Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- Inspired by celebrated artist Irene Harsha Young, this hidden gem of a venue blends an approachable vintage charm with a cool, forward-thinking style. Just a few blocks from Lake Michigan, it feels like a stylish little secret tucked into downtown Charlevoix.
- Ceremonies shine in the light-filled modern Chapel, where you’ll find a thoughtful blend of historic architectural details and refreshingly contemporary style. Receptions follow in the sophisticated banquet hall, clad entirely in crisp white tones and illuminated by large chandeliers.
- What really stands out is how approachable (and affordable!) it is, with excellent in-house bar services, BYO vendor flexibility, and a planning process that’s clear and customizable from the start. We highly recommend taking advantage of their partner property, the Hotel Earl, for plush overnight lodgings and on-site shuttling!
