We recently hosted our wedding ceremony and reception at Meyer's Castle, and consolidating everything in one space proved to be a very smart decision. We chose this venue specifically for its stunning on-site ceremony space, distinctive layout, and spectacular gardens. Throughout the planning process, communication was excellent, with prompt responses to all our questions. The pricing was transparent, and there were no surprises.

The team at St. Joseph County Parks was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. Their communication was excellent - they were quick to respond to all of our questions and provided thorough information throughout the planning process. The venues they offer are truly special, with a historic and natural aesthetic that felt perfect for our big day. Not only were the spaces themselves stunning, but the overall value was incredible.
