Our wedding was beautiful, we couldn’t have asked for a better day or venue. The castle was a stunning backdrop for our wedding. We had our rehearsal dinner, ceremony, and reception at Meyer’s Castle and each piece came perfectly together. The newly redecorated bridal suite is gorgeous and my bridal party and I felt like royalty getting ready. The florals and gardens were stunning and there is an Instagram worthy photo spot around every corner. Our coordinator, Eva, did a great job setting up all of our decor and was very communicative throughout the planning process. Eva and the MC team accommodated everything we wanted to include on our special day and our guests had nothing but wonderful things to say about our wedding. Everyone loved the food and even loved the table wine, numerous guests took photos of the wine so that they could buy a bottle later on. We are so glad to have started the rest of our lives together after saying “I Do” at Meyer’s Castle; surrounded by family, friends, and 2 beautiful peacocks that roam the grounds.

My husband and I were married here on 7.13.2024. It was heavenly!!! When we toured other venues in the southwest Michigan region no place felt quite right. We happened to hear about Inisfree in passing and decided to drive over. Peggy and Bruce (the owners) couldn't have been kinder and more welcoming and they remained that way the entire process and continue to be! They have so much passion for Inisfree and it shows. The ground are beautiful and immaculate and they truly love to engage with people. We also rented all ten rooms out at the bed and breakfast for our wedding weekend and got special and intimate time with our friends- from pool time, garden/patio hangs, and delicious home made breakfasts (quiche, zucchini bread, blueberry muffins just to name some of my favorites). Our friends/wedding party who stayed onsite continue to rave about their stay and the guests of our wedding party couldn't get over how beautiful the property is. Everyone loved silent disco!!! Do you self a favor and book a tour. The place speaks for itself. We can't wait to return for our anniversary :)

I got married here in August and it was the most incredible day. The end of summer is when the garden is in full bloom which makes having an outside ceremony ethereal. When we toured the venue, I knew immediately it was where I would marry my husband. I've never seen a venue so unique and beautiful. I adored the getting ready spaces, the ceremony arch, the chandelier in the reception, and the vintage cohesion of the entire venue. The separate bar/dancing room and reception/dinner space is genius, especially if you plan on having guests that aren't interested in dancing but want a comfortable area to converse. It rained during our reception but it made it all the more special to be safe inside celebrating while it stormed outside. We worked with Liv who went above and beyond for us. I am sad to not have another opportunity to work with her again! She was so helpful and accommodating during our tour and rehearsal, and made sure everything ran smoothly during the ceremony, AND she came back when we accidentally blew a breaker. Overall, I highly recommend choosing Sundance and the Secret Garden to have your wedding, as well as one of their sister venues if you prefer a different setting. I enjoyed working with Amelia and Kirby, who were helpful and quick with their communication. It's a true testament to their artistry experiencing the heart and soul poured into these incredible venues during the most special day of our lives. I will reminisce on every moment forever.

Working with Felt was a dream! It was so easy to plan a picturesque wedding there because the house and the grounds are gorgeous as-is. From unique details like walking paths to the lake and a piano for us to enjoy in the house, to the convenience and fun of having the ceremony, cocktail hour, photo shoots, and reception all at different beautiful spots right onsite, Felt was the perfect combination of relaxed and elegant and it made for an absolutely perfect and stress-free day.

We had our wedding at Port 393 on December 14, 2024, and it was an absolutely unforgettable experience. Chloe, our wedding planner, was incredibly attentive and had everything under control from start to finish. Her meticulous attention to detail allowed us to relax and truly enjoy our special day. Chloe was always easy to reach and guided us through every step of the planning process. On the day of the wedding, she made sure I had everything I needed and went above and beyond to make the day special. She even took care of loading up the car throughout the night, so we could focus on enjoying time with our family and each other. The decorations were stunning, and the entire venue looked beautiful. I highly recommend letting Port 393 handle all the details—they truly made our wedding everything we had hoped for and more. It was a fun and memorable day, thanks to their exceptional service.

If you are looking for a ONE OF A KIND and modern barn themed wedding, Etre Farms is the location that surpasses all others. Not only is the venue unlike anything I have seen before but the staff from Day 1 have been so approachable and amazing to deal with. Rather than telling us rules and limitations and "cookie cutter" packages like most venues, the staff at Etre Farms got to know my fiancée & myself as a couple and our personalities before anything else. Their attention to detail is refreshing and gives us confidence in our wedding running flawless in May of 2022.

They are super helpful with day of and great at communicating with any questions. Day of they set up the tables and chairs for you and tear it all down. They also have custom wood tables which were great and then we didn't need any linens for them. They also are very well priced, and they have a variety of caterers and bartenders you can use and have suggestions for other venders needed for a wedding.
