The natural setting and walking trails offer plenty of opportunities for unique wedding photography.

We were married at the Lussier Family Heritage Center in October and it was perfect! We were looking for something in our budget that let us bring in our own food and beverages. They were so easy to work with and the flexibility was incredible. We loved being married under the Heritage Oak tree but there were so many other options for ceremony locations that people could chose from (old barn backdrop, back patio next to the prairie, indoors, etc). My favorite part was hearing hundreds of cranes calling in the distance as they roosted for the night. If you are looking for a beautiful, natural setting and want something where you can get creative with your catering and beverage service, this is your place!

We ended up having an amazing wedding at Scenic View Country Club in October 2020. The space is nicely laid out and provides plenty of room with dance floor, huge bar and separate dining area. The wrap around porch provided nice outdoor space and would be great for cocktail hours, weather permitting. The views of the trees and green provided a great backdrop for ceremony and pictures. When COVID hit, there were a few changes in their event coordinators which made us a little nervous but once we got Clarissa a few months before our day, that all changed. Clarissa and her staff really made our day special. She was organized and great at communication leading up to our day. Planning a wedding in 2020 wasn't easy but I appreciated Clarissa's flexibility and help as we got closer. Day of, she was so helpful keeping us on track and making sure everything ran smoothly. We had some rain scheduled but still wanted to keep the ceremony outside if possible. We luckily got a window before our ceremony began and the staff was out there wiping off chairs and leaf blowing puddles so I wouldn't get my dress wet. Throughout the night, the staff continued to do an amazing job with serving dinner and keeping our guests happy! We were also very impressed with the food and heard nothing but good things from guests. Overall, we were thrilled with our experience and very happy with our choice to have our special day at Scenic View!

The Abbey Resort & Avani Spa

Fontana, WI
  • Up to 400 guests
  • All-inclusive

  • Starts at $10,000

Imagine... The sparkling waters of Lake Geneva provide the backdrop as you walk down the aisle to meet your new partner in life. After you say “I do,” you celebrate with your friends and family in a beautiful room set the way you always imagined. A delicious dinner toasts from the wedding party, and you dance the night away without a care in the world. Your dream wedding can come true at The Abbey Resort. From the moment you meet one of our Wedding Professionals to the morning you leave as a married couple, we aim to make every moment of planning and execution flawless. Whether a small, intimate ceremony in one of our gazebos or a lavish reception celebration in our ballroom, we want your day to be uniquely you, stress-free, and absolutely perfect. Expect nothing short of grandeur for your beautiful lakeside wedding on Lake Geneva.

Starting from the first call we had with Amelia (Sales Manager in charge of their room blocks) last November while Jonathan (Wedding-Catering Sales Manager) was out of the office, we knew The Abbey was going to be an amazing venue to work with. Her vibrant personality could be felt over the phone, and made me feel like we’d known her for years. This rang true through every single phone call and email we had during our wedding planning, all the way through being onsite for our wedding week. Amelia is friendly, approachable, a great listener, accommodating, timely, and hospitable to name just a few. We genuinely felt like she cared about the success of our wedding, and the experience that our guests were going to have. She went as far as working with the reservations team to ensure we got a suite that was previously reserved when it opened up, customizing our wedding block to fit our guests’ needs, helping ensure guest welcome bags were distributed, and welcoming us for our stay with a gift basket note. We truly believe we would have ended up having our wedding elsewhere if I hadn’t tracked her down last November. Similar to Amelia - from the first time we connected with Jonathan to start planning our wedding, we knew we had something unique in our venue team, and felt confident we’d be in great hands throughout the process. Jonathan always responded to our frequent emails in an extremely timely manner – often right away even when we told him to wait until business hours – and it often felt like he was one step ahead of us. He was extremely helpful with providing his industry expertise, guiding our decision making based on previous experience with weddings / large events, and felt confident that he ultimately had our best interests in mind. He helped us incorporate unique components / details to our wedding that our guests are still talking about, and gave us the sweetest welcome package in our suite! (And recommended we book a great secluded suite!) Jonathan somehow was able to accommodate all of our requests in some way or another, and always made us feel like he was so personally invested. We never could have imagined working with someone so responsive, flexible, detail-oriented, and somehow as passionate about our wedding as we were. His organizational and coordination skills shined exceptionally throughout the last 10 months – even the day after the wedding he was helping us move things out of the ballroom and transferring flowers to brunch. He was truly there every step of the way. We have not been able to stop raving about both Jonathan and Amelia to anyone who asks, and can confidently say we don’t have any negative feedback to share about our experience. Our guests have been the same way and have all been positively commenting on their whole experience. Any challenges that came up throughout our process were always met with solutions, a clear path forward, and their team going above and beyond. Jonathan and Amelia were even there to see us out the Monday after our wedding as we departed, and made not only us but also our parents feel like family. Truly everyone from check-in, Greg at valet, and restaurant spa staff, to the catering events teams and management being open to our ever changing requests ( and keeping up with our large group size) – everyone was so accommodating to work with. We cannot say more positive things about the staff, venue, and our experience!

They have a wide range of decor available from their back room, and the barn looked wonderful lit up with their ambient lighting at night. The grounds made for some beautiful golden hour photos. Couldn't have asked for more.

Creek Bend Nature Center

St. Charles, IL
  • Up to 175 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor

Creek Bend Nature Center is available for your special event. This charming venue is located within beautiful LeRoy Oakes Forest Preserve on the banks of Ferson Creek in St. Charles. This gorgeous facility will take your event from special to extraordinary. We provide the facility and grounds. You provide the special touches that make the event uniquely yours.

Creek bend was such a perfect fit for our wedding, we essentially wanted a field but the house of the grounds was the cherry on top. When it was a bit rainy the house was the perfect place to take pictures, we loved the dark wood library! The only thing that was disappointing is that we wanted to get ready at the venue but they wouldn’t open until 9:00 which wouldn’t have given us enough time to get ready for the ceremony. They were easy to communicate with and worked well with our wedding planner. Would definitely recommend!

Pheasant Valley Barn
Brooklyn, WI
  • Up to 300 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor

We welcome you to Pheasant Valley Barn! The barn is nestled in a scenic valley on the "back farm", away from the daily activities of our dairy operation. The Byrne family started dairy farming in Wisconsin after emigrating from Ireland in the 1870's. In 2003, we decided to renovate our 1890's barn. We added a new metal roof and restored the interior of the barn. To celebrate, we had a barn dance for Duane's parents' 40th anniversary. Thus began "The Party Barn". In the fall of 2018, our son Cory married his fiance, Jenny. It confirmed our idea of starting a barn venue and sharing our barn and farm with others. We have been asked many times, "Why don't you rent out this barn?" We have decided the time is right to diversify our farm and start this event business. We are so happy that we restored our barn. As more and more barns and farms are lost, our barn is preserved and now can be shared with others to create a memorable and special day for your event!

The Barn at Brophy Creek Farm
De Witt, IA
  • Up to 275 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor

At the Barn at Brophy Creek, we are a family run business on a fourth generation farm. Running along the edge of Brophy Creek, the farm was purchased in the 1950's by my grandfather who immigrated from Germany and worked the farm as a hired man when he was 18 years old. The next generation took over and my dad began farming the land. My husband and I moved into the farmhouse where we raised our 4 beautiful children. I’ve stayed on this acreage my entire life. It is my history. Eventually, my dad retired and the buildings began to deteriorate. I knew we had to save these historic buildings and share them with the community, so we got creative and dreamed up the wedding and event venue that Brophy Creek is today. Luckily, my husband is able to take the dreams and visions I have in my head and make them reality. In 2015 we began dreaming it up, tearing it apart, and rebuilding - we've put our lives into this space.
