12/22/21 Brian and Michelle at Venue 132 were wonderful, super nice. We walked in on a Sunday while they were working on the place and told them of our need for a venue. Even though they weren’t officially open, they allowed us to be their first client. Even before their family holiday gathering. All of our guests complemented on how nice it is. From the stamped ceiling tile, the lighting, the exposed and refinished brick walls, to the unique bar top, everyone was impressed. The lit fireplaces, Christmas tree, and decorations gave it a holiday feel. Our 60+ people had plenty of seating and also room to socialize comfortably. We recommend and would use this venue again. -Mitch from Dowagiac

 

1/8/22 I have been fortunate enough to visit two times, both times I was warmly greeted by Michelle and or Brian, they are both so much fun. They are also very creative and give excellent guidance and advice. Guests were happy and comfortable, and the place is absolutely beautiful. They have done an excellent job of restoring the old charm and updating what was needed to perfect it for modern needs. I can guarantee that I will be using this venue again. If you are looking for a comfortable, elegant, interesting place to host, this place is the perfect spot!! Its elegance is unique and not like all the others. - Sara from Elkhart

1/24/22 Venue 132 is a quaint location. Having had the great fortune to attend two events there I would say Venue 132 made a beautiful back drop for each. The attention to detail to its renovation is impressive and Brian and Michelle are wonderful to work with. -Sherry from Indianapolis

6/4/22 Venue 132 is a fantastic place to host a graduation party!!! The space is beautiful 🤩 and centrally located in the heart of downtown Dowagiac. The owners were very accommodating. A dream to work with! And I could feel their excitement for my graduate . Full kitchen access, Bluetooth speaker system, mounted projector and screen, beautiful dimmable lighting, gorgeous hardwood floors, exposed brick walls… so many amenities. Also special graduation package option to include your school colors.
This venue worked very well for my daughter’s graduation party and would be great for any gathering.

6/28/22 Perfect place for a rehearsal dinner!!! We had Lebanese food catered in from La Pita. The Venue has warmers and chafing dishes to serve and make it look so beautiful!

It was an absolutely marvelous place and Michelle was gracious and accommodating from beginning to end!! Have your event here!! You will be so very pleased!!!!!! -Julie from Niles

10/29/22 Beautiful venue, the owners were easy to work with and accommodating. We had our wedding out of state and hosted a second reception here for family who couldn’t make it. It was a perfect space and had everything we needed. Everything was set up when we arrived exactly as we requested and everything needed for our event was provided (we just brought extra decorations). We would happily host another event here and recommend it to others. We had a total of about 80 people and space was not an issue at all. We also got a lot of comments from our guests about how beautiful the space was. -Aaron from Ann Arbor

12/22/22 This was the perfect spot for our family Christmas party! Plenty of room and little areas to gather around. Michelle was so accommodating to all our needs. If your family or party is too big for your home, you won’t be disappointed here! It has everything you need. Thank you Venue 132… we will definitely book this again.
