Historic Downtown Phoenix Wedding Venue

Unveiling Phoenix, Arizona’s Historical Gem: The Abbey on Monroe Through a Creative Shoot

Nestled amidst the bustling streets of downtown Phoenix, there stands a monument to resilience and rebirth: The Abbey on Monroe. Once a solemn church left to the ravages of time, this historical treasure lay abandoned for several years until its recent revival and grand opening in March of 2024, breathing new life into its weathered walls and sacred halls.

The venue stood as a canvas for an extraordinary creative shoot, orchestrated by the visionary team at Matchbox Event Co. Together with a curated selection of vendors, they transformed The Abbey's spaces into three distinct realms of beauty and imagination.

Under the shimmering glow of chandeliers, the first space unfolded like a scene from a fairytale. Soft hues and elegant accents adorned the room, casting a spell of timeless sophistication. Here, romance mingled with opulence as guests were transported to a world where every moment felt like a dream.

In the second space, serpentine tables adorned with textured linens created an atmosphere of intimacy and charm. Each element, from the table settings to the floral arrangements, was a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of the vendors involved.

Throughout the shoot, The Abbey on Monroe served as more than just a backdrop—it was a character in its own right, its rich history and timeless elegance infusing every frame with a sense of grandeur and romance. From its majestic architecture to its ornate details, the venue provided the perfect setting for the team to unleash their creativity and bring their vision to life.
