The Claymore

Though it’s the middle of winter, the school year is more than half over which means we’re looking ahead to open house season!

Last year we had several open houses, including this one for Holden! Lovely people 😍

Ahhh, the loft…

It’s a hidden gem, people tell us.

You look at the Claymore building itself and most people don’t realize there’s an open concept, 2,800 sq ft apartment with a chef’s kitchen, 3 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms on the second floor above the event space!

We’ve had birthday dinner parties, showers, family reunions, wellness retreats, photo shoots,
bachelor/bachelorette weekends, friends weekends, you name it.

Getting married? The loft is included in a few of our wedding packages - whether you want the space for the day to get ready, or a weekend stay with friends and family that includes rehearsal and Sunday brunch!

It’s in one of the best locations in town- walking distance to local favorites like
.speakeasy and

Availability now in the off season and next year!

What do you like most about the loft space? Let us know!

As the air becomes crisper, and we’re looking at winter (we know it may be a state crime to say it, but bear with us) we’re immediately reminded of Drew and Lexi’s iconic winter wedding at the Clay in December 2024.

This amazing and kind couple made a statement of a winter wedding, and oh, how much we enjoyed seeing their ideas come alive at the Claymore!

This magical day started off with a ceremony in the snow - OUTSIDE in December - complete with Christmas trees and blue plaid blankets. For reception they took her vision of a sultry, wintery vibe and it showed through subtle but beautiful hints of Christmas, while still remaining very much a wedding. It was winter perfection.

They showed all of us how underrated a winter wedding can be. Who says weddings are only for Spring, Summer and Fall?

So, who’s up for Winter? We have dates free this winter at a discounted rate, no less! Reach out to us for more information and to see our space. Let’s romanticize winter!

As the wedding season starts to wind down - we’re looking ahead for the holiday season!

The Claymore is a beautiful space to host your company or family holiday party! We have plenty of tables and chairs that are included, plus our own in house bar service.

Reach out today for more information, or to schedule a showing to book your holiday party!

Hope everyone is enjoying this BEAUTIFUL Fall!

✨Tori & Jared ✨
10-5-2024

As you can see in the photos, Tori and Jared’s love for each other is contagious. You can tell they are truly best friends.

Their wedding was a collection of personal details that took a year to collect. Literally! Tori and Jared collected vintage dishes and mugs in the time leading up to their wedding, and guests got to choose a mug from their “mug tree” to take home in honor and remembrance of this day. How touching is that?

From vintage mugs to customized cocktails in honor of their two precious French bulldogs, Tori and Jared’s wedding was as thoughtful and personalized as it gets and we’re so honored they chose the Claymore.

We can only hope to cross paths with them again ❤️❤️

Are you wanting something different for your wedding?

Something unique, something old mixed in with a little new. Something elegant, but edgy. Something out of the ordinary..

Look no further. We’ve got a hidden courtyard fit for a ceremony that you can make completely your own.

Almost everyone who walks back to our courtyard exclaims “I had no idea this was here!” It really is hidden from view on our street. A secret courtyard!

Make it your own today! We have weekends available this fall and winter, and now booking for 2026!
