My husband and I got married at Meyer's Castle in early November, 2025. It was the most beautiful day ever, no matter that it was cold and rainy! We first fell in love with the venue when we toured in August 2024, and then after seeing a few other venues we went back to Meyer's for another tour and booked it. Everyone was so excited about the venue and still talks about it. Our coordinator Eva was a rock star on the day of the wedding! She was so helpful in reassuring me and getting me answers leading up to the wedding, but nothing can surpass how amazing she was on the day off. She took care of everything! She managed problems without me having to even hear them, she advocated for us, she helped decorate, and made us feel seen and taken care of. It began to rain shortly before the ceremony time and she made sure we got the idyllic outdoor ceremony of our dreams, and had umbrellas on hand as needed. She was there for the entire day and my sister couldn't stop singing her praises! We loved our wedding so much and highly recommend Meyer's Castle and Eva! Our photographer said the venue was a photographers dream, we got compliments on the food, and everyone had a great time! A day I would happily revisit anytime.

Having our wedding at Bay Pointe was to put it simply: perfection. We booked our wedding over a year in advance and from the first few seconds that we stepped in for our tour of the venue, we were in love. Mariesa, our sales manager, was so personable and so accommodating. The entire process leading up to the wedding was so efficient working with Madison. She was so communicative and so easy to work with. All of our changes, questions, recommendations, literally everything - she had an answer to! We always felt so welcomed by the entire staff. Our rehearsal dinner at the Bay Pointe Bar and Grill was beautiful and the staff that night were amazing - they made sure we were doing ok, our family was fed and everyone was having a good time. Lauren, our day of coordinator was excellent at her job. She worked so well with all of our vendors and family. We had the BEST time ever. The value is worth the money you spend. A huge thank you to everyone on the Bay Pointe team who helped us along the way and the weekend of.

We are a Brand new start up Venue in Hastings MI.

I wanted to open the doors to my own place to provide the best possible experience for anyone that comes through the doors. We have an amazing outdoor garden ceremony site that will transport you to a place of peace and serenity. I am adding more vendors in-house to provide quality and cost effective options for anyone interested in having one contact person for the entire experience.

We used Venue 1230 to host our wedding reception and we were so happy with how everything went. We would 10 out of 10 recommend this venue to all of our family and friends. Yon and his staff went above and beyond to accommodate our every need. The size of the venue itself was one thing that helped seal the deal for us. We had kids and there was more than enough space for them to play while the adults continued to mingle and enjoy themselves. We also highly appreciated how beautifully decorated the whole venue was. We barely had to bring anything in besides our basic table decorations. We had so many guests commenting on how tastefully everything was done. Another thing that I really appreciated was how much Yon and his team cared. They were always asking where they could help or how they could better serve us. At the end of the day, they did everything in their power to make sure that we had a perfect day that we would remember forever.

I would highly recommend Thousand Oaks for future brides. The coordinators are very organized and attentive and the packages are clear in their descriptions. However, being part of a larger entity, there is no wiggle room for negotiation. For example, we wanted to substitute Riesling instead of moscato. We couldn’t make that switch, but they did offer the Riesling at a consumption rate. That is our only complaint. The food, the cleanliness and appearance of the venue, and the staff were all excellent.

  • Not for you if you don't want a rustic vibe
Waltman Lake Lodge was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the moment we first reached out, their communication was fast, easy, and so helpful. Emma was quick to respond to my questions and acted quickly when my veil fell out seconds before I walked down the aisle. The venue itself was absolutely beautiful and worth every penny - it truly felt magical. They went above and beyond to help coordinate all of our vendors and made our wedding day the dream that we had envisioned. We couldn't have asked for a better venue to host our special day. 10/10 recommend

We couldn't have asked for a better experience at Michigan State University Horticulture Gardens. Victoria was incredibly responsive and went above and beyond helping us with decorating, vendor coordination, and layout planning. The venue itself is stunning with the perfect balance of existing plants, so we didn't need to bring in many decorations except for the tables! As a surprise, they installed new string lights across the ceiling two weeks before our wedding, and they kept them up as a permanent addition to the space. They even unlocked the butterfly garden so we could get photos there. From start to finish, Victoria's attention to detail and willingness to make our day special made all the difference! We were afraid that the space would feel too warm having to stay at a regulated temperature for the plants, but it was very comfortable from start to finish! We even closed the doors at one point to keep it warmer. (Our wedding day was about 62 degrees and windy)

Awarded Best of Zola
There is only one word to describe our experience with Ivy House and our coordinator: PERFECT. The venue is outstandingly beautiful and the staff are welcoming and were just as excited about our wedding as we were. Our coordinator, Heather, went above and beyond for us. She was extremely dedicated to making this our best day ever. We bonded with her instantly and our planning was a walk in the park because of her. She just made everything SO MUCH FUN. You would think on the day of your wedding, you would feel a little stress wondering if everything was going to go right, but with Heather there wasn't a doubt in our mind or even a little stress because we knew our day was in the best hands and everything was going to be perfect! She made our day completely stress free and took care of everything for us the day of from timeline, to making sure we had our drinks, getting our wedding party together, and simply just letting us enjoy the day as newlyweds. I wish we could get married here over and over and over again! Just insanely beautiful with an incredible staff. I hope we get to attend so many more weddings here to relive the best day ever! - Cassidy & Taylor Messer 10.03.25

I have worked with R&R on multiple occasions now and you truly could not act for a more versatile venue in the Southwest Michigan area. Each wedding I have been to at this venue has been put together in it’s own beautiful, unique way! I was also able to work with both Katie and Megan separately and it is clear how much of their hearts they have put into bringing this venue to life. From initial booking all the way to through your big day, the R&R girls know what to do. I see nothing but growth for R&R and I am so excited to follow along with their future projects and accomplishments!
