Venue Spotlight - Bringing a Forgotten Church Back to Life

What happens when a forgotten Baptist church sits empty for 30 years and someone finally says "yeah, let's turn this into a wedding venue"? You get The Mizpah — a gothic, moody, completely one-of-a-kind wine sanctuary and event space in the heart of downtown Syracuse, and we are obsessed. In this Venue Spotlight episode, we're sitting down with Mike Green and Jenna Ellis to talk about how they're transforming a building that had holes in the floor, a bird living inside, and a leaking roof into one of the most unique spaces in Central New York. We're getting into: The gothic design philosophy — preserving the decay, not erasing it A self-pour wine wall with 24 wines you can customize for your wedding The mezzanine idea that will have guests watching the ceremony from the old choir loft Why a day-of coordinator might be the most underrated wedding vendor out there If you're a bride, a vendor, or just someone who loves a space that breaks the mold — this one's for you. 🔔 Subscribe and drop your questions or topic requests in the comments below! 🏛️ Find The Mizpah: 🌐 https://www.themizpah.com/ 📷   / themizpahsyr   🌐 shootthevows.com 🎙️ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5gdQT05... 🎙️ Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... 📷 Instagram:   / shootthevows
