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.

The staff at Waldenwoods Resort & Conference Center responded to every question, comment, and request very promptly, at least within 48 hours. I preferred email over phone calls so I could keep track of our conversations, and they fully delivered for our wedding day. They not only answered questions and requests, but I also had full confidence they would execute everything flawlessly. The Sunshine Cove was drop-dead gorgeous and an absolute steal of a price. It could not have been more magical for my husband and I. It was everything in my Pinterest board and more! You could not have gotten a more perfect outdoor, lake wedding style for the price they offer. We added drapery that enhanced the magical experience but it could also do without it. The lake was stunning and I can't even believe how beautiful the sunset looked across the lake. The nearby photo backdrops were also stunning! whichever direction you faced, the backdrop was amazing. We were in one location but the photos felt like we were in 10 different locations which brought different experiences in the photos. The staff at Waldenwoods was truly helpful on the day of our wedding. They made us our own plates and got us drinks so we didn't have to go through the buffet. Before the ceremony, they hid me away as the bride so no one would see me before the walk down the aisle. They got me a chair and kept me hydrated in the reception area. They were so thoughtful and really cared about my experience as a bride! I highly recommend Waldenwoods Resort for a stress-free wedding day. They think of everything and will do what they can to help you or give you confidence for your special day. S/O Jaiden for our gorgeous photos - insta: japhotographytn

We had such a great experience with Plymouth Manor for our wedding reception. They were able to accommodate our intimate reception of 60 guest. Aya and Sam were so amazing and helpful, they nailed it! The food and staff was great. They were even able to help us find a DJ who was amazing, before they helped us I was so worried about a DJ, so to have them be able to help, was truly amazing. We even at the end decided to upgrade the lighting, which was a great choice. Everything looked great and went so smoothly and we and our guest had a blast.

Its been two weeks since our wedding and we have not stopped getting compliments on our venue. It was beautiful, the food was great, service was fantastic. It may just be the stress of being an anxiety-ridden bride, I found the staff a little hard to work with in the planning phases.

I honestly thought the vision of an outdoor winter wedding was going to continue to just be a dream. So many people told us we were crazy and “good luck” because why on earth would we get married outside in the cold. It wasn’t until I brought this idea up to the Holly vault, and they immediately said “let’s do it!” The staff at this venue were out there until minutes before the ceremony blowing off snow from the chairs, putting salt down, and cranking the heat lamps. A huge shoutout to my coordinator Sam, and all the staff at this venue who worked their butts off to make this happen for us. Every single coordinator, server, bartender, and staff member at this venue worked so hard to make our day/night so special. We have recieved numerous comments on how impressed our guests were with the service provided and we just couldn’t be more thrilled. You will not regret going with The Holly Vault.

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.

Sunset Place was a stunning venue for our wedding. The huge property has a magical, fairy-like feel with beautiful outdoor spaces surrounded by nature. The staff was very friendly, straightforward in their communication, and responsive to all our needs. They stocked us up with plenty of firewood and then mostly left us be to enjoy the space. We especially appreciated that they had extra decor and supplies on hand that enhanced our decorations and helped our special day go smoothly. The venue was exceptionally priced given the lovely property, amenities, and excellent service. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect place to celebrate our marriage and make memories with our loved ones.

Got married here 5/11/24, the staff was very attentive, food was amazing, and the mansion was so beautiful. The 2 hours before the ceremony were chaotic since rain was on and off and we were unsure if an outdoor ceremony would happen or not. 10 minutes before the ceremony started staff ran out wiped all the chairs, and were able to make it happen! Received tons of compliments on the beauty of the venue, and how delicious the food was. 4/5 stars just because at the end of the night we were pushed out faster than our allowed 30minutes, the manager was literally locking doors as people were walking out of them, and we got a couple complaints about the bar staff. Besides that it was all amazing

Our planner recommended The Community House after I mentioned liking another place because it was, well, community centered! The Community House is a nonprofit that serves as a venue but also has programs for the community, such as the Early Childhood Center. Besides that, another appeal to us was how good the food sounded, and I am telling you, we were right. Everyone raved about the food! We had beef short rib, vegetarian pappardelle, and chicken confit. The latter was extra, but it was worth it and honestly one of the top selling points on the menu for us. I am so happy about this, because a lot of wedding food is…meh. The other pro for us was the layout. We really wanted a setup that encouraged people to dance, and this was perfect with the dance floor, stage, and tables surrounding it. This proved to be true, and if it didn't throughout the night, it was because people were tired or not into the songs! The only constructive feedback I have for TCH is on communication. It's OK if you don't respond ASAP, but when we are planning a wedding, and paying …a week is a little long. The communication did improve once we started talking to another employee, however, so maybe it just varies person to person. One request for TCH: if possible it would be great to have an electronic payment portal that does not charge fees. It was a little scary to send large sums of money using a check via USPS.

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!

The Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village play a very special role in the relationship of my husband and I; we both have fond childhood memories of the museum, we had our second date - and many others - there, and that is where he proposed. There was never another wedding venue that we considered, something crystalized after speaking with the events team. Donna and the rest of the events team at The Henry Ford helped us seamlessly navigate the process of preparing, planning, and celebrating our dream wedding ceremony and reception at The Henry Ford Museum. From the initial discussion and tour to the moment we left at the end of our reception, the events team helped ensure that everything was perfect and brought our vision to life. On the day of our wedding, the ceremony and reception venues were absolutely stunning, the food was beyond delicious, and many of our guests gushed about how amazing it was to get to explore the museum while celebrating with us. After the wedding, my husband and I decided that we were so happy that we plan to be lifetime members of The Henry Ford. We cannot thank The Henry Ford (and Donna in particular) enough for the part they played in our dream wedding celebration!
