Great venue for our day
The venue and staff did a wonderful job supporting our 250 person wedding. They did a great job of accommodating our large wedding on the dock in the middle of a snow storm in November so I’m sure they can handle anything!
A Perfect Day at Prairie Street
Our wedding at Prairie Street Brewing Co. was an absolute dream! The ceremony by the river was breathtaking, and the reception in the Barrel Room was just perfect. Our guests are still talking about how delicious the food was! The staff was incredible—so helpful and organized, and our day-of coordinator made everything so stress-free and easy for us. We couldn’t have imagined a more beautiful, relaxed, and fun day!
