The stunning architecture provides the perfect setting for wedding shoppers, photoshoots, and more, creating a vibrant yet intimate atmosphere. Whether you're here to shop, capture a moment, or simply enjoy the surroundings, our building’s beauty will leave a lasting impression.
Welcome to Gallery 118—we’re thrilled you’ve found us! Whether you're a bride or couple searching for the perfect wedding services, or a photographer in need of a stunning space to capture breathtaking images, we’ve got everything you need and more.
I’m Kathy Stout, proud owner of Gallery 118, located in the heart of the vibrant Reading, Ohio Bridal District. Our historic building, built in 1900, never fails to leave a lasting impression on everyone who steps inside. Nestled on West Benson, we’re surrounded by about 30 other incredible wedding shops, creating a one-of-a-kind destination for all things wedding and event-related.
We’ve got big plans for our beautiful space, and we’re so excited for you to be part of our journey as we grow and evolve. On our first floor, you’ll find four amazing wedding and event shops, plus our stunning 1,000 sq. ft. loft—the White Loft Studio—a perfect space for photography with its pristine white backdrop. And that’s just the beginning! We can’t wait to unveil two other studios, The Magnolia and The Jasmine, coming March 2025.
It’s been a labor of love to bring these spaces and businesses to life, and we hope you’ll enjoy the magic we’ve poured into them. We can’t wait for you to explore, create, and celebrate with us!
