    Our Wedding Day

    I’d rate over 5 stars if I could! Takk house is absolutely amazing and Heidi made our wedding day so perfect. The space itself is absolutely gorgeous and so thoughtfully put together. It really speaks for itself. I cannot tell you how many people told us that it was the most beautiful and fun wedding they had ever attended. Heidi was so attentive to us and worked with us closely to make sure everything was perfect. She really understood our vision and did everything she could to make it a reality. It was such an amazing feeling to know I didn’t have to worry about anything on my wedding day. I cannot recommend the space, the food, and especially the people more!

    “It Was all a dream!”

    My now wife and I had our wedding at Takk in ‘23 and could not be happier with how everything went! From our first initial meetings we knew we were in good hands. Having never been through this before, we initially felt overwhelmed about planning but after selecting Takk and working with Heidi, so much was taken off our plate and we were given clear guidance on timelines, expectations and deadlines in ways that was professional, gave us confidence and made the ENTIRE process fun. Choosing Takk made the process something we were able to bond over and enjoy, not stress about. Takk is a beautiful space with so much character and the same is true of the city of Troy. Heidi’s team is so creative and had a ton of options and ideas on design and logistics that made everything unique to us, flow well and stay within our budget. 10/10, no notes! Oh and the food is incredible too!

    Best Day of Our Lives!

    Working with Heidi and her team at Takk House was the most amazing experience. Knowing that they had almost everything handled made our wedding, typically one of the most stressful things in life, a breeze. Not only did they exceed our expectations, they literally blew us and our family away. I could not have imagined our wedding with any other venue.

    Amazing!

    The Takk house, Heidi and her team were an absolute DREAM! If you're looking for a venue with vintage feels, great and I mean GREAT design and amazing food look no further.
    Their package deal is absolutely the way to go. Do yourself a favor and add on Franklin Alley Social Club-- your guests will go nuts!

    Better than we could have hoped for

    Takk House was simply amazing from start to finish. We looked at a great deal of venues in the capital region and Hudson Valley and knew immediately once we visited Takk that it was perfect for our wedding. The space itself is wonderfully unique which we both loved as opposed to the standard catering hall etc. Next, we felt at ease immediately with the owner Heidi. Her suggestions and professionalism took away a lot of the typical wedding stress.

    We also cannot say enough about the amazing team she has put together. Our day of coordinator Andrea was much more than just day of. Her communication with our vendors, professionalism and friendliness was a huge factor in the success of the day. The same can be said of her assistant Hayley, both were a joy to work with. Sarah (florals) and Julie (design) took our suggestions and along with their professional experience were able to create the most gorgeous atmosphere for us along with our guests. We also elected to use Takk for our catering and of course they too were amazing. We received numerous compliments on the food, both appetizers and mains.

    We wanted to thank and recommend Takk house and their phenomenal team to everyone, they were fantastic!

    The best wedding venue and staff ever.

    We could not speak any more highly of the incredible team at Takk House. Andrea was an absolute pleasure to work with throughout the entire planning process. She connected us with some incredible vendors that fit within our budget and each exceeded our expectations. Andrea’s organization and time-management skills made for a flawless wedding day from start to finish. Julie and Sarah, who handled the design and florals respectively, executed our vision perfectly. They were both incredibly collaborative and very enthusiastic about our ideas. They also did a great job of seamlessly integrating our own décor pieces into the space and paired them well with the venues own pieces. The space itself is so unique and all of the rooms are impeccably decorated. The karaoke room downstairs in the Franklin Alley Social Club was a huge hit with our guests following the reception. We used Takk House’s own catering service for our reception. All of the food we had was delicious and their catering team was extremely flexible in working with us to create our menu. Takk House is an absolutely beautiful and unique venue with an experienced and dedicated staff that helped us plan our ideal wedding!

    Best day of our lives!

    The first moment my husband and I toured Takk house we knew it was the venue. The building is gorgeous, timeless, and the exact vision we had for our wedding. We chose to go with the all inclusive wedding package, which took care of so many details that would otherwise be stressful.

    Our wedding planner/coordinator Andrea is simply amazing. She was so easy to work with and took so much stress off of us, which actually let us enjoy the planning. She was there for us every step of the way and we’re forever grateful for her hard work and dedication throughout the process.

    Sarah the in house florist is unbelievably talented, I honestly could’ve just given her our colors and let her take the reigns. Sarah’s way of bringing a vision to life is breathtaking.

    Julie the in house designer was also a dream to work with! She executed our vision above and beyond and even suggested ideas we went with that were stunning!

    After all of the planning our wedding day came, and what a fairy tale it was. My husband and I, our families and friends are just speechless at how magical it was. The day from the very beginning to end was perfect. The timeline Andrea put together for us went smoothly. Her and her assistant Hayley were on top of everything, and also had anything you could think of on them. Shout out to the aprons with scissors, tissues, and anything else you would never think of needing during the getting ready process!

    We also did a first look on the roof top. I will remember that moment forever, it was so magical and breath taking up there. The private moment we got to share together really made us feel on top of the world.

    Now to the good part, the food! The in house catering meadowlark was perfection! There were so many options for those who had special dietary restrictions but also so many options for those who don’t. Everything, and I mean everything was delicious.

    The way the Takk house team comes together for your big day is beautiful. You can tell that every single one of them loves what they do and will go above and beyond to make your day special. We can never thank them enough for such a perfect day!!

    Wonderful!

    Takk House was wonderful! I have so supported throughout this whole process! Andrea and the other folks at Takk work so hard to make sure your event runs smoothly.
    They ensure that every base is covered. It is a beautiful venue with many opportunities for great pictures.. 10/10!

    I was worried about guest parking, but didn’t hear any complaints!

    Quirky, customizable charm

    We love this venue! We got so many compliments on it as well. The biggest thing for choosing the Takk House for our wedding is that they don’t tell you how to do your wedding. They ask what you want to do and then accommodate you. They have a wonderful online system to keep all the messages and information about your event in one place (including a seating chart app) which made the planning process so much easier. They have great connections with vendors in the community making the day-of process go smoothly.

    The whole venue is eclectically decorated to have character and style. We were able to take first-look pictures on the roof which was just gorgeous. Heidi and Frank are laid back, but also very responsive and reliable.

    *One note to couples, they DO have linens. There is a place or two on their website that says otherwise, but they have them!

    Getting married at the Takk House was the best decision that we could've made! There were no restrictions on vendors, and it was already beautifully decorated, so there was very little we actually needed to do. Heidi and Frank were amazing in helping to guide us through the whole insane process of planning a wedding - from helping us find vendors when we were in a bind, to making suggestions on what we could do and how to put some personal little touches, etc. They were so flexible with us and really helped to pull the whole event together. They even let us bring our little pup as part of our ceremony!

    There is a gorgeous getting ready area that we used (and a sweet little man cave downstairs for the guys), and we were able to get some really beautiful photos. We had about 90 guests or so altogether, and we fit comfortably in the reception area downstairs and the bar.

    The Takk House is definitely a hidden gem in the heart of Downtown Troy. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone looking to host an event!

    My fiancé and I stumbled upon the Takk House when we attended a wedding expo there, and as we were walking through we talked about how unique the space was. Then we found out that they host weddings there and were SO excited!! We talked to Heidi and Frank for a while and ended up scheduling a meeting to come back. When we did, we knew it was the right place for us because we wanted something unique and nontraditional. Not only is the space amazing and beautifully decorated, but it was the cheapest option we had looked at AND the most flexible with respect to vendors and decorations– Heidi and Frank are okay with just about anything because they sincerely want to help your wedding vision come to life. We also used their BEAUTIFUL farm tables which we and our guests loved! Throughout the night and in the weeks afterwards, our guests told us how much they loved the venue because it was so unique and unlike any venue they’ve been to, which is exactly what we wanted!! If you want a wedding venue that is beautiful, different, flexible, and affordable, the Takk House is ABSOLUTELY the way to go!

    LOVED the Takk House! The venue is beautiful, filled with charm and elegance. The owners, Frank and Heidi, were both wonderful people to work with. They listened to what we wanted, and helped make everything come to life! Their care and help on the day of the wedding was amazing, and I am so grateful for them!

    What advice would I give couples who are picking a venue? Pick the Takk House!! Heidi and Frank are the best, always responsive and made things super easy from the start. Heidi has done an amazing job decorating the space, and you won't regret your decision to get married in their super unique and special space!

    If you're looking to personalize your event while still having support and suggestions, this is your place. We were allowed the flexibility to make our wedding day our own (with our choice of vendors, no set list) while still having access to the ease of a venue that takes care of it all for you. I wanted to be more hands on, so this was the perfect blend for me to be able to design my own show and creating a team to make the day-of move the way it needed. Heidi and Frank were always responsive and able to give suggestions when we needed some advice, assisted with the vendors the day of the event and shared their own experiences with us as a show of support. The day of was fantastic, the space was amazing to be able to move around in and provided our guests with the ability to be all in the party or step away for a quiet chat. Takk House would be my choice again in an instant!

    My now husband and I LOVED working with Heidi and her husband at Takk House!! We were married in September of 2016 and were so happy with Takk House that I recommended them to my recently engaged sister. They were so great at working with us and so straight forward, which were things I had stressed about while beginning planning. The space is so beautiful and unique, I love looking our pictures from the day so much.

    Our initial search for vendors was full of challenges: unhelpful websites, outdated spaces, expensive packages, little flexibility with outside vendors, or spaces that were totally DIY (from bathrooms to heating). Then we found Takk House. We visited and booked the space in the same day. Since then working with Frank and Heidi has been a ton of fun. They were incredibly accommodating, said yes to a couple of crazy ideas, and had fun with us throughout our planning process. Plus, they have great relationships with so many vendors in Troy that it made our planning extra easy.

    Since our wedding I've received so many compliments about the venue. Despite being asked to walk to the third floor for the ceremony, people loved the separate bar area, appreciated the beauty of the space, and there are several pictures of guests with Uncle Sam! Choosing Takk House as our venue was one of the best choices we made; it allowed us to be creative with our wedding while also enjoying the set up, coordination, and clean up of a traditional wedding venue. We highly recommend Takk House and would be happy to work with Heidi and Frank again.

    Would you like a wedding venue that will become such a part of you that you will feel like you are home? The Takk House in Troy, New York is such a venue. This is a beautiful space that can be customized to express your unique feelings and tastes. Heidi and Frank, owners of the venue, were helpful and accommodating beyond expectations. Our daughter's wedding was a huge success!

    This is the perfect venue for a couple looking to break out of the stock wedding venue mold. Frank and Heidi are wonderful to work with, and really went above and beyond for us. We were happy to work with them, and the space is stunning. Highly recommend.
