adding more?

The Brightside has 3 great spots for your wedding ceremony: The Patio, the Upside Loft, and the Ballroom.

The nice thing is knowing that if you choose an outdoor ceremony, but weather doesn't cooperate, you have indoor backup options at the ready!
