Third Ward Wedding Venues

The Third Ward is one of Milwaukee’s favorite neighborhoods – so why not get married there?!? Check out this list of Third Ward wedding venues to find a perfect spot for your big day!

Also note that this list just includes Third Ward venues where you can have a wedding reception, however, the Third Ward is home to numerous spots you can have a rehearsal dinner too – check out our list of Milwaukee rehearsal dinner venues to find some!
