The Location
La Vida is a beautiful space that during the day serves as a popular coffee shop hangout. During the evenings the space is turned into a beautiful venue for events. Wedding receptions, formal dinners, parties and more occur on a regular basis. We think you will really enjoy the space and can’t wait to see you there!
