“From our very first conversation, Michelle saw our vision, believed in what we were building, and welcomed us into the space with open arms. As founders, those kinds of partnerships mean everything. She wasn’t just providing a venue—she was a true collaborator who wanted to see us succeed.

The space itself was perfect for the atmosphere we were trying to create: warm, inviting, professional, and designed in a way that naturally fostered connection and conversation. Our guests felt comfortable the moment they walked through the door.

What made the experience so special, though, was the people behind the space. Michelle and the RecRoom team were thoughtful, supportive, communicative, and genuinely invested in helping bring our vision to life. It felt less like a venue partnership and more like working alongside people who cared about the outcome as much as we did.

We’re incredibly grateful to have hosted our event at RecRoom and look forward to collaborating again in the future.”

“The kind and endlessly helpful RecRoom team made our event easy and stress-free. Their experience staging events of all sizes ensured a great layout, and thoughtful execution. And they shared on their social to complement the marketing and messaging our group put on. RecRoom is so flexible, so while it can hold up to 80 people, our mid-size event still felt perfectly comfortable and right-sized.”

“RecRoom is a gem and Montclair is lucky we have such a space. We held an event there and Michelle responded promptly, was flexible with major decisions and helped make warm introductions to vendors we needed for the event. On the day of she and Luke made sure our event went off without a hitch, jumping on technical issues and making sure all our speakers were up and running with WiFi and casting to the TV. Given that these were lightning talks and we had 9 speakers one after the other every ten mins, this was no small feat. Thank you Michelle and RecRoom team!”

“We have hosted two events in this space. The vibe is immaculate. The staff is super accommodating, and the vibe puts our guests at ease. For the first event, we reserved a room to host interviews. Second, we rented the entire space for 5 hours. The rate was great, and they had everything we needed. Personally, will be using it for regular co-working space during the summer while the kids are home.”

“I recently hosted an event at the Rec Room and had a great experience. Michelle and her team were wonderful to work with. They helped promote the event and made the logistics side feel easy. I highly recommend the Rec Room whether you’re hosting an event or just looking for a place to work around other people for the day.”

“The RecRoom staff is super friendly. They helped us plan and host an event with over 30 attendees. Everyone loved it, so much so that one of our attendees booked their own event at The RecRoom not long after!”
