YMCA Camp Pinewood was the perfect venue for our wedding. Mila, the venue coordinator, was very hands-on and always available to talk whenever we had questions or concerns. The campsite is absolutely beautiful and provides a stunning backdrop for the wedding. The lodge for the reception was of great quality and provided enough space for all of our guests.

Old Stonegate Farms was the venue for an October 2024 wedding that I had the privilege of designing flowers for. It was a rainy day so we ended up moving the ceremony inside, and put the arbor frame against the big doors. The bride was totally happy and it worked so well. This barn is stunning, I think I counted more than 10 chandeliers in the main seating area alone. It’s clean, nice bathrooms, and staff was very accommodating. I highly recommend! Hopefully, I will get to come back and do a dry wedding on a sunny day soon!

We absolutely loved having our wedding at the MSU Horticulture Gardens! We had our ceremony in the North Gardens outside, the cocktail hour in a covered tent right outside of the greenhouse, and the dinner and reception inside of the greenhouse. We had 118 guests and were able to do dinner and dancing inside of the greenhouse comfortably. Everything was set up promptly and was ready to go the day before. Working with the team was very collaborative and they provided lots of options while we were deciding what we wanted our layout to be. Amy was great to work with. They had lots of rental options such as chairs, tables, linens, bar, and backdrop curtain to elevate the space. There was a large walk-in cooler that we were given access to where we were able to keep our desserts and then store flowers/leftovers in over night after the wedding. During our tour we were a bit worried that the greenhouse would be very hot and that the fans would be loud, but they're able to cover the roof and we were able to rent standing fans that kept the venue cool without excessive noise and it totally fine. Everything came together beautifully on the day of and we are so happy with the day overall! We received so many compliments from guests and we would definitely recommend the North Gardens as a wedding venue.
