We had our wedding at Shadowland on June 1, and I'm not sure if there's enough room here to say how much we loved working with Charlie and his staff. From the minute we reached out to book the venue a year beforehand, Charlie was accessible, prompt, thorough and helpful. Through every step of the process, we could count on Charlie to work with us to make our day special. The venue is perfect, flexible and offers guests the most beautiful views of Lake Michigan before, during and after your reception. We can't say enough great things about this place!
