Our reception at Oak Pointe CC turned out to be so beautiful and perfect. Everything was placed where I wanted it to be and looked exactly how I had hoped. The execution of the day was seamless and smooth, and my fiancé and I were VERY happy with how everything turned out that day. We didn't have to worry about anything, except for placing the name cards at the head table. The bridal room came very much in hand for privacy and keeping our personal belongings safe and out of the way during the reception. The grounds looked beautiful and clean, and the staff was very friendly. Servers, kitchen personnel, set up/tear down helpers, bartenders, etc... thank you so much for making our wedding day so wonderful! Food came out in a timely fashion and was delicious, servers and bar tenders all had a good attitude and were friendly, which was very important to me as well. All of our guests seemed to really enjoy themselves, and everyone said how beautiful it was there! Our only criticism was the communication during the "off season". It wasn't the best when it came to confirming the food, setting up the tasting, getting the updated contracts when changes were made, and the other minor details. However, the communication as we got closer to our wedding was much better, and we felt at ease as the day drew nearer. Julianna ended up going out of her way to add in small details for our day to make it look even prettier in the ballroom and she really put her best foot forward as soon as we got there. All in all, we were very happy with how everything turned out, and we want to thank everyone at Oak Pointe Country Club, especially Julianna for going above and beyond what we had hoped, and truly making us feel special on our day :) Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

We absolutely loved having our wedding at the MSU Horticulture Gardens! We had our ceremony in the North Gardens outside, the cocktail hour in a covered tent right outside of the greenhouse, and the dinner and reception inside of the greenhouse. We had 118 guests and were able to do dinner and dancing inside of the greenhouse comfortably. Everything was set up promptly and was ready to go the day before. Working with the team was very collaborative and they provided lots of options while we were deciding what we wanted our layout to be. Amy was great to work with. They had lots of rental options such as chairs, tables, linens, bar, and backdrop curtain to elevate the space. There was a large walk-in cooler that we were given access to where we were able to keep our desserts and then store flowers/leftovers in over night after the wedding. During our tour we were a bit worried that the greenhouse would be very hot and that the fans would be loud, but they're able to cover the roof and we were able to rent standing fans that kept the venue cool without excessive noise and it totally fine. Everything came together beautifully on the day of and we are so happy with the day overall! We received so many compliments from guests and we would definitely recommend the North Gardens as a wedding venue.

I'm finding it hard to summarize my experience with Zingerman's Cornman Farms into a simple, short review because of the amount of work and tireless effort that was put into my experience here. Tabitha, Kieron, Olivia, Kirsten, Rachel, and the rest of the team at Cornman Farms put absolutely everything they could into helping me plan my July 31, 2020 wedding on the farm. For the past 10 months, I have been working closely with the staff here to execute our outdoor, 85 person wedding and it has been nothing short of one of the best experiences I have ever been a part of. Zingerman's Cornman Farms is the most charming and beautiful property with so much to offer couples who choose to get married at the venue. From the beginning, our expectations were met with top-notch customer service and all-inclusive experience. I wanted to book this venue for my wedding since I came across it on a google search, but after seeing the property, the 1800s farmhouse, barn, lush fields and gardens, we were absolutely sure we weren't going to explore any other options. In the middle of our wedding planning, we were thrown a global pandemic which posed a huge problem for gathering. Tabitha and the Cornman Farms team were so gracious and prompt in replying to emails, messages, zoom calls, etc. during the entire shut down and included such an empathetic, supportive tone. We knew from the beginning of the shutdown that we were going to get married on our wedding day no matter the circumstances, but we were a million times thankful that Cornman Farms chose to stick with us and do everything in their power to host our event on their property with accommodations and safety measures in place. On the actual day of our wedding, we were greeted by several people to help, including a concierge, and farm production and execution staff. Each moment of our day was orchestrated perfectly and it is because of all the work the Cornman Farms staff does (especially behind the scenes). Our wedding looked a bit different than a traditional wedding because of the circumstances, but Cornman Farms put every effort into making it perfect that we wouldn't have changed a thing even if we could have. Our day was a beautiful, sunny, 80 degrees and ended with the most picturesque watercolor sunset. We still can't believe everything happened, and that it was real. Our guests raved about every detail and we think about our wedding every single day. Zingerman's will always have our business, we will always be thankful to Cornman Farms and the people there, and we cannot wait to come back to the property for events and anniversaries in the future. Thank you Cornman Farms for playing such a huge role in our love story!

I honestly thought the vision of an outdoor winter wedding was going to continue to just be a dream. So many people told us we were crazy and “good luck” because why on earth would we get married outside in the cold. It wasn’t until I brought this idea up to the Holly vault, and they immediately said “let’s do it!” The staff at this venue were out there until minutes before the ceremony blowing off snow from the chairs, putting salt down, and cranking the heat lamps. A huge shoutout to my coordinator Sam, and all the staff at this venue who worked their butts off to make this happen for us. Every single coordinator, server, bartender, and staff member at this venue worked so hard to make our day/night so special. We have recieved numerous comments on how impressed our guests were with the service provided and we just couldn’t be more thrilled. You will not regret going with The Holly Vault.

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!

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.

We had the wedding of our dreams here! The venue is stunning & the food was amazing. Lilly was great at helping us along every step of the way & answering my millions of emails in a timely fashion! I loved that they had the option for chivari chairs instead of just the banquet chairs. We were a little worried about the golfers going by during our ceremony but we didn’t see anyone! Our ceremony was at 4:30pm in September & it was nice & quiet for us! The one downside is they don’t have a designated “getting ready” suite, but we were able to book an Airbnb & hotel not too far from the venue & used that instead! It was nice not having to worry about catering or bar services being separate either. The dance floor was plenty big & I loved they it was right next to the bar to make it easy to drink & dance! We had about 125 guests & they all fit nice but I definitely wouldn’t have felt comfortable having many more as the tables went almost to the dance floor. Highly recommend this venue!

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 :)
