Why Couples Choose 1860 Schulhaus
Purpose-Built for Micro Weddings — 1860 Schulhaus is designed exclusively for intimate celebrations. Every detail, from the flow of the space to the included décor, was built around a guest count of 50 or fewer.
Historic Character — A genuine 1860s German schoolhouse with wood floors, a fireplace, and natural surroundings. This is the real thing, not a renovated event hall or generic banquet room.
Ceremony and Reception in One Place — No shuttles. No guest confusion. No coordination chaos. Your full wedding day unfolds in one seamless, connected experience from first look to last dance.
Stress-Free Setup — Tables, chairs, linens, curated décor, setup, and teardown are all included and handled before you arrive. Your only job is to show up and celebrate.
Transparent, All-In Pricing — What you see is what you pay. No hidden fees, no confusing add-ons, no surprises. Couples appreciate knowing exactly what their micro wedding will cost before they sign anything.
Complete Vendor Freedom — Bring any licensed and insured vendor you love. Your photographer, your caterer, your officiant. No forced packages, no in-house upsells.
