Weddings in Michigan are not at all what people might think the first time they hear that phrase – people are not getting married in the middle of nowhere. Weddings in Michigan are located at a beautiful castle farm that looks like a replica of an ancient castle that might be located in England, Scotland or Ireland. It’s a beautiful place where many couples are exchanging their wedding vows and having a wonderful time, no matter the weather.

Since Michigan is located in the middle of the United States, they experience all the seasons and couples can choose to be married on a beautiful fall day or on a crisp, cool winter’s day with the snow lightly falling and perhaps rent a horse drawn carriage to complete the ‘fairytale’ image that the castle evokes.

Northern Michigan weddings are not only for those people who live in the state or are local to the area, anyone from anywhere can have a beautiful wedding in the castle. The bride will work with a wedding consultant or coordinator to ensure that everything will go smoothly for her special day. The wedding coordinator has a list of caterers, florists, photographers and anything else a bride and groom would need for their special day, or they are free to use people they know or bring their own items to the castle, however there is no food preparation area. The caterers set up hot buffets for wonderful full course dinners all the time. And there is always the option of an afternoon tea or brunch near in one of the many gardens.

When a couple decides on a destination wedding or a ‘weddingmoon’ as they are sometimes referred to in bride magazines, then they need to give friends and family as much advanced notice as possible. This is so that they can make arrangements with their job to be off work, make travel preparations and lodging accommodations near the destination. Castle weddings are unique and a lot of fun for the bride and groom and their entire party of family and friends and it is always nice when everyone that means the most to them can attend.
