At Dresden Castle, we’ve created a space that can adapt to the moments that matter most to you. Whether you’re planning a wedding and reception, a quinceañera, a corporate meeting, or even a performance with a theater group, our event hall is ready to bring your vision to life.
The historic charm of the building provides a one-of-a-kind backdrop, while the hall itself is designed to be both spacious and versatile. With capacity for up to 350 seated guests, we’re robust enough to handle large celebrations—but our sweet spot is gatherings of 100 to 250 people, where the space feels full, lively, and personal without ever being overwhelming.
From intimate milestones to big productions, we’re excited to host events that bring people together and create lasting memories within these walls.

Dresden Castle
Dresden castle is named for the City of Dresden as the capital city in the German state of Saxony, and well as its regal, commanding and almost “Castle like” neo-gothic architecture.
In fact, the City of Cudahy has lots of Polish, German, and Slavic influences that has shape its unique history.
The Making of Dresden Castle
In 2019, we took on what would become the most ambitious project of our lives: breathing new life into a beautiful but long-vacant neo-gothic church. After sitting unused for nearly two decades, the building still carried a quiet dignity, and we knew it deserved a second chapter. Drawing on our past experience renovating duplexes, we felt ready—but quickly realized this was a completely different scale of challenge.
With Jason’s background in construction management and our shared passion for hands-on, heavy renovation work, we rolled up our sleeves and did the majority of the work ourselves. From painstaking repairs to creative reimagining, we poured countless hours into honoring the building’s historic character while shaping it into a welcoming space for modern gatherings.
What motivates us is more than just construction—it’s the joy of restoration. Bringing this church back to life has been our way of preserving both its architecture and its spirit. Today, we are proud to share it as a wedding venue, where a building once silent for 20 years now hosts new stories, laughter, and love.
Meet Alex & Jason
When we’re not busy with renovation projects, we love spending time doing the things that make us who we are. Jason has always had a love for trains and cooking, while Alex finds joy in flying airplanes and exploring the water by kayak.
Together, we share a passion for travel—especially to warm, sunny places—and for getting outdoors as much as possible. You’ll often find us paddling together, or simply enjoying time with our two dogs, a golden retriever and a border collie, who keep us happily on our toes.fact, the City of Cudahy has lots of Polish, German, and Slavic influences that has shape its unique history.
