The perfect venue. Ceremony and reception space all in one. Along with the patio space which was a huge hit for all the kids at our wedding. They offer open houses which was nice for planning. There is so much space to work with. They have rules, but still allow you to use the creative side.

Rustic shabby chic Event Venue conveniently located in south-central Michigan bordered by lush woods, rustic barns, and farmland.

Evergreen Ranch is conveniently located near I-69, US-12, 80/90 Toll Road, and US-131 with local hotels and professional local shuttle services offered. We are in our 5th year of business, in which we continue to thrive by expanding new offerings and updates each year.

This place was GORGEOUS! It has beautiful outdoor ceremony sites, an amazing indoor reception spot that could have easily doubled as a ceremony site in the event of bad weather, his and hers silos, bathrooms, AND you can choose your own caterer (or do it yourself). They were so wonderfully accommodating and helpful…to the point where they were weed whacking the night of the rehearsal dinner to help us prepare the photo spots we needed. It was such a joy to have our wedding here!

The Bellflower is truly a one-of-a-kind space. Instead of tearing down the historic schoolhouse from the 1800s, the owner embarked on a journey to restore it and give it new purpose. The venue now hosts a variety of events like pop-ups with local businesses, elopements & micro-weddings, and showers. The rates are extremely reasonable & they even have decor and furniture available for event use. Highly recommend!

Venue 1230 LLC 

5.0

Hastings, MI
  • Up to 500 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $3,500

We are a Brand new start up Venue in Hastings MI. I have been in the weddiing industry for 15 years and have learned that there are very few places out there that are willing to put the time and effort into each event. I wanted to open the doors to my own place to provide the best possible experience for anyone that comes through the doors. We have an amazing outdoor garden ceremony site that will transport you to a place of peace and serenity. I am adding more vendors in-house to provide quality and cost effective options for anyone interested in having one contact person for the entire experience.

We used Venue 1230 to host our wedding reception and we were so happy with how everything went. We would 10 out of 10 recommend this venue to all of our family and friends. Yon and his staff went above and beyond to accommodate our every need. The size of the venue itself was one thing that helped seal the deal for us. We had kids and there was more than enough space for them to play while the adults continued to mingle and enjoy themselves. We also highly appreciated how beautifully decorated the whole venue was. We barely had to bring anything in besides our basic table decorations. We had so many guests commenting on how tastefully everything was done. Another thing that I really appreciated was how much Yon and his team cared. They were always asking where they could help or how they could better serve us. At the end of the day, they did everything in their power to make sure that we had a perfect day that we would remember forever.

Marion Magnolia Farms 

5.0

Cassopolis, MI
  • Up to 299 guests
  • Raw space
  • Outdoor
  • Starts at $4,500

Located in the small town of Cassopolis, MI. The very first barn style wedding venue that is the perfect combination of elegance and rustic charm. What started out as a pipe dream led to something completely unexpected as we worked hard to achieve something we never thought possible. We picked the name “ Marion Magnolia Farms.” As we thought of both of our daughters and named it after them as Marion and Magnolia are their middle names. We are excited to present our dream to not only our small, hometown community but to the many others surrounding us. We hope to help the other small businesses here flourish.

I can’t recommend a better venue! This venue was EVERYTHING! The owners, Brittany and Nick, are absolutely sweet and communicated promptly. The venue is family ran by having family doing different parts. The coordinator Lauren was the calmest ever and helped calm my nerves and handled all the issues without me even knowing. She and her team were amazing! Lauren helped give me the wedding of my dreams. This venue was perfect and the beautiful bridal suite is so spacious and beautiful! Also there’s an airbnb on property that me, my girls, and my mom stayed the night before (it can sleep 15 people). I could go on about my love for the venue and the caring people I’ve met that maintain the character and charm. If you want barn but also elegant…this is the venue for you!
