The Wagner House

l, about how perfect this was.

agined it could be. Between the flexibility they allowed with making the day exactly how I pictured it, to helping with set up and tear down, and everything in between. She answered every question I had, and even the ones I didn’t think to ask. She was available from the time we started getting ready early in the morning, till the last guest left. Wagner House was so accommodating with everything: Coordinating with all our other vendors, getting last minute touches in place, and helping keep the day run smoothly from ceremony to reception. As an added bonus, our photographer already gave us a sneak peek, and the space photographs SO BEAUTIFULLY. Overall, 10/10, so glad we chose Wagner for our big day.

istent with communication throughout the planning process. On the day of set up and the wedding, she gave us her phone number and told us she would be in her office during everything if we needed her. We needed her multiple times and we could never find her- she was unreachable literally every time we went to look for her. Overall we loved our wedding, just understand you need to be prepared to do everything yourself.

. The space is incredible; a hot combo of urban meets rustic meets industrial. Wood floors, exposed brick walls, beamed ceilings and stringer lights overhead. Their flexibility was actually astonishing. From who we could use for any vendors, accessible the day before to set up and option to come back on Sunday to clean up (for a fee but it was very affordable). Food at our tasting was incredible and we were so excited for our wedding day. Unfortunately, in true 2020 fashion, sh*t hit the fan for the second time in November and we had to cancel our full wedding. I cannot stress this enough, working with Megan to adjust our plans 100% 6 days before our wedding was as easy as it possibly could have been. She was quick to respond, helpful with suggestions and flexible in making our changes and still figuring out how to have our small ceremony in the space we loved so much. Although our day was not what we originally expected it to be, it was still the most beautiful day we would relive 100 times over, all thanks to Megan. If you are looking for a wedding venue, look no further. This is your place.

he staff was also helpful and professional. This venue was everything we could have imagined and we recommend it to anyone in the Freeport area.

e or day special. We couldn't have been happier with the venue, catering, or overall experience. The Wagner house is an old building, likely from the early 1900's and they kept old time feel. with lots of old exposed brick and wood, you can feel the history of the place. The owners have brought some modern charm to the building, without sacrificing any of the aesthetic. I'd say that the space could work for just about any wedding, as they can adapt to just about any theme. There are 3 floors, and the top two are reserved for events, meaning you can have your ceremony on one floor, and reception on the other. A big selling point to us was the elevator, which allowed for guests who can't do the stairs to access the entirety of the venue. And then there's the food! For simplicities sake, we decided to go with the in house catering. The tasting that followed showed us their chef's skills, and we were not disappointed. Even the garlic chicken, which anywhere else is usually basic, was mouth wateringly good. What blew me away was that the food we tasted came out exactly the same for each person at the wedding. So the food we got was consistently high quality! Overall, the experience was outstanding, and the Wagner House was an integral part of our special day. As with every wedding there were few snafus, but The Wagner house corrected them, and then went above and beyond! I would recommend them to any couple looking for a venue.

ig day was perfect! Their staff was fun and engaging and made our guests feel right at home which in turn kept our guests at our party for most of the evening. Another bonus- we were able to come in to tear down our reception space the following morning rather than staying late after the reception. We loved the intimate, industrial feel of the building and would highly recommend it to anyone.
