Hoping to plan a local Ann Arbor wedding and don’t know where to begin? Picking the perfect site, location, and venue is critical to the success of each bride’s big day. The task of finding the perfect venue can be a bit overwhelming at first. However, Twofoot Creative would love to help take the stress away from you for a minute and would like to highlight just a handful of unique Ann Arbor venues.
The Ann Arbor Farmers Market is located in the Kerry Town District of Ann Arbor. This can be an unconventional wedding venue, but has the perfect downtown community vibe for a relaxed and beautiful Ann Arbor wedding. Dancing the night away under the stars and streetlights will be the perfect way to end your special day.
The barn at Cobblestone Farms is a three story oak timber frame barn that accommodates up to 220 guests. The facility includes 3, 200 square feet of rental space, a kitchen and restrooms. The Cobblestone Farm is a great way for the past history of the city in combination with the present day to make your day one you’ll never forget. There is also an area outside the barn that is perfect for cocktail hour and an outdoor ceremony, as well as a farm house that is located right next store to the barn.
The Ann Arbor City Club is a beautiful estate that’s rich in tradition and history. With the estate you’ll have complete access to the beautiful gardens, patio, and the historic home. The private setting will definitely be a day you and your guests will cherish. The home was built in the late 1800′s as a spacious elegant home. The house and grounds are now maintained as a community resource with changing art displays and intricate gardens.
Island Park is a river park that contains two picnic shelters, a Greek Revival shelter, play areas, and picnic tables. There are paths to the island that your guests can access and it also connects to Fuller Park. This could be a great venue for a relaxed reception or ceremony. Something else to consider would be having a rehearsal dinner here the night before your wedding. Island Park is located towards the northern part of Ann Arbor off of Island Road.
Teacup Wedding Country House is one of Ann Arbor’s small wedding venues and a hidden secret. Are you a bride that wants an intimate and planned wedding that’s ready to go? The Teacup house could be just what you’re looking for. This venue takes you back to the beautiful simple time in life when the wedding ceremony that united two people in love was the focus of the wedding. Weddings can take place outdoors in the Garden, inside the Chapel, or even in the parlor. This venue is located off of Plymouth road in Ann Arbor.
