Cuvée

We wanted an industrial look and we got just that! This location has history and personality that was a perfect fit for our vision! Working with Gina was great!! She helped guide us on certain decisions but also when I wanted to go in a different direction, supported and ensure my vision was brought to life. However, I did feel nickled and dimed by the owner which is why I only have 4 stars. Originally we were going to have a late night pizza brought in which they've done for other events without issue it sounded like. We discussed first visit to the venue; however, a couple months prior to our wedding date the owner decided to implement a $150 charge to anyone who wanted to have a local service deliver late night pizza. So we had to get pizza from our caterer instead who openly admitted it wouldn't be as good as the local pizza experts. We also were planning to have a 30 minute rehearsal walk-through the night prior IF another event wasn't booked. Once we got the all clear that the night prior was available we wanted to move ahead to plan that 30 minute walk-through... To which we were very surprised to hear there would be a $200 per hour charge to use it for the rehearsal. When I said it was disappointing to hear it, I was told "As stated in your contract you are allotted 6 hours on the specific day you have chosen. With any additional days or times you are subject to a fee. Our normal added hour fee is $300.00 an hour. With rehearsals since we are not able to guarantee the date or time until a month out, it is subject to a $200.00 an hour fee." This was extremely disappointing and rather steep for 30 minutes when we were already spending so much money with Cuvee. We ended up doing it as the rehearsal dinner venue instead who was much more accommodating. Thanks to Gina, we were able to come in the morning before and setup the guest table, memorial table, trinkets, and wedding card table. This helped out tremendously!!! Overall Gina and the location were terrific. I had a vision and it turned out exactly as I had pictured it - it was perfect! I would definitely recommend this venue and especially Gina! I cannot give her enough kudos for how wonderful she was to work with. She made every attempt to make sure it was perfect and ensure things were taken care of to my vision. Thank you from not only the bride and groom, but the entire wedding party who loved you, Gina!

It saddens me that I have to write a poor review, but our experience here was less than subpar. When my wife and I started looking for wedding venues, she fell in love with Cuvée. But after a while we started feeling more and more upset about how we were being treated. Kris the owner is the only person who works there, so we understood at first why service wasn't the best, but then we found out that we were the first out of two weddings she had all year...My wife would email and call Kris numerous times. It would take her days to respond, or she wouldn't respond at all. We began to become irritated when she did respond, she was short and rude. A week before the wedding she told us all of our guests, including us had to wear a mask, which we get, but when you spend thousands of dollars on a private event, we should get what we want. The day before the wedding we were able to talk her out of us having to wear masks during our own ceremony, but everyone else had too. She would then would walk around and threaten to throw people out if they didn't wear a mask; but its a wedding and people are eating and drinking... We had numerous people come up to us at our wedding and complain that she was rude to them...its embarrassing. We get that there is a mask mandate for public spaces, but when you pay the money we paid and everyone who VOLUNTARILY came had to wear masks. At the end of the night as my wife and I were leaving, she walked right in front of us and didn't say a thing, no congrats or anything. Communication is terrible and the owner is rude.

A delightful place for a wedding! My son and his new wife were married there in June 2018. It was beautiful! The food was fabulous, too. Great place for an intimate wedding setting. They need a better area for the bride and her party to get ready in, but hopefully that will come.

Hosted our daughter's wedding at Cuvee and it was perfect! We loved the venue, esp the bar area that provided a lot of seating and a beautiful bar with wonderful service by Cuvee staff. Many of our guests commented on the venue, so unique, and best of all was Gina, who helped us every step of the way. Thanks Gina, you made the day a lot less stressful for the MOB and FOB:

Went to a wedding here it was a lovely environment for a smaller wedding size. The ceremony and reception were both held here. They only had one bartender on staff though, and drinks took a long time to get. Everything else was very nice.

I loved the venue. Everyone had a great time. The layout was perfect with a lovely bar in the hallway just outside the room where the wedding was held. The staff was wonderful. Make sure you read the contract carefully so you aren't unpleasantly surprised by taxes and gratuities which aren't hidden but may not be obvious.

Do not book your venue here!! The owner was extremely unprofessional and horribly rude. During the COVID situation, CHRIS only was concerned for herself and didn’t even consider the feelings of not only the wedding guests, but the bride and groom. She yelled at multiple guests and wouldn’t even smile at the parents of the bride and groom throughout the wedding. I was BEYOND disappointed with this experience at Cuvée and recommend any other venue in Milwaukee than here. Please do not waste your time or finances on an owner that only cares about your money.

We had our wedding here last weekend. Gina was amazing to work with through the planning process and day of. The venue itself is beautiful and it was so convenient to be able to do the ceremony and reception in one place. If you are looking for a unique venue in an awesome location then this is the place to go with! Thank you Gina and team!

My husband and I had our wedding reception at Cuvee in April 2016, and everything was perfect. Nadia was our event manager, and she executed everything exactly as I imagined my perfect wedding day. The venue is truly a Milwaukee gem, but what really sets it apart is the service you receive from the Cuvee staff. I highly recommend hosting an event here!

IF I COULD GIVE NEGATIVE STARS I WOULD. The owner of this event space who also coordinated the wedding I was in, Kris, was SO incredibly rude to the BRIDE and groom !!!!!!!!!, the families on both sides, the wedding party, as well as guests. The whole evening she stormed around the place interacting poorly and unprofessionally to all guests and overall kept up a terribly “appearance”. It was the most terrible experience. I highly recommend to NOT work with Kris in any way.
