Boatwerks Waterfront Restaurant 

5.0

Holland, MI
  • Up to 280 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor

Boatwerks is conveniently located just minutes from downtown Holland on picturesque Lake Macatawa. Choose one of our elegant rooms or reserve them all for a truly grand waterfront event! The retractable wall of windows to our courtyard provides an open-air feeling that Boatwerks has become known for. All rooms include built-in projectors and screens and audio equipment. Experience the food, service, and ambiance that only Boatwerks can provide!

Listen, I'd love to grumble about the cost of the venue itself. But in all honesty, Boatwerks (and Hannah, the event manager) was 100% up front about costs. From the moment we first toured the space, the event manager Hannah was prompt in her communication and transparent about all costs. Hannah even shared a mock up quote the day we initially toured the venue - and it was spot on for the actual event. The truth? The venue was absolutely, without a doubt, 100% worth every cent we paid. We had the patio open all night, there was plenty of food, minimal waits at the bar - all things our guests are still raving about. The venue itself was beautiful, with a lovely waterfront view that provided a picturesque backdrop for our reception. And the food was delicious - our guests raved about the quality and presentation. While the venue cost was a bit higher than other Red Water event venues, it was absolutely worth it for the exceptional service and stunning location. Hannah and the Boatwerks team went above and beyond to ensure our special day was perfect in every way. We're so grateful we chose Boatwerks and would highly recommend them to any couple seeking a beautiful space to celebrate one of the best days of their lives.

  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor

Welcome to our charming barn venue, where life’s unforgettable celebrations are created! Nestled in the scenic beauty of Western Michigan, our venue offers a perfect blend of rustic charm and a magical ambiance!

First off, the grounds with charming waterfall & cross we requested for our ceremony were exactly what we were looking for in a wedding venue. The rustic chic barn with chandeliers was set up beautifully with their tables & chairs. It was so special to have the farmhouse for us and our wedding party to hang out before the ceremony, with both a bridal suite and makeup room for the girls on the second floor. On the first floor the guys hung out and had their own separate room to get ready. The staff went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly on our special day, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Our guests all raved about how beautiful the venue was, and we couldn't agree more. Thank you Melissa and the staff at Old Stonegate Farms for making our wedding day truly unforgettable.

We had our ceremony and reception here, and could not have been happier. Valerie was SOO helpful throughout our 2 year engagement, responding to all of my texts with nothing but kindness and help. The days leading up to it, she had everything sorted out for the wedding to go off without a hitch. I did not notice any problems with the wedding, and when there were some Valerie quickly sorted it out without me noticing anything went wrong. The getting ready rooms, ceremony sites, barn, and outdoor locations were incredibly gorgeous, and I could not recommend this venue and staff more. Our guests all loved the venue and had a blast!

Since 1830, this church has been a foundation of this community as the first and oldest recorded church within the quaint beach town of St. Joseph, Michigan. Now, we are opening our venue up to the community for booking weddings! Our rental fee for the ceremony space of $1385 includes: rental of the venue (indoor sanctuary/outdoor courtyard), officiant services, wedding coordinator, custodial services, and premarital counseling materials, and rehearsal time ($100 additional if you plan to serve food at the rehearsal). If the sanctuary is rented, the price also includes a computer operator/pianist & audio tech to run the sound system.

I have participated in many weddings at Pathway as a guest and tech support person. It's been a pleasure to see how couples and families are so happy with their Big Day turning out just as they wanted. The church staff is easy to work with and open to incorporating your ideas. The sanctuary is a wonderful traditional setting & the courtyard provides a great backdrop for photos.
