I'm not really hyped on this place, but the wedding planner insists that we take a look at it. It's a hotel ballroom, it's carpeted, it's a carpeted hotel ballroom. We agreed to look at it.
The Inn at St. John's - Plymouth
I would love to have the wedding here, but it is sooo expensive. It used to be an old seminary and a couple years back they redeveloped it as a golf course/inn/banquet center. It's really beautiful in pictures and though we are not hyped on getting married in anything religious, the chapel is amazing.
Michigan Union Ballroom - Ann Arbor
Pre-wedding planner, this was our #1 destination and #1 venue. It's really beautiful inside. We love downtown Ann Arbor as a backdrop. Downfall is that we would need to wait until school is over so there aren't kids everywhere and all catering is done through U of M, so there would go our dream to have White Castle late night snacks.
Lafayette Grand - Pontiac
I have never heard of this place and not really hyped on having it in Pontiac. Our wedding planner found it and it looked pretty cool. Our atmospheric vision translated to rustic and art deco to her. It is very art deco. Hmm. It looks like their website domain is up for sale. Hopefully that's not indicative of things to come.
We are taking a look at some, if not all of these places when we go to Michigan in a couple of weeks, so hopefully we will finally find something and actually start planning this shiz. Wish us luck.
