Planning and hosting an event is stressful.

And you shouldn’t have to settle for:

Lackluster buffets

Dimly lit back rooms

Sweating through set up and clean up

Not enjoying a single minute

Hosting your event at Wooden Paddle is different. Here’s what to expect:

Stress-Free Planning

Book us and chill. Our experienced team will handle all the nitty-gritty details – from start time to seating arrangements – so you don’t have to.

Food + Drinks Your Guests Will Rave About

Your guests were mentally preparing for a sad spread of dried out canapes. So get ready to hear “Ermergherd, this is all sooo good!” over, and over, and over again.

A Team That Takes Care Of It All

On event day, you won’t have to worry about setup, or cleanup, or anything in between. We’ve got it covered – all you have to do is enjoy yourself!
