An Amazing Day with Amazing Vendors

Lisa and the team at Goose Island were truly incredible. We had an amazingly smooth process with this venue and could not recommend it enough. At every corner they were willing to be flexible and accommodate things we might need, answer any questions and make room for some very untraditional events through our wedding. Everything was seamless and perfect and we could not have asked for a better venue or team. Goose Island was already a huge part of our lives, but now it forever will be. We love these people so much and again, we highly recommend this venue.

A beautiful and unique wedding venue!

Lisa and the whole team over at Goose Island BH were phenomenal for our wedding this past weekend! When touring venues, my husband and I fell in love with the space right when we walked in. Our guests absolutely loved the space, we got so many compliments on it! They even have the option to do a couple brewery tours during cocktail hour which were such a hit with our guests as well! The whole staff was friendly and smiling the whole time, we didn’t have any complaints! Thank you for making a special day even better!!

Perfect venue for vows and reception!

We couldn't recommend Goose Island Barrel House enough for throwing both a wedding and reception! Courtney and her team made the processes effortless from the initial venue walk-through, up until we picked up our decor the day after. Between Courtney and our other vendors, there was no need to hire an event planner.

The day of the wedding/reception was absolute perfection. The valet service was super convenient and the house staff made our guests feel welcomed and cared for. We had 100 guests and there was plenty of space for vows, dinner, and the dance floor without needing to rearrange the space. The cellar also added extra space for guests to mingle and eat dessert/late night snacks.

The overall vibe feels upscale, but casual and comfortable enough to accommodate any wedding theme.

We can't wait to throw a party here again soon!

We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
