PRAISE

  • “I would definitely recommend hosting an event at Portsmouth Gas Light Co. Although it is a bit unconventional – having an event in a night club – it turns into a beautifully light, comfortable space for a rehearsal dinner in Portsmouth. Their team was very helpful, cooperative, and provided a great service.” –Wedding Wire Review

  • “The event coordinator and staff were wonderful! Whenever (my husband) or I needed something, they were ON IT! I cannot tell you how appreciative I am for that.” –Anonymous

  • “Book your party at the Gas Light! They did not disappoint. I planned a girlfriend’s birthday here last April and we had so much fun, we planned another for myself this past May!” –Yelp Review

  • “The Gas Light was a great place for our rehearsal dinner. We had the upstairs to ourselves which is a very cool space with exposed brick and circular bar, and awesome views of downtown Portsmouth. The food was really good and one bartender in particular was really great and helpful. There was a screen for a slideshow that my brother in law made for us, and a mic for my father in law to do a speech. It was great!” –Wedding Wire Review

  • “THANK YOU for such a wonderful experience at the Gas Light and I am so grateful that you helped us coordinate. I also wanted to send a personal thank you from (my husband) and I to your staff that day, which were so helpful and accommodating to us and our family.” –Anonymous
