Coast

A beautiful Milwaukee venue!

We 100% recommend Coast Venue and Zilli Hospitality Group (ZHG)! From the moment we first toured the venue to the final moments of our reception, the entire experience was seamless, elegant, and genuinely joyful. If you are planning a wedding in Milwaukee, Coast is a fantastic choice. Location & Space The atmosphere, views, and location at Coast strike a great balance of having a wonderful Milwaukee downtown and lakefront feel, while still being incredibly functional. The recent renovations to the interior give it a modern look with more sense of space. The bridal suite is spacious and convenient with plenty of mirrors and seating. There are beautiful photo opportunities available right outside the venue. This was a big reason we chose the venue over others. Gardens across the street, a public park with plenty of grass, the Milwaukee art museum - all amazing. It has a great patio for cocktail hour and outdoor access for guests. It is close in proximity to hotels and there is accessible parking for guests in a garage nearby. The Team We worked with Laura as our Event Designer and cannot say enough kind words about her work. She is knowledgeable, professional, encouraging, timely, creative, and fun. Laura guided us throughout the entire process and answered all our questions along the way. She was great at steering us in the right direction when we were uncertain what to choose for placement, design, etc. She also coordinated extremely well with our vendors for setup and deliveries. Laura and the staff set things up exactly as we discussed and the space looked beautiful! Additionally, we saw first hand that the waitstaff was very kind and friendly to guests. The servers and bartenders were incredibly kind, thoughtful, and sincere. The Food We received so many compliments on how good the food was. ZHG has a huge variety of food choices to select from for any stage of your wedding or event. The options are tasty and fun and our guests also enjoyed the desserts and late nice snacks. The staff helped us with cake cutting and serving, even though we purchased our wedding cake from a separate bakery. For all of this, throughout the process, the pricing was very transparent. This helped a lot with our planning process. Overall, Coast was a wonderful canvas for our wedding design and we are so glad we chose it! We truly had the best day and would happily recommend Coast, Zilli, and most importantly, Laura, to anyone for their wedding venue in the future. We felt as if we had a wide variety of options for our wedding design but were never overwhelmed by choices or treated with anything but kindness and hospitality. Thank you Laura and team for an incredible experience and a beautiful wedding day.
