1st Love Events CT

About Us

Some venues hand you a room. 1st Love Events CT hands you a possibility. Located on Berlin Turnpike in Newington, this sleek, all-white modern event space was built around one idea: your vision should run the show, not the venue's existing décor. The bright, clean interior becomes whatever you imagine, a romantic wedding backdrop, a bold birthday statement, an elegant baby shower, or a polished corporate gathering.

Owner Tanya brings genuine warmth and hands-on creativity to every booking. She works alongside clients to connect them with the right vendors, suggest ideas that fit their style, and make sure the planning process feels exciting rather than stressful. That personal attention has earned 1st Love Events a 4.8-star rating across nearly 100 reviews, with guests consistently noting how smoothly their events came together.

This is a space that works hard for Central Connecticut families, couples, and organizations who want something elevated without surrendering control of their own celebration.

"We recently had my graduation party at First Love Events, and it was an amazing experience! The owner was incredibly kind, friendly, and helpful throughout the entire process. She even allowed us to do our decorations the day before the event at no extra charge, which made everything so much easier and less stressful. The venue itself was beautiful, clean, and very well maintained. The pricing was also very reasonable considering the quality, condition, and appearance of the venue. All of our guests loved the space and complimented how nice it was. I highly recommend First Love Events to anyone looking for a venue for a special occasion. We had a wonderful experience and will definitely be back for future events. Thank you for helping make my graduation celebration so memorable! 😊🎉"
