One of the best decisions we made

The League was the perfect venue for my husband and I. We both have connections to the university and we wanted to show our family and friends how special Ann Arbor is to us. From start to finish the team at The League was incredible to work with. They kept in close contact with our planner, answered all of our questions, offered ideas based on what we were looking for, and helped us feel comfortable along the way. We walked through multiple scenarios (since we had a rain plan) which turned out to be a lifesaver. If our guests did not know we intended to get married outside, they never would have known we were using our back up because things were just so smooth the whole way. The food was amazing and many guests said it was the best they ever had. Lindsay was the absolute best and everyone on site worked hard to make our day perfect.

Beautiful Venue!

We had a wonderful wedding weekend for our daughter and new son-in-law at the Michigan League on a beautiful Spring weekend in May 2023. Lauren Yanakeff worked with us for a year planning and sharing her knowledge and experience. Our daughter grew up in Ann Arbor and attended the University of Michigan; she was so excited to welcome our guests to a home-town Ann Arbor wedding. The ceremony was at St. Mary’s, a short walk from the League. Lauren arranged for easy parking at the Fletcher lot. At the League, the weather allowed for a Cocktail Party in the Garden (Vandenberg room was backup). We had dinner and dancing in the stunning ballroom. The food was excellent – short ribs, sea bass, pesto ravioli (vegetarian), and portobello mushroom (vegan). We opted for the late-night ‘State fair’ hotdog/chips snack. Lauren coordinated bar and wine options with the League’s catering team. It all went smoothly – costs were communicated clearly and there were no surprises. The wedding party and some guests spent the night on the 4th floor Inn, a very convenient and comfortable spot. Other guests stayed at the Graduate and Bell Tower. The hotels and venues were all withing walking distance, which was wonderful! The next morning, we had ‘Brunch with the Newlyweds’ in the Michigan room. The breakfast food, coffee, bagels, and danishes were excellent and appreciated by our out-of-town guests.
Thank you, Lauren and The League staff for a beautiful wedding!

Lindsay and her team go above and beyond!!

We got married here on June 3rd. Lindsay and her team are phenomenal! Everything went so smoothly and the day was just so perfect. My guests kept commenting how amazing the food was. Not to mention that throughout the planning process, Lindsay has been nothing but sweet, supportive, and accommodating. They respond so fast and they truly go above and beyond!
