Among the 9 other venue listings in the metro it ranks 8th lowest, against a median of $476.55 for that type.
What the capacity costs per guest
The source publishes a capacity of 90 guests. At $1,200, filling the space works out to $13 per guest for the site fee alone, before the license, an officiant, food, or rentals. The median published capacity across the 21 Milwaukee listings that publish one is 100 guests, so this space is smaller than the metro median.
