My husband and I got married here in 2022 and it was perfection! From planning to wedding day everything was so easy and stress free. The ceremony site is to die for and the reception space was large and spacious for all our family and friends. My girls and I loved getting ready in the Lodge and the whole party loved that they could stay right on site and spend the whole weekend there. I cannot recommend Olde Mill Venue enough!

We absolutely loved having our wedding at the Comfort Inn! From start to finish, the entire team took care of everything, from dinner and drinks to setup and cleanup, allowing us to truly enjoy our special day without worrying about the details. They went above and beyond by handling so many thoughtful touches we never would have considered ourselves, like bringing our gifts up to our room, preparing and cleaning our room, and keeping everything on schedule throughout the evening. Their attention to detail made the entire experience feel seamless and stress-free. The food and drinks were excellent, and so many of our guests commented on how much they enjoyed them. We also can't say enough great things about Elissa. She was incredibly easy to work with, organized, and attentive throughout the planning process. The way she set everything up looked beautiful, and she made sure the entire event ran smoothly from beginning to end. Another thing we loved was the property itself. There are so many beautiful spots around the hotel for wedding photos, giving us a variety of unique and memorable backdrops without ever having to leave the venue.

  • Starts at $3,900

The Red Barn, built in 1910 by Mike’s great-grandparents Ernest and Helen Faling, was inherited by Mike in the 1980s. He transformed it into a home where he raised his three daughters. On August 6, 2016, Mike’s oldest daughter held her wedding on the property, inspiring the creation of a wedding and lodging venue. Named "Little Flower Barn" (from "Fiorillo," meaning "Little Flower"), the venue honors the family heritage. In early 2019, Mike and his partner Sarah remodeled the Red Barn to accommodate 17 guests, constructed a reception barn for 300 guests, and added a pond-side amphitheater garden. Little Flower Barn offers a beautiful, functional backdrop for events.

They trusted us to coordinate our own event and gave us the space we needed to make it exactly what we wanted. The barn itself is stunning—clean, well-organized, and created such a comforting atmosphere for our guests. They even went out of their way to ensure our flowers were delivered exactly where they needed to be. We truly could not have asked for better people to host us, and we're so grateful for their generosity and kindness throughout the entire process.

Linens, cloth napkins, flatware, china and glassware are also included. The catering for all functions is provided by Royal Scot and they do a wonderful job.

I would highly recommend Thousand Oaks for future brides. The coordinators are very organized and attentive and the packages are clear in their descriptions. However, being part of a larger entity, there is no wiggle room for negotiation. For example, we wanted to substitute Riesling instead of moscato. We couldn’t make that switch, but they did offer the Riesling at a consumption rate. That is our only complaint. The food, the cleanliness and appearance of the venue, and the staff were all excellent.

We couldn't have asked for a better experience at Michigan State University Horticulture Gardens. Victoria was incredibly responsive and went above and beyond helping us with decorating, vendor coordination, and layout planning. The venue itself is stunning with the perfect balance of existing plants, so we didn't need to bring in many decorations except for the tables! As a surprise, they installed new string lights across the ceiling two weeks before our wedding, and they kept them up as a permanent addition to the space. They even unlocked the butterfly garden so we could get photos there. From start to finish, Victoria's attention to detail and willingness to make our day special made all the difference! We were afraid that the space would feel too warm having to stay at a regulated temperature for the plants, but it was very comfortable from start to finish! We even closed the doors at one point to keep it warmer. (Our wedding day was about 62 degrees and windy)
