“The team at Buskirk-Chumley Theater provided excellent communication and consistency throughout the entire wedding planning process. Their friendly and professional staff were a huge help, walking me through every detail needed for the space.

“My husband and I are so happy that we decided to use Harris Glen as our venue! The venue itself is beautiful and everything we wanted. The site is covered in flowers and foliage and give off a very "European" feel. The bridal suite is cute and quaint and was perfect for "getting ready pictures". Elizabeth was very communicative and tried very hard to accommodate the vision that we had. I wanted the ceremony in a wooded area that Liz had not planned on using as a ceremony site, but she made it happen and it was beautiful and everything we wanted. Liz allowed us to come visit the venue several times prior to our wedding day to ensure we were comfortable and happy with the way our wedding day would go. The venue provides a "month of" wedding coordinator that is included in the price of the venue. The coordinator Tonya is awesome! When we met with her for the first time she swept our worries and anxieties away. Tonya and Elizabeth worked very hard to ensure a wonderful and perfect day. I appreciate them so much and our wedding day couldn't have been more beautiful.”

“We enjoyed working with the Calumet Club for our May 2026 wedding! I'd been to a wedding here years ago and assumed it was out of our price range – but after crunching numbers for other local venues (everything from church gyms to other fancy event venues in Lou), we decided the All Inclusive package was the best bang for our buck. It was shockingly similar to what we would have paid for turn a simple event hall into a formal wedding reception by the time you looked at rental, catering, bartending, alcohol, and decorating costs. With the bonus of only having to sign one contract! Some things to note: - you won't get access until 10am day-of. That's probably fine for most people, but since our ceremony was at a local church mid-afternoon, we had to start getting ready wayyyy earlier than than 10am. So we didn't use the bridal suites (which are beautiful) and they did give us a little bit of a discount for that - They have some simple centerpieces that are available free of charge. But even better, you can pay 100 for hurricane vase floating candle centerpieces – which they will set up and tear down for you. Since we DIY'd the decorating, that was a huuuuuge help! - the All Inclusive menu with Stumler's Catering is *not* the same as what Stumler's provided at the tasting event. Maybe we should have known that, but it was disappointing to get to our 2 week meeting and find out that half the foods we wanted were not included in the "All Inclusive" package. They gave us the correct list at the beginning, but we didn't pull that back out and went off the tasting menu when it was time to choose our foods :/ it ended up fine, everything that Stumler's makes is delicious, but just be aware of that difference - The included DJ is Harold Mahan Productions. We met Harold at a wedding 2 months before ours and he was fantastic! He wasn't the one to do our wedding, but had somebody from his team there. Tommy reached out to us the week of to run through our schedule and make sure we were on the same page. He did a great job throughout the night, and I've only heard good things about their whole team. - Bartending is also included. Can't give much of a review for that because somebody else (stumler's, dj, MOH, etc.) were always offering to get my drinks for me. Seems like everything was good with them though, and it was nice to not have to find our own. Overall, would definitely recommend! If you want a formal venue without an outrageous price tag, multiple contracts, or a lot of decorating work, this is the place to go!”
