The Lytle Auditorium is the second chapter in our collection of intentionally designed spaces—family-owned and built around creativity, connection, and meaningful gatherings
Principally a natural-light photography studio, the space was thoughtfully adapted for intimate weddings and events of up to 96 guests
We offer flexible vendor options and personal guidance throughout the planning process with a focus on partnering with local creatives, entrepreneurs, and small business owners where possible—keeping partnerships rooted in our surrounding community
With two main studios and over 3,000 square feet of divisible space, The Auditorium is a light-filled, minimalist venue designed for flexibility.
Filled with natural light, greenery, and clean architectural lines, the space is designed to feel open and adaptable for weddings, ceremonies, showers, rehearsal dinners, engagement parties, professional events, performances, fundraisers, workshops, and more.

HOW DOES BYOB WORK? If you opt for BYOB then you will work directly with your caterer on how much booze to buy. Your caterer will supply the mixer package, plus ice, garnishes and a licensed bartender. All of our caterers also offer full bar packages. BYOB is merely an option.
CAN I BRING IN A HOMEMADE APPETIZER OR DESSERT? This is considered on a case by case basis but the answer is typically no. Caterers are the ones handling and serving the food so for liability reasons, they can't handle and serve food that was not prepared by them.
If you have a talented friend or family member who wants to make your wedding cake or cupcakes, this is usually approved by the caterers.
CAN I HAVE A LIVE BAND? Absolutely!
CAN MY FRIEND/COUSIN/NEIGHBOR BE MY DJ/PHOTOGRAPHER/VIDEOGRAPHER? Yes! If your friend/cousin/neighbor is able to provide us with a COI prior to the event date.
WHAT IS INCLUDED IN THE FULL RENTAL PRICE? 12 tables, 96 chairs, dimmable lighting, all greenery, shelf decor, anything listed here we didn't already mention and an onsite event manager who will act as a "day of" contact for you and your vendors. The onsite event manager is there from the morning of your event all the way until the clean up is complete. They will accept your deliveries, manage your vendors and monitor your timeline. The rental price includes all taxes and fees.
CAN I SMOKE IN THE COURTYARD? Nope. It's against Village ordinance.
CAN I HAVE A SPARKLER EXIT? No. Out of respect for our neighbors we ask that guests quietly exit the premise following events.
DO YOU HAVE ANY DECOR RULES? Yes we do!
Glitter, confetti, fake flower petals, balloon releases...pretty much anything that ultimately just turns into litter is no go.
All candles must be flameless (battery powered) and if you need to hang something on an interior walls, we ask that you bring command hooks or use painters tape.
If you're unsure about a decor item, just ask us.
HOW LATE CAN MY EVENT GO? Due to local noise ordinance, events must end at 11:00pm on Fridays/Saturdays + 10:00pm on Sundays. The bar will close 15 minutes prior to event end time.
We are very respectful of our neighbors and we ask that guests depart in a quiet manner. From four blocks down to a 1/2 mile away, there are plenty of great places to schedule a private after party. If you need some suggestions just let us know.
DO YOU OFFER PARKING? Depending on the size of your event, ample parking is available in our adjacent lot. For larger gatherings, The Lytle Auditorium has secured overflow parking and can recommend local valet options if desired.
ARE YOU WHEELCHAIR ACCESSIBLE? Yes! Our events are all held on the ground floor
