The First

The First at The Faulkner is a sophisticated downtown event space with a nod to the building’s southern heritage.   The herringbone wood floors, supple velvet floor-to-ceiling drapery, and shimmering wall coverings in the recessed ceiling coffers set the tone for a luncheon of 20, a rehearsal dinner of 125, or a cocktail celebration of 150.
