An absolute dream!

Eddie and I were married at Antique Wedding House on 03/19/2021. We started planning in October of 2020. We reached out to Michelle at the Antique Wedding House to get a quote and I knew right away she was the one. She was sooooo helpful with everything and did not hesitate to answer my millions of questions. I would be thinking about something on a random day, I would shoot her a text, and I would have the response in no time. I was trying to plan a wedding from across the country and she was with me step by step. I have mild anxiety, but had heightened anxiety thinking about walking down the aisle. I am sure I drove her nuts trying to think of a different path of getting to the alter without having to walk in front of everyone, but she never seemed annoyed with me, lol. She was beyond accommodating. I really do not have enough good words for her and her vendors. The bartender, the DJ, Martha from Floral Bliss, the photographer, they were all just spectacular. The food was also so delicious, everyone was raving about it. The cake was fresh, extremely good, and beautifully decorated. Michelle, I hope you read this. Thank you beyond words, for making our day absolutely perfect. .I could not have asked for a more beautiful wedding, and thank you for making our dreams come true. Lots of love from IL, Eddie and Amber.

The Perfect Venue

I got married at the Antique Wedding House on 11/7, and I truly couldn't have asked for a more perfect experience. Michele was absolutely wonderful-she made everything so easy and completely stress-free.

From start to finish, she ensured that every detail ran smoothly, and her calm, caring presence took away so much of my anxiety. She was always available to answer any questions I had, and it meant the world to me.

The photographer, Debbie Moon, did an outstanding job capturing our day. The photos are stunning and full of emotion. Jason, our DJ, was incredible-he kept the energy just right and made the reception so much fun.
And the food... absolutely immaculate! Our guests are still raving about it.

Everything was genuinely more than perfect on my perfect day. I'm endlessly grateful for the entire team at the Antique Wedding House for making our wedding unforgettable. Highly, highly recommend!

Small Beautiful And Fun Wedding

My husband and I recently got married at the Antique Wedding House on 3/24 and throughout the process Michele was so patient, flexible, and knowledgeable on how we wanted to host our intimate wedding. Everyone raved about the food and how beautiful everything was. It was definitely a night to remember! And their pricing is super affordable with every that it included. Thank you Michele! Xoxo

Intimate and perfect for us!

We had the duo package and paid for an additional guest. Michele was super responsive and helpful, answering all of my questions. Her staff was also just as great. Our ceremony and reception was everything we could have wanted. The food was pretty good from what I tasted (too busy running around), but the leftovers helped us enjoy our meal.

Such an amazing day!

Michele was the most perfect wedding organizer we could have ever hoped for! She was super quick to respond to every e-mail and made feel reassured throughout the entire planning process. The wedding ceremony and reception turned out beautifully, her staff did an amazing job on our decorations, and the food was delicious. We went with the Victorian wedding package, and it was absolutely perfect. I would definitely recommend this venue and Michele to anyone looking for a beautiful wedding that won't break the bank.

The Antique Wedding House was amazing!

We had our wedding last week at the Antique Wedding House. When I contacted Michele she was able to make an appointment for us right away. Tyson showed us around and answered all of the questions we had at the time. We had our ceremony 6 days later. They took care of everything and were very quick with their responses to all of the questions that came up. We decided on just a ceremony with a small group of our friends and family. It was unbelievably stress free and the house is beautiful. Our photographer Mattie was very kind and personable. She included all of our guests in our photos and also included all of the ideas we had. She had over 200 photos and we received them within 48 hours. They exceeded our expectations in every way. Thank you for making our ceremony so amazing.

Exceeded our expectations!

I don't think there are enough words to explain how wonderful the Antique Wedding House is. Not only is it an amazingly unique venue, but Michele is a peach to work with. She is a pro at making sure your day is exactly how it should be; beautiful, affordable, and stress free. We received so many compliments from our guests about the venue, the officiant, the food, photographer, flowers, and the cake; all of which was provided by the Antique Wedding House. Do yourself a favor and reach out to Michele, you will not regret it!

Michele, Bill and I thank you and your team so much. We couldn't have been happier with our big day!
