My husband and I had a small elopement dinner in the Newsroom at the Union Restaurant and it was lovely! The food was delicious and Jaida was a pleasure to work with both in planning and throughout our dinner! The room was beautifully decorated and we were treated to a delicious blueberry pastry and creme brulee.
