I had my baby shower at the Victorian House in March 2022 and I will be SWOONING over it for the rest of my life. It was so beautiful for such a sweet celebration. I always dreamed of having a baby shower where literal chickens and a Rooster show up at the front porch to say a friendly 'hello.

The Halverson House in Waterford, WI, is an absolute gem for a September wedding! From the moment we stepped onto the grounds, the charm and elegance of the venue took our breath away. The picturesque setting, surrounded by stunning foliage, set the perfect backdrop for our special day.

Getting married at Halverson House

Halverson House comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth it. First, see the garden at the time of day and season you'd actually get married — a garden that glows at golden hour in June can look very different at noon in March, so ask what's in bloom for your date and walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move, and does it hold everyone?), shade and bugs for a summer afternoon, the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular garden dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.

Corporate events & private parties at Halverson House

Reviews and the venue's own info mention corporate events, retreats, or private parties at Halverson House — garden venues often have real weekday availability since weddings claim the weekends. A quick call answers the three things that matter: weekday and off-season rates, whether the space works for your headcount and A/V needs, and what catering is allowed. If your event lands on a Friday or Saturday in wedding season, ask early.
