We are only an hour's drive from Grand Rapids and Kalamazoo.

We held an intimate, outdoor wedding early in April at the Orchard Pond, and it could not have been more perfect. The staff was so amazing in taking care of so many details and helping us plan, and even managed to keep chairs dry for guests outdoors on a rainy Michigan day. They even worked with us a bit on the time to wait for the rain to clear and were so flexible! I also cannot say enough about how beautiful the setting is. I have attended larger weddings in the orchard on the hill, but beside the pond on the dock, with the lovely pine grove, the soft sounds of wind and the wildlife, and the rippling waves across the pond was truly the perfect spot for our intimate affair. The setting is beautiful and allowed our photographer to get many great photos from lots of different angles. The amazing staff also helped us plan our dream wedding in under a month and helped us stay on budget while still having a beautiful, unforgettable day. I truly cannot say enough about the Orchard. It truly is the perfect outdoor wedding venue!

Wow your guests by hosting the event of a lifetime at The Oakley. Enjoy the quiet calmness of the secluded property with the high end finishes in the venue. Located within minutes of delicious food and unique shops in Holly and Fenton, this is a destination you won't want to miss!

We cannot recommend The Oakley enough! The venue and grounds are beautiful - pictures do not do The Oakley justice. Alicia, Lily, Kathy, and Ken went above and beyond to ensure our day was absolutely perfect. Alicia and Lily are wonderful to work with, both day-of and during the planning process; they are sweet, responsive, and incredibly organized! When we had an issue with a vendor, Alicia did not hesitate to step in to help us. Kathy and Ken were just as kind and generous, going out of their way to help in any way they could. We could not have asked for a better experience for our wedding! We love The Oakley family!

We had a beautiful wedding at Woldumar and overall, our day was amazing! It was great to have our ceremony and reception all in one place, and my husband and I loved investing in a venue that provides a service to the Lansing community through nature education programs. Our only snag was that Woldumar had several staffing changes during the course of our wedding planning, so communication with staff was not always consistent or clear. Overall we would recommend hosting your wedding at Woldumar!
