Awarded Best of Zola
Our wedding at Etre farms was absolutely perfect. The Etre team makes wedding plan a dream. I kept thinking to myself, "why am I not stressed yet..shouldn't I be stressed?" month over month ahead of our wedding day - but it's because they think of quite literally everything. Working with their team requires very little from the bridegroom to make your dreams and vision come true. This was especially important to use as we live in a different state and are on the go for work nearly every week. Of course you still need to offer input and share your general vision but they help walk you through details you may be unfamiliar with - we had a handful of meetings over the course of the year and everything we discussed was made a reality. When the wedding finally came, we couldn't have asked for a better day. From the hospitality throughout the getting ready period with our personal concierge and food/drinks provided, to the beautiful space they created with in-house florals (Nicole is amazing!), the best wedding food I've ever had (by far), the beautiful details and signage (shout out Elliana @ Brush Letter Boards) and Etre's amazing in-house DJ - our wedding guests were and still are raving. This review would go on and on if I tried to highlight all the little details this team thought of. We are genuinely sad the planning process is over because we loved meeting and talking with this team regularly - they are all very kind people - so easy to work with and operate like a well-oiled machine. Highly recommend this group and this venue!

Shadowland is the perfect location for destination beach weddings and receptions in Southwest Michigan. Our venue accommodates everything from small intimate gatherings to large weddings with plenty of offerings to delight your guests as they share in your special day. Shadowland’s simple yet elegant décor lets you create the ambience you want for your wedding, special occasion, business meeting or event. And our unique offerings as part of the Silver Beach Center let you entertain your guests with beverages on the Sunset Patio overlooking the lighted Whirlpool Compass Fountain, delight them with rides on the magnificent, hand-carved Silver Beach Carousel or explore the world with the Curious Kids’ Discovery Zone.

We had our wedding at Shadowland on June 1, and I'm not sure if there's enough room here to say how much we loved working with Charlie and his staff. From the minute we reached out to book the venue a year beforehand, Charlie was accessible, prompt, thorough and helpful. Through every step of the process, we could count on Charlie to work with us to make our day special. The venue is perfect, flexible and offers guests the most beautiful views of Lake Michigan before, during and after your reception. We can't say enough great things about this place!

Hickory Corners, MI
  • Up to 60 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor

Your wedding is one of the most memorable and significant days of your life. Picturesque Kellogg Manor is a wonderful choice to bring beauty, luxury, and a one-of-a kind wedding experience to the couple, and all your guests. From your ceremony, reception, rehearsal dinner, or bridal shower, we can do it all. Here at the Manor House, we know that planning a wedding is a big undertaking, and we would love to take the stress of the day off your shoulders.

We had originally planned to have a wedding in Chicago, but when COVID hit we decided to have our wedding near my grandparents on Gull Lake. We were incredibly lucky we could have our ceremony here. It was perfect and Nicole was great to work with. Everything went super smoothly. Also my wife’s family stayed in one of the cottages nearby, which was great. We had our rehearsal dinner outside the house and had our pictures taken on the grounds. Oh and we got picked up by boat after the ceremony, which we couldn’t have done anywhere else.
