The Clark’s Lakeside 

5.0

Homer, MI
  • Up to 200 guests
  • Select services
  • Outdoor & indoor
  • Starts at $1,800

We began our journey in 2015 with a dusty gravel pit and vision for a new home. The gem was the stunning 30 acre crystal clear lake. After purchasing the property we found ourselves hosting church activities and work functions as people truly loved being here. Slowly, we began adding amenities to the property. In 2020 one of our daughters got engaged. As she began looking for a venue to host her wedding we came to realize that the perfect spot was right in front of us. We wanted it to be a very special place and we went to work to create a beautiful wedding venue. There are many opportunities on the property for one of a kind pictures. There are two picturesque options in front of the lake for the service and a new reception building that can seat up to 200 guests. With a 5 acre campus larger weddings can be accommodated with tent rental.

The Clark's Lakeside is an excellent choice for a wedding venue. The venue itself is beautiful, with spacious indoor and outdoor spaces that offer great value. As the DJ, I found their team to be very welcoming when I set up the day before the reception, and the large garage-style doors and vehicle access made the load-in and load-out process incredibly easy. The lakeside ceremony space was absolutely stunning and provided the perfect backdrop for the couple's special day. I'd highly recommend checking this space out to any couple looking for a beautiful venue!

We had the most incredible wedding at Bay Pointe Woods in May 2024, and we couldn't be happier with our experience! The venue is absolutely stunning, with beautiful natural surroundings, serene atmosphere, and perfectly maintained grounds. The staff went above and beyond to ensure that every detail was taken care of, making our special day feel effortless and stress-free. From the moment we booked, we felt completely supported. The team at Bay Pointe Woods was responsive, professional, and genuinely invested in making our wedding everything we dreamed of. The outdoor ceremony space was breathtaking, and our guests couldn't stop talking about how perfect the setting was. The reception area was equally impressive, providing the perfect backdrop for a fun and elegant evening. We loved that everything was seamlessly coordinated, and the flow of the day was smooth from start to finish.

My husband and I had our wedding ceremony and reception at the Lakes of Taylor Golf Club on June 24, 2023. We were thrilled with how friendly and accommodating all of the staff was during our wedding day. Our guests couldn't stop talking about how the food was delicious and how they loved talking to our bartenders. The venue also accommodated some of our guest's dietary restrictions and our bar menu. We planned our event with Debbie. She was helpful and organized. She couldn't make it on our special day, so Nancy filled in during our rehearsal and wedding day. Nancy was also very helpful, accommodating, and kind. The ceremony space was beautiful! It included an arch with white flowers and greenery draped over it. Our only complaint was how hot the reception hall was. Some of the guests said they were comfortable with the temperature. It was a very hot and humid day outside. The building is a little bit older so it was difficult to regulate the temperature. Overall, the Lakes of Taylor Golf Club was the perfect venue for our wedding. Our package included two entrees at the buffet, a wedding cake, table linens, and bar. The price was perfect for everything included in our package. The location is close to the airport and great for having a ceremony/reception at the same venue. We couldn't be happier with our choice!

Its been two weeks since our wedding and we have not stopped getting compliments on our venue. It was beautiful, the food was great, service was fantastic. It may just be the stress of being an anxiety-ridden bride, I found the staff a little hard to work with in the planning phases. My husband took it over for me and had no issues, so probably a me-thing. But throughout the whole process, Daphne was very professional, communicative, and the day was everything we had dreamed it to be. Even my mother was tremendously happy with the venue, and she's not easy to please!

The Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village play a very special role in the relationship of my husband and I; we both have fond childhood memories of the museum, we had our second date - and many others - there, and that is where he proposed. There was never another wedding venue that we considered, something crystalized after speaking with the events team. Donna and the rest of the events team at The Henry Ford helped us seamlessly navigate the process of preparing, planning, and celebrating our dream wedding ceremony and reception at The Henry Ford Museum. From the initial discussion and tour to the moment we left at the end of our reception, the events team helped ensure that everything was perfect and brought our vision to life. On the day of our wedding, the ceremony and reception venues were absolutely stunning, the food was beyond delicious, and many of our guests gushed about how amazing it was to get to explore the museum while celebrating with us. After the wedding, my husband and I decided that we were so happy that we plan to be lifetime members of The Henry Ford. We cannot thank The Henry Ford (and Donna in particular) enough for the part they played in our dream wedding celebration!

We had the wedding day of our dreams at Stonebridge. This venue is gorgeous with many options for personalization(decoration wise) and photos. The indoor/outdoor versatility is awesome so guests don’t feel confined to one area throughout the night. The staff is amazing and always there to make sure we had everything we needed. My husband and I didn’t have to go and get ourselves drinks/snacks the entire time because we were constantly asked if we needed anything. The food is delicious! Our guests raved this was the best wedding food they’ve ever eaten. The staff is super personable and accommodating which you will realize from the very moment you step into Stonebridge for a wedding consultation. Every single aspect we discussed was orchestrated for us on our big day and MORE! I have to give a well deserved shoutout to Kim, Jeff and Hannah for playing a special part in making our wedding dreams come true. We have said multiple times since our wedding that we would not change a single thing about our amazing day and that was all thanks to the amazing people at Stonebridge. This is THE venue!! And I guarantee you will not regret your decision to have your wedding here.

They were even able to help us find a DJ who was amazing, before they helped us I was so worried about a DJ, so to have them be able to help, was truly amazing. We even at the end decided to upgrade the lighting, which was a great choice. Everything looked great and went so smoothly and we and our guest had a blast.

I can’t recommend this venue enough!! After touring countless venues in metro Detroit and finding nothing that fit our budget or expectations, I was feeling pretty defeated. That was, until we stumbled across The Summerhouse venue at Fox Hills Golf & Banquet. This was the outdoor venue of my dreams, where Catie and the entire staff made our vision come to life. We had rave reviews of the food, staff, decor and natural beauty of the venue from guests, and our day couldn’t have been more perfect. You’re able to customize countless options to fit any budget or vision you have for your day and there are 3 different venues within Fox Hills to fit any aesthetic you’re looking for. I am so happy we went with this venue and you will be too! -signed a very happy bride!!

We knew we were going to need a large space with our guest count but there was zero compromise on intimacy along with attention to detail at the Masonic. They offer several customizable options for bridal/ groom suites, catering, cocktail hour, and reception. The main ballroom looked stunning especially the two main chandeliers. Although the packages/ guidelines seemed rigid, we were eventually able to get most of the results we were looking for through some tinkering and back and forth correspondence. We were very impressed by the catering and waitstaff as the food received several compliments throughout the night. The only complaints on our end would be the temperature regulation of the main ballroom, which I'm sure comes with the building being older, and some areas of “hospitality”. There were a lot of things that were agreed upon in person but when it came time to be put into writing, those conversations were either misunderstood or backtracked. As I mentioned before, we eventually got to the result we were looking for but often received some resistance upfront.

Garden Theater

Detroit, MI
  • Up to 250 guests

  • Starts at $10,000

Renowned “movie palace” architect C. Howard Crane designed Detroit’s historic Garden Theater, a commission he earned after he opened his own firm in Detroit in 1908. In addition to the Garden Theater, Crane has 250 theaters to his credit, 62 of which were built in Detroit, like The Majestic, The Fox, Orchestra Hall, the Detroit Opera House, and The Fillmore Detroit. One of the city’s earliest neighborhood theaters, the Garden Theater opened to the public in 1912. With its 900-seat capacity, it was one of the largest theaters built outside downtown; it originally hosted live stage shows and motion pictures. As the name implies, Crane cleverly incorporated vines, birds and other garden-style decorations in its design to immerse patrons in an outdoor-like experience. After decades in ruin, the theater underwent a multi-million-dollar restoration and was rededicated in 2013, a century after its initial debut, as part of Midtown’s vibrant resurgence.
