“My husband and I had a perfect wedding weekend at Off map! The staff was great at communicating through the whole process and always offering help when needed. It was awesome to have around 70 of our friends and family stay on campus with us the whole weekend. The tents and cabins were beautiful. Many tents included bathrooms although the community bathrooms were very clean and there were no issues. I had multiple guests who weren’t campers staying in safari tents who said they loved it and want to go back. I also had guests tell me it was the best wedding they have ever been to! The lodge was extremely beautiful and the perfect place for the girls to get ready in. My husband also loved getting ready in the pull barn. We had our ceremony in the forest which was breathtaking followed by cocktail hour on the lawn and dinner/dancing under the tents. We ended our night with silent disco back in the woods! This structure is extremely flexible and off map was willing to accommodate the many areas of the property you can have your ceremony or reception at. I honestly cannot recommend Off Map Glamping enough, especially if you are looking for a unique wedding weekend experience.”

We are a Brand new start up Venue in Hastings MI. I have been in the wedding industry for 15 years and have learned that there are very few places out there that are willing to put the time and effort into each event. 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.”
