Lawrence University Warch Campus Center Reviews

Can't recommend this venue enough to engaged couples. It's Appleton's best kept secret. Seriously. If this venue was in a bigger city, they would be able to charge a LOT more. The Somerset Room is gorgeous. You don't even have to do much decorating--your guests will be impressed with the modern architecture and design. Plus, there's a great view of the Fox River. The food is very very good and there's a lot of variety. You definitely don't feel like you are getting typical wedding food. Plus, Angie and Lola are fantastic to work with. They are incredibly dedicated to making your day great. And they are experts. They pay attention to all the details that you may not even consider. Everyone commented on the wait staff--when dinner was served, all of the wait staff came out at once and served the first tables simultaneously. It was like it was choreographed. VERY cool and a VERY memorable part of the night. It's just a nice touch that guests will appreciate.

My wedding was at The Warch Center at Lawrence University. I worked with Lola the catering director and she was great to work with. She always answered all my questions promptly and was on top of everything. The venue is beautiful and I would say the prettiest in Appleton. The food was great and everything was very organized. My DJ that has been working in the business for many years said wow I've never seen someplace so organized with the timeline and things. Overall I would recommend to anyone looking to get married

What a beautiful venue! The floor-to-ceiling glass windows in the Pusey and Somerset Rooms provide for an unbeatable view. The natural lighting from the setting sun created an intimate and romantic atmosphere during dinner. The staff we worked with through the entire process were extremely accommodating and well organized. It was very nice having the catering company and venue working in a joint effort - we were able to meet with both at the same time to plan out the entire evening in one meeting.

One extremely nice feature at this facility is their Audio/Video setup. The over-sized projector screen was perfect for playing a slideshow during dessert. The speaker system and microphones made the speeches easy to hear and understand from anywhere in the room. You get a dedicated A/V tech to help out during the reception, which was perfect for a surprise song from the groom to the bride. I was able to plug in my guitar and sing in to the microphone so everyone was able to hear. Overall, this is a great venue with a great catering company to go with it. Everything went very smoothly from planning day 1 through the actual event.

Wow! That is all I have to say! This place is so beautiful. The building is also as "green" as it gets, constructed from 95% recycled material. It doesn't get better than this for an amazing place for eco-friendly folks.

We had our wedding reception (dinner and dance) in the Warch Campus Center at Lawrence University in Appleton, WI. Everything was perfect. The people on campus were so easy to work with. The room cost was very reasonable. They had a very kind security person present and a knowledgeable tech person staffed the whole night. The projector broke the previous day but they more than accommodated us so we could still present a slide show. We wish we could have our wedding a hundred times over and we would definitely do it a hundred times again at the Warch Campus Center!

Loved everything the view the layout most of the staff was wonderful. the food was amazing. There was one staff member that did make it awkward by hovering, A little overbearing. and Despite her I would have not changed a thing.

We had our reception, both dinner and dancing at the Warch Campus Center, more specifically the Somerset and Pusey rooms on the Lawrence University Campus. The event went great and everything was perfect.

The only reason I took a few points of my rating was because the person that we were initially dealing with left and then there was a new guy and he never really got to know us. He only worked 2 or 3 days a week for the campus center and the rest is a different part of campus so he was difficult for us to get in contact with a couple times. Granted we always got in touch with him and he was as helpful as he could be.

The view is beautiful from the Somerset and Pusey rooms looking over the river above the trees as the sun is setting.
