The Foxglove Farm 

5.0

Suttons Bay, MI
  • Up to 160 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $7,000

The Foxglove Farm aims to marry the beauty of the Leelanau Peninsula's natural elements with simplistic and modern design. Within the 130 year old barn are clean lines, consistent outlines of contrast and a color palette reflective of the wide open view from the cherry orchard. We believe that no two events should look the same at The Foxglove Farm. By offering a forest alcove, orchard inset, restored barn, wildflower field & lakeview outlook, the options are endless. Whether you're looking for a dark, moody farm-to-table gathering in the woods or an intimate ceremony enveloped by cherry blossoms, the 140 acres are yours to set the scene.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Dressing room available
  • Natural elegance with open spaces
  • Both indoor and outdoor options

Venue considerations

  • No on-premises lodging options
  • Couple must handle cleanup and setup
  • No in-house catering options
“The Foxglove Farm is by far one of the most special venues in Northern Michigan, if not all of Michigan. The Barnes family took such care and gave deep consideration to the property's history and how it could best serve their clients & community when restoring the barn and planning out the space. You feel the family's warmth and thoughtfulness around every corner--whether you're a client or a vendor. From a design perspective, one of the things that I love about Foxglove is that the space really speaks for itself; not much is needed, yet so much can be done to enhance the natural beauty and make the event "yours." If I could only ever work at Foxglove, I gladly would... heck, if I could live at Foxglove I'd move in tomorrow!”

“If you don't get married here, you're missing out! The ENTIRE experience was way better than I ever could have imagined! Think wedding planning is stressful? Not here. From the planning stages all the way to the wedding day/night was such a stress-free time. I was truly able to enjoy every moment of my wedding because of how easy Maggie and Vince made it. Their communication and easy-going personalities made the whole process so much fun! The venue is BEAUTIFUL. It's perfectly laid out for a one stop shop. I had my ceremony, pictures, dinner and reception all on site. There are SO MANY good spots to take pictures, the bar area is ridiculously perfect and charming, and the barn is so rustic and beautiful. I have too many good things to say about my experience. I loved it so much that I can't wait to start planning my vow renewal ceremony so I can do it all over again and without a doubt have it at Magnolia's at Hobart!”
