The Factory on Barclay 

5.0

Milwaukee, WI
  • Up to 300 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $4,500

The Factory on Barclay is one of the largest Industrial venues in Southeast Wisconsin. The 2-story Cream City Brick walls throughout the space encompasses the history of Milwaukee and provides a grand backdrop for any wedding style. Accommodating up to 300 seated guests or up to 400 for a cocktail style reception, along with an onsite ceremony, The Factory offers great options for groups of most sizes. Enjoy the 2 oversized, separate, onsite suites to get ready whether you choose to hold your ceremony onsite or offsite. Guests enjoy the large, outdoor patio with warm cafe lighting to enjoy the fresh air.

We couldn't have picked a more beautiful, open and perfect venue than the Factory on Barclay. We got married 5/13 and people are still messaging me about how stunning the venue was. Sarah was amazing every step of the way from letting us tour multiple times with different family members, owning set up of our day and tear down. We didn't have to worry about a thing besides having our day. The rest of the staff day-of was absolutely awesome as well. Alcohol is provided. Bartenders were awesome and dealt with the party atmosphere of our wedding really well. We had a little scheduling issue where, surprisingly, we were ahead of schedule and Sarah got all vendors to move things ahead 30 mins. You get so much for your money as well. The space itself is massive and makes the day flow really easily. We did everything on-site, (getting ready, pics, ceremony and reception) and it was the perfect space. Getting ready suites are huge and a big plus. Recommended vendors usually sway people in the opposite direction because you have a smaller list of caterers to chose from, but it's evident that the staff at the Factory and Sarah have taken the time to curate a list of vendors that make a lot of sense for all different budgets and different experiences. We wouldn't do a thing differently regarding our venue search. Truly was the most beautiful day. Will add pictures once we get our formal pics from our photographer!

We recently had our wedding at Mercantile Hall and had a really great time from beginning to end. The venue was stunning, everyone was so friendly and helpful, and more than one of our friends/family told us how great everything was (venue/staff/etc.). They all KNOCKED IT OUT OF THE PARK! Our venue manager was Jess, and she was so nice, extremely helpful with all of our questions, super detailed, and I had all the confidence that she would help us deliver an amazing day to celebrate our marriage (which is honestly the best thing a bride could ask for - no doubts or worries!).
