I’ve put off writing this review because I didn’t want to do a disservice to the Treasury. To start, the venue is stunning, it made planning so easy for a bride like me who had no idea where to start for decor. The thing that you can’t see in pictures is how incredible the staff is. They were super communicative throughout the entire process. Any questions I had, they would answer within a day or two of me reaching out. They were proactive when a deadline came up, sending a heads up message a few weeks before so even if I had forgotten, I had time to get everything together. Finally, I did not expect their attentiveness on the actual day of our wedding but Hayley and Josh helped make us feel so special the whole day. The discord on wedding Facebook and TikTok is that the venue coordinator is there for the venue and to not expect them to help out day of except for anything venue related. That was not my experience at all, for example, I got sucked into talking to guests while dinner was being served and yet almost an hour after everyone ate, Josh arranged my husbands and my dinner in the private room, and it was freshly cooked and still hot. My wedding day was one of my best days so far, and so much of that can be attributed to the Treasury.

It’s honestly hard to put into words how much this venue, and the amazing team behind it, meant to us. My husband and I got married here just a couple of weeks ago, and it was the most perfect day we could have ever imagined. So much of that is thanks to this place and the people who made it all happen. From the very beginning, Jillissa was absolutely incredible. She was the kindest, most organized and responsive person - always quick to answer our (many) questions, and she sent us everything we could’ve possibly needed, from videos and photos to charts and layouts. She really took the time to get to know us and what we were envisioning, offering suggestions or possibilities/options along the way when we were left unsure. By the time our wedding day came around, it genuinely felt like we were working with a friend - someone who truly cared and had our backs every step of the way. When wedding planning became chaotic and stressful, Jillissa provided encouragement, support, an uplifting spirit at exactly the right times. Even in those inevitable last-minute moments where things came up, she jumped in without hesitation. She went above and beyond in ways we’ll genuinely never forget. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful. The town of Marshall is sooo full of charm. It's walkable, historic, and full of kind, welcoming people. It felt like the perfect place to bring everyone we love together. And Schuler’s catering was unreal!! Our guests couldn’t stop talking about the food. The entire service staff was absolutely amazing - so warm, so professional, and completely on top of everything. Because of them, the whole day flowed effortlessly, and we got to just relax and be in the moment without a single worry or hiccup. I wish I could thank them more. What really blew us away, though, were the little touches. We had a private tasting with custom menus and a welcome sign at Schuler's, a sweet card waiting at our hotel (The Royal Hotel - perfectly located AT the venue), and even a handwritten note and gift from the venue (a gift that truly meant more to us than I can express online). Those are the kinds of things that don’t show up on a contract but come from people who truly care, and it showed in every single detail. Choosing this venue was easily one of the best decisions we made. We’ll always remember how beautiful it was (our first pull to the venue itself), but more than that, we’ll remember how it made us feel. So loved, so supported, and so genuinely celebrated. I’ll forever be grateful we got to start our marriage here. This venue will forever hold a special place in my heart and I hope the same for others.

Cherry Creek was the perfect space for our Beauty and the Beast themed wedding! The elegant décor and gilded accents certainly evoke the ambience of the ballroom scene from the film without coming across as overdone. One of our favorite features of this venue is the conservatory, which provides a stunning panoramic view of the grounds; the view is made even more magical during an autumnal sunset when the golds and oranges of the changing leaves really pop. In addition to the beauty of the venue, I must highlight the wonderful staff at Cherry Creek. Our guests had numerous compliments for the staff on the day of our wedding, and my husband and I cannot say enough wonderful things about Cherry Creek's staff and all of the hard work they put in behind the scenes to ensure our day was special. In particular, we want to give a shoutout to Shadia and Stefani, Cherry Creek's catering sales manager and event specialist (and our day-of coordinator), respectively. Both Shadia and Stefani are extremely professional, knowledgeable, and compassionate--they were excellent communicators throughout the entire wedding planning process and they made sure that we reviewed every detail before the big day. Stefani even came to the rescue on our wedding day when some wardrobe malfunctions occurred right before the ceremony! I could go on and on about how wonderful these two women are, but for the sake of brevity I will simply say that if you are considering Cherry Creek as your wedding venue and you have the opportunity to work with Shadia and Stefani, take that opportunity! They are wonderful and will ensure your wedding day is everything you hoped for and more. Finally, I would be remiss if I did not mention how fabulous the food is at Cherry Creek. My husband and I received rave reviews from numerous guests about the hors d'oeuvres, dinner service, dessert bar, and cocktails from our wedding, and we wholeheartedly agree with those reviews (the beef tenderloin cut like butter and the Boursin whipped potatoes were the best we've ever had). We especially loved that we had the ability to tailor our signature cocktails to fit the wedding theme. We also received many compliments about the ice cream sandwich bar (unfortunately, we were too stuffed to enjoy the ice cream ourselves!). In short, Cherry Creek was the perfect venue for our wedding day; if you are looking for all the beauty and romance of a fairy tale for your special day, then I highly recommend you choose Cherry Creek Golf Club!

My husband and I had our wedding at 2Gather Elegant Event Venue and we were so happy with our choice! The venue coordinators were extremely helpful, timely in their responses, and really listened to what we wanted for our big day. The quality and value were amazing - the space was clean and very well organized for our wedding events. They worked seamlessly with our other vendors to flip the room three times from cocktail hour, to dinner, to late night dancing and games. The coordinators helped us create floorplans and made modifications when needed. All of our guests loved the space and different things we were able to do with it. They also had a bunch of great places on the grounds to take photos - I loved that I didn’t have to find park to get outside photos. I would highly recommend 2Gather Elegant Event Venue to any engaged couple looking for an stress-free wedding venue that delivers excellent service and a fun, memorable event!

Lifepoint Chapel was the perfect venue to hold our ceremony. From the very beginning, we had a wonderful feeling. Our tour of the chapel was beautiful. The large windows on either side create an enchanting ambiance during your “I do’s” and showcase the couple, as well as the bridal party. The pricing is very affordable compared to other vendors in the area, and this place is great if you’re looking to just have your ceremony there, or they do have a reception space as well as suites and bathrooms. The bridal and grooms suites were the perfect size, have decor and furniture that look great in pictures, and help you feel comfortable during your big day. The communication from the venue coordinator as well as the day of coordinator, officiant and sound technician were nothing short of amazing. Wonderful, kind people who are not only there for their job but actually care about the people, and help you along the way with any and all questions you may have. They make sure down to the details that your day is absolutely perfect, and ours was! Chrissy was great in communicating via email all of the details of our booking, and helped with questions. Jim, our day of coordinator, understood when we had car troubles the night of the rehearsal, and waited to start until we got there, but entertained our bridal party and family. He helped make a stressful night a relaxing one, and not worrying about the wedding day. Our officiant, Dale, made sure that our vows were pristine, and said and did exactly what we wanted. The sound tech was given super detailed instructions with our first kiss as a couple, and he nailed it!! All of the songs that were played were played perfectly. Overall, every person we talked to or met in this process was nothing short of kind, professional, friendly, personal, and very supportive. We couldn’t recommend a better venue that is just full of good people, views, aesthetics, and affordability.

We had the pleasure of having our wedding reception this past September 2025 at the Crofoot and could not have been happier with our decision! We spent lots of time checking different venues such as hotels and country clubs, but when we walked in, it felt perfect for us! The venue itself and history is its own talking point. There was plenty of room for our 200 guests with so much to look at and explore. We loved how there were bars available for our guests pretty much everywhere (upstairs, downstairs, by the dance floor, outside on the patio). Our favorite moment was seeing how the venue started to look the morning of our wedding (we got ready at the venue, also highly recommend as there is a private area upstairs for bridal/wedding party to get ready with lots of space and a pool table) to dropping our jaws in "awe" coming back prior to the reception. The transformation that this staff put together in the Crofoot in preparation for the reception was truly remarkable. We got and still get to this day so many comments about how beautiful and amazing the place looked. One of my favorite comments was that every room felt different with its own vibe and walking into the main hall area was like entering a page from Alice in Wonderland. We had the pleasure of working with Kristine and was even lucky enough to meet Blair the owner. They both are wonderful people and made sure our expectations were exceeded. Thank you again and please do not hesitate to have your wedding transformed into a magical one at the Crofoot!

My Husband and I visited 5 venues and fell in love with not only the Holly Vault but also Alisa and her team. We fell in love with the unique space and felt that it was the perfect space for us. We loved that the venue offered and/or included: linens, tables, chairs, silverware, plates, catering, drinks, coordinator, getting ready space, and ceremony options. Alisa is the best of the best and thought about every detail that I would never have thought about. She made our day memorable and seamless from start to finish. We were truly able to live in the moment and didn’t have to worry about getting drinks, missing our desserts or appetizers because they were placed at our table throughout the night. Alisa was so easy to work with and her communication was clear and fast. If I had a question I would just either email or text her and would get response within 24 hours. I was completely confident in the team and they made wedding planning easy and my wedding day seamless. Out of all the venues we visited and all teams we have met, the Holly Vault collection is truly the best venue and the team is the best of the best. I wish I could relive my wedding day all over again because of this team and venue!

Just had our wedding here almost 2 weeks ago and it could not have been better! We worked with Ashley Willis and she was incredible at making sure everything during the planning process went smoothly and was too our liking. She made suggestions when we wanted a different setup or different ideas for appetizers or desserts that were more unique and satisfied dietary restrictions! She even made suggestions for changes to make for the filet when I wasn't 100% in love with the flavor after our first tasting. She made sure to check in with us leading up to the day and ensured that everything went according to plan and that we could enjoy the weekend. Upon arrival at the Townsend, all members of the staff were gracious and helpful to myself, family, and friends. It was a great place for the bridal party to get ready and a beautiful venue for the ceremony and reception. We had the ceremony in the foyer - which was stunning and used the tea lobby and foyer for cocktail hour then moved into the ballroom for the party. The ballroom has recently been painted to a fresh white color and there is new neutral carpet so the ballroom feels updated and fresh. I could not have picked a better venue. We brought in linens, chairs, and other decor but also used several of the included pieces from the hotel for our event. Everyone loved the food and thought the hotel was beautiful! We had brunch in the Regency Room, which was perfect as well. From planning to the day of service, I was very happy with The Townsend and would definitely recommend this venue and give high praise to Ashley and her team!

We were truly blown away by our experience with FWB. We had the best wedding day, and the venue & service were such a big factor in that. Both Robin & Riley were phenomenal to work with- so patient, quick to respond and always answered the many questions we had. We loved doing the food tasting ahead of the wedding as well as the wine/beer tasting. Riley was there to walk us through the rehearsal the night before and was amazing on the wedding day to coordinate the ceremony and schedule throughout the night. I really appreciated how she checked in with us to make sure we weren’t overwhelmed and made sure that when we did take a minute to take a breath, there was food and drinks in the suite for us. We really loved being able to have the bridal suites for the day- it was awesome. The service for the reception was phenomenal. Staff always ensured we had full plates & drinks so that we could focus on interacting with guests. We cannot overstate how much we love FWB’s food. Not only at the wedding and throughout the tastings, but we had so many guests comment on how amazing all the food was. I highly recommend the rosemary pork and the chicken marsala. The mushroom ravioli was a fan favorite and we heard comments about it all night. Since the wedding we have visited FWB multiple times just to eat there because the food is that good. The coordination of the entire day was seriously flawless and took so much stress off our shoulders. We were able to focus on having fun while they ensured things were set-up, running on time and later taken down without us having to lift a finger (except for our own decor that we brought!). If you’re thinking about choosing FWB for your big day- do it! We had such a great experience and can’t stop talking about it.

Living in Las Vegas, I got plenty of puzzled looks when I told friends and family we were getting married in Michigan. Neither my fiancé nor I have any ties there—but the moment I discovered Planterra Conservatory, I knew it had to be our venue. Choosing it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. You might think planning a wedding across the country would be stressful, but not with Planterra and their incredible team. Everything was seamless from start to finish. They were there every step of the way, ensuring every single detail was perfect. From the unforgettable menu tasting event, to their unbelievably talented floral design team, to their professional staff—every aspect exceeded our expectations. Throughout the night, guests couldn’t stop talking about how stunning the venue was, how flawless everything felt, and how this was the best wedding they’d ever attended. If you want to guarantee your dream wedding, stop searching and book with Planterra. They’ll make your vision come to life and then some.
