Catering off-site events can be difficult, but Jeanne Fleming made it a breeze. We, as caterers, were able to communicate easily with her from when the wedding planning began through the day and evening of the event. We were able to work together in a way that gave the bride and groom nothing to worry about on their special day. I have been recommending The Christy House after discovering how great they are to work with!

One day last July I saw online that The Barn had a cancellation and a wedding date in September. I reached out to inquire and Laura was SO kind, helpful and prompt with communication. We loved the venue and booked, sent out invitations and planned our wedding super quickly (after 10 years together.) Every step of the way went smoothly with planning and communication and we absolutely LOVED having our wedding there. We had room for a live band, there was plenty of parking, lots of great places for photo ops on the property, a lovely bridal room to get ready in, a silo gazebo, we could choose our own caterer, there plenty of seating (we loved the church pews and the wooden chairs,) and there were just so many other nice touches. We bought small glass jars which they filled with their honey (for a reasonable fee) and we gave our guests Honey Blossom Orchard honey as the wedding reception favor. (Btw-their honey IS absolutely delicious!) We can’t say enough good about The Barn as a wedding/reception venue and if you are looking for somewhere relaxed, rustic and beautiful to have your wedding, this is your place:)

The Barn at Walnut Creek is top-notch. We've had the pleasure of providing DJ services there multiple times. The owners are incredibly easy to work with and ensure all details are on point. Their setup is perfect in every way. Once inside their normal decor is very tasteful. The main room, restrooms, kitchen, and bar are always spotless. Attendants ensure that guests are parked safely upon arrival. This is extremely uncommon for most wedding/reception venues. While we enjoy entertaining all of our clients and their guests, our times are The Barn at Walnut Creek are some of the most memorable. Look no further!

The Eastern is a wonderful industrial, versatile venue in the heart of Eastern Market in downtown Detroit! This venue comes as a blank slate. So many different options as to how you can dress this venue up for a wedding/event. Be sure to use the few large wooden tables it comes with for your buffet table, hors d’oeuvre table, seating outdoors, head-table etc. Look no further than The Eastern or The Norwood for your wedding! I would recommend this venue to any couple looking to have a wedding in a unique spot, rather than a ballroom.
