We love hosting and attending all types of events at libraries they bring a sense of grandeur to any event. Libraries are filled with history and are typically located in the heart of the city or community. They create a gorgeous backdrop for photos, often have both indoor and outdoor space available, and overall are architectural wonders with each new room offering a new design style. Plus they are home to art, and of course books.
Here are our favorite EventUp libraries where you can host your next corporate function or plan an over-the-top wedding.
