What Couples Are Saying
“The Tinsmith was the wedding venue of our dreams! From the moment we walked in, we knew it was the one. every inch of the space is stunning, from the old wooden floors to the modern bar area and the gorgeous glasshouse that makes for the most amazing photos. It’s elegant, timeless, and truly one of a kind. It’s no wonder they won best venue in Wisconsin!
The team at The Tinsmith made the planning process so smooth. They were organized, responsive, and incredibly accommodating leading up to the wedding. On the wedding day itself, everything was seamless, our vendors were coordinated perfectly, setup was exactly how we envisioned, and the flow of the day couldn’t have gone better.
Guests were blown away by the space and kept commenting on how beautiful and unique the venue was. It felt intimate yet spacious, and the lighting and ambiance made it feel straight out of a movie.
If you’re getting married in Madison, The Tinsmith is an absolute dream. We couldn’t have imagined a more beautiful or well-run place to celebrate the best day of our lives!”

“We booked the Tinsmith as our wedding venue and it was the best decision we could have made. Not only is it beautiful, it’s so unique, constructed perfectly for the flow of a wedding day, is a great size, has an awesome bar and an incredible staff. Everyone we worked with and met with was kind, attentive, accommodating and excited for us. The bar staff on the day was awesome, quick and always made sure we had drinks when we wanted them. We went with long harvest tables and loved the set up and there is so much room for the dance floor in the ceremony space. Our guests kept telling us how cool the venue was and that they’d never seen anything like it. We would highly, highly recommend looking at the Tinsmith as your wedding venue!! We can’t say enough good things about it.”

“My husband and I had our wedding at The Tinsmith in March 2025. We cannot express how much we loved the venue and the staff that we had the opportunity to work with. The venue is in the perfect location of downtown Madison close to two hotels. They were incredibly accommodating, including allowing our dog participate in the ceremony. The bartenders that served at our wedding were incredible and very professional and efficient. I highly recommend hosting your wedding here.”
-Jennifer & Cedy, 3/29/25
“The Tinsmith is gorgeous; I am so happy we were able to use the space for our wedding! We loved that both the ceremony and the reception could easily happen all in one location. We aren’t local to Madison anymore, but we knew we wanted to be married there and to show our guests what we love about the city. The Tinsmith was the perfect place to do that. Many of our guests commented on how amazing the venue was, and we couldn’t agree more!
Beyond that, the staff was so helpful and well organized. Their expertise was invaluable, and their thoughtful questions and suggestions for timelines were so useful in our planning process.”
