Company meetings for up to 275 people in theater rows, seated dinners for 184 and wedding ceremonies with receptions for 150 can be held at Collier Hall, an event venue in a former church dating to 1907 in Atlanta's Collier Village. The building now forms part of a mixed-use development, and the venue is run by West Midtown Venues.
Seminars and company events
The main ballroom works for presentations, town halls and award dinners. In theater rows it holds 275, and for a networking evening a cocktail reception can take 250. Seated without a dance floor, the room takes 184 for a company dinner. The indoor pre-function area handles registration and coffee before a session, and the outdoor deck gives a group somewhere to step outside between talks or for a drink after the program. The venue lists corporate gatherings among its main uses alongside weddings and social events, and partial-facility rentals from Sunday to Friday suit smaller groups that do not need the whole building.
Weddings and receptions
Couples can hold both the ceremony and the reception on site for up to 150 guests, with the ballroom turned around between the two. Cocktail hour usually moves to the outdoor deck while the room is reset. With a dance floor, the seated reception capacity is 175. The venue team aims to answer inquiries within one business day.
Rooms and capacities
There are three areas: the indoor pre-function space, the main ballroom and the outdoor deck. The ballroom keeps the high ceilings of the original church. Stated capacities are 275 theater style, 250 for a cocktail reception, 184 seated without a dance floor, 175 seated with a dance floor and 150 for a ceremony followed by a reception in the same space.
Catering
Food must come from Proof of the Pudding or from one of the approved caterers: Added Touch Catering, Affairs To Remember, BOLD, Endive, Fox Brothers Catering, Low Country Catering, Rea Events & Catering or Wolfgang Puck Catering. Bar service and all beverages are supplied by the venue, so drinks are arranged directly with the Collier Hall team.
History and setting
The ballroom occupies a church built in 1907 that has been reworked as part of the Collier Village development in northwest Atlanta. West Midtown Venues also runs Summit at 8West and The Dogwood at Westside Paper, which can help when a group needs a second date or a different size of room.
