  • OPEN! You can decide between any licensed & insured vendor of your choosing! *We will give you a list of our favorites as well*

    ALL VENDORS will need to provide the industry standard proof of insurance, listing Oehme Oasis Wedding & Events Venue + The Oehmes as additional Insured

    Per New 2026 WI Law, we will handle your bar! 🤗

  • Yes, Absolutely! PLUS both our ceremony locations are separate from the reception area. Therefore you’ll never wait for a room to be flipped!

  • See our investment rates HERE

  • The only minimum required is that of the standard “Day-of Event Insurance” policy. That typically runs couples approximately $175. Otherwise, Oehme Oasis has no minimums & no hidden fees! — You add what you want, and skip what you don’t!

  • Oehme is the owners, Austin & Ronelle’s last name. The best, or at least the easiest way to describe it is to rhyme it with homie. In fact, it’s been said like that so many times that “Oehme Homie” has accidentally become one of Austin’s nicknames.

  • Email us at OehmeOasis@gmail.com saying you are ready to book X date if it’s still available. (It’s never a bad idea to include a backup option as well if you have one) Prior to booking we hope you are able to come out & visit us in person.

    Note: Dates are reserved on a first requested basis. You may also click HERE for our contact page.

  • With dedicated indoor and outdoor ceremony locations, both already separate from your reception area, we will have you covered, literally!

    PLUS our indoor ceremony space is created from beautifully crafted pews which are already in their set positions, all anyone would have to do is find a new seat.

  • Yes! We have an entire Pet Attendant Program *previous couples have LOVED it!— It’s like doggy daycare, but SO MUCH more!*

  • Of course! Walk around, find all the angles and hidden spots! *a Team Lead will also touch base with your photographer upon arrival for some hidden gem locations they otherwise wouldn’t find!* —

    We only ask for you not to jump the fence to see the cows. If you want to get closer, we will let you in, just watch your step!

  • While cancellations or postponements do happen, they tend to be rare and unpredictable. Once a date is available, it can be found HERE

  • Since Oehme Oasis only hosts one wedding per day, our fee remains the same whether you have just your ceremony, just your reception, or both on site.

  • To accommodate the NEW Law that went into effect January of 2026, Oehme Oasis Wedding & Events will now handle all things bar!

  • Open! You may decide between any license & insured caterer of your choosing. *We will give you a list of our favorites too*

    Contact us if you are interested in getting your meal catered by a restaurant that does not come onsite to serve your guests. IE: Applebees, Chipotle, a Local Pub, etc.

  • You will be working with whatever caterer you chose. However, Oehme Oasis can assist with many items they may not be able to, or are not very cost effective with.

    Example: If you feel your caterer is charging too much for “after meal clean-up” or to “gather dirty plates” off the tables, you may want to reach out and chat about in-house options! OR if your caterer doesn’t provide plate-ware and utensils, we will direct you to some amazing and affordable options!

  • None for us! Since Oehme Oasis lets you chose your own caterer, this will differ for each couple.

    Perk: Our preferred caterers do not have minimums either.

  • Yes. Of course! Many couples surprise their guests with a late night snack! — We have serval options to make this happen!

  • Absolutely! We encourage you to feed your wedding party! :)

    Outside food is permitted prior to the ceremony, inside the our Getting Ready Rooms.

Planning FAQs

  • This depends on the DJ you decided on. — Some DJ’s get longer access since we have an equipment removal agreement with them. Some may need to end sooner if they take longer to teardown.

    The investment cost includes all guests, vendors, wedding party, etc just needing to be offsite by Midnight on Fridays & Saturdays and 10pm Sunday- Thursday.

    **Reach out to Oehme Oasis directly about keeping the party going onsite or via the Party Bus**

  • Due to events happening during the weekdays as well, this can be a tricky question. Access will not be available to clients OR their vendors prior to the time stated in your rental agreement.

    Please make sure you communicate the access time with vendors and your wedding party. Thanks!

  • Unfortunately no. Our local municipalities fire code prohibits open flames within our structure and 50 feet surrounding it.

    Battery operated flicker candles are an amazing and realistic alternative. PLUS they will last forever as long as you keep the batteries fresh!

    Additionally there are now “water activated” FLOATING candles on the market too!

  • 3 weeks prior to your event date.

  • YES! They just need to be removed by 9am the following day.

    Perk: You may choose to add on our in-house shuttle services to get guests back to their hotels as well!

    Oehme Oasis Transportation, LLC Party Bus+ is rented out publicly and on a first come-first serve basis, so plan in advance whenever possible. Click HEREfor more information

  • This will differ between (1) day access vs Full Weekend

    Your event specific layout will be done for your prior to your arrival, so no worries about that.

    Oehme Oasis staff will handle all janitorial items during your event.

    **We also have full setup and tear down options for all rental types. Just reach out**

  • Click HERE for a list of local hotel accommodations in our area.

    NOTE: These tend to fill up quickly, book your hotel block as soon as possible

  • This is of course a personal preference and has much to do with your wedding photo structure (ie: first looks vs not)

    The past standard has been between 4:30pm-5:30pm, through September and 3pm-4pm in October.

    Note: Most hotels do not allow check-in prior to 3pm. So if you have guests that are staying at hotels, they will need time to get checked in and back to Oehme Oasis.

    Perk: One of the owners has been in the wedding photography & planning business for over 15 years and helps each couple custom design a timeline to best fit their dreams & visions. Simply reach out
