South Second - A Saz's Hospitality Group Property

hey have so many things included making it a one stop shop for wedding venues. They took away the stress of finding a caterer, bar tenders and offered additional vendor support as needed. Perfect location for our guests to take a quick Uber/Lyft ride from their hotel. I cannot say enough good things about this place!!

whole process was so seamless and it was exactly what we wanted. From the beginning, our sales rep, Jaime, was very pleasant and supportive, formally introducing us to the space and answering all our beginner questions. From there, our event manager, Michelle, was super responsive and really helped us iron out everything else venue and catering related, including helping point us in the direction of who would be hired as our florist (Feisty Flowers) and DJ (David Charles Productions), both of whom have worked with South Second on numerous occasions. (Which, again, just made coordination and logistics super easy.) We were allowed as much or as little control over the visual things as we wanted, and had a very smooth process with great communication. Since we got married in April, we got a nice off-season discount, and found South Second to be very fairly-priced in general, especially considering how well-known Saz's is for their fantastic food, and that the catering is all wrapped us into the venue, which just means one less big logistical weight off our shoulders: we found our beautiful venue and delicious caterer all at the same time. The space is phenomenal. It's a lovely modern industrial vibe that fits the Walkers Point neighborhood perfectly. We loved that it's generally a big open main floor so it doesn't feel disconnected, but still has plenty of cool areas to explore. The lofted area and beautiful patio make it such a fun space. It's also got a great balance of simplicity that you can add your own decorative flair, but isn't so simple that it's boring without adding tons of decor to it. It's got great natural light and looks classy, and it was the perfect size for us (just under 100 guests) without feeling too large or too cramped. The food? SPECTACULAR. Our group tasting prior to the wedding was delicious, as was the food on the wedding itself. There are tons of options and we loved every bit of it. Honestly one of the only regrets we have from the day is that we didn't have more digestion time and stomach space to eat more, it was that food. (That's entirely on us though-we were not rushed by the venue in the least.) We had a buffet-style dinner, and I think places like South Second/Saz's are changing people's former impressions of what "buffet food" tastes like: it was all so fresh and unique and since we had such a wide assortment it was really great to be able to eat a bit of so many different things. Our guests definitely felt the same. The serving staff and bartenders were all very thoughtful, going above and beyond to make sure we were well taken care of. (To the point of bringing my husband and I a little plate of our hors d'oeuvres at dinner, just to be sure we had gotten to try a bit of each- something we had not mentioned anything about prior.) The whole crew helped the night feel very well-organized too. We've had many guests tell us how impressed they were by the space, the food, and the staff, and all of those helped make it a truly spectacular day for us. To us, it was a very easy and clear decision to choose South Second and Saz's from the beginning, and our opinions of them have only gone up from there. Truly could not recommend it enough.

lkers Point in Milwaukee. Communication with Michelle, the venue coordinator was great! She responded quickly to emails, answered all my questions, and made sure we felt prepared for the big day. Another big plus about choosing South Second was that Saz’s handled all of the catering/bar. The food was AMAZING! We were able to choose 3 custom stations and our guests could not stop raving about the food. I would highly recommend South Second and Saz’s catering!
