A bright, private room in the heart of downtown Rome — soft daylight, warm wood, and a full kitchen one floor below for the food and cake. The Loft is made for the kind of afternoon a baby shower should be.
Hosting a baby shower at home means moving furniture, hiding the laundry, and cleaning up while your guests are still hugging the mom-to-be goodbye. The Loft at River Arts Venue gives you a finished, photo-ready room downtown instead — you bring the people and the presents, and you walk out when it's over.
Upstairs and tucked away, the Loft overlooks our Big Room and gets beautiful light through the afternoon. It comfortably seats up to 30 for grazing tables, games, and gift-opening, and the full kitchen one floor down makes serving food, drinks, and the cake simple. It's a short walk from Broad Street, so out-of-town family can make a weekend of it.
Up to 30 guests · bright and private upstairs. The natural fit for most baby showers — intimate, easy, and right above the kitchen.
Up to 200 with a full kitchen. For a big, blended-family shower or a co-ed "sip and see," step downstairs into the main event space.
A polished alternative on the main floor — seats 50, with a refreshment station and screen for slideshows of the ultrasound.
The Loft seats up to 30 — the right size for most baby showers. For a larger shower, the Big Room downstairs opens up to 200 and shares the same full kitchen.
