The venue, location, staff, and food were excellent. It was the best day of my life and the Gather team were a key piece to making the day happen. Reviewed on 15-11-2023

We had a perfect experience at Gather! We highly recommend working with them - the whole Gather team and the catering team (through Levy) were amazing and easy to work with. If we had to do it all over again, we would 100% use Gather! Reviewed on 09-10-2023

The team was incredibly helpful and professional! I wouldn't want to work with anyone else. They were in constant communication with us and made the whole process less stressful. And the food was incredible! Reviewed on 09-10-2023

Our wedding at Gather was everything we could've hoped for. Mikayla, Ashley, and Mali (our contact for catering) were all great to work with and professional throughout the whole planning process. The venue being a more all-inclusive (they have a caterer that you work through) venue made the planning process so much easier. They truly made everything seamless and helped create such an amazing experience for us and our guests. We received many compliments on how kind the staff was and how delicious the food was. Would definitely recommend for any couples looking at a Downtown Milwaukee venue. Reviewed on 06-09-2023

Our wedding reception at Gather was absolutely perfect! The team there was so helpful and communication with them was seamless! We loved that we were able to customize our food and drink package and they were so accommodating with set up and drop off of reception items! We could not be happier to have hosted all our friends and family at Gather. Reviewed on 29-08-2023

We could not be more happy that we chose to have our wedding reception at Gather. In the months leading up to the wedding, our contacts were prompt in communication and very easy to work with. The venue was absolutely beautiful for our reception and the staff was incredible. Lastly, the food (short ribs and chicken) were fantastic. Thank you for helping make it an unforgettable evening!

Rebecca Kleemann(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 26-06-2021 My husband and I had our wedding reception at Gather and were incredibly pleased with our experience. We originally booked with the previous owners, but were delighted by how organized and professional Gather was as it was a far better experience we had with the previous owners. Sarah was incredibly organized and easy to work with in the planning process. Eric and the other day-of coordinator were organized, kind, and professional with staff that was the same. We got many compliments on how kind the staff was. They even packed up our centerpieces at the end of the night, which we were supposed to do. The food was tasty and many guests told us it was their favorite wedding food they'd had (short ribs and chicken were our choices). We love the industrial space and atmosphere of Deer District as it was inviting and fun for our guests. If that's the environment you're wanting, we highly recommend Gather. Reviewed on 17-11-2021
