Tom Nicchi: The Man Behind The State Room

What truly sets The State Room apart is its owner, Tom Nicchi. His hands-on involvement goes far beyond managing a venue. From meeting with couples and coordinating bookings to overseeing the kitchen, catering, bar service, and wedding-day operations, Tom is involved in nearly every aspect of the business.

That level of personal attention makes a difference. Behind every beautifully executed celebration is someone making sure everything runs smoothly.
