We were searching for a wedding venue that would reflect our artistic backgrounds, so AXIS Pioneer Square was the perfect match for us! I had walked under the tall ceilings and beautiful brick arches of this space on numerous occasions while exploring the First Thursday art walks, so when I found out that it was a wedding venue as well as an art gallery, I knew it was the one. The location in the historic heart of Seattle would be the ideal place to gather our families visiting from California and Ohio to give them an authentic experience of the city where we fell in love. Melissa and Erin were wonderful! They encouraged us to embrace the versatility of the venue and helped us envision the possibilities for customizing the layout to make our event express our creative personal styles. I planned to hang up my own paintings as well as paintings from the artists on both sides of our families. They were flexible and open-minded when helping us brainstorm locations that would work for installing a tension spinning pole so that we could make our first dance performance memorable. As an electronic musician, John loved that music didn’t have to stop until 2am and we could wrap up the night with an amazing dance party! Having access to the quaint alley abutting the venue as an outdoor space for guests to take in the night air when they needed a break from the dance floor was also a great perk. We both have large families that love to celebrate, so the venue’s capacity was a key selling point, and so was the ability to purchase our own alcohol to supply for the event! If you’re looking for an iconic wedding venue with a professional team and an artistic flair, I highly recommend AXIS!

Amazing art gallery and event space! After going to a few Pioneer Square Art walks you get to see just how many galleries and spaces are open. But something at AXIS makes it a bit of a hub and there is always something interesting going on. partly because it is a huge, well lit, rustic meets modern space all by its own. Add the art, people, and the night life and it is a good time. Check it out every first Thursday of the month.
My husband & I got married last October (2019), and it was simply the best and most incredible day. Axis Pioneer Square made this happen! We could not be more satisfied with Melissa & Erin - professional, organized, thoughtful, and extremely customer-service oriented. Not to mention the perfect city wedding venue: exposed brick, high ceilings, and Pioneer Square - WHAT A DREAM. Even my husband was swooning at the look of the venue. We have recommended the Axis team to whomever comes our way and we are forever grateful for the role they played in our wedding day. If you are looking for a dependable team in a beautiful setting, these are your gals and this is your venue. Thank you, Melissa & Erin! Maria & Prentice
We had our wedding at Axis and had an amazing experience working with their staff! Erin is absolutely wonderful. We booked way ahead of time, and Erin remained diligent in responding to all of our questions throughout the entire process. We felt like she really cared and took the time to make our day special. After our initial meeting, we ran into her at the Seattle Bridal Show and she recognized us immediately and came over to chat and ask us how we were. We thought that was really nice considering she had only met us in person once. Our guests loved the venue, everyone commented on how cozy and warm it felt. The brick walls, arches, antique floors, and the up-lighting are gorgeous. We felt like we really didn't even need to decorate. I also loved that we could nail things directly into the wall. I did several DIY pieces, so that was really helpful! Right before our wedding they opened the second venue space. In case you are worried about noise, don't be. We didn't even notice that there was another event going on. We also had an eight piece jazz band, and to my knowledge no one complained about noise! [All photos credit Tonie Christine Photography]
Party of 8 on the weekend. Came in at opening on Saturday. Only a 15 minute wait. Were able to all race together. Good job, courteous patient staff.
