Our wedding at Camp Newaygo was truly incredible. Nick and I have been married for three months now and still our guests are talking about how much fun they had at camp.
We rented the camp out for Memorial Day weekend. For Saturday, we created activity schedules for each of our guests then brought everybody together for a field day competition that concluded with a color powder war. The Italian buffet dinner Saturday was DELICIOUS and after dinner we had a beer pong tournament with karaoke in the main lodge. The young adults enjoyed drinks by the bonfire that evening. We kicked off Sunday with more camp activities before everybody had to start getting ready for the ceremony! Many of our guests stayed in the cabins and the lodge's dorm rooms right at camp. This made our weekend truly special as we got to spend so much time catching up with friends and family we don't see very often.
Call us crazy, but we didn't have a wedding planner..but we did have Christa, the events coordinator at Newaygo. I cannot commend her hard work, communication, and willingness to help enough. Nick and I probably sent Christa 10 questions a day during the months leading up to the wedding. She would respond often within 24 hours and always with enthusiasm. I have never worked with a more accommodating individual before, she was truly amazing. We planned our wedding from Utah where we both moved to from Michigan. During any trip I took back to Michigan, Christa would make sure she was available to meet me at the camp. When we arrived to camp the Friday of our wedding weekend there was some concern around being able to staff zip-lining all day for our guests...instead of closing the zip-line down for part of the day, Christa decided that she would work the activity - just another example of how amazing she was. And another example - our bartending service refused to pour champagne to our guests during dinner and expected everybody to get up and walk to the bar with their glasses.

Camp Newaygo is absolutely beautiful with the scenery so it was a perfect place to have my outdoor wedding. Also, the the wooden lodge was perfect for my reception and look gorgeous. They had a big bathroom to get ready in and a room for the guys to relax in til it was time for the ceremony to begin! I recommend Camp Newaygo for anyone looking for a place to have their wedding/reception.

Camp Newaygo, Christa, and Chris (I'm sure countless others) made our wedding day and night spectacular. People are still raving about the meal we had, and the children's buffet. Christa was never once put off by my husband's sometimes outlandish requests. We were able to have a great relaxed outdoor/indoor wedding. We had lawn games, popcorn, and were able to bring in our own cake/desert. We had some moments were responsiveness was a little delayed, but we would do it all over again, if we could. Christa was very flexible with our requests. My only suggestion -- make sure you know the times that you can be in and out of the venue (we had a great holiday weekend wedding... but it was right in the peak of summer camp season, so we had a tight time line to work through.
