The only venue in downtown Trussville that's entirely yours.
One event a day. The whole building, the covered patio, and the parking, with no one on the property who isn't yours. Your own vendors, and every price published before you ask.
We built The PHNX to be the place we'd want to celebrate in ourselves: private, honest about price, and open to the vendors you already love.
We're a local, family-owned venue, and Trussville has been home since 1997. One event a day, every price published, and the vendors you already love are always welcome.

"One thing we especially appreciated was the flexibility to use the caterer of our choice, which is rare at many venues."
"This was the first and last place we toured. We were immediately hooked due to the location, availability, style, price and of course the helpfulness from Candace."
"The owners, Candace and Andrew, were nothing short of phenomenal to work with. They truly made everything magical!"
Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, and we'd rather you hear it from us. During the week, The PHNX is home to local businesses, including a church, physical therapist, gym, marketing agency, and martial arts studio. Once your booking starts, every room, the covered patio, and the parking are yours alone. Nobody shows up who isn't part of your event.
Every booking includes the full venue, the sound system, and a dedicated PHNX team member. Weddings add tables and chairs for up to 125 guests, ceremony setup and the room flip, the bridal suite, and the groom's room. For private events, you rent only the tables and chairs you need. Every price is on our pricing page.
Yes, with a licensed and insured bartender that you hire. That's required any time alcohol is present, including beer and wine, and guests can never serve themselves. We don't sell or serve alcohol, so build bar service into your plans from the start.
Tours are by appointment. Send us your date, event type, and guest count and we'll confirm availability, usually the same day, and set up a time to walk through together.
