Date of visit: October 24, 2025…read more We hadn't heard of this venue before attending a wedding here but were pleased with the space! There's plenty of room for tables, a DJ, and a dancefloor and you can bring in your own vendors, which was perfect for our friends. There is a small bar area just outside of the main room, which was a great space if you wanted to talk as the separation allows conversation to flow a little easier but also a space to welcome your guests. My understanding is that you have to wrap things up by 11 p.m. so that may be a deal breaker for some hardcore partiers but otherwise this was a great space with plentiful street parking (unless there's a Bucks game going on, then it may be a bit more of a challenge) in the area, too.

UPDATE: I went to Cuvee a couple of weeks ago with some co-workers, one of which who claimed to…read morelove champagne as much as I. It was a Thursday about 10pm. Doors Locked. Should I be sad?! Angry?! I was both. I finally called to ask if the hours had changed. It's not that the hours have changed, per say, but the business has changed. The New business model is event space only and no longer open to the public. Whilst this makes me incredibly sad as that was my hidden spot and the only champagne bar in Milwaukee it's bittersweet because of course a great success for the business in that they have enough event reservations to sustain it alone. Will someone else please open a champagne bar? (with bigger glasses -- now I know I'm asking too much!) Cuvee was one of my places... my hidden places to take people for the first time because I always knew 9 times out of 10 no one knew about it. The access to the building from the street was a complete mystery and an adventure on it's own as people would ask: "Where are you taking me". Silence I would remain... for I didn't want to take away from the journey. Oh and also, I quite simply love, love, love champagne. My only issue with champagne is the tiny, skinny little glass that it comes in. Makes me sad just thinking about the littleness of a champagne glass... *tears up*

I got engaged recently and emailed back and forth with the event coordinator finally settling on a…read moreday and time for a showing. When I arrived, 10 min early, the elevator was locked to reach that floor. I called twice and went to voicemail and also emailed to let them know I was waiting. After waiting 15-20 min after our scheduled time we asked another vendor in the building if they had any access to that floor or another phone number for us and we were informed that when a floor is locked that means no one is present in the space. It's been hours and I still haven't heard back... Extremely frustrated with the lack of service and shocked that I was willing to spend so much money on a place with such poor regard for their guests.

The bartenders were on their game. They did an OUTSTANDING job and we couldnt thank them more. Fast forward to mid summer and I have probably golfed their over 75 times. We became members right before our wedding and have absolutely loved it ever since. The staff is very nice and friendly and the members are also very chill. Its very easy to become friends with other members. Its the perfect club to join if youre not into the snobby rich people, these people are just rich and nice. You can't beat it. Young and old all are welcome.

When we booked the Valerie it was still in the building phases and we only had the pictures of the visions Matty had. We are so glad we believed in Matty's vision because the venue is breathtaking. The venue just insanely beautiful from the suites, to the ceremony space, to the reception space, to the bars, and even the bathrooms. The communication the Valerie provides is top notch! They are always quick to respond which is amazing when you are planning the wedding. Matty is always willing to help whether it's with giving recommendations or helping answer questions. He also makes contact with the vendors you chose to talk to them about everything you need to know about the venue! The day of the wedding was amazing, Matty and the point of contact helped so much to keep the day running smoothly. The bartenders were also amazing. My husband and I have said many times over how we wish we could come up with another event to throw just so we can book this venue again!
