The Milestone Barn 

5.0

Bannister, MI
  • Up to 230 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $3,500

We are located in Bannister, Michigan and were transformed to a barn wedding location in 2011. The owners realized that a rustic and country chic wedding was what they wanted soon after their engagement. Now they hope to bring their vision to others, while maintaining the affordability that allows everyone to enjoy a rustic barn wedding. The Milestone Barn serves the purpose of housing the weddings and other “milestone” events throughout ones life. Whether it’s a wedding, reception, graduation party, prom, or any other gathering, The Milestone Barn will provide you exactly the rustic country, yet elegant feeling you wish to achieve. Perfectly located 10 miles west of Chesaning, The Milestone Barn sits between Lansing, Saginaw and Flint, allowing us to serve the vast majority of lower Michigan.

We got married in August 2018 at The Milestone Barn and it was the wedding of our dreams! The barn and grounds are stunning. I loved everything about my wedding. Carolyn was amazing to work with and always there to answer my questions. People loved the venue so much that we talked about doing it again (minus the wedding part). You won’t regret getting married there. If you are looking for food, hotel, or someone to marry you they have recommendations!! I wouldn’t have changed a thing.

Woldumar Nature Center 

4.5

Lansing, MI
  • Up to 150 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $2,750

Choosing Woldumar for your Lansing wedding venue will not only provide a beautiful and unforgettable experience for you and your guests, but also will support our nonprofit environmental education efforts - giving you one more reason to smile on your wedding day! Our beautifully maintained grounds are available for your guests to explore, several outdoor locations are superb settings for a memorable ceremony, and the RE Olds Anderson Rotary Barn is a one-of-a-kind rustic venue for your celebratory reception. Imagine your unforgettable Wedding Ceremony held in a beautiful outdoor venue among the enchanting, natural settings found at Woldumar!

Having our wedding at Woldumar was SO, SO special!!! We took the risk of having an August 10 wedding in their barn with no A/C...and we were rewarded with beautiful 70 degree weather. One of their exhaust fans was broken, but they purchased window fans and an industrial fan to keep the air moving. Definitely not an issue for us given our incredible weather, but I was a little nervous in the lead-up. Victoria was SO EASY to work with, I cannot sing her praises enough. From booking until wedding day, she was right there with us. She had fantastic advice on vendors and ceremony details that made things go so smoothly (walking across the bridge was the best idea EVER). The golf cart photo tour was AWESOME, too! My husband and I are very outdoorsy, so it was fun to spend so much time outside on our big day. You can tell the Woldumar staff put a lot of love into their grounds. We got so many compliments on how beautiful everything was! It was truly the perfect venue for us. We didn't even need much decor because the barn and ceremony space are so beautiful on their own. We didn't purchase day-before or day-after barn access which made things a little chaotic. I recommend getting the day-after cleaning, as we were in a mad rush to get things cleaned before midnight on wedding day. The security guard was also very rude during clean up. I'd pay extra to not have to deal with him again... All in all, great venue for the outdoorsy couple! We loved being able to choose all of our own vendors, too. We felt like we had so much creative control, which we wouldn't have gotten at a full-service venue. It's also so comforting to know our money went to a nature center. Much better than a golf course, at least in my opinion!

They were incredibly patient and professional, even helping us get around the zoo for our photos in a golf cart! The quality of their work and the overall value they provided was truly outstanding - the space was open, inviting, and just plain fun for us and all of our guests. I received so many compliments from our loved ones about how beautiful the zoo was and how polite the staff was. So many core memories were made at Potter Park, and I am endlessly grateful to Jenna and her team for making our special day as stress-free and magical as possible. Thank you, Potter Park Zoo!

Everyone at The Waddell Center, especially our coordinator Bre, was so helpful throughout the planning process. Bre answered every question we had and made sure the entire day went as smoothly as possible. She truly went above and beyond to ensure we were happy and stress-free. We couldn't have asked for a better venue or team to work with for our special day. Another perk is the parking lot! Anything close to downtown never has appropriate/easy parking and this had more than enough!

  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor

Located in Grand Rapids, Michigan at the John Ball Zoo, the Bissell Tree House is one of West Michigan’s most unique event spaces. This hidden gem provides couples an amazing view of the downtown Grand Rapids area with its floor-to-ceiling glass windows. With its tree house feel and large covered veranda sitting at one of Grand Rapids' highest land points, couples can get that sense of being on top of the world as they share their love with family and friends. All proceeds benefit the conservation missions and animals of John Ball Zoo!

It has been nearly four years since my wife and I were married in the Bissell Treehouse, and there's not a week that we don't look back at our photo album, and reminiscence of our amazing experience there. We worked with Skye through all of the planning and setup, and I cannot experience how unique, amazing, and beautiful the venue is. We called it our treehouse adventure, and it was nothing short of that. The layout is excellent, it has great views of Grand Rapids, many of the bigger vendors work with the Bissell Treehouse, and overall it was a very easy process to get everything setup and squared away. If you have the opportunity to work with them, do it, it will be remembered forever, by you and all of your guests.

The venue is absolutely amazing! It's so gorgeous and private! Diane and her husband are both just amazing people! They were so flexible with us and made set up so easy! The garden alone is a show stopper but that chandelier in the barn is the icing on the top of the cake for me! We didn't even hardly add any decorations to the barn because of its natural beauty. I would 1000% recommend this venue to absolutely anyone. For the price, it's the best experience I could have imagined for my wedding day!
