Dream Wedding turned into Reality

My husband and I can't rave enough about Upper East and the exceptional experience they provided for our wedding! From the moment we stepped foot into this enchanting venue, we were captivated by its timeless charm and light and airy atmosphere.

Katie, our coordinator, was an absolute gem! Her attention to detail and genuine passion for making our day perfect was evident in every aspect of the planning process. She went above and beyond to ensure that every element, from helping with decor and floral set up to the time she directed us down the aisle, was executed flawlessly.

The team at Upper East truly knows how to create a magical atmosphere. The picturesque setting provided the most breathtaking backdrop for our special day, leaving our guests in awe. The seamless flow of the event, thanks to Katie's expert coordination, allowed us to relax and savor every moment.

The catering was exquisite, and the staff were attentive and professional. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the delicious cuisine and impeccable service. The Spring tasting event made it so effortlessly easy to try what our guest experienced. Both my husband and I come from large Italian families so food concern was a big part of our wedding and they did not fail!!

Choosing Upper East and having Katie as our coordinator was the best decision we made for our wedding. They turned our dreams into reality, and we will cherish the memories forever. If you're searching for a venue that exudes sophistication and a coordinator who is dedicated to making your day unforgettable, look no further than Upper East!

Amazing Experience

I cannot recommend Upper East enough! The venue is so naturally beautiful and with all the decorations it was perfect. Also, the Upper East team is phenomenal, the food was delicious, and Hanni and her team made the day flow so smoothly. Everything was exactly as I’d imagined and I didn’t have to worry about a thing. It was truly a wonderful experience!

Hanni
Chief Operations Officer

Hi, my name is Hanni and I am the Chief Operations Officer for our parent company, Culinary Infusion. After living in Seattle and Tampa, I relocated back to Wisconsin when my family was transitioning from a catering company into venue owners. I have been a part of the planning and design for every detail of our three venues —- Circa on Seventh, The Covenant at Murray Mansion, and Upper East.

I’m an entrepreneur at heart —– both of my parents and grandparents were self-employed, so that’s all that I knew growing up. I’ve been working in the wedding industry on and off for over 20 years (my first job was working waitstaff at a golf course venue), and absolutely love everything about it. This industry is ever changing, so our creative muscles are always being flexed, and the relationships that are made last well beyond wedding day.

When I’m not working, my four kiddos (Adelaide, Carson, and our identical twins Molly and Gwen) keep me very busy! If there’s any free time left in there, you can definitely find me listening to a podcast, playing in the garden, or hanging out on the pier at our family’s lakehouse.

On behalf of our entire team, welcome to the Culinary Infusion family!

Event Specialist

Hello! I’m Katie, and after being a bride at one of our exclusive venues, I joined the team in spring 2022. I loved planning my own wedding —- watching all the small details come together that you’ve been focusing on for months is the best feeling. In this role, I am able to ensure that our couples’ perfect day goes off without a hitch! There is no better feeling!
