“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!”

“Our wedding at Etre farms was absolutely perfect. The Etre team makes wedding plan a dream. I kept thinking to myself, "why am I not stressed yet..shouldn't I be stressed?" month over month ahead of our wedding day - but it's because they think of quite literally everything. Working with their team requires very little from the bridegroom to make your dreams and vision come true. This was especially important to use as we live in a different state and are on the go for work nearly every week. Of course you still need to offer input and share your general vision but they help walk you through details you may be unfamiliar with - we had a handful of meetings over the course of the year and everything we discussed was made a reality. When the wedding finally came, we couldn't have asked for a better day. From the hospitality throughout the getting ready period with our personal concierge and food/drinks provided, to the beautiful space they created with in-house florals (Nicole is amazing!), the best wedding food I've ever had (by far), the beautiful details and signage (shout out Elliana @ Brush Letter Boards) and Etre's amazing in-house DJ - our wedding guests were and still are raving. This review would go on and on if I tried to highlight all the little details this team thought of. We are genuinely sad the planning process is over because we loved meeting and talking with this team regularly - they are all very kind people - so easy to work with and operate like a well-oiled machine. Highly recommend this group and this venue!”

“We were so happy with our choice! Amelia knows how to create an extremely vibey venue. It was everything we wanted: vintage, rustic, industrial, and chic with an enchanted outdoor garden. Amelia and Liv worked with us to help everything go smoothly. Liv was day of manager and was extremely helpful and professional. She knew how bad I wanted an outdoor wedding, so she was watching the weather and made sure to have everything as organized as possible to take it outside weather permitting. It continued to rain for the ceremony but she helped to make the indoor ceremony more beautiful than I imagined! Both were extremely easy to work with.”

“MillCreek Wilde provided the perfect rustic yet elegant backdrop for our special day. Communication with the venue owner, Amelia, was quick, friendly, and attentive throughout the planning process. She responded to all our questions promptly and helped ensure everything came together smoothly. The venue itself is simply stunning with tall trees, string lights, and beautiful landscaping that made bringing in additional decor almost unnecessary. We felt the venue was very fairly priced given the beautiful setting and helpful staff. 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. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect, naturally beautiful venue with an accommodating team to match for our wedding day! It was a magical setting - exactly right for our personalities and hopes for our “enchanted woodland” wedding!”

Arrangements can be made for use of the Bridal Cabin and golf cart shuttle with driver to transport guests to the venue. Ceremonies and receptions will be customized by our wedding coordinator. Weddings over 400 guests can be custom designed to suit your needs.

“I picked this location because of how beautiful the landscape is. So many different spots on the property to get married on, all beautiful. Different locations cost different price. Overall, relatively cheap compared to other venues. When talking to them, I first started with one wedding coordinator. She left and was informed about the new coordinator. She introduced herself and thought she was awesome. She was very tentative to all the details and was very helpful. I wasn’t informed that she had left and a new coordinator had taken her spot. I didn’t know there was a new coordinator until the day before the wedding. She didn’t take charge of anything. She took a back seat to everything. Told her I had a specific song I wanted to play for walking down the aisle. There wasn’t any sort practice with the song at the rehearsal. She couldn’t figure out how to connect my phone to the sound system. She couldn’t figure out how to navigate the song that I had already pulled up on my phone.”

  • Select services

The moment you enter through the stone gates you will see all the natural beauty and the lovingly restored Victorian Manor House built in 1847. Start your day as early as 8am in the charming carriage house. You have the luxury of two reception spaces; the outdoor Estate Tent and indoor (air conditioned) Riverside Room. End your wedding dancing under a spectacular glow of hundreds of string lights! For more inspiration and a complete list of amenities visit our website, stonegate manor events.

“We are so glad that we discovered Stonegate Manor for our small family ceremony! To start, it is so close to Lake Michigan. We were able to get a photo op at the beach in our casual clothes before the ceremony. Then when we arrived at Stonegate, there was plenty of space in the beautiful manor house for us to change into our ceremony outfits. And speaking of photo ops, the grounds are beautiful and have tons of options for beautiful backdrops. We chose the Fairy Garden as our location, and since we were planning our wedding on a very short timeline, we didn’t have any extra decorations. We didn’t need them! It was the perfect secluded spot for us to say our vows with our family members, both human and canine (did we mention Stonegate is dog friendly?!). As I mentioned, we were planning our wedding with only about a month’s notice, and at first we thought that we’d just go to the courthouse. We can’t say how glad we are that we chose Stonegate instead. While we wanted the day to be a casual, stress free event, we also wanted it to be special and memorable. Having an elopement package that includes flowers, cake and other extras eliminated planning stress and decision fatigue, and Prudy is so easy to work with and was able to accommodate the requests we did have to make the day uniquely ours. If you are planning on having your wedding at Stonegate Manor, expect personalized customer service, consistent communication, and a warm welcome when you arrive for your big day.”
