    We held an intimate, outdoor wedding early in April at the Orchard Pond, and it could not have been more perfect. The staff was so amazing in taking care of so many details and helping us plan, and even managed to keep chairs dry for guests outdoors on a rainy Michigan day. They even worked with us a bit on the time to wait for the rain to clear and were so flexible! I also cannot say enough about how beautiful the setting is. I have attended larger weddings in the orchard on the hill, but beside the pond on the dock, with the lovely pine grove, the soft sounds of wind and the wildlife, and the rippling waves across the pond was truly the perfect spot for our intimate affair. The setting is beautiful and allowed our photographer to get many great photos from lots of different angles. The amazing staff also helped us plan our dream wedding in under a month and helped us stay on budget while still having a beautiful, unforgettable day. I truly cannot say enough about the Orchard. It truly is the perfect outdoor wedding venue!

  • The Orchard Wedding unique and unforgettable!

    Working with the orchard wedding venue on many occasions has been super fun and with ease. As a vendor I'm able to communicate with the owners and receive quick responses back with regard to loading and unloading equipment. Easy access to multiple overhead doors makes the process of setting up for weddings a lot easier than other locations. The staff themselves are super friendly and know exactly what they're doing based on experience I believe honestly. If there is any need for help with anything such as tables or chairs the venue without question is able to help. Keep in mind everything is a two-way street and venues like this expect professionalism and I can appreciate that. From time to time the breakdown of equipment can be lengthy in the process. The Orchard wedding venue has much patience and allowing things to be taken down in a sufficient amount of time. I truly recommend this venue for your special day it will be unforgettable from the picturesque view to multiple locations for wedding ceremonies.
