Ceremony, reception, catering, full bar, and DJ service. All in one historic venue.
Your wedding day should be a beautiful celebration, from guest arrival until you depart as newlyweds. In between, so much needs to happen—dinner, dancing, traditions such as announcements, toasts, cake cutting, and tossing the bouquet and garter. Add in the ceremony, with bridesmaids and groomsmen, flower girls and ring bearers, and you have a very full plate. Months of planning lead up to long days of preparation and a few frenzied final hours. Shouldn’t part of this most memorable day be that you get to enjoy it with your new partner?
Let the Powerhouse Event Center give you the best wedding gift of all—the chance to savor the experience of your big day. From planning to execution, setup to cleanup, you can leave the details to our staff of experienced wedding and culinary professionals.
As the premier wedding destination in Boise, the Powerhouse offers an exclusive, all-in-one approach to special events: on-site catering with an Executive Chef on staff to custom-createx a menu for your needs: full bar service, for everything from champagne toasts to keg beer, wine, and your specialty hosted cocktail: and in-house DJ service, providing responsive live mixing that keeps the party going, and a professional presence on the microphone to coordinate with the Powerhouse staff the choreographed events of the evening.
At the center of all of this is the Powerhouse itself—the original power station for the city of Boise, designed in 1912 by the firm Tourtellotte and Hummel, who also drafted the Idaho State House and Egyptian Theater. One of the best features of the architecture today is the classic brickwork, which works well with both ornate and austere decorating styles. We offer the full, exclusive use of the facility—no double-bookings—with two floors, two full bars, elevated stage, and VIP room. From intimate ceremonies for seventy-five guests or elaborate receptions for three-hundred, the Powerhouse is here to make every moment memorable.
