Rhinegeist Brewery was the perfect place for our wedding! Since my husband and I met at a brewery, we couldn’t have imagined a more fitting venue for us. From booking the Clubhouse Annex to ironing out the details and finally celebrating the big day, the Rhinegeist team was so easy to work with and very communicative. Our coordinator, Katie, was incredible—she made sure everything ran seamlessly so we could truly relax and enjoy every moment. If we had to do it all over again, we’d choose Rhinegeist every time!

We had our ceremony and reception here and it was beautiful. There is a huge parking lot that made it easy for our guests who wanted to drive to do so and for our limo to pick us up. The entry way is spacious and has a security guard up front for the entire night. There was a beautiful staircase but also elevators for our guests with mobility issues. There were bathrooms both upstairs and downstairs as well. The venue itself is so beautiful we really needed minimal décor for it. There are awesome lights, barrels that were used as tables, and so much character to the space. Our bar package was through them as well. We hesitated when we saw the beer list (no IPS, craft, or seltzer options), but it ended up being perfect. Their open bar high-end option had plenty of other choices of liquor and wine our guests could also choose from and had a great time. The team did a great job – they set up all of the tables and chairs exactly like we wanted, did a great job running the bar, and gave us exactly what we needed. They were very kind and flexible with us as we asked questions throughout the process. Would highly recommend getting married here!
