The open layout offers multiple options for both the ceremony and the reception, offering an array of unique possibilities for planning the perfect wedding ceremony and reception.

Blue Heron Barn is an old dairy barn converted into a modern and elegant wedding venue. The barn is not heated or cooled. We do our best to provide fans and/or portable heaters in case of unpredictable Michigan temperatures. We highly recommend dressing for the weather on the day of the event. The barn and grounds are handicap accessible, including the restrooms.
Successful business owners know the importance of employee collaboration. Team building enables employees to be quicker and more effective in their work, an essential part of a company's overall health. Productivity is highest when corporate events are held at venues that provide an environment to get "down to business."

My husband and I got married at Blue Heron Barn in September 2021. Blue Heron Barn was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding! From the site visit to our wedding day, Tiffany and Bob were so helpful, kind, and accommodating the entire time! Tiffany was always available to answer questions and concerns (especially with COVID). When we met with Tiffany the week before our wedding (and the panic of little last minute details set in), she put me at ease with answers and helpful tips to all my questions and worries! They do such a great job keeping the barn in amazing shape/condition. The barn

My husband and I recently got married at the Blue Heron Barn in 2021! We couldn’t be happier with our choice! Tiffany and her staff strive to give you the best experience possible, and they excel at this! Our wedding was a dream, and this is largely due to Tiffany and her staff! I highly recommend choosing the Blue Heron Barn for your event location! You will not be disappointed!!

We could not have dreamt of a more PERFECT wedding venue and better overall experience than we had with Tiffany and Bob and The Blue Heron Barn.
The venue-
The Blue Heron Barn is not just an ordinary wedding venue, it is a one-of-a-kind space to host a wedding in a modern and sophisticated interior. The Blue Heron Barn offers a wide variety of floor plans, layouts, and décor to help plan your perfect day, but still encourages you to make it your own space to be exactly what you want. Our guests loved the meticulously manicured grounds and the open air dining space giving us the best of both

Our wedding at the Blue Heron Barn was simply amazing. It was everything we dreamed of AND MORE! Tiffany and Bob were so easy to work with through every step of the planning. They were very responsive to calls/emails. The space is absolutely beautiful - so decorating was so easy. They have attendants to help set up/clean up and we’re available all night for whatever we needed. I could go on and on about how amazing it was! Highly recommend!
