We had the most perfect day and the venue was gorgeous. But there were a few hiccups. Be mindful that in the pictures you see there is up-lighting and chairs from an outside company. I did bring both of these things in. The guest rooms are beautiful and the staff at the hotel is very accommodating, friendly and easy to work with. As far as planning goes. If you are not organized, I would recommend a wedding planner. The coordinator is a nice woman but communication is lacking. I was suppose to have a conference room set up the morning of the wedding and no one at the hotel new what was going on, so we were calling staff and the coordinator at 7 am in the morning for the hair and makeup arrival. Make sure you have a list of all the things you want to see if they are available to you. I've never planned a large party so I didn't know what I didn't know until it was too late. I did not experience, but some of my guests waited over 45 minutes for valet and were told they could wait, drive around or park themselves "it wasn't the valet problem." They did not want to miss the ceremony so were forced to park at a higher cost in an off lot. ((I found this embarrassing to myself and the venue because I only told guests to valet)). The coordinator spoke to the Valet manager and I felt the response was very cold. This is a costly venue and the guests should be treated with more respect. I did also sign a contract for my Marriot Bonvoy numbers and the points are suppose to accumulate 10 days after your event, I have not received anything and had to reach out to the billing department for a final bill. These issues are minor compared to the fun we had, amazing food and great day overall. Just be on top of your game when you are planning.

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!

Their beautiful, spacious venue truly felt like a magical, perfect setting for our special day. They took care of setting up all the tables, chairs, and cutlery, and were so kind in checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. There is absolutely nothing I would change - the day was so beautiful, and I couldn't have done it without Dan and Christine's incredible service and attention to detail.

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.

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.

We had the wedding of our dreams here! The venue is stunning & the food was amazing. Lilly was great at helping us along every step of the way & answering my millions of emails in a timely fashion! I loved that they had the option for chivari chairs instead of just the banquet chairs. We were a little worried about the golfers going by during our ceremony but we didn’t see anyone! Our ceremony was at 4:30pm in September & it was nice & quiet for us! The one downside is they don’t have a designated “getting ready” suite, but we were able to book an Airbnb & hotel not too far from the venue & used that instead! It was nice not having to worry about catering or bar services being separate either. The dance floor was plenty big & I loved they it was right next to the bar to make it easy to drink & dance! We had about 125 guests & they all fit nice but I definitely wouldn’t have felt comfortable having many more as the tables went almost to the dance floor. Highly recommend this venue!

At Lake Lucy, you can fully design the wedding of your dreams. Anything is possible! It’s lovely spot for any event of any size, vibe, theme, celebration, etc. This place truly is a blank canvas to create your own unqiue vision into a reality. Mandi and Andy (the owners) are utterly amazing to work with… Open-minded, kind and professional, they truly supported us every step of the way, even more than I personally could have imagined. I cannot say enough good things… My husband, Brennan, and I were married at Lake Lucy on October 1st, 2022. Overall, it was an absolutely wonderful experience on every level, and our 225 guests were more than pleased with all aspects of the ceremony and reception, including the location, food, outdoor setups, etc. It was a beautiful celebration and the guests enjoyed everything about it, even more than expected. Due to unforseeable circumstances, Brennan and I were forced to pivot and make a lot of stressful, last-minute changes within the two weeks just prior to our wedding date. It was frustrating and overwhelming, to say the least. Mandi and Andy took us under their wing, troubleshooting our sudden issues, providing solutions to all of our setbacks and stress, while aleviating our nerves and personal worries. They helped to pick up the pieces and bring our vision to life in ways we could have never anticipated or wished for. We are forever grateful! Our wedding ceremony was held outdoors, next to the lake. We designed our own alter and held the ceremony in a gorgeous spot. Our reception immediately followed, with large seated tent and dance floor, an outdoor bar setup, yard games, live music, food prepared onsite (giant meat smoker), and more. As dusk hit and the evening set-in, there was a giant bonfire by the lake for guest to enjoy, with musicians roaming playing music, before switching over to a DJ to amp-up the party vibe. The property is massive, secure and secluded. A diret road leads you to a private gravel entrace. Our parking was set near our staging area, with special accomidations for handicapped guests. Mandi and Andy own a stunning, large “log-castle” home at the far end of the lake, but the property is open outside of that! The house is mostly removed from view and from access during a wedding, but they opened their basement to the bridal party for pre-wedding needs, giving my gal pals and I a badass place to get ready and relax prior to the event. The basement has a private walkout entrace, full kitchen/BAR, stone fireplace, bedrooms, huge full bathroom with private dressing room kitchen/BAR, movie thetre for watching sports/films, game room with pool table, etc. My bridesmaids and I felt comfortably pampered in this space as we dressed for the event, we sipped chanpaign and shared laughs as a stylist did our hair and makeup onsite. Photographers joined us there to document it too (Mandi included). They turned out to be some of my favorite photos! Once the bridal party was ready, we boarded the back of Andy’s decorated tractor, and he drove us around the lake, down to the wedding site. We arrived in-style, making a grand entrace to the party as guests were mingling before the ceremony. It was perfect, entertaining and super fun! Lake Lucy is natural oasis of nature tucked away in the woods, approx only 10 minutes from the highway, making it accessible to all travelers and guests. Mandi and Andy are outstading, accomidating hosts. Highly recommended! Thank you, Lake Lucy.

Their assertiveness in making sure every detail was perfect really contributed to making our special day go off without a hitch. We couldn't have asked for a better venue or staff to work with. Highly recommend The Grecian Center to any couple looking for a stunning and stress-free wedding experience.

My husband and I had our wedding ceremony and reception at the Lakes of Taylor Golf Club on June 24, 2023. We were thrilled with how friendly and accommodating all of the staff was during our wedding day. Our guests couldn't stop talking about how the food was delicious and how they loved talking to our bartenders. The venue also accommodated some of our guest's dietary restrictions and our bar menu. We planned our event with Debbie. She was helpful and organized. She couldn't make it on our special day, so Nancy filled in during our rehearsal and wedding day. Nancy was also very helpful, accommodating, and kind. The ceremony space was beautiful! It included an arch with white flowers and greenery draped over it. Our only complaint was how hot the reception hall was. Some of the guests said they were comfortable with the temperature. It was a very hot and humid day outside. The building is a little bit older so it was difficult to regulate the temperature. Overall, the Lakes of Taylor Golf Club was the perfect venue for our wedding. Our package included two entrees at the buffet, a wedding cake, table linens, and bar. The price was perfect for everything included in our package. The location is close to the airport and great for having a ceremony/reception at the same venue. We couldn't be happier with our choice!
