We would absolutely recommend Ludlow Mansion to anyone in a heartbeat. The features of the venue eliminated so much wedding planning stress, and Penny, Greg, and all the staff were always willing to go above and beyond with answering questions and ensuring the day was problem-free. The banquet hall for dinner, carriage hall for dancing, bar with seating, and outdoor seating offered guests multiple places to gather during the reception. A two-night stay in the mansion was included in our package, which was such a relief for logistics and peace of mind knowing sleep after a long night was just steps away! Their decor catalog saved me hundreds if not thousands of dollars in online decor purchases. On-site getting ready rooms were spacious and perfect. Ludlow Mansion truly provides an elevated wedding experience with friendly and accommodating people, while staying in a more rural part of Wisconsin.

We could not have had a better experience for our wedding venue. Penny and Greg are the best and helped us every step of the way. Our whole weekend ran incredibly smooth and everything turned out exactly as we envisioned. Everyone at the venue was so helpful in the planning and setup process. Staying on site made everything so easy throughout the weekend, and we loved getting to hang out in the mansion. I can not recommend Ludlow Mansion enough - they will help make your wedding day absolutely perfect.

nd flexible. The mansion allows you to truly make your wedding how you want. It can fit many different budgets and offers a variety of ceremony locations. We planned on having our ceremony outside but due to weather, we made a last second change to have it inside. It was great to have an indoor option. We had to set the chairs up ourselves but that took no time with the amount of people around to lend a hand. Getting the package that allows you to have the mansion from noon on Friday to noon on Sunday allows you to enjoy your weekend even more. It was great to not have to rush and set things up how you envisioned. Overall the Mansion allowed up to have an incredible, stress free Wedding, 10/10 would recommend.

Ludlow Mansion is a first-rate option for a wedding venue outside of Madison. Monroe, WI is pretty rural but the couple running Ludlow are as professional as anyone/anything you'd ...

find downtown. My son & his wife were married at Ludlow in May and we were extremely happy with how it all went. The food & drink display in the bar area during the cocktail hour was especially beautiful (guests are still raving about it!). The rooms in the mansion itself are in need of some updating – which is already scheduled to take place – but were still impressive. Mostly, though, the flexibility, helpfulness, and personal touch of the husband-wife owners, Greg & Penny, really made the weekend a success. Sincere thanks and high recommendation!

n. Being able to use the venue’s own catalog of decorations and add-ons was so much more convenient for us than trying to buy, store, and transport it ourselves. We found the venue super affordable, and the mansion that we, and part of our wedding party stayed in over the weekend were absolutely stunning. We’ve received so many compliments on how beautiful everything was for our reception and we owe so much of that to Greg and Penny at Ludlow Mansion Events!

h space. The package we purchased allowed us to use the venue for the entire weekend which was really nice. We had our rehearsal dinner there and our gift opening brunch on Sunday. We also had a two night stay included with our package. The room was right on the property. It was nice to be able to go there after a long day and get a good nights rest.
