From rehearsal to wedding day the amazing staff at Bay Pointe Inn just killed it. As a wedding vendor myself they are definitely going on my referral list for all of my clients. The food was absolutely amazing - all of my guests are calling me to rave about it! Madison and her team blew Josh and I away - especially the accommodations for our kiddos! Cannot recommend them enough.

I had my wedding ceremony outdoors at Royal Scot Golf Course in October of 2019 and the scenery was beautiful. I also had my wedding reception indoors in Royal Scot’s North Room which is located upstairs and holds approximately 125 people. The North Room was very spacious and even included a dance floor and an outdoor balcony. All rooms at Royal Scot have full banquet staff which includes servers, bartenders, and chefs. Linens, cloth napkins, flatware, china and glassware are also included. The catering for all functions is provided by Royal Scot and they do a wonderful job. My guests were raving about the food; it was truly delicious. Royal Scot staff was extremely attentive and communicated well throughout the planning process and during the event itself. Royal Scot staff met all my expectations and so much more. Royal Scot is a wonderful venue and the event pricing is very reasonable. I highly recommend this venue.

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)
