    Share with your team!
    This is a great resource for all venue owners and wannabes. We are all at a different place and time with our venues. I’ve been an owner for over 20 years. I learn from every episode. One of the best things is that I’m no longer alone! Jonathan is great at interviewing. I am encouraged and demotivated with every episode. Thank you VenueRX!

    Simply gold!
    Jonathan, you always do a great job with interviews and pulling information that you know will be very beneficial to Venue owner‘s. This episode with Ariel about websites was simply gold. There were so much information that is not only actionable for the average user to their website, but everything offered was so relevant. Thank you Ariel for sharing that wealth of information and for what you do. Jonathan, thank you for having her on!

    As a new, unlikely venue owner. I was looking for tips and advice from folks in a similar situation. The VenueRX was a pleasant surprise. I’ve listened to many episodes and even applied some of the interviewees recommendations to my own business. Lots of helpful resources here! Thank you!

    Thank you!
    We started a wedding venue in 2022 when we stumbled onto The Venue RX. We have listened to all of the broadcasts, some twice! Thank you for getting this very helpful information out to venues!

    Really Helpful
    We started a wedding venue from scratch six months ago. This show has been immensely helpful.

    The most valuable venue information out there
    I’ve literally had this podcast on Repeat for the past three months. While getting ready, doing laundry or driving I live and breathe this podcast. As a new venue owner, it can feel so incredibly lonely and overwhelming. This podcast has made me feel like I’m not alone, and that I have an entire team of people behind me cheering me on. I cannot thank you enough for pouring your time and effort into educating us venue owners. I am eternally, grateful Keep up the good work! ❤️Leah Faddis (Tuscan Oaks Estate, TX)

    New Wedding Owners
    My partner and I are currently building our wedding venue and have spent the last year diving into this podcast. Coming from two people not involved in the industry until now, we cannot say enough kuddos to this podcast. It has been very informational and reassuring hearing from multiple guest speakers to help guide us through this uncharted territory. Great job!!

    Must listen to podcast for anyone planning an event!
    I love this podcast! Big family reunion? Planning your dream wedding? Or a corporate event? If you are bringing people together in any way, you will love this podcast too. Jonathan is an expert with over 15 years in the field. He brings his experience as well as his talent for drawing people out with great questions to bring you the vital info you need to pull off the event of the year that will stick in everyone’s minds forever! My own wedding was absolutely stunning (despite our tight budget) and many have told me it was the best wedding they have ever been to. You won’t regret taking advice from Jonathan!

    Road Maps
    Jonathan asks probing questions of his expert guests. The guests provide very detailed responses, which are valuable “how to do” road maps.
  • Kidzolt
    Splendid
    The Venue Rx appears to be very informative on the ins and outs of what happens in the background, and what it takes to pull off these delicate and extremely important events. Jonathan is a wonderful host, bringing with him the accolades of being a dual purpose master in the field of event staffing and venue management, having built companies from scratch, like CSE, which specializes in this space. He boasts a wealth of knowledge and experience in field execution as well as classroom training. Looking forward to seeing which guests they decide to host next!
