Do the Ballroom & Lounge open up into one larger space?
In February 2020 we renovated the Ballroom & Lounge to have a removable wall between the 2 rooms. When closed it is comprised of twelve 4-foot wood panels that look a lot stylistically like the barn doors that used to be in place. To combine the rooms, these panels slide along a rail they hang from and “accordion” neatly near the Ballroom bar. This creates a completely open area as if it were one great room. Please note: there are still 2 load-bearing posts spaced evenly across the expanse which cannot be moved. Check out our photos page for this new feature!

Can I put a hold on a date?
We wish we could do this but it just doesn’t work for our schedule to run smoothly. Once you’ve seen the space and had all your questions answered, we’ll receive a signed contract and a deposit and then the date is yours!

How much is my deposit?
The booking process is as follows: withinsodo.com/process-summary. As the total rental costs are determined by the configuration of rooms you rent, we will send a link to our contract and invoicing system after your tour. At this point, you would automatically enact a "soft hold" on your date of choice - or technically the first right of refusal - as you have the contract in hand.

What about any other paperwork I need to have before I can have my event there?
A Certificate of Insurance (COI) is required for all events. You may purchase a one-day policy (we are happy to provide suggestions) or add to your existing insurance.
Apart from any permits that your event requires, we have a standard contract/agreement. We also require every event to have a Certificate of Liability Insurance naming WithinSodo as “Additional Insured.”
