Woldumar Nature Center 

4.5

Lansing, MI
  • Up to 150 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $2,750

Choosing Woldumar for your Lansing wedding venue will not only provide a beautiful and unforgettable experience for you and your guests, but also will support our nonprofit environmental education efforts - giving you one more reason to smile on your wedding day! Our beautifully maintained grounds are available for your guests to explore, several outdoor locations are superb settings for a memorable ceremony, and the RE Olds Anderson Rotary Barn is a one-of-a-kind rustic venue for your celebratory reception. Imagine your unforgettable Wedding Ceremony held in a beautiful outdoor venue among the enchanting, natural settings found at Woldumar!

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!

We especially appreciated that they had extra decor and supplies on hand that enhanced our decorations and helped our special day go smoothly. The venue was exceptionally priced given the lovely property, amenities, and excellent service.

The English Inn 

5.0

Eaton Rapids, MI
  • Up to 200 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor

15-acre historic Tudor Revival estate with formal English gardens along the Grand River. Our elegant ballroom features crystal chandeliers and large picturesque windows. This historic Inn and ballroom combines classic elegance and a vintage feel, creating a timeless wedding experience that is unforgettable for couples and their guests. We have the perfect venue for summer and fall weddings with our vibrant gardens, or a magical winter occasion with snow covered grounds. While we host grand weddings of up to 200 guests, we also specialize in weddings as intimate as under 10 guests.

First off, the all-inclusive aspect of English Inn was perfect. We had our rehearsal, rehearsal dinner, wedding, photos, cocktail hour, and reception there - plus our bridal party and immediate family stayed on site! It really took a lot of stress out of the weekend to not have to worry about how to get from A to B. And since the Inn's banquet hall caters the meal and has a bar, that was 2 fewer vendors we had to worry about! Not to mention chairs, tables, linens, etc all provided as well. For two people who aren't familiar with event planning, the English Inn made planning our wedding a breeze! Adriana is amazing as event coordinator, she was always able to answer every question quickly and professionally. The staff was all really friendly and the food was AMAZING! Absolutely no regrets or "what-if"s on our venue choice.

The Milestone Barn

  • Starts at $3,500

We are located in Bannister, Michigan and were transformed to a barn wedding location in 2011. The owners realized that a rustic and country chic wedding was what they wanted soon after their engagement. Now they hope to bring their vision to others, while maintaining the affordability that allows everyone to enjoy a rustic barn wedding. The Milestone Barn serves the purpose of housing the weddings and other “milestone” events throughout ones life. Whether it’s a wedding, reception, graduation party, prom, or any other gathering, The Milestone Barn will provide you exactly the rustic country, yet elegant feeling you wish to achieve. Perfectly located 10 miles west of Chesaning, The Milestone Barn sits between Lansing, Saginaw and Flint, allowing us to serve the vast majority of lower Michigan.

The Milestone Barn is PERFECT. Lets dive in. I was a bride on September 16th, and it was all my dreams come true. Carolyn, the owner of the venue was extremely clear and informative about her rules and expectations of the barn so there was ZERO misunderstandings. She communicated everything perfectly, and really helped us out with the planning process and making everything work for us. She was so kind, personable and helpful. The venue ITSELF, was perfect. I had a wedding of 130 people and it fit everyone accordingly and comfortably. My pictures turned out amazing because of the beautiful barn, the decorations and scenery. Everything about this venue was beautiful and it really made me fall in love all over again on my wedding day. It had plenty of room to get ready too, us girls were a MESS hehe. But I have ZERO complaints. It was perfect.

The Clark’s Lakeside 
Homer, MI
  • Up to 200 guests
  • Select services
  • Outdoor
  • Starts at $1,800

We began our journey in 2015 with a dusty gravel pit and vision for a new home. The gem was the stunning 30 acre crystal clear lake. After purchasing the property we found ourselves hosting church activities and work functions as people truly loved being here. Slowly we began adding amenities to the property. First a huge rope swing, (that we have since taken down). It was fun watching the kids fly into the water. Then the 110’ water slide kept all the kids smiling as they splashed into the lake. Then in 2020 our daughter was engaged to a great guy. As she began looking for that special place to host her wedding we came to realize that it was right here. We wanted it to be a very special place and we went to work.

Where to start! If I could give more stars I would!! My spouse and I have been together for over 20 years and we wanted our fairy-tail wedding. Well we had it! We love the outdoors and feeling like we are up north! The moment we saw Twisted Roots, it screamed US!! The owners of the venue made it a spectacular day from start to finish. When I say start, I mean from the initial call. We were able to come out to do multiple site visits with our wedding party, family members, and our vendors. Erica and Jeffrey made us feel at home every time we stopped by! There offered suggestions and also were very open to ideas we threw their way. We were able to come in the day before the wedding to do an early set up and the day after our event to do our pick ups. This flexibility allowed us the wiggle room to just focus on the day itself. The venue setting is breathtaking!! We had our wedding under the pergola with a tent brought in for the reception. The venue offered a wonderful bridal suite, a grand room for also getting ready in, restrooms, outdoor electricity for our DJ, and lighting. Top that off with a bonfire!! If you are looking for a stunning unique venue, and you want to work with people who care about your special day, I recommend checking this location out!! Thank you, Erica and Jeffrey for making our day truly a once in a lifetime event!! Love, The Romej Family

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!

  • Select services

  • Starts at $3,750

At The Kensington Hotel on State Street, we pride ourselves on excellent service with the utmost sophistication. Our hotel is the perfect backdrop for any occasion and is the most unique venue Ann Arbor has to offer. We understand your wedding day is unique and that day should be treated as such. We are honored to be able to assist you with such a memorable day and make it our mission to do so. While reviewing our wedding packages, please keep in mind, all packages can be customized to your wants!

We reserved The Kensington Hotel for our daughter and son-in-law's wedding reception this past November. The ballroom with it's own lobby area was perfect for our guests. We especially loved the beautiful woodwork and decor in the hallway leading to the ballroom and in the attached lobby. Even better than the decor, were the people who made it such a special day. Leah, the catering/sales manager was exceptional at bringing everything together. She went above and beyond to make the day exactly what the bride had envisioned. She was kind and enthusiastic about our ideas, and added some great suggestions of her own. Likewise, the rest of the staff could not have been nicer. From the staff at the front desk, the staff who helped set up, to the chef and servers, everyone treated us well. The food (we chose buffet option with carving station) and hors d'oeuvres were wonderful. We also chose a late night pizza option for 10:30 pm which all of the guests appreciated. We can highly recommend The Kensington for your wedding and /or reception.

I could not have envisioned a more perfect place for our wedding reception than Stonebridge. This is a stunning venue! We had our reception at Stonebridge on Friday, 5/31/24. Kim helped us coordinate everything from the beginning and made everything so easy. Stonebridge is great because it includes catering, lots of decor, and ceremony too, though we had our ceremony elsewhere. Having catering through the venue made it that much easier because we didn't have to look for another vendor for this. The outdoor cocktail hour space was beautiful and perfect. Having the outdoor tiki bar in addition to the indoor bar helped move the line along. We had buffet style dinner, and we got so many compliments on our food. The garlic mashed potatoes and bronzed salmon with capers were the clear winners, but everything was so good. The event managers of the day, Sarah and Hannah, were amazing. They checked in on my husband and I frequently to make sure we always had what we needed, and brought us so much peace of mind! If anything went wrong, I don't know about it, because they along with Kim ensured that everything was taken care of. All decorations supplied by Stonebridge were set up and taken down for us at no extra cost, but we also opted to pay a little extra to have Stonebridge's staff clean up the decorations that we brought, which eased a lot of the burden on our families. This was 100% worth every penny. Everything got cleaned up that night and they took great care of our things so nothing was damaged. They also assisted in setting up our donut table shown in one of the attached photos! Pictures don't do this beautiful place justice but hopefully you can get an idea :)
