Venue is absolutely beautiful and everything you could want for an outdoor wedding! John and Pat are great to work with. Set up, tear down is seamless and they coordinates with your vendors you bring in. The cabin you can rent on site is perfect. John is quick to respond to questions and willing to let you come on site for whatever you need to help plan your wedding.

Our day was absolutely perfect and the venue was gorgeous! We received so many compliments about how amazing and beautiful the grounds were. We would recommend this place over and over again for a wedding! Hands down the best! This scenic waterside grounds features a three-season outdoor wedding reception hall beside a waterfall and pond.

Owners John and Pat Pierucki were married on their farm in 1984. From then until 1999 they operated a horse stables on the property, know as Spring Brook Stables. They hosted many 4-H and family events. In 1999 their daughter got married by the gazebo. The following year they started leasing the property for weddings.
That's a fair question, and one you should definitely ask, before deciding. We couldn't have picked a better spot to have our wedding and every single detail about the day was absolutely perfect. John and Pat made sure that everything we needed, we had and every question we had, was answered.

If you are able to find a day to book and have your wedding here you will never regret it and will be very lucky to have this place be the place to spend your important day.Everything from setup in the morning to flow of the wedding and then cleanup at the end of the night was made so easy by John and his staff and helped made it a night we'll never forget.
Our facility is happy to offer assistance with regard to vendor information, etc., however, we do not impose restrictions regarding these choices. We realize these are personal decisions which allow you to create your own special day! An air conditioned dressing room with private restroom is included with the cost of the venue for the whole day.

We had our wedding here this past weekend and it was perfect. All of our guests were raving about how beautiful the venue was. I had lots of questions leading up to the wedding and the owners were always extremely helpful and responsive.

My sister got married here this past weekend and it was so beautiful. The landscaping here is immaculate and the stream that goes behind the alter is gorgeous. I would 100% recommend this location. The owners are very kind and helpful as well. Good people, fantastic location.

I was skeptical driving up to middle-of-nowhere Michigan for a wedding, but I couldn't have been more impressed! This place was a little hidden paradise. The grounds are gorgeous and meticulously manicured, and the staff seemed extremely helpful and accommodating while somehiw also staying nearly invisible. The whole time it felt like we were at some fancy private resort. Definitely one of the better weddings I've been to!

I attended a wedding at this place. It was really over the top super good. I have never been to a better venue. I cant give them enough kudos for their first class establishment. I strongly recommend everyone check this place out. Very very very cool.

Riverside Reception has one of the most beautiful reception sites that I have ever seen. Our daughter was married their August 31, 2013 and the day was perfect. The landscaping is breathtaking, flowers are beautiful and it is all tucked in around a beautiful stream. The pavilion is clean, tastefully decorated and has excellent ventilation and fans to keep everything cool and pleasant. The owners are amazing, helpful and not intrusive. They did their jobs of being there whenever they were needed and yet never seemed to be on top of anyone. They were friendly and we lacked for nothing. I would recommend
