These beautiful venues are scattered across the state offering everything from intimate settings to huge spaces for extra large parties.
When booking barn venues in Michigan, weather is an important factor to keep in mind. While many are equipped with cooling and heating, that may not be the case for every location so double-check. You'll also want to inquire about amenities and facilities, particularly if it's a more rustic setting. As usual, also discuss the reception venue's policy regarding decorations, vendors, rentals and other services, and schedule a walk-through so you can see the site in person.
