We are located in Bannister, Michigan and were transformed to a barn wedding location in 2011.

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.

Sunset Place was a stunning venue for our wedding. The huge property has a magical, fairy-like feel with beautiful outdoor spaces surrounded by nature. The staff was very friendly, straightforward in their communication, and responsive to all our needs. They stocked us up with plenty of firewood and then mostly left us be to enjoy the space. 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. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect place to celebrate our marriage and make memories with our loved ones.
