The Lace Factory

The Lace Factory is a privately bookable event venue in Deep River, Connecticut, set in a historic industrial building near the Connecticut River. Exposed brick, steel beams, high ceilings and large windows give the main space a distinctive character, while its open layout can be styled for celebrations ranging from understated gatherings to more formal occasions.

The venue welcomes weddings, corporate events and private functions for up to 225 guests. Its event offering includes wedding ceremonies and receptions, company celebrations, retreats and networking events, as well as rehearsal dinners, bridal showers, milestone birthdays, anniversaries, bar and bat mitzvahs, memorial gatherings and sports banquets. The Riverview Room offers a more intimate setting for rehearsal dinners or a post-wedding brunch. Couples can also make use of a bridal suite, while the on-site hospitality suite provides another space for guests. The venue team offers planning support, including design consultation through MVP Events.

Food is part of the event experience, with catering available through the venue's catering partnership. The setting also offers river views and access to nearby parkland. For a memorable arrival, the venue works with the Essex Steam Train, which can bring guests to the doors in a vintage railcar. On-site parking and nearby accommodation help organisers plan for guests travelling to the area. Event planners can arrange a private tour to explore the spaces and discuss their event requirements.
