Castle Farms was the venue of our dreams! The castles and gardens are gorgeous to say the least. It was nice to have all of our wedding party and family photos done right on the site. Everyone ranted and raved about how beautiful the venue was and how friendly the staff were. Our main coordinator, Kenzie, and our assistant coordinator, Alexandria were very communicative, professional, and kind. They made sure the entire day went perfectly and that my husband and I did not have to worry about a single thing. I highly recommend having your wedding at Castle Farms!

Exactly what you would expect
Beautiful venue with a professional staff.
Everything went perfectly and received many compliments from guests regarding the venue. Only drawback is that due to the location being far from any major cities, vendor options a bit limited.

Best Decision Ever!
Look no further than Castle Farms! They are truly the best. We received so many compliments from our guests about the venue itself, it's staff, and how truly beautiful the Castle grounds are. Our venue coordinator, Rebekah, was on it from day 1. She helped make the entire day run smooth. She was there all night to make sure no issues occurred! We can't thank Rebekah and the team enough for making our day so special. Thanks so much, team!

Our Dream Wedding at Castle Farms
We had the most beautiful fairytale wedding at Castle Farms. It is a dream venue. Angela our venue coordinator was absolutely amazing to work with! Planning our wedding during Covid was difficult and stressful at times, but Castle Farms was very accommodating. Angela had some great suggestions when changing plans, she made sure our wedding day went smoothly, and helped us plan down to the small details. I would highly recommend Castle Farms to any couple, it is an absolutely beautiful venue in any season!
Castle Farms's reply:
Thank you so much Krystal!! I can’t thank you and Nolan enough for being so understanding throughout the whole process. I am sure it wasn’t how you originally pictured your wedding day, but we were so grateful that we were able to still host such a special day for the both of you. It brought joy to me just to see how beautiful the day turned out for such a deserving couple as yourselves. Congratulations on your marriage! I wish you two the best! -Angela

A True Fairytale
I always dreamed of having a fairytale wedding, and just so happened to stumble across Castle Farms when I got engaged. It was the one and only venue I toured because as soon as I step foot in the Knight’s Castle, I knew that’s were I was going to have my first dance with my husband. The grounds are beautiful, each room is lovely and classy, and it really is like stepping into a different time.
I was a pandemic bride, and I am so thankful I chose Castle Farms because they were always on my side. Rebecca gave us so many updates, and were so empathetic and helpful with any and all questions.
Angela, my day-of coordinator was an absolute dream. She was so helpful, sweet, calm, and really was a shining part of the day. Anything I needed help with she was willing to do and successfully took so much weight off my shoulders.
Not only is Castle Farms a beautiful venue, but it’s wonderfully run with a caring team who ensure your day is as beautiful as possible. I cannot thank the team of Castle Farms enough for making my day truly magical.
Castle Farms's reply:
Thank you SO much Tessa!! I am beyond grateful that we were able to give you and Jeremy the wedding that you hoped for from the moment you saw the Knight’s Castle! While things weren’t exactly as you pictured, you both were so kind, genuine, and understanding through everything, that we were so glad we could be a part of such a special day for such a deserving couple. I wish you both the best and hope you have a wonderful Christmas and New Year! -Angela

Amazing Wedding Experience
My wife and I chose Castle Farms after a weekend of touring venues in northern Michigan. We quickly fell in love with the beauty of the grounds and the friendliness of the staff. Rebekah and Natalie helped us coordinate our special day and we couldnt say enough good things about their help and enthusiasm in ensuring our day went as planned. I would 100% recommend Castle Farms to anyone looking for a venue in Norther Michigan.
Castle Farms's reply:
Thank you SO much for the kind words! You are such a sweet couple and I loved being able to help make your day special. All the details you had put into each part of the wedding such as the world theme and incorporating it with a wonderful picture of the both of you with a suitcase holder on each table. It really shows that you both are together through the adventure! -Natalie

Our Dream Wedding!
The grounds of Castle Farms are breathtaking! It was a dream! Guests were in awe and the staff was outstanding. Natalie B. was our venue coordinator and she was so sweet! With Covid, Castle Farms was so flexible to changes we had to make. From start to finish (and all the in between) it was perfect! And talk about a picturesque location!
Castle Farms's reply:
Thank you so much for the kind words! The love that you share for each other is so true and selfless. Also, the excitement you both had even throughout this time was unforgettable. I am so happy I was able to be a part of your special day and making it the best it could be. I wish you nothing but the best for your marriage! – Natalie

Perfection
The venue coordinators are absolutely phenomenal. When I had questions they emailed back within the hour, they verified everything with me every step of the way, and explained everything thoroughly (except the added cleanup cost for the pine needles on the boughs we had brought in; had I known, I would have purchased fake instead of real). They refunded some money for things I had thought I would need and didn’t, and worked well to coordinate with my other vendors.
Castle Farms's reply:
Samantha, thank you so much for the review and for sharing those beautiful photos from your special day. It was wonderful working with you on your wedding last December. I will never forget the amazing cake you made and decorated; you are so talented! Your room was also beautiful with the real pine; after discovering its difficulty to clean up, we began to inform couples there may be an extra cleaning fee or that they can bring in faux pine greenery. Happy belated Anniversary and cheers to many more years of marriage! -Brittany

Dreams do come true
Castle farms is one of the most beautiful venues I have ever seen. They worked with us through the whole two years of planning. Even helped my now husband purpose to me. We were even able to split our ceremony and reception up into two rooms so I could have the window in the kings great hall open during our reception. They gave us a day of coordinator - Angela and our day went so smooth because of her. It really was such a magical day. They do everything they can to make your dreams come true!
Castle Farms's reply:
Cynthia, you made such a beautiful bride and it was so special to see the love that you and Eric share. I especially enjoyed all your décor references to Mary Poppins and yours and Eric’s own story behind it. We wish you and Eric a lifetime of happiness! -Angela

Just the most beautiful place in the world to get married! Not to mention the personal service from every staff member employed there. Our venue coordinator, Angela, was only a call or e-mail away. She was so very attentive, answered every question, and during our big day had everything taken care of before we asked. She made our day go off without a hitch and make it the very best!!!

Castle Farms was the perfect spot for us. We just had our ceremony there and it was perfect. My event coordinator was amazing. Rehearsal the day before was a breeze and our wedding was a piece of cake. She told us where to go, how to stand, where to look and when to go. All I had to do was show up and everything else was taken care of. Everything was wonderful!

My husband and I got married on May 18, 2018 at Castle Farms. We were married in the Queen's Courtyard and then we had our reception in the East Garden Room. The Queen's Courtyard is absolutely beautiful, and seats a ton of people. Afterwards, we took pictures around different parts of Castle Farms - the entire place is incredible and there are tons of spots to take pictures. I love our wedding pictures SO much. After that, we had our reception in the East Garden Room which was recently renovated. Again, SO beautiful. Overall, our experience with Castle Farms was incredible. We worked closely with Autumn, and she helped us navigate through the wedding planning even from far away as my husband and I were still finishing college in Ohio. Everyone was super kind, and was quick to keep the bride and groom the main priority. On the day of our wedding, Autumn was very organized and checked in on us while getting ready. I probably don't know half of the things that she did behind the scenes to make this day happen. But it was so nice to trust her and know that she was taking care of those small details. Our day was so special, and I can't express how thankful we are to Castle Farms for everything. I would recommend this venue to anyone who is looking for a beautiful place to get married and wanting kind, organized, and lovely wedding planners to work with. They are incredible!

This venue truly made my fairy tale wedding. Originally, we had wanted to go to London and get married, but after realizing this wasn't realistic, we decided to do something in Michigan. My (now) husband loves Northern Michigan and has been coming Up North his entire life and when I saw this venue in "The Knot," I fell in love. This venue is the best representation of both of us - my husband's love of Up North and our shared love of London. Our coordinator was Matthew, and I loved him! He was on top of everything for our rehearsal and our wedding. Our wedding was truly perfect and everything I could've asked for here.

Our daughter was married in the Knights Castle & court yard 5/19/18. Our coordinator Autumn Tall was the most amazing professional!! She has the heart of gold, friendliest, talented,I could go on forever. She made sure every little detail was perfect and took care of everything. Our families Royal Wedding was a fairytale come true. Autumn is a great asset to the Castle staff and we are so blessed to of had her be our coordinator. Her assistant Angela also did a fantastic job of completing our evening. Our catering company Matter of Taste was outstanding!!! Their food is out of the world along with their service & staff. Our DJ service Raush Entertainment top notch the very best. We used Mackinaw Shuttle service they are very professional their business communication is the best. Top Tier Cakery best tasting cake ever not a bite leftover. Most beautiful flowers and the best service was Elk Lake Floral outstanding!! They even did the flower arrangement for the cake better then perfect. Our family highly recommends the Castle Farms wedding venue and all of these professionals that we used. We especially think Autumn Tall is the very best and that your family will be blessed to have her involved in your wedding.
Castle Farms's reply:
Thank you for your kind words Janet! I had such an amazing time working with you and loved that you truly treated me like part of the family. I am so honored to have been a part of your day and I am glad that Angela was able to pick up right where I left off! Thank you again for sharing your day with us.
P.s. our staff is still talking about how awesome and adorable the power wheels idea was!
Sincerely,
Autumn

My fiance and I were interested in having a wedding in Northern Michigan in the fall so that our family and friends could experience the most beautiful season while traveling up north for our wedding! We found & fell in love with Castle Farms because of it's unique history, beautiful location just outside of downtown Charlevoix, and flexibility in event space and offerings. It fit our theme of a Game of Thrones/ Middle Earth wedding perfectly and upon our first site visit we began getting so excited for our October wedding this past year. We chose to go with the Knight's Castle, which has a beautiful stone interior, courtyard, and lots of space. Their additional rental options like castle chairs, picnic tables, and yard games are such a great way to add to your event day space!
Pros: The only castle venue in Northern Michigan, this place is unique and will be so special for your wedding and your guests. There are several people on staff to ensure that all of your emails, phone calls, and requests are met in a really timely fashion and there are multiple people to help you out. Their marketing materials including brochures, wedding packets, and website are very organized so you know exactly what you are getting and what is offered in your wedding package. Staff is accommodating and willing to work with you at every turn. Despite having probably hundreds of weddings a year, you will be treated with personal attention and communication is consistent from beginning to end.
Cons: In season weddings at this venue are pricey and in-line with other Northern Michigan venues, but this can be made affordable if you go with an off-season or weekday wedding which we found worked great for us. You will be communicating with several people throughout your wedding planning, including venue coordinators, event coordinators, venue specialists, etc. which can be confusing and the person you meet on the date you book your event might not be your day of coordinator.

Castle farms was an excellent location for our fall wedding. They are great to work with and make your day much less stressful by having a wedding coordinator to work with to answer all your questions throughout the process and help coordinate the day. Castle farms also helps with finding vendors if you need it. We would highly recommend them!

We recently had our wedding here. All we have to say is it was amazing. The location is beautiful. The staff was amazing and extremely helpful with all aspects from pre planning to the actual day. Can’t speak enough about how great the staff and the location was. It was like a fairytale come true for my wife.

My husband and I are so happy we chose Castle Farms as our wedding venue! We were impressed by the property the moment we saw it. And our guests absolutely loved it too. Even our guests from Ireland were in awe of the Castle, and they know a thing or two about castles!. We were looking for a place that was naturally beautiful- where minimal decorations would be needed and there would be plenty of great photo opportunities. Well, Castle Farms fits that criteria in every way. We had our ceremony in the Queen's Courtyard and reception in the King's Great Hall (for the king's Great Hall I highly recommend renting the King and Queen's throne chairs). The staff is very helpful and we enjoyed working with our wedding coordinator, MaryAnn. She made sure everything ran smoothly and was quick to respond or address any questions we had. Showing up on the big day and knowing everything was coordinated and would be taken care of was amazing.

We had our wedding August 19th and honestly we couldn't have asked for a better day. Everything was perfect! We got numerous compliments about how incredibly beautiful the location was! The whole night went off without a hitch, it was more than perfect! The staff was helpful and kind every step of the way, from the moment we book until the moment we left after our special day. I will continue to go to Castle Farms for years to come. The wedding was everything I could have dreamt of and the grounds are so beautiful I can't wait to go back and explore some more.

Castle Farms is a dream location. At first, we were a little worried about having a "destination wedding" because we weren't sure if our families from the east & west side of the state would be able to make it. I am so glad we trusted our gut and booked the King's Great Hall! Our turnout was amazing and it was such a beautiful venue. The wedding coordinators were flexible, helpful, and made sure if we had everything we needed to make the day perfect. MaryAnn was super sweet and really made us feel like she cared about our day. The customer care and location alone are worth every penny. I would recommend this place to anyone. It definitely is an unforgettable place. We only wish we could live the day again and again! Thank you, Castle Farms for making our wedding so special.

One of the best decisions we made was to have our wedding at Castle Farms. We live about 4 hours away, so the majority of the planning was done via Internet/phone. Castle Farms made everything super easy - cost of rental includes Day of Coordinator, chairs/tables/linens, centerpieces, and more! Our Day of Coordinator made sure everything ran on time and smoothly, I did not have to worry about a single thing on our wedding day, so I was able to be present and enjoy the day that I have spent so much time planning. We rented colored napkins from Castle Farms, but there was a mix up and the napkins did not arrive in time, our Day of Coordinator resolved the issue on her own, she ordered napkins from another company and drove to pick them up! She did all this without letting me know, AND credited me for the cost of napkin rentals. I also highly recommend hiring your Day of Coordinator to decorate for you- the rate is super affordable, and takes so much stress off of you on your wedding day. I could rave on and on about Castle Farms, but in short, I highly recommend this venue, it is BEAUTIFUL (your pictures and videos will turn out AMAZING), their staff is SO nice, capable, and helpful, and Charlevoix is such a beautiful city to say your “I do” in. You won’t regret it :)

We had our wedding at Castle Farms in the Kings Great Hall on April 28!! This place is absolutely amazing!! I fell in love on my very first visit and put a deposit down right then! They book up fast so the sooner you go and book, the better chances you'll get the date you want. All of the coordinators that helped with rehearsal and the day of were so amazing! The vendors up there all love working with castle farms, so everything was easy to book and went super smooth. Our guests could not get over how beautiful this place is. It was seriously a magical day!! Thanks Castle Farms for making our dream wedding a reality!!!

We had a wonderful experience with Castle Farms. We got married a month ago today on August 26 in the Knight's Castle and Courtyard. I had such a stress free day and I know a big part of it was knowing that Castle Farms would take care of everything. Plus their list of preferred venders made planning a cinch. I've had so many of my guests tell me our wedding was the funnest, most beautiful wedding they've been too and that our venue was amazing, so thank you Castle Farms for an amazing, stress-free day!

Castle Farms was a gorgeous venue that did not disappoint! Our guests remarked on the beauty of the grounds and both of our wedding locations. We had our ceremony in the Queen's Courtyard and our reception in the East Garden Room. We were very pleased with how everything turned out - it was all picture perfect, like the fairytale we had imagined. Brittany was great to work with, very responsive, and helped put us at ease on our wedding day.

Our wedding was a complete fairy tale. From the beautiful grounds to the professional staff, we can not say things to encapsulate how wonderful this venue is. We visited Castle Farms for the first time in January 2014 and even in the snow and cold, we fell in love with the venue immediately. Because we booked our date the same day we toured, we received a nice discount which was very helpful. Our ceremony was in the Queen's Courtyard followed by a reception in the King's Great Hall. Although we had to plan a wedding from afar, the process was easy because of the wonderful staff, our coordinator Katelyn, and the fabulous preferred vendors who all work with the Castle almost on a weekly basis. All around, we are just thrilled with how everything turned out and could not have asked for a more beautiful wedding. This place is affordable for what you receive and you will not be disappointed. Make this the wedding of your dreams and book Castle Farms before it's too late.
Castle Farms's reply:
Matt- Thank you so much! We are so happy that your wedding was like a fairy tale. Our goal is to make wedding planning easy by providing the preferred vendor list and attentive staff, so we're thrilled to hear that it was a breeze for you! It's no surprise that Katelyn was a huge asset to your planning- she's a rock star at what she does. We wish you every happiness in your marriage!

I just can't say enough about the beauty and professionalism of this venue. The staff was so wonderful and easy to work with. They made sure that every detail was attended to. We planned my daughter's wedding from out of state and I never once worried about how it would come together. Our event coordinator, Brittany, was an absolute gem! She was so easy going and took care of everything. This venue is so gorgeous - you hardly need your own decor - the backdrop of the castle and all the landscaping is breathtaking. Looks like something out of a magazine. We could not have asked for a better experience and the most important thing is that the bride and groom were extremely pleased with the outcome and everyone had a fabulous time!!! If you are looking for the perfect up-north wedding venue, then Castle Farms is for you.
Castle Farms's reply:
Nancy, thank you so much for your kind review! We are so happy that the couple was pleased with their wedding day. That is the best compliment that we can receive. Please pass on our best wishes to the happy couple!

My wedding at Castle Farms was just amazing - staff are very organized, and overall it's just such a lovely place.
Sure it's a tad bit more pricey right up front, BUT we did some basic math and the fact that they allow you to get your own vendors for everything else actually makes it cost about the same as other places that force you to go with their catering, etc...

Castle farms is a beautiful venue and the staff is extremely accommodating. They had a answer to all of my questions, and they tried to work out everything that I came across. Very sad they are 2 hours away and will not be able to have my reception there anymore.
Castle Farms's reply:
Thank you for sharing your thoughts about our beautiful historic Castle Farms, one of Michigan’s premier wedding venues. Many couples choose the Castle specifically because of their desire to have a destination wedding. We’re sorry to hear that the geographical location ultimately did not prove favorable to your wedding timetable. We wish you every future happiness in your life together as husband and wife.

By far one of the best vendors you could ask for. Castle Farms staff was accommodating, friendly, and kept open communication through out the whole wedding process. Our wedding cordinator answered our millions of emails promptly and was extremely helpful the day of the wedding. It is obvious that all staff knows exactly what they are doing to make each bride feel like they are a princess for the day and make the planning process run as smooth as possible.

Castle Farms made our wedding dreams a reality!!! They are extremely organized and made it very easy to choose between local vendors for our photographer, DJ, caterer etc. The staff are all very professional and helpful. I was a little concerned about planning a destination wedding so far away from home, but they made sure the process was easy and as stress free as possible for us. We would highly recommend Castle Farms to anyone looking for a destination castle wedding. There are several castles in the US that host weddings, but Castle Farms is by far one of the most beautiful. And the town of Charkevoix is a really cute and relaxing place to spend time at before and after the wedding.

My husband and I both grew up in Charlevoix and spent many summer nights at the Castle watching concerts in the 80's and 90's. It was so special for the both of us to get married here. Everything about our day was truly magical! We got married in the Knight's Courtyard and the ceremony was absolutely beautiful! Sarah was an amazing coordinator and made sure that everything ran seamlessly. Our reception was in the Knight's Castle and I literally cried when I walked into the room! It was so elegant, majestic and breathtaking. If you are going to get married in Northern Michigan, Castle Farms is the only place to do it!
Castle Farms's reply:
We love hearing from our Castle couples! Charlevoix is such a beautiful area, and the Castle has been an integral part of the city’s history for nearly 100 years (including the concert era). We’re so happy you were able to bring your hometown and the Castle together for the perfect wedding celebration. Congratulations and best wishes for a long and happy life together.

Let me begin by first saying how beautiful Castle Farms is. It is spectacular and I felt like a princess. My husband and I wanted a small, intimate ceremony and the staff at Castle Farms was able accommodate that request. Even though we were not having a large ceremony and we were not having it catered we were never made to feel as though we were any less important as a couple who was doing just that. The staff is incredible and I do not have enough positive things to say about them. Castle Farms is a class act & they make your fairy tale wedding dream come true. I look forward to returning to celebrate many years of happiness and revel in the magnificent beauty.

My wife Sarah and I got married here in back in late December. The staff was very helpful especially since I was in Mississippi at the time and my wife was in Ohio. They had lots of different options and services, but we chose to just rent the venue for our small wedding. Their property is very beautiful. It really made our wedding, although small, very nice. The wedding photos we got around the property are amazing. I would definitely recommend castle farms and if you are looking for a great photographer, I recommend Meg Paxton of Paxton Photography, she is amazing.
Castle Farms's reply:

My husband and I held our reception at Castle Farms in the Knight's Castle and it could not have been more perfect! Our wedding coordinator Brittany was very helpful leading up to our big day and day of the reception! They took care of things before I even had to ask and the entire staff was friendly and willing to go out of their way to make our day special. This allowed me to enjoy my reception and not stress out over the little details because I knew they were being taken care of. We received so many compliments about the beautiful venue. I would highly recommend Castle Farms to other couples looking for a venue in Northern Michigan!
Castle Farms's reply:
Congratulations on your recent marriage. We love hearing from our Castle couples, and we’re pleased to hear that Brittany and our staff met your expectations and more, up to and including on your wedding day.

We just recently were married at Castle Farms and had our ceremony in the Kings Indoor Chapel, and our reception in Kings Great Hall. Everything turned out absolutely beautiful and I am so grateful for all the help the staff provided that night, particularly from our wedding coordinator, Jenna. Although we live five hours away, you never would have known from all the questions she answered and how quickly she did. I would high recommend this venue to everyone. Our catering company, Grey Gables, provided such high quality, delicious food, that all of our guests enjoyed and gushed about. Reverend Jonathan Mays married us, and he was so pleasant and fun, we loved speaking with him!

I beautiful venue for a wedding. They provided a wedding coordinator to help us from the pre-planning throughout the entire wedding day. Sarah was our wedding coordinator, she was awesome! We received nothing but high praises from our guests. The Queen's Tavern was exquisite. We were married outside in the Queen's Courtyard, and had our wedding recorded. The sound of the water fountain was very noticeable in the recording. It might be a good idea to have the fountain temporarily turned off during your ceremony.
Castle Farms's reply:
Congratulations on your recent wedding at Castle Farms. We’re so pleased to hear that everything was as elegant and exquisite as you hoped it would be. The soaring stone towers and French architectural features found in the Queen’s Courtyard make it a stunning site for ceremonies. The Courtyard’s fountain, a dramatic centerpiece that lends to the beauty of the location, is part of an artesian well which flows continuously and is impossible to turn off. Congratulations again! Our best wishes for a long and happy life together.

Castle Farms was truly our fairy tale come true. We had a flawless wedding and reception thanks to Jenna's meticulous attention to every detail. The entire day was like spending time in a European castle. The entire team worked with us to make sure we had all of our questions answered, needs met, and problems solved. We live over 300 miles from the area and didn't see the castle until the day before our wedding. It exceeded any and all expectations we had. Our wedding coordinator was in constant contact with us thorughout the duration of our planning process. Whenever I emailed with a question, I received a response within hours. The grounds and building were beautiful and the perfect setting for anyone to begin their fairy tale.
Castle Farms's reply:
Congratulations on your recent marriage! We’re happy to hear that your special day was as elegant, romantic and magical as you hoped it would be. The Castle was built in 1918, and the French Renaissance architectural features provide a stunning backdrop for couples beginning their married life together. Your praise for Jenna and our staff is very much appreciated. We'll be sure to pass your comments along. Best wishes for a long and happy life together.

Cinderella wedding come alive. What a wonderful location/venue. My daughter wanted a destination wedding that was still doable for guests to come to the wedding. This fit the bill marvelously. The location in Charlevoix was so beautiful in October with the color changes. The people in Charlevoix only added to the charm of this location.
Sarah, our wedding coordinator was extremely helpful and was excellent at communicating with me. Being 5 hrs. away and a detail person, I wanted every detail ironed out before walking into the Knight's Castle. The Knight's Castle was so beautiful, you really don't need a lot of extra decorations as the Castle does all that with their lighting, linens and the Castle itself. My daughter's motto was - don't take away from the Castle mom.
Everything we needed Sarah was right there to get us with a smile on her face. They never left us alone but you never knew they were there.
This is truly the Disneyworld of all venues and SERVICE is what you pay for.
Castle Farms's reply:
Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts about your daughter’s recent wedding at Castle Farms. We’re pleased to hear that everything was perfect. Seeing to the details of a destination wedding can be daunting, but Sarah excels in providing world class customer service to all the couples she works with. It was our pleasure to host your family and guests. Please give your daughter and her husband our best wishes!

If you're looking for a really unique and truly beautiful place to have your wedding...you've found it! I really can't say enough about Castle Farms. From my first phone call with Alissa, who helped us book our date and then answered every question that I had for months on end with understanding, patience and humor, to all of my conversations and meetings with Jenna, who was our event coordinator, and who literally helped us turn our dream wedding into a reality with all of her hard work, patience and design know-how, we couldn't have asked for a more professional and sweet team of people to work with. I literally had tears in my eyes when I saw what the ceremony and reception spaces looked like the day of our wedding...it was so beautiful and it had truly surpassed all of my expectations. There's a very good reason that this venue gets booked up so far in advance...these people know weddings and will do everything to make your day as special as they can.
Castle Farms's reply:
It’s always a pleasure hearing from our Castle couples, and we especially loved hearing from you. You’re right about Jenna and Alissa… they’re both fabulous to work with (the rest of our staff is pretty amazing, too!). All of us at the Castle feel honored and privileged to have played a part in helping make your wedding dreams come true. Best wishes for a long and happy life together.

My husband and I can't say enough about this venue, it may seem pricy, it was well worth the price for a fairytale wedding that we'll have memories of for a lifetime! Everything went flawlessly thanks to the venue coordinators, and I always had prompt responses. All of our guests had a fantastic time, and raved about the beauty of the ceremony, and the venue as a whole. I would recommend this venue for anyone who hopes for a magical day, in a magical place to marry the man or woman of their dreams.

I am overcome with great joy when I think of our wedding day. Castle Farms helped make our dreams truly come true. The venue's beauty speaks for itself when it came to choosing a venue but the castle staff is what made our day complete. We had booked the venue a year and a half in advance and all the coordinators were beyond helpful and extremely friendly whenever I had any of those "silly bride" questions leading up to the day. I was assigned a wedding coordinator, Jenna, and she was very helpful. I emailed her a few times for various reasons and questions and she always responded promptly thoroughly.
As for the day of, it was spectacular! I had discovered the day after our wedding there were very few minor hiccups but I had never heard of one of them the day of, thankfully. Our coordinator handled everything and just made things happen and go smoothly.
I HIGHLY recommend Castle Farms! They have an absolutely incredible venue and even better people!!
Castle Farms's reply:

Knowing that we’re able to contribute to the overall happiness of a Castle couple, plus their family and friends, is what we strive to do. Congratulations again on your marriage.

I cannot speak highly enough of our experience at Castle Farms! My fiancé I planned our entire wedding while living in Georgia and had never even visited the site. Each email that I sent was answered timely, and kindly. Upon arriving to set up and rehearsal I was greeted warmly by Johanna who had been our assigned coordinator. Johanna was helpful, and calming and very kind.
The day of went perfectly. I literally cannot think of ONE thing that went wrong. As a bit of a self-proclaimed control freak, the Castle accommodated my every request, desire and was incredibly communicative.
Our guests (and us!) were in awe of how beautiful it was. I would recommend this venue 100%!

I cant say enough wonderful things about Castle Farms! From my very first phone call to the last minute of my reception was wonderful. I live 40 miles south of Chicago, so I booked the venue based on reviews and pictures. I assure you the pictures seen online do not do justice to the beauty of Castle Farms. My coordinator, Jenna, was amazing to work with! Thank you Castle Farms for helping me have the wedding of my dreams.
Castle Farms's reply:
Congratulations on your recent wedding! Castle Farms is indeed a magical place, and we take pride in treating all our Castle couples and their guests like royalty.

Castle Farms was not only one of the most beautiful places to tie the knot but they made the day go by with ease. There is so much to plan in a wedding and the minor details can be so overwhelming but at Castle Farms they make sure to work out the details with you before the big day. I can't even begin to tell you how responsive they were to emails and phone calls. If ever I had a question they made me feel at ease and responded ASAP. On the day of the wedding our coordinator kept checking in on us to make sure everything was running smoothly and that we didn't need anything else from them. For 2 days after the wedding my husband and I talked about the wedding and all the the things that people had complemented on. EVERYONE had a good time!!! I had been dating the love of my life for 11 years and couldn't have imagined a better place to marry him!
Castle Farms's reply:
We always love hearing from our Castle couples! We’re pleased that our staff met your expectations and more, up to and including on your wedding day. After spending eleven years of your life with the love of your life, you naturally would want everything to be perfect; we feel privileged and honored to have played a part in that romantic dream. Congratulations again. Please come back and visit on your anniversary!

My husband and I chose Castle Farms as our wedding venue for June 14th, and the entire staff did an amazing job helping us put it together and coordinating our dream wedding. It was everything we had hoped for and more. From our very first meeting, the staff made us feel relaxed and they did not let us down. Our coordinator made everything go so smoothly the day of, which made our evening effortless and allowed us to focus on friends, family, and fun. We didn’t have to think or stress about anything other than having a great time and enjoying our guests. Our coordinator was always behind the scenes making sure everything was perfect for us—making sure everything was happening on time. Not only is the staff at Castle Farms amazing, but the scenery around Castle Farms is absolutely beautiful. Our first visit to the castle was in January, and I didn’t have to second guess myself one bit. When we returned the next August with the flowers in bloom, I was speechless. No matter what season, Castle Farms is an elegant, romantic, and absolutely beautiful venue. We are so glad that we found Castle Farms (we are from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan), and we would be more than happy to recommend you in the future. We are honored to have had Castle Farms as a part of our big day and we will be forever appreciative of the hard work all of the staff put into our event in order to make it the best it could possibly be.

This venue is perfect... Not only is it absolutely breath taking, but the people that work here are truly the best. Jessica was so happy and sweet when we went on our tour. We booked that day. We went through hard times, but our coordinator Sarah helped us out with ways to make our dream happen. She was amazing! This place is perfect, because you are in control of everything, therefore, can tailor it to fit ANY budget! I am so happy we chose Castle Farms! We love it here so much that we plan on coming back every year to visit!
Castle Farms's reply:
Congratulations on your recent marriage. We’re thrilled to hear that your Castle wedding was elegant, beautiful, and exactly as you wanted it to be.

Loved my Castle Farms wedding!! The owners are delightful! Staff are all really sweet. Several family members have also fallen in love with Charlevoix and my sister will probably be getting married there. You cannot beat the gorgeous grounds...especially the trains and other unique attractions for the kids who come.

I fell in love with the Castle as soon as I saw it.
My husband first suggested Castle Farms as an option for our wedding and I balked due to the distance from home, however we were visiting family up north and we drove by the castle and I was sold. Within 5 minutes of walking around the castle grounds I knew that I wanted to have my wedding at Castle Farms. My family saw pictures online and we were hooked.
The staff at Castle Farms goes out of their way to make you feel welcome -- from the time you walk in until a week after your wedding when they check up to make sure everything went well!
There is a day of coordinator who walks you thru everything that you need to do or know. Very flexible with what you want... and I changed my mind about some things the week before.
I would recommend Castle Farms to anyone as the idea fairy tale location to have an event. They made me feel every inch the pampered bride the day of my wedding. My guests told me that they had never been to such an amazing place... it was magical.
Castle Farms's reply:
Thank you for letting us know how much you loved having your wedding at Castle Farms. We agree that the Castle is indeed a magical place, and we take pride in treating every Castle couple like royalty. We’re so glad your wedding day was as perfect as you hoped it would be. Best wishes to you both for a long and magical life together!

Castle Farms was great. Johanna was awesome. While we were setting up she was up there every hour or so ensuring that everything was going great and checking if we needed anything. The day of she kept everyone calm and on the proper timeline. While we were taking pictures she brought down some beverages which was great because it was quite warm.
I think they guests liked that they didnt have to go anywhere else for the reception.
Castle Farms's reply:
Congratulations on your recent marriage! We love hearing from Castle couples, and we’re thrilled to hear that everything turned out as perfect as you hoped.

It’s a new service we’re offering to Castle bridal couples, with several different packages available. Again, we offer our congratulations to you and our wishes for many years of happiness together!

From beginning to end the event coordinators made planning and coordinating both the ceremony & reception very easy. Our specific coordinator, Johanna, was very professional, prompt and gave great advice and suggestions whenever needed. The castle & surrounding gardens are so beautiful it's hard to find a better setting at other venues in the area. You can't go wrong if you choose Castle Farms for your wedding or special event!
Castle Farms's reply:
Our best wishes to you both! We love hearing from our Castle couples, and we couldn’t agree more that the Castle, with its soaring stone towers and magnificent gardens, makes the picture-perfect setting for a breathtaking, never-to-be-forgotten wedding. Congratulations to you both!
