The staff at Theory Bar made this event! They were absolutely incredible. We did our vow renewal reception at Theory Bar. The bar manager set up the decorations prior to the event. And they did all of the pack down at 3am. They were kind, and fun and an all around great time. It was so easy. I would get married again for the third time, just to throw another party at Theory Bar.
