Wonderful Wedding

I had the most magical wedding at Discovery World. Madeline was the best coordinator I could have ever had. She went out of her way to make sure my day was everything I needed it to be.

Wonderful experience

The Pilot House was a wonderful place to hold a wedding and reception. The location is perfect with the water and MKE skyline 2 or your backdrops. Madeline was wonderful to work with and helped us through the entire planning, no need to hire a wedding planner! The cocktail hour in the museum was very fun and enjoyed by the guests. Last but not least the food was excellent. We had many people from all over the country commenting on the delicious food!

Everything was perfect!

Our guests had nothing but positive things to say about the venue, view, staff, food, & overall experience! We were so thankful we worked with Madeline, because we never had to worry about anything & everything was very efficient + organized! From the initial menu tasting to the final invoice, everything was so clear, and the invoices were straightforward. All of the staff were so polite & friendly, so we definitely felt we were in good hands. I really appreciated the special accommodations that were made for me and our guests with allergies! The room was beautiful & exactly what I had envisioned. We really appreciated how structured the whole process was, such as the instructional email for dropping off decor (with pictures!) and the policies on the invoices. We felt reassured that it was all laid out with what we could/couldn't do, because it reflected how experienced they were. We knew we could relax that day while they provided the highest level of service. Also, so many staff members came to check on me throughout the night & made sure we were as content as possible!
We wanted to specifically point out that Madeline’s level of professionalism and expertise were very much appreciated throughout the planning process! We can't express how reassuring it was to have her on our team, because it felt like she was always thinking about our vision of the day! It just felt like everything was taken care of & she helped us think of everything, so nothing was missed in the end. It can be quite intimidating planning a wedding for the first time, as I'm sure everyone knows that there are so many expectations/traditions that guests come in with. Madeline helped us so much to consider what we should add or what might be unnecessary. Especially with everything on Pinterest/social media, we just felt that she always considered what was essential to our day, instead of adding everything that could be thought of. I think it is more that we felt like we weren't being taken advantage of/just a way to make money, which is something that can't be said about all wedding vendors & venues. We felt like she really listened to us & made it personal to us as a couple. We would highly recommend having any event at Discovery World with Madeline! We have received so many compliments from our guests about how wonderful the reception was & felt it was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding!
