    We cannot say enough wonderful things about our wedding at The Perry Hotel. From the stunning location overlooking Lake Michigan to the flawless execution of every detail, the entire experience was unforgettable. We feel especially lucky to have worked with Jill Harrell, who was truly the heart and soul of our planning process. Jill was exceptional—incredibly quick to respond, endlessly helpful, and full of smart, creative ideas that elevated our day in ways we hadn’t even imagined. No matter how big or small the question, Jill was on it, and always with such warmth and enthusiasm. She made us feel so supported and truly listened to every step of the way. We’re also grateful to Cindy, who was so kind and helpful as our on-site coordinator. Her calm presence helped keep everything running smoothly throughout the evening. The cocktail hour snacks were delicious, the drinks were expertly made, and our dinner and dessert were out of this world. The serving staff was so attentive and professional, striking the perfect balance of being available without ever interrupting the flow of the evening. Even when a surprise downpour rolled in, everything stayed perfectly dry inside the tent, and the staff handled the weather seamlessly—truly a testament to how well-prepared and experienced the team is. The Perry Hotel gave us a wedding day that was joyful, beautiful, and completely stress-free. We’re so grateful for Jill and the entire team for making it all happen with such care and excellence. It was everything we hoped for and more.

  • We loved the Perry!!!

    Stafford's Perry Hotel was the most perfect venue for our wedding day. From the very beginning, their team was incredibly responsive, professional and helpful throughout the entire planning process. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful, with a spacious tented area overlooking the stunning water views. It was also a huge plus our guests could stay at the hotel! It was cold and rainy on our day but the hotel already had tents and heaters which was a life saver. On the day of our wedding, the staff was so kind and caring, and truly helped our day run smoothly from start to finish. They give you a great vendor list which helped in the planning process as well. We could not have asked for a better wedding venue, and are so grateful to the Stafford's Perry Hotel team for making our special day truly unforgettable.
