    Excellent!

    I’ve worked multiple weddings at Turner Hall Ballroom, and it’s incredible! As the owner of Beauty Unveiled by Tia, a premier on-location hair and makeup company, I love this stunning historic landmark with its soaring ceilings, exposed brick, ornate details, and timeless charm that makes every bridal look absolutely shine. Highly recommend!

    Perfect Venue

    We had such an amazing time at our wedding thanks to the team at Turner Hall Ballroom! We worked with Ann, who was a big help before and during the wedding day. I knew we were in good hands with her. When we had questions, she was quick to respond. The whole staff was helpful and sweet. We love the unique space of Turner. We couldn't ask for a better venue that fit us as a couple.

And the space is absolutely beautiful, it fit our style and personalities so well. We 100% recommend Turner Hall! (Photos courtesy of Lo McCarville Photography)

    The perfect venue

    Huge accolades to Turner Hall and staff! This is one of our favorite places to see see live music in Milwaukee. It only made sense to celebrate our wedding there. The day was perfect! Absolute professionals and made sure everything went smoothly.

    Incredible venue and staff

    Turner Hall was the absolute perfect venue for our October 22 wedding reception. Ann was accommodating, had great recommendations for us, and everything went off without a hitch! Not to mention how gorgeous the space is. We wouldn’t have changed a thing and would absolutely recommend Turner Hall for a Milwaukee wedding!

    Excellent venue and staff

    Absolutely recommend!

    The venue is beautiful, which is obvious from checking out their website and social media. The Director of Private Events, Ann, was so responsive we didn’t feel the need to hire a wedding coordinator.

    Ann communicated timely with us and our vendors prior to the event, coordinated the appropriate staffing for the day of the event, and ensured everything went smoothly until every guest had left the venue.

    If you’re getting married in MKE, there isn’t a better venue. Our family and friends still comment on how much they enjoyed the space.

    Great experience

    Turner Hall began offering elopement packages during covid and my fiance (now husband) and I decided to take the opportunity as we’d always wanted a more intimate and less traditional wedding. We were able to accommodate up to 30 guests and add on items through the venue easily (and affordably!!) like an officiant, bar service, photographer, and catering. Their event director Ann Lennart was easy to get ahold of, answered all our questions and made sure our elopement would go smoothly, even when random things popped up like a huge event at the Fiserv she kept us informed on how it may affect us. We really liked the aspect of the elopement that you could basically fill your time however you wanted - it was great for us who didn’t want to stress over small details, just wanted our loved ones together for some food and celebration. The format of the elopement was a lot less formal than traditional weddings I’ve been to, but the staff seemed just as caring and professional as they would for a full scale formal event. I recommend Turner Hall for any type of wedding, it seems like they can accommodate a wide range!

    Wedding canceled due to Covid - but astounding experience through planning

    I have long loved Turner Hall for all it's charm and old Milwaukee character, and was thrilled for our wedding there. Unfortunately dues to Covid, we had to postpone our original wedding date, and finally cancel altogether, after it became clear that our postponed date wouldn't work either.

    From our initial tour, to pivoting and re-planning for a second date, and finally canceling, Ann (the Director of Private Events) was the absolute best. She was informative, responsive and flexible in an extremely hard time for both vendors and couples.

    While I am so sad we won't be getting married at Turner Hall, I wouldn't hesitate to encourage anyone looking for an extremely professional and kind wedding planning experience to book here. They went above and beyond every step of the way, and we are SO grateful for the Turner Hall team. If I could do it all over again, I would hire them in a heartbeat to host my wedding reception.

    Turner Hall is Amazing

    I sadly had to cancel my wedding at Turner Hall due to COVID restrictions. I toured about 15 venues in Milwaukee and Turner was easy to say yes to above all others. However, before canceling, my wedding was 90% planned and Ann @ Turner Hall was SO SO amazing to work with! I appreciate Ann being so flexible as well since we did end up having to cancel and Ann made the process so easy and helpful for our situation. I highly recommend having your wedding / any event at Turner!

    Iconic Milwaukee

    We had a large number of out of town guests, and really wanted a venue that captured Milwaukee. You can't beat iconic Turner Hall. The venue certainly has character, and our guests loved it. It looked stunning during our ceremony, and even better once night arrived with the string lighting and a band on the stage. Our guests raved about the venue. In addition, Ann was fantastic, helping us coordinate everything and the day/night went off without any hitches. The band sounded amazing, as did our accompaniment during the ceremony. We had a large (and thirsty) crowd, and despite that, the bar lines moved quickly and were never long. Turner Hall nailed it.

    Turner Hall - awesome venue!

    Having our wedding at Turner Hall was one of the best decisions we made while planning our wedding. They were open to new ideas, willing to help and made our wedding day totally stress free. We would highly recommend having a wedding at Turner Hall!

    A unique and memorable venue!

    From the beginning of wedding planning, Turner Hall was our first (and only!) choice as a reception venue. We were hoping that when we booked Turner Hall that everything would work out, since we didn’t really have a backup location. We were pleasantly surprised to not only get to work with Ann, but discover that she was truly one of the nicest and best vendors we got to work with throughout our entire wedding process.

    From our initial meeting, Ann was able to answer every single question we had. She was so knowledgeable about every detail of the planning and the day-of coordination that we instantly knew we were in good hands. Not only was she able to answer all our questions at the first meeting, but she was able to quickly respond to every email request that we had throughout wedding planning. Since we planned the wedding from out-of-town, having a vendor that responds to emails quickly was an added bonus.

    Additionally, she made a tremendous effort to make sure the process went as smooth as possible for us. We had different people organizing different parts of the reception and Ann didn’t bat an eye when it came to coordinating all the information. She was willing to work with each of us and meet with us (as many times as necessary!) to make sure that we were all satisfied. Furthermore, when we coordinated to drop things off for the reception a day early (which was amazing!), we had a few last-minute changes and she didn’t hesitate to let us know it would not be a problem and that they would have everything taken care of.

    Day-of, nothing could have gone better. Ann and her team are true professionals and made the day a complete success. We have gotten more compliments on how amazing the day wasWe would recommend Turner Hall for anyone looking for a beautiful, memorable, and unique reception venue.

    amazing venue

    We hosted our wedding at Turner Hall in Milwaukee. What an amazing building!! The architecture
    is beautiful , with the soaring windows, the beautiful balcony and staircases to the wooden floor. We hosted 215 guests and there was plenty of room to move about near your table and on the dance floor. Only downfall, not a lot of parking.

    Ann was great to work with - always answered emails and no question was to insignificant to answer. Ann brings a calmness that keeps the stress level down. Turner Hall is a beautiful venue. Ann's staff worked from set up until the end of the night. The air conditioner works great and the sound system is amazing! Thanks Ann, Turner Hall staff and bartenders for helping make my daughter's wedding a wonderful event!

    If my husband and I could describe Turner Hall Ballroom in one word it would be: BREATHTAKING. It was our first venue we visited and right when we met Ann and looked at it we knew that is where we wanted...NEEDED to have our wedding! Working with Ann was awesome! She makes sure that you and all of your guests will be happy and will also make sure that you do not need to stress. We would definitely recommend Turner Hall! Our guests cannot stop talking about how beautiful of a venue it is! If you book it, you will not regret it!!

    Turner Hall Ballroom was a beautiful and unique venue for our May 2017 wedding. We were immediately drawn to its character and history. As a nontraditional couple, we were thrilled to find a location that fit our personalities but was still lovely and accommodating. On top of this, Ann (the site coordinator) was an absolute treasure! We planned our event by ourselves; Ann was an invaluable resource and made sure the planning and day of went smoothly. She helped to coordinate all our vendors as well as drop off and pick ups. I highly recommend Turner Hall Ballrooms!

    We loved working with Ann and her staff at Turner Hall. Ann was very easy to work with, and responded to my emails within 24 hours. Even when I was completely panicked thinking that we had forgotten to do something or confirm something, Ann calmed me down just because of her easy-going attitude. She knows what she is doing when it comes to organizing events, and is very good at it! We also received countless compliments on Turner Hall. It's a beautiful space that is also very versatile.

    My husband and I were in love from the moment we first toured Turner Hall. The atmosphere was unlike any other wedding venue that we had seen. Fast forward to the planning process, and we couldn't have been happier. The staff was incredibly accommodating, responded promptly to emails, and all in all made the preparations go smoothly. On the day of the wedding, our coordinator went above and beyond to ensure that everything was proceeding as we had envisioned. We both wholeheartedly recommend Turner Hall!

    We had a wonderful experience at Turner Hall from the first visit through our wedding! Ann was extremely helpful and responsive to all of our questions and requests. Guests were impressed with the unique experience this venue provides. The wide selection offered at their full bar was a huge draw. We could not have asked for a better location to celebrate with family & friends and would recommend this location to anyone looking for a wedding venue.

Our wedding went off without a hitch, and one of the nicest things is that the ballroom itself is so beautiful, we did not need any decorations to jazz it up. A few candles here and there and our table centerpieces were all we needed. The staff was so helpful, it was as if we had wedding coordinators of our own.

    I was a little hesitant that a majority of our wedding budget was going to be spent on the venue and bar package with Turner Hall, but it was so worth it! The venue was amazing, staff was incredible and most importantly gave us memories to last a lifetime, not just for us, but our guests too. Whenever you need something or have questions, ask and (more often than not) you shall receive! The dressing rooms provided a great spot for our wedding party to get prepped in and our family with younger kids to hang out and take a break when they needed. We worked with Ann who was one of a kind. The service she helped provide was outstanding. A shout out to Al in security too who was great. We hope to be back for another wedding - we'll be referring all of our friends! Top notch. Thank you! -Becca & Scott

    When searching for a venue, we wanted something in downtown Milwaukee that was spacious (250+ guests) yet still had character (not a hotel ballroom) and provided coordinator services. Turner Hall Ballroom met theses qualifications and exceeded every expectation that we had. Ann and her team helped us execute a picture-perfect wedding day that ran smoothly. I'll admit, my mom was skeptical that the Ballroom would be able 'clean up' for a wedding after seeing it set up for a concert, but she and just about every one of our guests gushed about the beautiful venue. Take a look at the pictures on their new website and see how this great venue can be transformed to meet your needs. We also loved having our cocktail hour hosted in the balcony, the ability to choose our vendors and the great tap beer selection! Thank you Ann & Turner Hall Ballroom!

    We couldn't have picked a better venue for our wedding. Ann at Turner Hall and her entire staff were AMAZING leading up to the wedding and the day of. Turner Hall is a unique venue in that you can transform it to fit whatever theme you want. Our guests loved it and we loved it. Our pictures of the venue and at the venue were incredible and the price was right.

    Couldn't have been happier with the services provided by the team at Turner Hall Ballroom. They went above and beyond to help us build our vision for our wedding and to make sure that it went off without even a minor hitch. Highly recommended!

    Ann was an absolute pleasure to work with! I never worried about how professionally our event would be handled. She was very familiar with our vendors and they all worked together and communicated extremely well to allow our event to run smoothly. Even when our tables arrived 2 hours later than contracted, Ann and her staff pitched in to help our floral decorators make sure all was set by our arrival time. I would highly recommend this venue!

    The venue is absolutely beautiful and exactly what we were looking for. Ann was always quick to respond and amazing to work with throughout the entire process, leading up to the day of the wedding where the rest of the staff continued to provide wonderful service. Whether it was helping to make sure everything was set up how we wanted, or the bartenders making sure the bride and I never had an empty drink...we couldn't have had a better wedding day and Turner and its staff were a huge part of that.

    Turner Hall was the perfect venue! Working with Ann was the best - she made the planning stress-free. I cannot say enough good things about the whole experience - and the pricing is in line with other downtown Milwaukee venues. We would choose Turner Hall all over again if we could!

    We booked the Turner Hall Ballroom for our reception and it was a dream come true!! I felt lucky to have gotten such a great space, but it turned out to be even better than that. The staff was amazing to work with (though difficult to get a hold of at times) and worked with us and our other vendors to make sure that our day was everything we wanted it to be. The room was absolutely breathtaking and they were very flexible in terms of meetings, and letting us drop things off and pick them up after the wedding. The Turner Hall Ballroom is a beautiful venue that I would recommend without hesitation to anyone having a large wedding!!

    You won't regret it!!

    I'm so grateful this amazing space is available for weddings. Ann was incredibly easy to work with and patient with all of our questions throughout planning. The event crew and bartenders were super nice. Most of our vendors had worked in the space before which was incredibly helpful. Now that they added the booths upstairs there were comfortable spots to be all night - it was so fun and memorable! So much history and personality in the space.

    Simply the best!!

    I knew they were going to take care of us, but they went way above and beyond the call of duty to make sure my husband and I, our family, and our guests were well taken care of. It was in great part to them that the day was one we will remember for the rest of our lives.

    The event staff were positive, upbeat, and willing to help at all times. They brought our vision to life down to the finest details and took great care of our personal belongings. They were ready and available with any help I needed. Our bartenders were also fantastic and personable.

    It was incredibly special for my husband and I to get married at Turner Hall. A historic location and music venue in which we hold so many special memories. I am so grateful to have this venue and this staff in our city. Our guests raved about the building, its charm, and the staff all night and all the next day.

    I LOVED having my wedding ceremony and reception at Turner Hall! It has such a unique flare and vibe, people that attended our wedding are still talking about it 6 months later! The staff were on point and were wonderful to us and our family through out the whole wedding process. We would without a doubt recommend this venue to those who are looking for a special space that you were surely remember forever!

    The most magical night of our lives

    Our wedding at Turner Hall was an absolute dream come true. Ann is a rockstar - so professional, accommodating, and a great communicator who made all of our planning seamless and smooth. From the beginning of the ceremony to the end of the reception, everything went so smoothly thanks to the Turner Hall staff. The venue is absolutely stunning and we got so many compliments on how unique and special the entire night felt. We are so so happy that we chose Turner and got to work with such amazing professionals who helped make all of our dreams come true. Thank you to Ann & the whole staff for all your work in making it the best day ever!!

    This is a wonderful venue for couples looking to truly customize their experience. Because Turner doesn't require you to use specific vendors (outside of those vendors being licensed), you can truly customize the experience to be your own. As far as price goes, I think it was a good value considering we got the venue for 12 hours, but the extra costs did add up (Security, Lighting, Room flip). However, they have a very flexible beverage package which worked great for us.

    All in all, Turner Hall was the perfect venue for our day.

    Turner Hall was the perfect venue for our wedding! It is truly one-of-a-kind with its tall ceilings, stage, wood floors, not to mention it's history. It is in a great location, next to a ton of hotels, bars and restaurants. The event coordinators were very easy to work with and were very accommodating with all of our requests.

    Ann and the Turner Hall staff provided amazing help every step of the way - from our initial walk-through to the morning after our wedding when we returned to pick up our decorations. Ann was extremely responsive to emails, often replying within minutes. She consistently provided excellent help and information, no matter how many times I emailed her and no matter how major or minor my questions were. The day of the wedding went off without a hitch. Turner Hall is kind of a blank canvas, which is great for really personalizing your event, but can seem complicated when coordinating a million different vendors and deliveries to the venue. Ann and the Turner team took that day-of stress away by making sure all vendors knew where to go. Beyond all that, Turner Hall is an amazingly gorgeous space to hold a wedding, with lots of character. Our guests who hadn't been there before seemed pretty blown away. Overall, I would recommend this venue to anyone who is willing to do a bit more work during the planning process (or anyone who has a few helpers), since it does require external vendors for nearly everything (except the bar). But if you think wedding planning is fun like I did, then you can't go wrong with Turner Hall.

    Great Staff, Great Venue, Great Experience!

    Turner Hall was intended to be our wedding reception venue in August 2020. We had always admired this historic venue being avid music lovers and had the memory of our first concert date together there. When COVID changed our plans, we postponed our contract, payments, and vendors to August 2021 in hopes to celebrate a 1 year anniversary party at that time (as we still performed a small wedding ceremony in 2020). Ann and team were incredible to work with from our original planning to moving everything to a new date when things were unpredictable. She was prompt, professional, and so organized which made planning a large party more manageable knowing we had the experts in the business!

    After waiting nearly 2 years to use Turner's space, I was speechless walking into the ballroom on our Anniversary day! I had been there countless times for fun and planning, but it was transformed within hours! Our guests loved the space, especially using the balcony for cocktail hour and AV did a great job handling our wedding highlight film on the projector. The night ran so smoothly between Esmeralda, the coordinator and their preferred vendors. The bartenders were amazing and couldn't say enough about how great our party group was and we were so grateful for their help and service to keep everyone happy and having fun! We also had the opportunity to get rooftop photos done during the night which was a special memory! We didn't want the night to end, but when it did- Turner took care of handling all our take down so we could enjoy the after party. When we arrived the next day, they had everything waiting for us to pick up and bring home! So easy and much appreciated. The space and the team were incredible-- well worth the wait! :)

    Although the venue can be a little on the pricier side, my fiancé and I think it is well worth it and are beyond excited to have our ceremony and reception at Turner Hall Ballroom. Ann, the Events Coordinator, provided us with an excellent tour and even allowed us to view the space again with my parents when she was busy setting up for an event. Although she was busy, she was still checking in to answer any of our questions and give us suggestions. The space is rustic, beautiful and holds a great deal of history. Another plus is they are very accommodating for larger guest lists. Bar packages are customizable so we aren't going to have to pay an arm and a leg for beverages with such a larger guest list. Again, we are beyond excited!

    We couldn't have chosen a more perfect venue for our wedding ceremony and reception--we loved Turner Hall Ballroom for our special day! Our guests kept the compliments pouring in all night about how much they loved the setting. The transformation of the sunlight during the ceremony to the string and pillar lighting for the cocktail hour and reception gave each its own unique ambience. No additional decorations were needed since the space was so beautiful on its own. The balcony was the perfect space for cocktails and hors d'oeuvres as the main ballroom was transitioned; also a great viewpoint for photos. The staff was easy to work with and took care of all the details--even pointed out things we would have missed otherwise. If only we had a reason to throw another party there!

    We had a very positive experience with our wedding at Turner Hall! The venue looked beautiful and the team was very helpful. There were a couple times during the planning process when we had to ask for information or request follow-up when I would have expected the team to be a bit more proactive. Additionally, some small issues of keeping track of payments that could have been avoided. In terms of flexibility, I'm sure this is a common request, but being able to bring in alcohol instead of being required to purchase from the venue would have been a perk.

    Overall, a great experience having our wedding here, especially for a large guest list and would definitely recommend it.
