One of the most common questions we get from couples exploring Bread & Chocolate is: which space should we choose? It's a great problem to have! Our three venue configurations offer something distinct, and the right answer depends entirely on your guest count, your vision, and how you want the day to feel.
Here's a practical breakdown to help you figure out which space fits your wedding best.
The Grand: For the Couple Who Wants It All
The Grand is our largest and most exclusive option. When you book The Grand, you're reserving the entire third floor of the Old Bag Factory, all 9,500 square feet of it, for your celebration. That means complete privacy and exclusivity. Just your guests, your day, and an entire historic building floor to fill however you'd like.
The Grand accommodates up to 290 guests and allows for a completely seamless flow: ceremony in one area, cocktail hour in another, dinner and dancing in a third. Your guests never have to leave the curated environment.
This option is ideal for couples who value our full-service hospitality and privacy above all else. We make your wedding day simple and luxurious.
Best for: 100–290 guests | Couples who want total privacy | All amenities included
The Grand
The Ballroom Suite: Classic Flow, Sophisticated Setting
The Ballroom Suite reserves two connected rooms on the west side of our floor. This layout was specifically designed for a seamless ceremony-to-reception transition: your ceremony takes place in the first room, and when it concludes, guests flow naturally into the second room for cocktails and dinner while the first room is reset.
With soaring ceilings, expansive windows, and original architectural details throughout, The Ballroom Suite delivers a sophisticated look that photographs beautifully at any time of year. It accommodates up to 200 guests.
Best for: Up to 200 guests | Classic ceremony-to-reception flow | Mid-range budgets
The Ballroom Suite
The Gallery: Intimate, Character-Rich, Unforgettable
If your guest list is on the smaller side, don't overlook The Gallery. This single room is anchored by original 1896 hardwood floors, exposed brick walls, timber beams, soft drapery, warm lighting, and a romantic chandelier. It's genuinely one of the most beautiful rooms we have.
The Gallery accommodates up to 130 guests. One thing to note: because it's a single-room space, your ceremony and reception will take place in the same area, with guests seated at their reception tables for the ceremony. For many couples, especially those planning intimate, relaxed celebrations, this actually feels more natural and connected than a traditional separate-room setup.
Best for: 50–130 guests | Intimate weddings | Couples who love character-rich spaces
