Are there any minimums?
No. The Overlook Venue does not have bar minimums, catering minimums or guest count minimums. We want our couples to have the most flexibility to stretch their budget for the best possible experience for their guests.
Can I choose my own vendors or do I have to choose from The Overlook's list?
We do not have contracts with outside vendors. You can choose to work with whomever you like. We can give advice and recommendations of local vendors if you are out of the area or need a place to start!
How close are overnight accommodations?
The closest hotel, Lomira Inn and Suites, is under 4 min away .
The Audubon Hotel in Mayville is a 10 min drive Southeast of our venue.
How many cars fit in your parking lot?
We have two parking lots. The one near the main entrance has 60 parking spaces and the 2nd lot near the farmhouse parks 20. Anyone that arrives before the ceremony (typically wedding party, family, and vendors) park in the closer lot and other guests park in the larger lot. Parking lot has commercial lighting for safety.
What happens if it rains during the ceremony time?
Both ends of our venue look out over landscaped Wisconsin scenery that are framed by our lush voile curtains. As with any wedding, it all comes down to teamwork and excellent communication. If the forecast on Thursday is predicting a chance of rain we make sure that the chosen floor-plan will work with an indoor ceremony, with the guests seated at their tables. We always support the decisions made by our couples and use all of our resources to make their plan happen!
Do you include china, silverware, or glassware?
We do not include, nor do we require any of the above for your dinner service.
Our bar serves out of plastic cups that The Overlook provides.
Are linens included?
We do not offer linens. Our favorite vendor for renting linens is I Do Rentals
We have 30 8' banquet tables and 2-6' banquet tables
Can we get a discount if we use less time or space?
No. We do not offer discounted rates in these situations as we only have one event at our venue per day.
Can our dog/s be a part of our ceremony?
We are a dog friendly venue. We ask that dogs be leashed at all times, that any mess they leave behind be cleaned up, and that someone other than the couple are responsible for their care and transport off the property after the ceremony.
What time will we have access to decorate?
Decorating must be done within the 6 hour window chosen at your 60 day meeting.
What if I have a question that isn't listed here?
