About this venue
Now booking for 2027! Petite Acres is a French countryside-inspired wedding venue set on 4.25 acres in the heart of New Buffalo, MI. Tucked in a charming vacation town, it offers the feel of a destination wedding, without the travel. The gem of the property is Château Aster, our signature stone-and-brick venue, designed to evoke the elegance of a timeless French manor. Inside, you’ll find soaring ceilings, chandeliers, and arched windows that open to the Great Lawn, gardens, and walking paths — creating seamless indoor-outdoor flow. Couples and guests enjoy a full weekend experience with 12 private guest homes on-site. Maison Foxglove, a four-bedroom residence beside the lawn, is ideal for welcome drinks, getting ready, or a morning-after brunch. Amenities like a wellness studio, sauna, firepit, and immersive landscaping make Petite Acres a place to gather and celebrate. We host a limited number of weddings each season so every couple receives our full attention and care.

Great experience with Petite
Working with Petite Acres has been a seamless experience from start to finish. The team communicates clearly and promptly, making it effortless to coordinate all the details for our events. Their venue is absolutely stunning with newly renovated spaces that feel open and elegant, giving couples plenty of room to bring their vision to life. The value we've received is exceptional considering the quality of what they offer. We can't wait to partner with them again this year and recommend them to any couple looking for a top-tier wedding destination.

Every detail from the bedding to the suite contents and furniture is so very well thought out. Wouldn't change a thing. We were there for our daughter's wedding and the accommodations and service were top notch! Thank you for helping make the event as magical as we imagined it could be! We will be looking for opportunities to return.

I am the Director of Client Relations & Communications with Bella Donna Studios (Chicago/SW Michigan), a wedding photo/video company. We have had the pleasure of capturing 2 weddings at Petite Acres since they opened, with more to come! We were totally blown away by the grounds, the scenery, the atmosphere, the people, the teamwork, and everything else you can imagine! What a gorgeous place to host any event, but how incredible to host a wedding here! Looking forward to working alongside the team again in the future! Cheers to your opening and future success!
Petite Acres•Sep 25, 2026Gianna, thank you so much! We’ve absolutely loved having the Bella Donna team at Petite Acres and getting to work together for these first few weddings. Your team is always such a pleasure to have on property, and we’re so excited to have more celebrations together ahead. Thank you for being such a wonderful partner and for the kind words!

Petite Acre is such a beautiful addition to New Buffalo! The location is incredible and just minutes from the shores of Lake Michigan with the ability to stay for the weekend makes it so much more than just a wedding venue. Couples can truly turn their wedding into an entire weekend of celebrating with their closest friends and family. The owners Jeana and Justin are exceptional, with incredible attention to detail and a genuine commitment to creating an amazing experience for their couples and guests. From the setting to the service, everything feels thoughtful and elevated. I highly recommend Petite Acre to anyone looking for a unique and memorable wedding venue in New Buffalo!
