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!!

Awarded Best of Zola
I am so thankful that we chose to have our daughter's wedding reception at the Felt Estate. Words can't begin to describe our joy! Our daughter and her husband had their first date at the Felt Estate on a cold winter day in 2017. They went hiking to the Lake Michigan shoreline where they shared their first kiss. After their engagement, it wasn't surprising that the Felt Estate was the venue they wanted for their wedding reception. It was the perfect place to continue celebrating their love. I can't say enough good about our experience with the Felt Estate, and in particular Derrick, our event coordinator. Derrick is kind, compassionate, and very accessible. He answers his phone and emails promptly (on the weekends and even on the 4th of July). Derrick and the entire team were wonderful to work with pre-pandemic, but when COVID-19 brought unwanted news and uncertanties, Derrick was our advocate. He shared our desire for making this situation the best it could possibly be. Originally, we had a "Plan A" and a "Plan B" if it happened to rain. On the day of the wedding, we were probably on "Plan J" and "Plan K"!!  :) Derrick had many creative ideas to accommodate as many of our guests as possible using multiple spaces at the Felt Esate, but still abiding by the ever-changing state-mandated rules and guidelines. The staff at Felt went above and beyond to get spaces ready for us! (We are very thankful that we rented the whole estate rather than only the mansion/west lawn tent.) Our caterer said that out of all the venues they have worked with during the coronavirus pandemic, they have been the most impressed with Derrick and Holden (the other event coordinator). Communication and knowledge are so important at a time like this. While the day looked different than our original plans, it was still very dreamy and magical - everything the bride and groom hoped for!! As the bride's mother, I couldn't be more grateful!!!

Awarded Best of Zola
Sundance is such a unique and thoughtful venue, that no pictures can capture it's complete charm. We had our ceremony under the arbor outside and our reception in the dining/bar facilities inside. Every single guest commented on how wonderful and unique the space is. From the well tended gardens and walls of ivy outside to the rustic elegance and attention to detail inside, every aspect of this venue made our wedding even more special. The view from the street is so unassuming, you may drive by on your first visit. But once you step inside you will never forget this elegant venue. The staff was also incredibly kind and helpful. We couldn't have asked for a better experience at a magical destination.

Bissell Tree House at John Ball Zoo

Grand Rapids, MI
  • Up to 180 guests
  • Limited services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $3,500

Located in Grand Rapids, Michigan at the John Ball Zoo, the Bissell Tree House is one of West Michigan’s most unique event spaces. This hidden gem provides couples an amazing view of the downtown Grand Rapids area with its floor-to-ceiling glass windows. With its tree house feel and large covered veranda sitting at one of Grand Rapids' highest land points, couples can get that sense of being on top of the world as they share their love with family and friends. All proceeds benefit the conservation missions and animals of John Ball Zoo!

It has been nearly four years since my wife and I were married in the Bissell Treehouse, and there's not a week that we don't look back at our photo album, and reminiscence of our amazing experience there. We worked with Skye through all of the planning and setup, and I cannot experience how unique, amazing, and beautiful the venue is. We called it our treehouse adventure, and it was nothing short of that. The layout is excellent, it has great views of Grand Rapids, many of the bigger vendors work with the Bissell Treehouse, and overall it was a very easy process to get everything setup and squared away. If you have the opportunity to work with them, do it, it will be remembered forever, by you and all of your guests.
