Client’s Review ~ Erin W. (Operations Manager at Parity Technologies) google review:
“I had a wonderful experience hosting a company event at Sway. Adam and the team were super easy to work with and flexible with their time as we took multiple calls across a 9 hour time difference. They answered all of my questions thoroughly and respected my budget. The event itself went off without a hitch! The group loved Sway's decor and the abundance of natural light in the space. It suited our needs extremely well, and I can only recommend Sway for any of your event needs!”
