Chapel Of The Archangels 

5.0

Beaver Dam, WI
  • Up to 235 guests

  • Starts at $4,000

The Chapel was finished in 1905 and was in use until 2007 when the 3 Catholic Parishes (St. Michael’s, St. Patrick’s, and St. Peter’s) merged into one. The new Parish is now known as St. Katharine Drexel Parish. In November 2010 we purchased the church from St. Katharine Drexel Parish. A lifeless shell that had been empty for 3 years, we hope to revitalize this stately building, share its beauty and grandeur with the community, and open it to all who are looking for a unique space to hold events. Opening in mid-summer of 2011, Chapel of the Archangels is limited only by your imagination, we offer a great place to hold weddings, wedding receptions, anniversaries, vow renewals. The sky’s the limit! We also offer a convenient reception hall, meeting and educational facility in the Angel’s Den downstairs, complete with bar, kitchen facilities, and Wi-Fi. We are a non-denominational facility. We are also handicapped accessible to both the main sanctuary and to the basement via the elevator.

When my (now) husband and I got engaged, soon the reality set in that I was now to become a full time wedding planner. The checklists started getting made with the first one on the list being “find a venue”. We knew we wanted an elegant, upscale, timeless wedding. The first thing that came to mind was an outdoor country club wedding. After touring a few, we realized this was not what we wanted due to unpredictable weather, inconvenience for out of town guests, and rustic vibes we were not trying to go for. Family recommended The Concourse so I reached out to Kylie. During our first tour we knew this was where we wanted to get married. The elegant experience that The Concourse provides is unmatched. (My favorite part being the neutral carpet, no one wants bright red or blue carpet in your wedding pictures.) During one of the most stressful times, stressing about weather and rain is something you can easily take off your plate by being indoors. This venue is perfect to have everything in one place from the rehearsal, to the ceremony, to the reception. Kylie is not only helpful, but goes above and beyond to make your day perfect. She is there every step of the way in the months and days leading up to the big day to make sure your vision becomes a reality. Everything from the set up, to the timing, to helping day-of making sure everything goes according to plan was more than what was even expected. People ask how our wedding went and all we can say is “perfect”. We are so grateful to everyone on The Concourse team, especially to Kylie. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day.

The bathrooms are very clean. The manager is very responsive and very easy to work with. He answered all of our questions quickly and with care! But the best part? The food. The food is so good, high quality, your guests will be talking about it for ages. Quivey’s includes chairs tables linens and place settings so you only have to worry about cake and what to pick from their delicious menu for food. Also, there is a hotel across the lawn for the safe return of your guests. Set up is a breeze because they have staff setting up the tables and table clothes. Everyone is so kind and helpful! Also all our vendors had worked with Quivey’s before, they’re pros at weddings.

The Bowery was the first and only venue that my now husband and I toured. We took one step onto this property and instantly fell in love. The staff were so friendly and knowledgeable and they made everything so easy for planning! From checklists, to tipping guides, to responding (kindly) to my endless emails- we couldn’t have asked for more. I have to give a special shoutout to Hannah, who’s coordinating services we added onto our day. She truly understood and executed my wedding vision better than I could’ve ever imagined. We felt like we were part of the family here and not just another couple. If you’re looking for a place that is more than a venue- this is it.

My spouse and I had the literal wedding of our dreams. The Gardens were able to accommodate things we wanted, like family style dinner, long tables, great sound quality and an incredibly beautiful outdoor space. Getting married here was easy, the whole team communicated so quickly and respectfully. Being a queer couple, it was great to be in a space we could be fully ourselves. I don't think either of us could have anticipated anything better. The food was delicious, the venue was gorgeous, the people were great and the day was perfect.
