Located 75 miles east from Chicago, 30 miles west of South Bend, and 70 miles south of Kalamazoo, our one-of-a-kind distillery includes a full-service restaurant, gorgeous event spaces, lodging for up to 20 guests, and a 30,000-square-foot putting green.

“Before my now husband and I were even engaged we scoped out journeyman at their Valparaiso location for a potential wedding reception venue. My husband and I are Valparaiso University alumni. Valparaiso was where our love story began, and from the moment we went to dinner at Journeyman I knew it HAD to be the spot for our reception. The process could not have been easier, despite us living over 2000 miles away, all thanks to our amazing coordinator, Kaley! We cannot thank her and the Journeyman team enough for making our wedding PERFECT. We are huge foodies and have been to plenty of weddings where the meal was lackluster, but Journeyman was FANTASTIC. A ton of our guests even mentioned after that it was the best wedding food they ever had. The bar, of course, was incredible. The venue itself was perfect. We were able to utilize the rooftop patio and everyone loved it. If you are having a Valparaiso wedding there’s no question this is the spot you want!”
