    The perfect English Wedding

    This was the perfect venue for us. Do you want an old-world feel and classic feeling for your wedding? This is perfect. Do you want all the amenities, modern accommodations for your wedding? This isn’t it.

    We wanted to feel like we were in another world for our wedding. This served as the perfect place. My husband and I stayed in the Ivy suite and his groomsmen in the Essex. This was perfect as he went to the Essex room to get ready with the groomsmen and the Ivy was perfect for the bridal party as there were multiple rooms for hair and makeup to set up.

    Most of the wedding party and family rented out the rooms - so we got to see those, and all were unique and beautiful in their own ways. I recommend reserving the room Bath for a bridesmaid or whomever will be steaming dresses.

    The pergola and Medovue Hall both were beautiful for the ceremony and reception respectively. We didn’t do a lot of decorations because I felt the beauty of the hall spoke for itself. We had the Duck for dinner - and it was perfect. Everyone raved about it. The bartenders and waitstaff were so nice and personable.

    Adriana was great to organize and work with. All in all, we loved our venue and highly recommend it.

    Hidden Gem

    The English Inn is truly a breathtaking hidden gem. We had our wedding here in July 2025 and could not be more pleased with this venue. Adriana was truly a pleasure to work with and provided support in more ways than we could have ever imagined, she truly helped everything come together no matter the surprises that came up. The Essex was large enough for our party to get ready in, while the other rooms in the building are just seconds away as well. The grounds are absolutely stunning for all your photos. The staff provided 5 star service all night. We got so many compliments on the food, our appetizers went so fast (definitely order more than you think!), the filet was delicious and the best quality we’ve had at a wedding- think true fine dining taste! The venue even stepped up last minute and helped with our desserts when we had a mishap with our original vendor. An additional perk of this venue is when you book a room, a delicious fresh breakfast is included the following morning, it was so special to see so many of our guests before we checked out. I cannot recommend this venue enough for your wedding, or even a dinner celebration

    Perfect Venue

    Our wedding was at the English Inn in Eaton Rapids on June 6th, and it was truly the most magical, flawless day we could have imagined. From start to finish, every detail was handled with care, professionalism, and warmth.

    We especially want to thank Adriana, who was an absolute joy to work with. She was kind, responsive, organized, and always one step ahead—anticipating our needs and making sure the entire day ran smoothly. Her calm, friendly presence made the planning process and the wedding day itself feel effortless and joyful.

    The venue is simply stunning. The grounds are immaculate—lush gardens, flowing fountains, and charming pathways that made for incredible photos and peaceful moments throughout the day. The ceremony setting was idyllic, and the reception hall was elegant and inviting. Our guests are still raving about the beauty of the cocktail hour area and how cozy and lovely the cottages were for those who stayed on-site.

    Every element—from the staff’s professionalism to the flow of the timeline—was handled with such excellence. We felt so taken care of and so confident in the team, which allowed us to fully enjoy the day and focus on what mattered most.

    The English Inn was a huge part of making our wedding day as special and perfect as it was. We cannot recommend them highly enough!

    Magically charming and highly professional

    The English Inn provided exceptional service, breathtaking scenery, and excellent food and drinks. We couldn’t have chosen a better venue for our wedding day! It was magical and breathtaking. We went with their diamond package, reserved the entire day, had our ceremony and reception there, and reserved cottages for multiple nights. Their event coordinator, Adriana, exceeded our expectations with so many details it’s difficult to list everything. One special, beyond expectation moment was how she helped coordinate our marriage certificate signing within the library, complete with champagne and hors devours from the cocktail hour, for an intimate moment with our immediate family members. All staff made great impressions on us and our guests. We had many guests stay at the Inn for the weekend, and all of them were highly impressed. The grounds and estate have been very well maintained, including being freshly mowed the morning of. We’d also like to highlight the kitchen crew and bar staff; they were on top of it! Everyone enjoyed their meals and couldn’t get enough of the specialty cocktails. Overall, we feel and heard from our guests that our wedding was magical, and we know a great deal of that came from the hard work of The English Inn and its staff. It really isn’t possible to write out all the positive feedback we feel and heard from our guests – without writing a book!

    Hidden gem!

    We don't have enough great things to say about The English Inn. The grounds are breathtaking and made for the perfect location for our wedding. The gardens are beautiful and well-kept and the riverfront was a peaceful backdrop for our ceremony. The on-site rooms allowed us to keep our immediate family and closest friends close which made for the perfect wedding weekend. We had great locations for getting ready which made for excellent photo ops. The staff was so friendly and considerate and went out of their way to make our weekend special. I can't thank everyone enough, especially Adriana who addressed all of my emails in a friendly, timely manner. She was constantly checking in throughout the wedding and ready to address any issues that arose. We're looking forward to spending many of our anniversaries here for years to come.

    A+ wedding venue

    Wow, the English Inn was an incredible choice for wedding venue on all fronts. The events manager was so professional, organized, and responsive - our planning anxiety was hugely reduced just by being in their capable hands. We loved having our ceremony on the beautiful grounds outside, cocktail hour was a blast on the patio outside the reception hall, and Medovue was nice and spacious for the reception. (Plus, we loved it as a backup location for the ceremony in case of bad weather.) We're thankful for all the staff's help throughout the day, and everyone LOVED dinner.

    We loved having our wedding here, and you will, too!

    Absolutely perfect!

    The English inn was the perfect choice for our wedding and I wouldn’t change a thing about it! The planning process was so simple - Adriana walked us through each decision and in no time our day was planned. Our guests loved the food and the simplicity of having the ceremony and dinner in one room. An extra bonus was not needing to decorate because the Inn is beautiful as is! The flexibility of the venue on rearranging our seating at the last minute (Covid cancellations), and the ease of selecting from
    their menu, and the fact they accept credit cards all just added to the day. It was truly a stress free experience which is great for a busy couple, or people who don’t want to spend a lot of time wedding planning. I have absolutely no regrets and am so grateful for the inn and their amazing staff!

    All-inclusive and Absolutely Gorgeous!

    My wife and I fell in love with the English Inn the moment we laid eyes on it. We both have backgrounds in history, so it just felt right to have our wedding at a historic venue. Every inch of the inn, the outlying cottages, and the grounds outside are beautiful year-round. Our wedding colors of green and gold fit perfectly with the decor both indoors in Medovue Hall as well as outside as the fall leaves began to turn. On top of the beautiful view during our ceremony and reception, the service from events manager Adriana was beyond exceptional. Due to the pandemic, we made the difficult decision to push our wedding date back from 2020 to 2021, and Adriana was extremely accommodating throughout the entire process. She helped us move our room bookings, adjust the date and time of our ceremony and reception, and was consistently there for us whenever we needed help planning aspects of our day. In terms of our actual wedding, we felt that all the services provided to us were well worth the price. The meals were quite literally some of the most delicious we've ever had in our entire lives, and the service throughout the cocktail hour and reception were phenomenal. We had several guests with dietary restrictions all of them were accommodated with excellent meals. And in the evening when it was time to retire to our rooms, we were again met with luxury in every aspect. The rooms were fantastic and each of them unique in a charming way. All of our guests complimented us on our choice of venue and were pleased with the English Inn as much as we were. And if we had to choose again, we would choose to have our wedding at the English Inn in a heartbeat. We can't wait to visit again!

    Mother of bride

    My daughter scheduled her reception with the English Inn. Because she lives in another state I met with the coordinator several
    times to confirm plans. Everything and everyone was spot on. The venue was beautiful the wait staff impeccable and the food was delicious. Cooked to perfection and Service was fabulous.

    The English Inn is absolutely the most gorgeous venue for a wedding! We were married there September 6th 2019 and was just beautiful! Adriana Olney head of special event planning was awesome to work with! She was there the whole day to make sure everything went smoothly. All staff was professional and fun! It’s so nice to have the ceremony and reception in one spot. The grounds are so beautiful for the ceremony and pictures! Reception hall is gorgeous! I had so many compliments on this venue!

    Phenomenal

    Our daughter recently got married at the English Inn. Every moment start to finish was amazing! The ceremony and reception areas were gorgeous! The wait staff went over and beyond to ensure that our event went smoothly and our guests were taken care of - like royalty! Rebecca personally maintained contact with me ensuring our happiness; she and her banquet team were spectacular and professional in every possible way. Our guests raved about the food, as the meal was phenomenal!!! Every aspect of the planning process, rehearsal, rehearsal dinner, ceremony, reception and throughout the wedding day and our nights stay was perfection. It will be a day/experience we will always remember fondly, with gratitude to English Inn staff.
    Adriana, the special events organizer, was a joy to work with. She made the planning and execution of our event a pleasant and joyful experience. The English Inn is blessed to have her on staff. She is an incredible representative of the English Inn and the event services they offer. If I could I would give them a 10 star rating!!! I highly recommend you choose the English Inn for your special occasion!

    Our entire experience with The English Inn was truly amazing. Amber was an absolute pleasure to work with, and she went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect. We stayed in the Ivy Cottage, and it was the perfect place for my bridal party to get ready the morning of our wedding. The grounds are absolutely breathtaking and we were able to get some beautiful pictures before and after our offsite ceremony. The staff was exceptional, and the food was out of this world. We received so many compliments from our guests who loved the venue, service, and said the food was the best they ever had. I can’t say enough wonderful things about our experience, and I can’t wait to go back for our 1-year anniversary.
