From our first visit to the final moments of our celebration, the entire team at The Gardens was incredibly supportive. The venue itself is absolutely stunning, with beautiful surroundings that created the perfect backdrop for our special day.

The staff went above and beyond to ensure our wedding was everything we had envisioned. Our guests were in awe of the beautiful setting and the fantastic service.

We are so grateful for the wonderful experience and highly recommend The Gardens as a magical place to celebrate any wedding.

The Gardens Wedding Center is such an incredible and beyond gorgeous place to have a wedding! My husband and I were married on 08/03/24 and we’ve received so many compliments from our guests. Amanda, Johan, and The Gardens team went out of their way to make our wedding day special. The food was delicious, the decorations and gardens were incredible, and their service was phenomenal! My husband and I love history and it’s always great to see a historic church and other historic buildings restored. Especially, since it’s the same church my great grandpa’s parents got married at and the same church/school his grandparents went to long ago! It was so special for my husband and I to get married in the exact same church! We definitely recommend The Gardens Wedding Center as a wedding venue! Our wedding day is a day we will always remember and look back on. Everything was outstanding and beyond beautiful. We are so blessed to have found this amazing wedding venue! We look forward to visiting The Gardens Wedding Center again soon!

Sincerely, Mr. & Mrs. Tanner St.John

When we were touring wedding venues, it was game over for every other venue once we saw the Gardens! Right away, it's obvious that this is an amazing and dreamy property. Guests told us all night that our wedding had the most beautiful, unique venue. Of course the venue is beautiful, but the team we worked with was just as great. Every employee we interacted with made us feel supported in the wedding planning process and just showered with love and joy on our big day. Throughout the planning process, the team answered all sorts of questions I had beyond the standard questions and they were always so sweet, thoughtful, and helpful. I so deeply appreciated that the staff always listened to our ideas and made us feel welcome. The people were kind, the food was delicious, the drinks were awesome, the scenery was awesome- we couldn't have asked for more.
Another thing we loved about this venue is that everything is on site and easy to manage- no need to rent an extra space for getting ready suites, no need to worry about a "plan b" in case of weather because the historical chapel is as GORGEOUS as the outdoor spaces. Truly, I don't think there'd be a way to have a less than stunning event here, the whole space is just phenomenal and we will stay obsessed for life.

The Garden Wedding center was the wedding venue out of my fairytale dreams. Everything about the venue was magical. And the staff and food service is second to none. We loved that they are a family owned business and it is clear to all that family is at the center of what they do. They stopped at nothing to make or wedding everything we could have possibly dreamed of!

We got married at The Gardens Wedding Center 10/12/2024.
Planning leading up to our wedding was a dream. Amanda was super responsive to my hundreds of questions I emailed her and working with her was great. She is very knowledgeable not only of the wedding industry, but also the venue.
Both of our signature drinks were delicious, compliments to Julian and the other bartenders! Julian was also a treat to work with!
The FOOD is amazing. The steak was like butter and we heard from at least 20 people how good the Italian Macaroni & Cheese was. If Chef Kent wants to hook us up with more food, we are down anytime
Johan was great and worked as an overseer of our day. I knew where to find him most of the night if I needed anything and he did wonders to help reassure me and calm me down.
Our ceremony was chaotic, but NOT having anything to do with the venue or staff. It started pouring rain and hailing right at 3:30, when our ceremony was to start. We went forward and had an outdoor ceremony, and kept it short & sweet. We had planned to do dinner outside, but with lightning passing through, the venue staff seamlessly flipped everything to their indoor space, without me even noticing!
The getting ready space for both men and women is perfect.
We got so many compliments on how beautiful the space was. We chose The Gardens because it’s beautiful space that is well taken care of, but also family owned. And we are so happy to be a little part of their family now, cause our day is definitely going to be unforgettable.
Thank you all staff for your hard work.

Absolutely the BEST experience! The Gardens was an amazing place to host our wedding. I had several guests tell me this was the best wedding they ever attended. Food was delicious! Johan and Amanda make every wish come true. I can’t thank them enough. We did minimal decorating and the pictures are stunning! I can not thank The Gardens enough.

The Gardens Wedding Venue hosted our most perfect day with family & friends. I don’t have enough words to describe how wonderful the staff of the Gardens is! My husband and I knew we were going to have our reception at the Gardens- we didn’t need to look anywhere else. We first encountered the venue at their “Tuesday in the Gardens” farmers market when we were first dating. Immediately we both fell in love with the venue. The beautiful garden space, the food was AMAZING, and over the next few years we got to know the staff. Fast forward to deciding where to host our reception and we didn’t have to think twice. We immediately called the Gardens.

Amanda went above and beyond with the planning process. Quick responses, feedback, suggestions, everything! I never had to worry bout anything because I knew she had it all under control. Our food tasting was phenomenal. We already knew the food was amazing- but picking out our favorites for the dinner sure was tough! Our guests RAVED about the jalapeño mac & cheese and the fall harvest salad. We enjoyed everything. We did signature old fashion cocktails that the bartender nailed the recipe. It was a great conversation starter during cocktail hour.

The property grounds are just magical. We didn’t have to decorate or do any decorating because we wanted the gardens themself to be the center of attention. We had unlimited beautiful spots to take pictures. Guests could walk around and have plenty of space to mingle and explore. The owners allowed us to bring our two dogs and they could be part of our pre cocktail hour photos and hang out.

We can’t thank the staff enough, specifically Amanda, Johan, Julie, Kent & Julian. They went above and beyond to make sure our day was beyond perfect!

Such an incredible wedding venue in Wisconsin! It’s like a hidden gem that draws you in with breathtaking historical beauty and charm! The space is so unique and special with a rich history that must be seen and felt! It’s no wonder people rate this venue so highly! The owners Johan and Julie are marvelous people who have fallen in love with love as they make it their mission to host the most unforgettable weddings! And Amanda the “queen of incredible customer experience” knows how to bring a vision into reality for every couple that walks up to this garden wedding venue. I am blown away by the experience and absolutely recommend them for any couple looking for the best venue for their big day!
