    The team at St. Joseph County Parks was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. Their communication was excellent - they were quick to respond to all of our questions and provided thorough information throughout the planning process. The venues they offer are truly special, with a historic and natural aesthetic that felt perfect for our big day. Not only were the spaces themselves stunning, but the overall value was incredible. The staff went above and beyond to help us navigate the entire wedding planning journey, always available to lend a hand or provide guidance. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and are so grateful to the St. Joseph County Parks team for helping make our wedding day so magical.
