“Meyer’s Castle is such a hidden gem—you’d never expect to find a place like this in the Midwest! I’ve had the chance to shoot two weddings here, and both times were such a dream. The venue itself is stunning and feels like a little escape from the everyday. But what really makes it stand out is the team. The staff is always so kind and helpful, especially Kate—not just with the couples, but with us vendors too, which honestly makes the day run so much smoother. I can’t wait for the next time I get to come back and create more magic within those castle walls. Forever a fan of this place.”

“From our first conversation with January and Tripp, we knew Aerie Commons was the right choice for our bridal shower and rehearsal lunch venue. They stayed on top of every detail throughout the planning process and answered our questions quickly and thoughtfully which made planning so much easier. The space itself is stunning and welcoming, with plenty of room for our guests to move around comfortably. The food was fabulous and the service was seamless from start to finish. They also supplied and serviced the grazing table and wedding cake at the wedding ceremony. (The Bride's favorite part). We cannot recommend January, Tripp, and the entire Aerie Commons team enough—they truly made all our celebrations fabulous.”
