We were delighted to host a comprehensive event for the exceptional employees of Nelnet. The day comprised diverse activities, outstanding food, and meaningful conversations.

The afternoon concluded with cocktails and an entertaining trivia game. Thank you, Nelnet, for entrusting The Ballroom with hosting your event. Nelnet

After more than 20 years in the events industry, I have learned that the most meaningful moments happen when people come together to celebrate.

That is why my very talented business partner Matt Rogge and I are incredibly excited to introduce The Ballroom at Grand Manse.

Together, we are bringing new life to this historic downtown venue—a place where weddings, receptions, tailgates, galas, corporate events, fundraisers, and celebrations of all kinds can come together under one roof.

This page will be your behind-the-scenes look at the transformation, the events, and the memories that will be created here.

Thank you for being part of this journey. We look forward to sharing what is ahead and welcoming you through our doors.
