From the moment we stepped foot in Bay Pointe Woods, we knew it was the perfect venue for our wedding! The staff was incredibly kind, straightforward, and communicative throughout the entire planning process. They were attentive and there for us every step of the way, ensuring our special day was absolutely beautiful and wonderful. The venue itself is truly stunning - the cozy, intimate and winter themed atmosphere created the most amazing backdrop. All of the staff were incredibly sweet and went above and beyond to make sure our wedding day was perfect! We cannot recommend Bay Pointe enough - it's hands down the best venue we could have chosen!!
