My fiancé and I were planning to have our celebration at country barn and estates . However, we ended up delaying our date to a future date . We were planning to do a Cannabis themed celebration, which by the way Country barn & estates are fully open to & supportive of . In the year 2022 you would think more would be , but surprisingly not many are . So if this is a desire of yours as well , this might be the place for YOU . We had planned to do the “white barn “ which is a beautiful space . Not only is it a very large space, you also have access to the cute little horse trailer bar & fireplace as well . Not to mention LOTS of outdoors space . The ceilings are a nice touch & the bathrooms were super cute ! The gazebo with the white bridge across the pond is the perfect place for ceremony or a place for guest to enjoy a moment under . We figured it would be the perfect spot for our cannabis bar . As a added bonus the guest house is also available. Which makes finding a place to stay after the celebration effortless . The Coordinator Bonnie is a sweetheart & will go above and beyond to ensure your special day is nothing but flawless ! Upon learning a little about Bonnie , I learned it was her dream to do a job like this . So you know her heart and passion will be working for YOU . If you haven’t booked , BOOK now ! Shana & Fred

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.

We got married in late fall and everything was perfect. Karie and her crew were so great to work with. We used Karie for the day of coordinating and she was worth very penny. She made everything so easy and stress free. She also has a great eye for decor. We had to change the ceremony from outside to inside last minute due to rain and they did it without causing us any worry. She is a very calming presence who is dedicated ensuring the couples have a wonderful day. I would highly recommend Applewood Farms to anyone looking for a beautiful and comfortable venue!

Christine was a fantastic officiant who was flexible, experienced, informative and helpful, kind, patient, quirky, and thoughtful. She guided us through the process of marriage, both in creating a beautiful ceremony and in assistance with technicalities like name changing. The chapel is better than the online pictures can even capture, it’s got SO much character and charm. The stained glass windows, antique furniture, and interesting trinkets were charming as can be. Christine’s ceremony builder helped us create the perfect outline for a nice presentation, and she is open to people of all backgrounds and beliefs or lack there of. The price for renting her chapel and officiant service is truly unbeatable and WELL worth the money. Could not be happier with how our ceremony went, highly recommend!!! On our wedding day Michigan was plagued with a horrific ice storm, but I hardly noticed because everything else was such a dream come true!

We had our wedding with Mandi and Andy at Lake Lucy and it was everything we could have hoped for and more. The setting is amazing. There is plenty of room for all your guests. We had about 150 and there was more than enough room for everyone to spread out if they wanted too. Plent of room for parking. Mandi and Andy are amazing to work with. The communication was great. They helped with everything they could and even did tractor rides to get to different sites for pictures around the lake and let us have a bonfire in the evening. I am forever grateful that they allowed us to use their property. I still, a year later, get compliments on the wedding and half the time, it is a compliment to the venue. Thank you for helping make our dream wedding a reality!!
