“Where Mom & Dad Got Married”: The Pints

“My husband Jeremy and I  [celebrated] our 10th wedding anniversary on April 9th, 2015.  Our wedding reception took place at Hotel Julien and we could not have asked for a better venue!  There was no question as to where our wedding would be and we had not even looked at other places.  In fact, we actually changed our wedding date to correspond with the availability at Hotel Julien.  

Our wedding reception was one of the last receptions that took place in the ballroom prior to the major renovations that the hotel underwent that same year.  10 years and 4 children later, we still reside in Dubuque.  We often drive by the hotel and the kids always point out that it is the place that mom and dad “got married”.  I hope one day that they can make Hotel Julien part of their wedding day like we did and pass down the same beautiful memories that we have.”

In celebration of our 100th anniversary, we are looking back at the significant events that have taken place at Hotel Julien Dubuque throughout history. If you were married at the hotel (pre or post-renovation), we would love to hear your story!  Learn more about our “Celebrating Ours, Celebrating Yours” campaign and how you can enter the contest here.
