Elizabeth Birch worked with us to helped us achieve the perfect wedding of our dreams. From the beautifully landscaped ceremony, photo, and reception spaces, to the outstanding food and service, there was no detail overlooked. Elizabeth helped us coordinate the entire wedding long-distance. I was in Florida, and the bride was in Chicago. But with her guidance, we were able to coordinate the local vendors needed to pull off a dream wedding.

Our wedding on November 2, 2025, at The Treasury was nothing short of spectacular. This venue is an absolute hidden gem in Michigan, and our guests were completely wowed by its beauty and amenities. From our first tour in February, Hayley set the bar incredibly high for the other venues we viewed. Once we booked, she and our amazing coordinator, Natalie, became incredible partners in our planning process. They were always available to address every question, concern, or idea with professional guidance and genuine care. What truly sets The Treasury apart is the impeccable service and the immense value included in their packages. It is clear that Hayley, Natalie, and the entire team are driven by passion rather than just a paycheck; they go above and beyond to ensure every detail is perfect. Our dollars went much further here than they would have elsewhere, without sacrificing an ounce of quality. I cannot say enough positive things about this venue and its catering. If you are planning a Michigan wedding and want a stress-free experience with a team that truly cares, book The Treasury now! We will certainly be considering and recommending them for future events.

We had the pleasure of having our wedding reception this past September 2025 at the Crofoot and could not have been happier with our decision! We spent lots of time checking different venues such as hotels and country clubs, but when we walked in, it felt perfect for us! The venue itself and history is its own talking point. There was plenty of room for our 200 guests with so much to look at and explore. We loved how there were bars available for our guests pretty much everywhere (upstairs, downstairs, by the dance floor, outside on the patio). Our favorite moment was seeing how the venue started to look the morning of our wedding (we got ready at the venue, also highly recommend as there is a private area upstairs for bridal/wedding party to get ready with lots of space and a pool table) to dropping our jaws in "awe" coming back prior to the reception. The transformation that this staff put together in the Crofoot in preparation for the reception was truly remarkable. We got and still get to this day so many comments about how beautiful and amazing the place looked. One of my favorite comments was that every room felt different with its own vibe and walking into the main hall area was like entering a page from Alice in Wonderland. We had the pleasure of working with Kristine and was even lucky enough to meet Blair the owner. They both are wonderful people and made sure our expectations were exceeded. Thank you again and please do not hesitate to have your wedding transformed into a magical one at the Crofoot!
