Bright event space with chandeliers for bridal and baby showers at The Chestnut Hall

Pretty enough to skip
the extra décor.

Daytime is when The Chestnut Hall shows off. Natural light pours through walls of windows, catches the crystal chandeliers, and makes every mimosa tower, dessert table, and gift display look like it was styled for a magazine.

The open floor plan sets up exactly how you want it — rounds for a seated brunch, high-top tables for mingling, a long banquet table for gifts and games. Gold Chiavari chairs and all the tables are included, with setup and breakdown handled before you arrive.

Bring your favorite caterer, a dessert board, or a brunch spread — the open vendor policy and full prep kitchen welcome them all — and let guests wander onto the private balcony between rounds of games.

All-Day Light

A second-floor perch with big windows means bright, natural-light photos — the kind shower hosts (and grandmothers-to-be) treasure.

Included Setup

Tables, gold Chiavari chairs, setup, and breakdown come with every rental — arrive with the centerpieces, leave with the memories.

Comfortable Access

Elevator and stair access with full ADA accessibility means every guest — from great-grandma to the guest of honor — arrives with ease.

Shower FAQs

Questions, answered.

How long of a rental do I need for a shower?

Most showers and brunches fit beautifully in a five-hour rental — enough time for styling, the event itself, and cleanup. Five-hour rentals are $3,000 Monday–Thursday and $3,500 on Friday and Sunday.

How many shower guests can the venue hold?

The space seats up to 100 guests and hosts up to 120 standing, but it arranges just as gracefully for an intimate shower of 25–50.

Can we bring our own food and desserts?

Yes — The Chestnut Hall has an open vendor policy, so your caterer, brunch spread, or dessert vendor is welcome, supported by a full prep kitchen and a large commercial ice machine. Vendors carry standard licensing and insurance.

Is the venue easy for older guests to reach?

Yes. The second-floor venue has both elevator and stair access, is fully ADA accessible, and two parking garages sit within a short walk.

Shower them
with love.
