MillCreek Wilde Wedding Barn

4.6

Watervliet, MI
  • Up to 280 guests
  • Limited services
  • Outdoor
  • Starts at $5,000

MillCreek Wilde sits deep in the countryside of Southwest Michigan just 1.5 hours from Chicago and 2 hours from Detroit. It's a perfect central location for your out of town guests. As you approach MillCreek you are surrounded by rolling fields, fragrant orchard blossoms, fruiting trees and beautiful working farms which sets the stage for your day. In fact, Millcreek Wilde is noted for offering one of the most private and secluded wedding day experiences.

From the moment we viewed the venue and then leading up to our actual day, everything was beyond perfect. Every single guest let us know how much they truly loved the venue and how fun it was. Amelia and her staff are what made everything the best. The staff that worked that night was so amazing, and helpful, and made everything go smoothly. Amelia was so wonderful to work with and helped us so so so much. I seriously cannot recommend this venue and the team that keeps the doors open. My husband and I had a perfect day because of the staff and the venue!!

Our experience at the Felt was absolutely incredible! We booked the venue back in February 2021 for an August 2022 wedding. From the event proposal process all the way past the wedding, Derrick and team were absolutely unbelievable. They are timely and thoughtful in their responses, the venue is ALWAYS adding on beneficial features and updates for the benefits of their clients, and the ability to stay on-site was unlike any other venue experience I have personally seen. We chose a Friday wedding to give us access the day prior to be able to get ready in the mansion and it was the best decision we made. Our entire wedding party stayed on-site with us and it will likely be the only time in our lives that we can say that. There are many options for the ceremony location and we loved the water garden but the weather backup in the beautiful third floor ballroom means you don’t need to stress leading up to your wedding which was a big decision in booking the venue. One good thing to note is Wi-Fi and service is spotty in the area so make sure your DJ downloads all your necessary music and that people have access to taxis or you set up transportation for them.

The Morris Estate

5.0

Niles, MI
  • Up to 250 guests
  • All-inclusive

The Chapel at The Morris Estate (formerly Morris Farms) has been providing a breathtaking backdrop for weddings since 1938. E.M. Morris built The Chapel as the Centre Meeting House on his 1,000 acre farm in Niles, Michigan. It began as the setting for his daughter's wedding and has since hosted important events for both the Morris family and community. Although there have been renovations to add modern conveniences, the property's quaint atmosphere and rich heritage will continue to be maintained. The area surrounding The Chapel provides a lovely and convenient location for a reception after the ceremony. Enjoy the peace and beauty of the woodland setting along the riverfront while celebrating with friends and family. Lodging is also available on this historic property at the River House. This luxurious retreat provides 5 spacious suites and many relaxing common spaces to enjoy.

As a makeup artist, I'm always looking for venues that not only make the bride's planning a breeze but also work with other vendors amazingly. Not only is The Morris Estates professional, beautiful, and in one of the best locations ever. Wait until you see the bridal suite! The suite is a makeup artist's dream featuring enough room for your hair/mua team to set up while you and your bridal party still have plenty of space to enjoy the getting ready process. The Morris Estate is hands down in my top 5 wedding venues in our area and I'm grateful for their team and my brides to be who also love this venue so much.

We got married at the mansion, and we truly cannot say enough about how wonderful an experience it was. It was beyond our wildest expectations! We initially chose the venue simply because we found the mansion to be a beautiful and interesting setting, but what ultimately impressed us the most was the extraordinary service we received from the owner, Bill. He really goes above and beyond for his clients! He did so much of the setup for us, far beyond what we ever would have expected. In fact, we were absolutely stunned by how much was included, especially given how low the price point is in comparison to more traditional wedding venues in the central Indiana region. He provided so much for us, both in terms of his own time and labor in doing the lion’s share of the setup himself, and in terms of decorations, table settings, etc which were included, and which we would have had to rent or purchase a la carte at many other venues. Honestly, he could charge twice as much, and it would still be a fair price! Bill is obviously so knowledgeable and passionate about the mansion and its history; his enthusiasm in sharing that with us was palpable and made the whole experience even more exciting. He was very generous with his time throughout the process: always responding promptly to our messages, offering suggestions to help us arrange and decorate the space to suit our needs, connecting us with other vendors (for the few services he did not provide himself), accommodating last-minute requests, and even taking initiative to set up additional meetings earlier in the process just to make sure we were on the same page. What we appreciated the most, though, was how incredibly flexible and accommodating he is! Frankly, we had a pretty strange vision for our wedding: we wanted a dinosaur theme. Bill was never judgmental in the slightest, but instead was completely on board with all of our shenanigans and even offered additional suggestions we hadn’t thought of! His open-mindedness and creativity truly made him a delight to work with. If you have a weird or half-baked idea for your wedding day, Bill is your guy. He will make it come to life and make it better than you ever imagined! We truly cannot recommend him highly enough!

Your wedding is one of the most memorable and significant days of your life. Picturesque Kellogg Manor is a wonderful choice to bring beauty, luxury, and a one-of-a kind wedding experience to the couple, and all your guests. From your ceremony, reception, rehearsal dinner, or bridal shower, we can do it all. Here at the Manor House, we know that planning a wedding is a big undertaking, and we would love to take the stress of the day off your shoulders.

We had originally planned to have a wedding in Chicago, but when COVID hit we decided to have our wedding near my grandparents on Gull Lake. We were incredibly lucky we could have our ceremony here. It was perfect and Nicole was great to work with. Everything went super smoothly. Also my wife’s family stayed in one of the cottages nearby, which was great. We had our rehearsal dinner outside the house and had our pictures taken on the grounds. Oh and we got picked up by boat after the ceremony, which we couldn’t have done anywhere else.

Once a private residence, now a unique 22,000 sqft wedding & event venue for any style nestled in mature woods in Lizton, Indiana. You and your guests will feel right at home in our cozy estate with elaborate woodwork and beautiful secluded grounds. The moment your guests drive down our tree-lined driveway, they’ll know you chose to bring them somewhere unique and begin experiencing a day that won’t be forgotten. Lizton Lodge offers several indoor venue options and three outdoor options each with their own unique characteristics and style. We don’t take the task of hosting your big day lightly.

Our mission every day is to make sure that we not only provide the facilities that meet your needs, but to step beyond your expectations with service and detail that make your wedding or event more memorable than you could imagine.

Lizton Lodge was the first venue we toured to host our wedding, and we might as well have skipped the 3 other venues we toured that day. With its beautiful architecture, scenery, and staff, Lizton Lodge was all we could have ever asked for out of a venue. They were very responsive whenever we reached out with questions, and were always open to us visiting the venue throughout the wedding planning process. We received so much feedback during our reception about how it was the best wedding venue that our guests have ever been to, which obviously made us extremely happy to hear. If you would like to have a unique wedding, this venue is perfect for you as they provide every couple with so many different options for ceremony and reception locations, layouts, and their own decor. The getting ready areas for both sides of the wedding party are amazing and provide more space than you’ll ever need. We could not recommend this venue enough!
