/

Finding your dream wedding venue can be super challenging. And if you’re anything like me and don’t want a typical ballroom wedding, finding a unique, outdoor wedding venue can add an extra level of difficulty. On top of all that, if you live in Southeast Michigan and you’ve decided to keep your wedding local, your options are extremely limited. That’s actually something I can’t quite figure out. There seems to be an untapped market in this area. Any entrepreneurs reading this, you’re welcome. So that brings me to this list which I’ve carefully researched and crafted for you. Because your wedding venue should make you feel giddy as hell.

In no particular order, here’s my round up of 8 unique, outdoor wedding venues in Southeast Michigan:
