Daughter’s pre-wedding informal dinner.

We had our daughter’s pre-wedding dinner here in February and it could not have gone better. The staff was wonderful and gracious, the food very good and plentiful, the beer delicious and the atmosphere fun and comfortable. The perfect place for an enjoyable and relaxed event.

Amazing wedding venue!

We had an amazing experience planning our wedding with Buck Wild Brewing. I have celiac disease and it was important to me (as the bride) to have our celebration in a location where I could feel safe and relaxed - but would also offer a great experience to our guests, most of whom did not have the same dietary restrictions. We found Buck Wild Brewing about 4 months before our wedding (due to many difficulties with planning during a pandemic) and even with the short notice and the fact that we were the first wedding they hosted, our event turned out so wonderfully. We had around 50 guests and had plenty of room for all aspects of the wedding in the main space of the brewery. The space was beautiful, airy and stylish, but still allowed for us to decorate and bring our own special touches. The owners and the staff were friendly and helpful, and they walked us through the logistics of our event, with a tasting prior to help us determine our menu (which included an open bar throughout the evening, appetizers and a plated dinner served to each guest). Everything went smoothly during the reception and we heard from many guests afterwards that they loved the food, the beer, and the space! No one had even realized the food and drinks were 100% gluten free until I told them. Buck Wild was also able to accommodate us showing a wedding slideshow and having a DJ, and we had a great time dancing with all of our guests after dinner. I would completely recommend Buck Wild as a wonderful location to host a wedding or party in the future!
