Funding Your First Venue Project Without Personal Capital | Hannah Corbacio
On this week's episode of The Venue Rx Podcast, host Jonathan Aymin sits down with Hannah Corbacio, the visionary behind The Rosalia Hotel, a beautifully restored boutique hotel and wedding venue in Pottsville, Pennsylvania. Hannah shares how an unexpected start in real estate investing evolved into an ambitious hospitality project, offering an honest look at what it takes to breathe new life into a historic property while building a thriving wedding venue business.
Hannah opens up about the realities of working alongside her spouse, raising capital for a large-scale renovation, and having the confidence to book weddings before the venue was even complete. She also shares how setting clear expectations with couples helped build trust during construction and why taking calculated risks has been essential to her success. She also breaks down how she's leveraged organic social media, especially TikTok to generate awareness, build excitement, and consistently attract new wedding bookings without relying on a massive advertising budget.
