We had a wedding reception for our son at the Hansen Student Center. The venue was gorgeous and all the staff: Conference staff, catering staff, and onsite staff were all wonderful to work with. The reception went smoothly with the help of Melanie who was present answer all our questions and help us with the audio visual. We highly recommend IWU Conference Services!
