“When I first visited Bay Pointe as a potential wedding venue, I actually ended up shedding a couple of tears. I had this immediate feeling that this was the place I had to get married. Not only is the venue, absolutely beautiful and speaks for itself, but it made me feel like the wedding I dreamed of as a kid on the lake could come true. Working with the staff was such an incredible experience. They were extremely communicative on when deadlines were due, recommendations, and answered any questions that I had. I would highly recommend looking into Bay Pointe as a wedding venue because of the many options that they provide. Not only are there a couple of venues on site, but they provide great food, options, desserts, vendors, and more! Our wedding was absolutely beautiful and we would not change a thing and that is all thanks to our beautiful venue!”

“Jerry and his crew made out wedding day incredible! They helped run the whole day, they got the guests seated, kept everything on schedule, and ensured that Ben and I didn't have to worry about anything. When our flowergirl got stage-fright right before walking down the aisle, Jerry swooped in to save the day and helped her find her mom. We initially didn't plan to do a grand entrance into the reception, but Jerry and the DJ (Megan from Music that Moves) made one happen last-minute so our flower girl could have a second shot ar throwing her petals. You're not just getting a venue at Parkway, you're getting a whole team who will make your event run smoothly. If we ever do a vow renewal or anniversary party, we will be back!”

“The Off Map Glamping team from start to finish was IMPECCABLE. Ronny and Lisa’s attention to detail and really knowing what works best for their property, made our wedding perfect. We didn’t live near by so they let us pop by as much as we could, whenever we asked, they made it work. Everyone working on the property was knowledgeable, kind, and went above and beyond. You can tell they really love what they do and they will truly do anything to make sure your day is like none other. No words can describe how amazing and helpful the weekend event staff, D, Sara, Lisa’s father and another gentleman all equally helpful and SOOO kind. We never felt like a bother but more so family. We had so many guests and vendors say that this wedding at Off Map Glamping was the best they’ve ever attended thus far and that would not have been remotely possible without the people mentioned above. We wish we could relive it over and over, it was that incredible. Connor and I will forever rave about this place and we are SO thankful we can come back to camp and visit!!

“We had Xavier and Kaley for our wedding at Journeyman in November, and they were absolutely incredible to work with. From start to finish, they made the entire experience feel effortless. Their communication was clear, their energy was warm and positive, and they truly went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. Everyone loved the food—it was delicious and beautifully presented! The servers were so nice too!! At one point, we realized we needed to add an extra table, and Xavier and Kaley were so accommodating. They made it completely seamless and just made it happen, which took such a weight off our shoulders. You can tell they genuinely care about the couples they work with. They anticipated needs before we even said them out loud, kept everything organized behind the scenes, and made us feel supported and relaxed the entire day. Our guests even commented on how kind and professional they were. Xavier and Kaley played such a big part in making our day unforgettable, and we couldn’t be more grateful.

“My fiancé and I discovered the hidden gem of 19 North by Froehlich's while initially visiting for a delightful breakfast at Froehlich's restaurant. We were thrilled to learn it doubles as a stunning wedding venue! From the grandeur of the 8-foot chandelier and star-like pendant lights to the vintage charm of the ornate tin ceiling tiles, this venue marries historical preservation with modern elegance. The impressive wooden doors promise an unforgettable ceremony entrance, complemented by antique lounge sets and a private entrance through a picturesque glass atrium, perfect for a cocktail hour. The photos I'm including are frames from a video I took during the tour and they simply do not do this beautiful space justice! As a Chicago couple seeking a beautiful wedding without the metropolitan price tag, we were thrilled by 19 North's proximity to Chicago and charming towns like Three Oaks, New Buffalo, and Michigan City. The all-inclusive experience, from the beautiful furnishings to the option of building a custom menu, means fewer details to manage and more time to enjoy the journey to our special day. There are also tons of walkable Airbnbs which will be great for us and our out-of-town guests. The array of options and pricing transparency for catering and staffing have been impressive, reflecting the venue's commitment to ease and excellence. Drew, our point of contact, embodies professionalism and attentiveness, answering every query quickly with patience and insight. For those on the market for a wedding venue that promises a seamless blend of historical allure and contemporary services, look no further. I wholeheartedly recommend scheduling a visit to 19 North by Froehlich's - a true embodiment of vintage elegance and an all-encompassing wedding experience. We eagerly await our wedding day at this enchanting venue and are confident it will create memories that we and our guests will cherish forever!”

“I would choose The Lodge at Rush Lakes a million times over! We traveled from Michigan for our wedding, and Logan and Dustin made the entire process seamless. From the start, they were incredibly accommodating, sending us photos, measurements, and virtual tours to help us plan from afar. The property itself is stunning. We stayed for two nights, and the house was beautiful, spotless, and easily fit our entire family and bridal party. Our guests obsessed over the pool, and the tunnels connecting the three buildings are such a cool, unique touch! What really sets this venue apart is the staff. Logan, Dustin, and the team felt like family. They helped us unpack cars, handled setup and teardown, and even drove us around on side-by-sides for our first look and on the pontoon for some downtime. They even had special code names for me and my husband! When the weather looked like it might take a turn, they already had a 'Plan B' ready to go so we didn't have to worry for a second. They are the coolest, most personable people you will ever work with. Thank you for making our weekend so special! -Cody and Miranda Burris (Green Stallion and White Dove)”
