My two Fav Venues

Starry Night Barns

Imagine if you will...


You awoke in a comfortable rustic cabin, your coffee warms your hands as you gaze out the window.

A light fog drifts in over a breath taking view of rolling hills and enchanting forest.

It's your big day today and you don't feel rushed or frenzied as you are already onsite and know that every detail will be dealt with care. 

That's not all...

Later your guests will make their way Northwest of Traverse City. Following the curves and bends as M22 skirts along the glistening shoreline. They arrive to grand barn that's been thoughtfully renovated to it's historical glory yet has every modern convenience.

In awe of the surrounding beauty they settle in their seats awaiting your entrance. ​

​The best part?

• Freedom to choose own vendors
• Pet friendly

​Here's the deal:

There's no reason to rush your ceremony or your dinner as the venue is yours for the weekend. There's no time limits, just your day at your pace. With plenty of time to relax and reflect you can make many memories with loved ones. Any wedding at Starry Night Barn & Studio  would be talked about for years to come, truly unforgettable.
