We had a fall wedding at Castle Farms. Was above and beyond what we could have hoped for. The grounds were spectacular and everything went as planned. Highly recommend!

I love everything about Shanahan’s Barn in Charlevoix, MI. Stunning views, outside ceremonies and that classic elegant barn look and feel.

Very professional And helpful. I look forward to working with them on my big day.

What a wonderful venue! Kim and Cheryl were very helpful and ready to respond to any needs or questions. We loved the garden area for the ceremony and the pavilion was an awesome fit for the reception. Rustic and beautiful at the same time. We definitely recommend!

My husband and I got married at the Orchard View Barn at Jacob’s Farm in early June, and we hosted our rehearsal dinner in the Centennial View barn the night before. Both events were everything we could have dreamt of and more!! The staff was so helpful, Marc’s food was unbelievable, Stephanie killed it on the cocktails and bar package, and Macy was wonderful to work with. We had to pivot a bit because of rain, and the whole team jumped in to readjust the plan and make sure everything went smoothly. Our friends and family have not stopped raving about how beautiful the farm is and what a wonderful night they had. We couldn’t have done it without our wonderful team of vendors and the staff at Jacob’s Farm! We can’t wait to come back every year to visit the farm, eat some apple cider donuts, and reminisce on the best day of our lives.

We were married at Black River Barn in South Haven on September 5, 2025, and it was absolutely perfect. The venue is stunning rustic, elegant, and beautifully maintained. The setting made our day feel so special, and our guests couldn’t stop complimenting how gorgeous it was. We couldn’t have imagined a better place to celebrate our wedding and would highly recommend Black River Barn to any couple.

Our Wedding Day was absolutely perfect at the Lumber Yard Event Center! We got married in October and the weather was absolutely perfect! The venue matched our rustic, fall theme and the space was stunning. We had our ceremony and reception both here. They have an indoor space separate from the reception area where we had our cocktail hour for guests- that could also be used for an indoor ceremony. The venue landscaping was beautifully kept and they even had mum flowers out for the fall time which looked beautiful for our ceremony. My husband and his groomsmen enjoyed the groomsmen suite! It was a new addition to the venue and they thought it was spacious and accommodating. The Something Borrowed room also had many options to choose from that helped make our wedding very aesthetically pleasing. We had 150 people for our wedding and it was a perfect fit. We would recommend this venue to anyone. Pictures attached are from Paradigm Photography.

He etre team is a well oiled, genuine team that makes the normally stressful wedding process so smooth and better than you could imagine.

I could not have asked for a more perfect day with this wedding venue. Rose and her staff went above and beyond for my day. I forgot a few things on joy big day and Rose made sure she found me replacements! The venue was incredibly beautiful, and provided an a breathtaking backdrop for my photos. Rose and her team also did all of my set up, and made my day 100% stress free. If I was able to give more than 5 stars I would!

Dear Sonshine Barn Family, I wanted to take a moment to thank you all for the amazing job you did on Megan and I’s wedding on 01 August 2020. We could not have been happier with the overall turnout. Sarah did a wonderful job with overall planning, décor, and vendor recommendations, and Amber did an impeccable job with planning, organization, and day of coordination. The amount of detail that Amber put forth on the day of the wedding, definitely impacted the overall success of the night. To keep my group of groomsmen in line and ensure everything went flawless was no easy task, but she was able to handle it perfectly. Between the two, they made the wedding of our dreams a reality. I was very skeptical of moving the reception from inside the barn, to splitting it inside and outside, but your team made it possible to eliminate any doubt that I may have had. The safety precautions that were implemented, as well as the dual reception areas, removed any doubt that our guests health were largely taken into consideration prior to allowing us to move forward with our ceremony. The setup inside the barn, and outside in the tent, could not have been more perfect. Even though our guests were seated outside for dinner, they were not isolated from the wedding festivities due to the added bench seating inside. Once our wedding moments were captured within the barn, the party commenced in the tent and under the beautiful sky. Overall, the way your team handled the whole COVID-19 situation, constant changes, and governors’ orders to make our day special was nothing short of exceptional. Once again, we would like to thank you for making our dreams come true. Best of luck on your future weddings, and hopefully everyone will have the same happily ever after story as we did.
