It was all open field and they do have beautiful landscaping and steps going down. When you book this place you get it for the whole weekend. I was the wedding photographer and i was stretched thin walking back and forth and up and down. I will say the steps going upstairs into the reception area which is in the upper level of a barn did not feel very safe. They do have a working elevator for guests that cant do steps but it is extremely slow so it is not something you'd want several people using. It holds 4 people at a time and takes all of 5 minutes. They had another area that you can rent for an additional $3k to have the reception on ground level. You will need outside catering and i would hire/bring someone to maintain the premises during your celebration. Ive been shooting weddings for 10 years and this is the first time ever that i seen the groom empty trashcans during the middle of his wedding reception. The owners were not there and nobody seemed to be there maintaining anything but this seems to be happening more and more. I never seen anyone working other than bartenders and the catering company. The couple that hired me brought a golf cart which I would say you'd absolutely need. It would have been great if the venue provided one but they did not. We were there in early June so it wasn't too hot yet but I imagine Jul Aug Sept are pretty hot in that barns upper level. They had portable ac units but with 170 guests in the upper level of a barn, I will just say that the bride and grooms faces were pretty shiny. It wasn't terrible in June. All in all, it is a beautiful property and you get it for the entire weekend. There is plenty of room for everyone and they will allow a few campers to park on the property as well. I would love to see them just use that lower level but its not my business. It would be so much nicer if they invested in some round tables and had a centrally located space designated for food and a dance floor like a real wedding venue but that is all tucked away in a corner. All of the tables are laid out like a school cafeteria but without gaps between them and barely any space. You can see in the photos. If the venue sets it all up, I would absolutely suggest that you specify that you would like space between the tables so people can get in and out of their seats and a central location for the dancing. Im honestly not sure who sets everything up though. It was a very unique experience. If that lower level would have been included and someone maintained the premises, I would give it 5 stars all day because it really is a beautiful and secluded location. For the upstairs of a really old barn, I am struggling to give 4 stars but I have no reason not to. Im just glad i was there in June!

Very nice wedding venue - I attended a wedding here this weekend…read more It was pouring out all day, so the ceremony was underneath a covered area, and then cocktails/appetizers were downstairs in a different area and the reception was in the barn. The wedding party stayed in the house which I believe is an option you can choose. The area is kind of in the middle of nowhere (20 minutes from Jackson and 45 from Ann Arbor) so I'd imagine that was helpful. The stairs leading up to the 2nd floor of the barn from the 1st floor are pretty narrow - I was luckily wearing flats but I can't imagine navigating it in heels. Otherwise, really nice venue for a wedding.

My husband and I got married here in the fall. NOT worth the money. It looked amazing when we…read moreviewed the place. It was even still decorated from their relatives wedding a few weeks prior to us viewing it. However, upon actually using the place it was clearly cleaned immaculately for the family member. The huge beautiful windows were murky and had smudges all over them (A few of my wedding photos show this). The yellow jackets were a HUGE problem resulting in 2 guests being stung. You aren't allowed to use an outside caterer unless you pay them $2000 and the food had no flavor. They set out MOLDY cheese for our guests, which did get partially consumed before a bridesmaid noticed. They removed the appetizers and never said a word to my husband or me and never replaced it with anything! We paid over $300 for cheese, crackers, and veggies! They state in the contract that we can't take home leftovers due to Health Department codes, understandable, however, their kitchen staff took the leftovers home after clearing dinner up before our guests were even done eating. Their kitchen staff also stole desserts that we paid for from a separate vendor! No one is on site after dinner is cleaned up so if you have anything come up during the reception you have to contact them over the phone. Our DJ stated he didn't like the way the owner dictated how everything was set up and time frames so he has decided to no longer DJ at this venue. The next day we discovered trash in the room to get ready in that was obviously not left by us which means they didn't even thoroughly clean the room. We were so highly disappointed with this place. We worked hard to pay for this and it was not the dream wedding we both envisioned at all.

All the rooms were super clean and lawn was mowed the morning before our wedding. All of the staff that we met the day before our wedding and the morning of were so kind and helpful! We had more people than we originally thought and they were so helpful with accommodating the extra chairs for the ceremony and worked with everything that we wanted done. I cannot say enough good things about this day and this venue made all of our wedding dreams come true. I highly recommend this venue to anyone!!

I came here yesterday for a friend's bridal shower. I posted a few photos here of the space but not…read moretoo many, because hers was Bridgerton-themed and it looks like the space is pretty versatile. I found out later they have two event venues, the greenhouse (where we were) and the old pickle factory, in the back. The greenhouse was very nice and held up well for our party of 30 or so. The pickle factory can apparently seat up to 250, according to The Millhaven's website. This venue would have been 5 out of 5 stars for me except for one reason: I'm pregnant and I have Crohn's, and the bathroom choices for the greenhouse or either to go inside, and you have to go past the cash register and into the kitchen, or to the pickle factory which was like a 1-minute walk. I couldn't find the pickle factory until the end of my friend's event, and when I did see it, it was very nice, with extremely modern bathrooms - I believe the space is newish, because my friend said when she originally visited The Millhaven, it wasn't even built yet. I would consider holding an event in either space though because both were very unique, and service was great, as well. I had never been to Marshall before - my friend and most of us in attendance live in the Metro Detroit area - and the downtown looked very cute, as well.

Christine was absolutely wonderful. She was patient and answered all of my questions, she made the whole process so much easier for us. The pictures do not do her home justice, and I loved that we were able to customize every detail about our ceremony. With the lighting and beautiful stained glass windows we got a lot of beautiful photos as well. It still almost seems unreal. If you are looking for an intimate wedding, and just want to keep it simple and classy, this is absolutely the place to go!
