On the day of, the staff went above and beyond to ensure everything was exactly as we had envisioned, even setting extra decor featuring our names. We were thrilled to see a recap video they made on their social media the next morning! We will cherish that forever.

I got married here in August and it was the most incredible day. The end of summer is when the garden is in full bloom which makes having an outside ceremony ethereal. When we toured the venue, I knew immediately it was where I would marry my husband. I've never seen a venue so unique and beautiful. I adored the getting ready spaces, the ceremony arch, the chandelier in the reception, and the vintage cohesion of the entire venue. The separate bar/dancing room and reception/dinner space is genius, especially if you plan on having guests that aren't interested in dancing but want a comfortable area to converse. It rained during our reception but it made it all the more special to be safe inside celebrating while it stormed outside. We worked with Liv who went above and beyond for us. I am sad to not have another opportunity to work with her again! She was so helpful and accommodating during our tour and rehearsal, and made sure everything ran smoothly during the ceremony, AND she came back when we accidentally blew a breaker. Overall, I highly recommend choosing Sundance and the Secret Garden to have your wedding, as well as one of their sister venues if you prefer a different setting. I enjoyed working with Amelia and Kirby, who were helpful and quick with their communication. It's a true testament to their artistry experiencing the heart and soul poured into these incredible venues during the most special day of our lives. I will reminisce on every moment forever.

Amelia even took the time during the reception to capture photos for an Instagram reel to help us remember our special moments at MillCreek Wilde.

Stonebridge Golf Club was the perfect venue for our wedding. I worked at Stonebridge for 6 years and met my husband there, and I wanted nothing more than to get married at the beautiful venue. The staff was very easy to communicate with - Kim was always quick to respond and available whenever we had questions (even the silliest of questions). Kim and Jeff took care of everything we needed and made sure our day was exactly how we envisioned. The venue itself is beautiful, with indoor and outdoor spaces that provided a fun, open atmosphere for our guests. The tiki bar was a big hit! Justin, the chef was able to accommodate needs and made the best Swedish meatballs! Considering all that they handled for us and the quality of the venue, Stonebridge was a great value. They provide chairs/tables, linens, table settings, and all food and beverages making it an easy one stop shop. We would highly recommend them to any couple looking for a beautiful, accommodating venue and thoughtful staff for their special day.

I feel like I have been waiting two years to write this review with how much I love Northern Haus and how excited we were to have our wedding there. Ever since the day we first toured back in 2022, to the day of our wedding, last Saturday August 24th, 2024, Sara, Nick, and Megan were absolutely amazing throughout the entire process. From our initial meeting and touring of the venue, to the countless calls and emails during the planning process, to the day of coordination, we were always given outstanding service, professionalism, friendliness, and quick responses. The venue itself is absolutely stunning! You can easily pair your wedding vision with the white barn, vaulted ceilings, and luxurious accommodations. It truly shines when you pull up the front walk, continue through the foyer, to the reception hall, to the gorgeous bar, to the covered porch, all the way up to the ceremony space - so beautiful. Every single detail was thought of and nothing went unnoticed when Sara and Nick built the venue. We had seen the venue being built years ago and could only hope that our wedding could some day be hosted here, and once we pulled up for that first tour, we looked at each other and knew it was the one! Sara was our day of coordinator and I cannot emphasize enough how incredible she made our day. As the bride who planned literally the entire day and every detail, I did not have one single worry with having Sara and her team in charge. If anything went wrong at all, I had no idea and that is exactly how it should be. The day was smooth, seamless, beautiful, and so well executed, I was thoroughly impressed the whole time. When you host your wedding with Northern Haus, the team provides a recommended list of vendors to work with, which was very helpful. Professionalism was very important to us when picking vendors, so to know that Sara had a preferred list of vendors with proven track records really made our vendor selection process easy. If you love Door County, or if you've never been and you want to fall in love with Door County, Northern Haus is the best venue and Sara and Megan are the best team to work with, hands down. I'm so sad our day is over, but I could not imagine it happening anywhere else but at Northern Haus. We can't wait to come back and visit again in the future.

I'm finding it hard to summarize my experience with Zingerman's Cornman Farms into a simple, short review because of the amount of work and tireless effort that was put into my experience here. Tabitha, Kieron, Olivia, Kirsten, Rachel, and the rest of the team at Cornman Farms put absolutely everything they could into helping me plan my July 31, 2020 wedding on the farm. For the past 10 months, I have been working closely with the staff here to execute our outdoor, 85 person wedding and it has been nothing short of one of the best experiences I have ever been a part of. Zingerman's Cornman Farms is the most charming and beautiful property with so much to offer couples who choose to get married at the venue. From the beginning, our expectations were met with top-notch customer service and all-inclusive experience. I wanted to book this venue for my wedding since I came across it on a google search, but after seeing the property, the 1800s farmhouse, barn, lush fields and gardens, we were absolutely sure we weren't going to explore any other options. In the middle of our wedding planning, we were thrown a global pandemic which posed a huge problem for gathering. Tabitha and the Cornman Farms team were so gracious and prompt in replying to emails, messages, zoom calls, etc. during the entire shut down and included such an empathetic, supportive tone. We knew from the beginning of the shutdown that we were going to get married on our wedding day no matter the circumstances, but we were a million times thankful that Cornman Farms chose to stick with us and do everything in their power to host our event on their property with accommodations and safety measures in place. On the actual day of our wedding, we were greeted by several people to help, including a concierge, and farm production and execution staff. Each moment of our day was orchestrated perfectly and it is because of all the work the Cornman Farms staff does (especially behind the scenes). Our wedding looked a bit different than a traditional wedding because of the circumstances, but Cornman Farms put every effort into making it perfect that we wouldn't have changed a thing even if we could have. Our day was a beautiful, sunny, 80 degrees and ended with the most picturesque watercolor sunset. We still can't believe everything happened, and that it was real. Our guests raved about every detail and we think about our wedding every single day. Zingerman's will always have our business, we will always be thankful to Cornman Farms and the people there, and we cannot wait to come back to the property for events and anniversaries in the future. Thank you Cornman Farms for playing such a huge role in our love story!

Our planner recommended The Community House after I mentioned liking another place because it was, well, community centered! The Community House is a nonprofit that serves as a venue but also has programs for the community, such as the Early Childhood Center. Besides that, another appeal to us was how good the food sounded, and I am telling you, we were right. Everyone raved about the food! We had beef short rib, vegetarian pappardelle, and chicken confit. The latter was extra, but it was worth it and honestly one of the top selling points on the menu for us. I am so happy about this, because a lot of wedding food is…meh. The other pro for us was the layout. We really wanted a setup that encouraged people to dance, and this was perfect with the dance floor, stage, and tables surrounding it. This proved to be true, and if it didn't throughout the night, it was because people were tired or not into the songs! The only constructive feedback I have for TCH is on communication. It's OK if you don't respond ASAP, but when we are planning a wedding, and paying …a week is a little long. The communication did improve once we started talking to another employee, however, so maybe it just varies person to person. One request for TCH: if possible it would be great to have an electronic payment portal that does not charge fees. It was a little scary to send large sums of money using a check via USPS.

We held our wedding reception at the Michigan League and overall had a wonderful experience. The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous with a classic look that perfectly suited our wedding vision. The staff were very responsive throughout the planning process and provided thorough follow-up, which was much appreciated. Even when we switched event planners midway through, the League staff ensured the transition went smoothly. It was also incredibly convenient to have both our ceremony and reception in one venue. The only hiccup was that we couldn't hold our rehearsal in the League's ballroom or anywhere else on site. Luckily we were able to use our rehearsal dinner restaurant instead. Aside from that, the Michigan League was the perfect backdrop for our special day!

The Grain Loft was the perfect venue for our wedding. The staff, shout out especially to Cher, were fantastic. Communication was always clear, organized, and timely, which kept everything running smoothly. Cher monitored the weather and found the ideal window for our outdoor ceremony between rain showers, which was very appreciated as an outdoor wedding was what we really wanted, but there was a backup indoor plan if needed. We received so many compliments from guests on the venue and how well the staff adapted to work around the rain. The Grain Loft has a gorgeous charm on its own, but it can be personalized very easily. Despite less than ideal weather, the venue shined and we couldn't have asked for a better backdrop to celebrate with friends and family. We'd highly recommend The Grain Loft!

Fernwood really is a hidden gem. The grounds are beautiful and their rates very affordable! They were very responsive to my many questions, and very helpful on the day of our wedding. They even let us use an extra classroom for the groomsmen to get ready in. They were also really flexible. You can’t really go wrong here, and the garden itself can be your decor! We also left one item behind by accident which we were able to pick up a few days later. Lots of “areas” to choose from for your day, too. Only complaint was the poison Ivy growing along some of the pathways, which were already fairly narrow. We just used alternate paths and it was no big deal!

We had such a great experience with Plymouth Manor for our wedding reception. They were able to accommodate our intimate reception of 60 guest. Aya and Sam were so amazing and helpful, they nailed it! The food and staff was great. They were even able to help us find a DJ who was amazing, before they helped us I was so worried about a DJ, so to have them be able to help, was truly amazing. We even at the end decided to upgrade the lighting, which was a great choice. Everything looked great and went so smoothly and we and our guest had a blast. My best friend had her reception there over 10 years and she recommend them and I would also highly recommend Plymouth Manor. If there is another life event in our life that we would need to host, I would definitely go back to Plymouth Manor.

Having our wedding at Woldumar was SO, SO special!!! We took the risk of having an August 10 wedding in their barn with no A/C...and we were rewarded with beautiful 70 degree weather. One of their exhaust fans was broken, but they purchased window fans and an industrial fan to keep the air moving. Definitely not an issue for us given our incredible weather, but I was a little nervous in the lead-up. Victoria was SO EASY to work with, I cannot sing her praises enough. From booking until wedding day, she was right there with us. She had fantastic advice on vendors and ceremony details that made things go so smoothly (walking across the bridge was the best idea EVER). The golf cart photo tour was AWESOME, too! My husband and I are very outdoorsy, so it was fun to spend so much time outside on our big day. You can tell the Woldumar staff put a lot of love into their grounds. We got so many compliments on how beautiful everything was! It was truly the perfect venue for us. We didn't even need much decor because the barn and ceremony space are so beautiful on their own. We didn't purchase day-before or day-after barn access which made things a little chaotic. I recommend getting the day-after cleaning, as we were in a mad rush to get things cleaned before midnight on wedding day. The security guard was also very rude during clean up. I'd pay extra to not have to deal with him again... All in all, great venue for the outdoorsy couple! We loved being able to choose all of our own vendors, too. We felt like we had so much creative control, which we wouldn't have gotten at a full-service venue. It's also so comforting to know our money went to a nature center. Much better than a golf course, at least in my opinion!

My husband and I were married here on 7.13.2024. It was heavenly!!! When we toured other venues in the southwest Michigan region no place felt quite right. We happened to hear about Inisfree in passing and decided to drive over. Peggy and Bruce (the owners) couldn't have been kinder and more welcoming and they remained that way the entire process and continue to be! They have so much passion for Inisfree and it shows. The ground are beautiful and immaculate and they truly love to engage with people. We also rented all ten rooms out at the bed and breakfast for our wedding weekend and got special and intimate time with our friends- from pool time, garden/patio hangs, and delicious home made breakfasts (quiche, zucchini bread, blueberry muffins just to name some of my favorites). Our friends/wedding party who stayed onsite continue to rave about their stay and the guests of our wedding party couldn't get over how beautiful the property is. Everyone loved silent disco!!! Do you self a favor and book a tour. The place speaks for itself. We can't wait to return for our anniversary :)

We got married in August 2018 at The Milestone Barn and it was the wedding of our dreams! The barn and grounds are stunning. I loved everything about my wedding. Carolyn was amazing to work with and always there to answer my questions. People loved the venue so much that we talked about doing it again (minus the wedding part). You won’t regret getting married there. If you are looking for food, hotel, or someone to marry you they have recommendations!! I wouldn’t have changed a thing.

We were honestly blown away by our wedding reception in the hearthside room in 2023. We were hoping for a low-key, pretty traditional "hall" style reception, where the emphasis would be on friends and family, family, food, and having a good time. The hearthside room was a great backdrop for that--cozy but spacious. The weather was great, and between the entryway/catering level, the main room, and the deck, our guests had a lot of options for hanging out and conversation. We had a few communication challenges due to staff turnover (their main coordinator and their chef both left in the middle of our planning), but chef Justin was great about honoring the original plan we had discussed. A couple of our guests had some pretty big food intolerances, and he made sure they still had plenty to eat. But most of all, I just cannot say enough good things about the food and the staff. Everyone was super helpful, and our guests could not stop talking about the food. There was PLENTY to go around, and Chef Justin and his staff made sure that everyone got their fill. It's a little early for a vow renewal, but we'll be recommending Cannonsburg to our friends and we'll be looking for a reason to host another big party here.

The venue is absolutely amazing! It's so gorgeous and private! Diane and her husband are both just amazing people! They were so flexible with us and made set up so easy! The garden alone is a show stopper but that chandelier in the barn is the icing on the top of the cake for me! We didn't even hardly add any decorations to the barn because of its natural beauty. I would 1000% recommend this venue to absolutely anyone. For the price, it's the best experience I could have imagined for my wedding day!

We don't have enough great things to say about The English Inn. The grounds are breathtaking and made for the perfect location for our wedding. The gardens are beautiful and well-kept and the riverfront was a peaceful backdrop for our ceremony. The on-site rooms allowed us to keep our immediate family and closest friends close which made for the perfect wedding weekend. We had great locations for getting ready which made for excellent photo ops. The staff was so friendly and considerate and went out of their way to make our weekend special. I can't thank everyone enough, especially Adriana who addressed all of my emails in a friendly, timely manner. She was constantly checking in throughout the wedding and ready to address any issues that arose. We're looking forward to spending many of our anniversaries here for years to come.
