The Bog Reviews
Andrea Henning(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 04-01-2020 The Barn at The Bog is such an incredible venue with top of the line staff!! We are more than happy that we chose The Barn as our wedding reception. The venue itself is just incredibly beautiful creating that rustic/elegant wedding reception venue. KD, the event coordinator, went above and beyond to accommodate our personal requests. The planning meetings and preparations leading up to the big day were very professional and we felt more than prepared leading up to our wedding weekend. KD had great communication throughout the entire process, always responding in a timely manner. We knew what to expect because the meetings were so helpful. The staff followed the agenda so well, keeping the day running so smoothly. We received many compliments by our guests regarding the staff The Bog provided, so thank you very much! The atmosphere, food, bar menu, and experience was more than exceptional! We are more than happy to have had The Barn as our wedding venue! We will be recommending this venue to anyone we know. Thank you KD and the entire Bog staff for helping make our wedding day one of the best! We are forever grateful. Have your wedding at The Barn at The Bog, it will be one of the best decisions you will make in the wedding process!! Reviewed on 09-02-2020

The Barn at the Bog is an absolutely incredible venue. It is so beautiful, a perfect mix of rustic barn and classy! Besides its beautiful venue everyone was a pleasure to work with, good communication as well as happy to accommodate any changes. Megan was wonderful the day of and was always checkin in throughout the day/night to see if we needed anything. I would 100% recommend this venue! Reviewed on 28-09-2023

Erin Roberts(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 07-10-2022 The Bog was the perfect venue for our style! Couldn’t have found a better place to have our reception. The food was absolutely to die for!

Ann A(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 30-07-2022 The Staff at the Bog was resourceful, punctual and energetic throughout our wedding planning and day of process. We were very happy with the bogs willingness to accommodate special requests (swapping out food choices & decor install assistance) for our wedding. We used the Clubhouse location for a wedding around 100 people, we enjoyed the more intimate vibes yet really like all the different options for Guests to mingle (ex., patio/fire pit/ the greens steps away). The breathtaking sunset and fresh air with little to no noise pollution was a cherry on top of our magical day. We appreciate the bog and all that they provided along with all the work they did to make our event so memorable! We would recommend them, and our guests were impressed as well.

Nathan Friese(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 30-04-2022 We had our wedding at The Bog on 4/30/22. It was the perfect venue, we had both our ceremony and reception there. Andrea was very responsive to all of our questions and really helped with the planning portion. Our final guest count was around 180 which I thought was perfect for the size of the venue. The upstairs did get a little tight with during the room flip but the staff did it so fast that guests were able to go back downstairs in no time. The staff was amazing getting the dinner out quickly, and it was delicious. The venue itself is gorgeous and didn't need to many extra decorations to make it even prettier. We thought the price was reasonable compared to other vendors in the area and the proximity to Milwaukee/airport. We would recommend this venue and would love to go back to a wedding here in the future. Reviewed on 19-05-2022
Nicole Eichline(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 23-04-2022 The venue is absolutely beautiful and worth every penny when you can utilize the additional outdoor space. The day of the event went very smoothly. We were not able to get in to set up until 2 hours before our event started, but it worked out that we had a family member set up while we took pictures. The food is amazing! We were not able to do a tasting as they only do them during the week and we were from out of town, but we were not disappointed with the Italian buffet on the day of. We did a set amount of kegs and wine during the night and it was great how they had cups prefilled for people to grab without waiting in line. We had some trouble with the in house mics during speeches which was unfortunate because most people could not hear the speeches, but I'm sure they could work on adjusting the volume to work better. Overall I heard many many positive reviews from our guests! Chuck was great to work with and came in on a weekend to answer questions and let my now husband see the venue. It was a beautiful day!

Pamela Steffen(guest)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 02-10-2021 I attended the wedding of a close friend at The Bog this past fall. I have to say it was one the most incredible venues and weddings that I have been to. The Barn and wedding site were beyond beautiful, the staff professional and friendly. Chuck and Andrea made sure every detail was taken care of. Truly a fabulous day! Reviewed on 07-01-2022
Stacey Thomas(other)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 19-06-2021 What an amazingly stunning venue! We have attended several events here and now have the pleasure of hosting our Son’s wedding.

Kelsey Westphal(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 11-12-2021 Honestly it was our dream wedding venue. I think we booked the day we saw it! Andrea is the most amazing person that any bride could ever work with. Planning a wedding is all new to anyone who does it and Andrea is going to make sure you understand everything from your options toCost break down to set up etc. Our guest were in awe of this venue and so were we even though we had seen it multiple times. We want to have our 10 year wedding celebration here because we loved it that much! We hope you read this review if you are between 2 and pick the bog because we promise it will be worth it!

We loved the idea of having our wedding at a barn and the fact we found one on a golf course too, just so happy! The venue was so beautiful that we did not have to decorate much! The direct person we worked with was very kind and responsive to all emails (she is no longer there). The day of was amazing! They were busy with our wedding and a golf outing but still on top of everything! All staff that helped were extremely professional. No complaints! They also have a private on site ceremony site!

Joshua Ritter(groom)1 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 03-10-2020 My wife and I had our wedding at The Barn in October. The venue itself is quite nice and the cost is very reasonable, but we had an absolutely terrible experience with the staff.First of all, the on-staff wedding planners kept quitting. The lady we initially signed with left without informing us, then her replacement left a few months later. This led to a LOT of confusion and problems for us the day of the wedding. I know staff changes are not entirely The Bog's fault, but their communication with us and among their staff was inexcusably poor.Worse than that, though, was their teenage staff. They hired high school aged kids for every aspect of the wedding and, frankly, it seemed like the kids felt they were too good for the work that they were doing. The grounds crew flat out refused to sweep the venue and I had my groomsmen walking around picking up dozens of cigarette butts and dead worms an hour before the ceremony. When we confronted them about this, one of the teenage staff members told my best man \"I will cut you\" and walked off.My bride's wife also had a bad experience with the teenage kitchen staff. The staff was supposed to distribute 150 cupcakes to our guest, but they ended up leaving all but twenty of them in the freezer. They did not bring out plates and they argued with my mother-in-law when she asked them to just bring out the cupcakes saying \"We can't. It's not in the notes\".I understand that COVID-19 can make it hard to hold on to staff. I understand that staff turnover makes it hard to run a smooth event. I even understand that frustration breeds frustration. However, I cannot recommend a venue that would hire kids who deliberately antagonize the wedding party and refuse to do their jobs. That is unneeded stress on your wedding day. Reviewed on 24-11-2020
Kristin Laux(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 14-12-2019 When we walked in to the Barn it was still under construction, but I knew it was the place! K.D. made the whole process simple, transparent, and in the end, perfect. Chuck was literally a magician the weekend of the wedding and great to have onsite! The food was delicious, the staff lovely, the venue beautiful and the day perfect. We could not have asked for anything more to make this moment with friends and family the most perfect day ever. Thank you, K.D, Chuck and the Bog team! Reviewed on 16-12-2019
Cadie Roberts(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 10-08-2019 The Bog was gorgeous! K.D was so wonderful helping out with absolutely everything! I had so many questions and added things super last minute, but she handled it all! The staff working our wedding were wonderful, super helpful and knowledgeable. Ken was great taking us around the course for pictures, he knew all of the best spots! I would definitely recommend the Bog for a wedding! Reviewed on 21-08-2019
Chiree Boden(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 17-08-2019 The bog is beautiful and a wonderful place to have a wedding! What makes it perfect though are the people that work there! K.D. and Chuck helped make our wedding dreams come true! They were always just a phone call or an email away when I had 1 million questions. They were very flexible and easy to work with! The price is a plus as well! They even had workers take us out in golf carts to take some amazing pictures on a wonderful golf course!! I would highly recommend the Bog to anyone!!

The rustic yet classy space we used was smaller with a stone fireplace. We were taken on the golf course for pictures in various spots and they were very accomodating in allowing us to bring a surprise for my groom! We could not afford the buffet options listed so they helped us work out an alternative that was delicious and affordable. Reviewed on 28-10-2018
Amanda Prinsen(bride)1 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 23-06-2018 My fiance and I were very excited about The Bog. Not only for the price point, but the location and services they offered as well. We set up an appointment to see the space and hopefully choose a date and submit a down payment. We showed up to our appointment (which we had made a month before) and waited 45 minutes. The event planner never showed up. The bartender told us that she would show us around, showing us things that we could've seen by ourselves and she could not answer any of our questions because she didn't know the answers. It has been a week and a half and we have not heard anything from the event planner, such as an apology for not showing up to our meeting. If The Bog handles showings in such a manner, how reliable can they be on the actual wedding day? We were not pleased and would not recommend this venue, simply for the lack of professional and courteous service we received. Reviewed on 13-06-2016

I absolutely loved having my wedding at the Bog. Everyone commented on how delicious the food was. The staff was amazing- they volunteered to help set up and had everything organized the night of the reception so I could come pick up items the following day. They were willing to work with me to allow my dogs on the grounds because it was important to me to have them there. They were also very excellent with service- the food was ready very quickly and the staff were extremely nice. The grounds are also very gorgeous for pictures and they allowed us to use golf carts to take a few people out for pictures on their grounds- for those who don't know these include ponds, board walks and many wildflower areas which are breathtaking. They also were very flexible and open to any decorations that I wanted to use in the space. When I didn't have a power cord long enough they noticed and brought me one without my even having to ask. They set up a very nice space to eat and sit and a separate area with a dance floor. The communication is beyond excellent and Carissa was always open to discussing any ideas I had and working to make them come alive. I would highly recommend the Bog to anyone interested!

We had a great experience with the Bog. Carissa was very helpful in getting everything set up for the day. She promptly answered all of my emails and phone calls. We had the need for a gluten free meal, which was no problem with them. Then I had to add a second gluten free meal just days before the wedding, and that was also no problem. The service the day of the wedding was excellent. The staff is very friendly and helpful. They were also extremely nice in helping us set up for and take down the decorations. We were also given a golf cart to take pictures around the course, and the gentleman that helped us was also very nice. I highly recommend The Bog for your reception. Reviewed on 14-07-2015
