Rustic & Romantic Northern Wisconsin Wedding Venues | Part 2
Ten years ago, Katie and I started planning our own wedding and we had no idea where to start. We had never planned a wedding before and all the weddings we had ever attended took place in a Church. While we still admire traditional wedding venues, Northern and Central Wisconsin have some great options for the modern bride who is looking to break the mold and is up for a little adventure. Why not invite all your closest friends to a resort for the weekend and end your night with a camp fire and smores. Check out some of our favorite Northern Wisconsin Wedding Venues. Part 1
White’s Wildwood Retreat
White’s Wildwood Retreat is one of those venues where all of your dreams come true. There is nothing that the team won’t do for you to make your wedding day magical. The venue can accommodate a wide range of ceremony and reception requests. If you are unsure of the type of venue you want then you need to visit White’s Wildwood Retreat and see what they have to offer. If you are looking for a beautiful country wedding venue in Wisconsin, then this is the place you have been dreaming of. You can find this magical retreat nestled in the bluffs between Eau Claire and Chippewa Falls in the town of LaFayette.
This venue is both rustic and elegant and provides a beautiful country vibe to your big day. From vast grassy gardens with rustic bridges and arches, to gorgeous wooded indoors with breathtaking views of nature. The stunning wooden pavilion is a fantastic option for your reception. The simplicity of the place lends itself to endless decor possibilities. Should you wish to keep things simple, the natural wood and dim glow of the fairy lights are romantic enough to create the dreamy atmosphere you are looking for. Perhaps you prefer to dance under the stars as husband and wife? Choose to have your reception moved outdoors in the beautiful country gardens and dine by starlight.
Choose White’s Wildwood Retreat for the endless photographic opportunities. There are many beautiful backdrops that nature provides at this venue. Your guests that have traveled far can also spend the night in one of the many cabins available on the property.
Enchanted Barn
Enchanted Barn in Hillsdale Wisconsin is a venue out of an enchanted country fairytale. Their slogan is “where rustic marries elegance” and it is truly nothing short of that very description. You will feel no less than royalty on your wedding day should you choose to marry at Enchanted Barn. Everything from the bridal suite to the reception barn, is absolutely gorgeous and finished with rustic touches of ancient timber and stone with hints of chic white decor.
Your wedding ceremony is held inside the barn loft under the glow of soft lights and candles. The barn is open and allows nature to fill the air as you say your vows. When your ceremony is over guests can enjoy cocktails on the decked patio by the fireplace while you enjoy the beauty of the gardens for your wedding photos. While you are away the barn gets transformed into a dining area to die for. Guests won’t believe it is the same place that they were sitting in for the ceremony. After the dinner speeches are over and the guests are satisfied with their amazing meal they can once again head to the coffee parlor to enjoy an array of desserts while the final touch of magic happens in the barn. Once again the team changes the venue into a dance floor of dimmed lights and romance.
There is no request too large or elaborate for the Enchanted Barn team and they will go out of their way to make sure that your wedding day vision is met. Their motto “shoe up and get married” is taken to the literal extreme and you can rest assured that your day will be perfect.
Willow Springs Garden
Picture getting married in a restored old barn. Willow Springs is known for its rustic round barn which caters for many functions. There are a wide array of ceremony options at Willow Springs and is perfect for both summer and winter weddings.
Should you choose to say your nuptials outdoors, your decor will be minimal as the beautiful gardens and lush lawns provide all of the country beauty you need for your ceremony. There is a quaint little gazebo that can also be used for your ceremony and will look really great in your photos. If you decide to marry in the cold winter months, your ceremony can be held in the old town hall or in a romantic tent in the gardens. Your reception can also be held in the hall, although the round barn is the center attraction at Willow Springs. Little decor is needed inside the old wooden barn as it provides that rustic charm most country brides are looking for. Dance the night away in this unique barn that dates back to the late 1800’s and create memories that will last a lifetime.
Willow Springs Garden is a simple country gem that is warm and inviting, making it the perfect location for your country wedding.
SentryWorld
Located in central Wisconsin, SentryWorld is a unique choice for your wedding. Your ceremony and reception locations offer views of their beautiful green golf course. The manicured gardens are something to gaze at in awe at SentryWorld.
Enjoy a beautiful outdoor ceremony in the summertime in the lush gardens painted with colorful flowers. Your photos will be nothing short of magical in the magnificent garden setting this venue has to offer. In the winter months, you can choose from one of the indoor options which is equally as beautiful with its wood finishes.
Your reception will be held in the hall of your choice. All of the halls have the most exquisite wooden finishes which is both rustic and modern. The way they have designed the ceilings is truly beautiful and complimented by the stunning lighting fixtures which will provide elegant backdrops for your reception photos. In the snowy winter months, your guests can enjoy the stone boma fire on the patio while we capture the most amazing winter photos with nature’s own bridal backdrop of white snow. All of the buildings are wood with marvelous stone features designed in a chic modern way.
If you are looking for something between country and modern then this is the right venue for your big day. Beautiful architecture with rustic compliments and gorgeous lush gardens, what more could a bride ask for?
