Glensheen Mansion

We could not have possibly had a better wedding day, and that is thanks almost entirely to the fabulous staff at Glensheen. Emma helped us so much with booking, and Reggie is the best coordinator EVER! Their staff on the day was so professional, and everything went super smoothly because of all their hard work. Even though there were some hiccups along the way (Covid-19 uncertainties? Unexpected construction?) Emma and Reggie still managed to make our wedding day unbelievably beautiful. We could not be more grateful!

We had such an excellent experience working with both Reggie and Emma. From the start, both were incredibly helpful as we planned our dream wedding. We were so impressed by the attention to detail leading up to and night-of. Reggie and the Glensheen staff truly brought our vision to life. Our guests loved every second of the evening and we honestly couldn't have asked for a better planning experience or evening.

Emma and Reggie were both amazing. Getting married / wedding planning can be very stressful. Getting married during COVID, amidst date changes and ill family member (fluctuating guests lists) can make it even more stressful. Both Emma and Reggie were extremely flexible and supportive. The amount of detail they put into planning our day was more than we could’ve even imagined. Despite reduced staff due to COVID and COVID restrictions we were able to have our dream wedding. Reggie assisted on every step and I will forever be grateful. The setting was beautiful and the entire staff amazing. I couldn’t imagine having our wedding anywhere else. Julie Berosik

The incredible staff at Glensheen Mansion made our dream wedding come true! Everything was absolutely perfect and even better than what I ever imagined. Every staff member we encountered was incredibly friendly, professional, and helpful (especially Reggie & Emma --these two are amazing and make the world go round)! Things were especially stressful and trying during COVID, but the Glensheen staff took every precaution possible to make sure our wedding could safely happen. Our guests had plenty of space to distance from one another to explore the beautiful mansion, grounds, and enjoy a fire by the lake. At the very end of our wedding around midnight, a massive storm hit, and Emma came running with umbrellas for everyone to make it back to their cars safely. This staff literally has your back from the first day you start working with them until the very end! Thanks again for giving us a day we will remember for a lifetime!

We had the PERFECT wedding at Glensheen. Due to COVID, we delayed our large celebration until summer 2021. We were thrilled to find out the staff at Glensheen was able to coordinate a small ceremony for us! It was an intimate, outdoor, socially-distanced celebration. They took COVID precautions seriously but still made sure we had a beautiful day. In particular, the events manager Reggie made sure everything went according to plan. We cannot thank everyone at Glensheen enough - it was magical.

Our wedding at Glensheen was extraordinary - and not just because of the mansion and location itself, but because Glensheen's amazing Events Team allowed us to really get to spend the day/night celebrating our wedding with our loved ones. Glensheen's Event Operations Manager, Reggie, was extremely professional and her and her team made sure every aspect of our wedding, from the actual ceremony to dinner to the bonfire by Lake Superior, was running smoothly. The Amusement Room and Winter Garden were perfect for our ceremony and reception (the Winter Garden's marble floor makes an excellent dance floor, by the way). Our family and friends also really loved attending a wedding at such a unique and special venue and could not stop commenting on how wonderful the whole night went. Overall, it was a very magical evening and we could not be more thankful or grateful that we decided to have our wedding at Glensheen!

My wedding at the Glensheen was spectacular! My fiancé and I are from out of town and wanted to get married somewhere unique and beautiful. We were thrilled to learn the Glensheen was available on our date. Emma and Reggie made the process easy and were so accommodating. We are from out of town, and while I had previously visited, we wanted a tour to pick our place for the ceremony. Emma scheduled a virtual tour as we were unable to travel there. Reggie helped us plan the day and on the day of provided us with help to keep the ceremony running smoothly. Our times we had scheduled got a little mixed up and she was so understanding and sweet about it. I still can’t believe I got to get married in such a beautiful place. Our guests loved it and my pictures are beautiful. Worth every penny to get married here.

They were great to deal with - positive and energetic all the way and they were very willing to look at creative possibilities at the venue. Reggie is a peach! Our guests also loved the ability to tour the historic mansion as part of the wedding experience. The only bummer was the rain, but we made the indoor wedding happen very quickly and seamlessly.

We had our wedding October 5th and it was a day to remember. It rained all day, and the Glensheen staff did whatever they could to keep us happy. They deserve 5 stars! Unfortunately we cant say the same about the reception set up. We had our reception under the tent with siding, and as we walked into it we had mud up to our ankles. I did not realize when we paid a large amount of money for Glensheen that the tent was set up downhill and it would pick up so much rain flowing down through the grass into the tent, which turned to mud. We knew we could handle the rain, but we didn’t understand what the conditions of the tent were going to be when it happened. The guests have told us since that they wish they could have socialized more, but it was hard to move around the tent(especially for our older guests) and only a few people got over to sign our guest book. It was a bummer for us. This was a lesson learned, and I hope it will assist other couples when making decisions. A smaller wedding with the reception inside the beautiful mansion, or at an indoor area would have been a relief. As we look back it was more stressful than what we would have hoped for us and our guests. I understand not many brides have had our luck with rain and we all worked together(staff, family, friends, and guests) to make the best of it! Glensheen staff were great and did what they could which we really appreciated, but unfortunately the way it was set up we could not avoid the conditions. The beauty of the mansion itself and the tours were incredible, it was a true adventure!

Everyone at Glensheen was amazing to work with! The venue is gorgeous and has so much to offer both inside and out! Our guests particularly enjoyed all of the outdoor spaces we had for them, particularly the bonfire by the lake!! We worked with both Reggie and Emma throughout our wedding planning process. Both of these gals were very responsive and SO knowledgeable and helpful! They helped make everything so easy! Reggie was there on our wedding day and helped make sure everything went smoothly! You can tell she has a ton of experience with coordinating weddings! She was honestly and invaluable resource for us! The only thing I wish could have been different was that we weren't able to go to the venue until 2pm on our wedding day. I would have liked to use the bridal cottage/gardener's cottage as a getting ready space. The main reason I didn't give Glensheen a 5 star rating is that there were tours still going on when we arrived at the venue and started taking photos before the ceremony. There were a lot of random strangers taking pictures of us while our photographer was trying to photograph our bride and groom photos. We did expect some people to be around during the day since Glensheen is still a fully functioning museum, but I think we would have preferred a bit more privacy during the afternoon, especially for the cost of the venue. This was not an issue after 5 pm when wedding guests started arriving and the ceremony took place, so it was not the end of the world. Overall I'd highly recommend getting married at Glensheen! Everything turned out beautifully and every single member of the Glensheen staff was so kind and easy to work with!

I had dreamed of having a wedding at the Glensheen far before they were advertising for it. If you are looking for an outdoor venue with breathtaking views, there is no place better! One of the things I didn't realize was that when I booked the venue, I also got Reggie, the day of planner. This might seem like common knowledge to other people, but I had no idea how I was going to get everything coordinated on the day of, and could not have done it without her! She took all of the worries away. With 20+years of experience, she knows what to ask, what to look for, and what to help you prepare for. Many times I said to her, "Umm, I don't know, I've never done this before", to which she would laugh and help me through the process.

My husband and I got married at Glensheen over this past Labor Day weekend and we cannot sing enough praises for the venue and most importantly, those who work at Glensheen. My mother and I met Emma (who we toured the venue and booked with) the summer prior to the wedding and her joy and personality drew our hearts to this venue, and when I met Reggie (the onsite event coordinator), I knew we had made the right decision. With my husband and I both living in California and planning a destination wedding, Reggie literally helped calm so many of my nerves and stress. The grounds at Glensheen are beautiful and we were able to have our entire wedding of 90 people outdoors without the need of a tent and had the most wonderful evening. The entire staff the evening of was beyond helpful and I honestly do not have a complaint to make. If you are looking for a gorgeous venue with a spectacular team in Northern Minnesota, look no further than Glensheen : )

We had our wedding at Glensheen on September 28th, 2019! The venue was amazing and the staff was even better! They accommodated our needs in every way! My dad is disabled and the staff was amazing! They helped him get everywhere he needed to be and allowed him to us a golf cart to get around the estate. Our wedding party and family were not running around before the wedding cause everything was handled by the staff! Thank you Glensheen and staff for making our special day stress free!

The location and venue are absolutely stunning, but it's the staff that sets this venue apart. The staff at Glensheen truly goes above and beyond to help create a flawless location to hold your important day. My experience has been as a Events Designer/Florist and each time Reggie and her staff have been wonderful to work with. Their attention to detail and "team" mentality is refreshing in an industry where everyone seems to be looking for the best review or most social media tag--Reggie and her team show up to make dreams come true and view vendors as their partners in that process. You'll find that your day runs more smoothly because of this and your memories will be of the RIGHT things. All the best as you move forward in the planning process!

We got married at Glensheen in early June, 2019. We both had different visions for our wedding and had looked at almost all of the venues in Duluth but they were not quite what we both envisioned our wedding to be (small, outdoorsy, easily accessible for family, a little less-traditional, etc). I grew up in Duluth and had toured Glensheen several times and my dad works at UMD and has done work around the estate, but I had never thought of it as our wedding venue until we toured again when searching for a wedding venue. The venue and estate has so many benefits it met what we both envisioned for our wedding day! The price is comparable to the other venues in Duluth and you can choose your own caterer (one of our preferences as the one thing we knew was we wanted local, Duluth Grill and a keg of Bent Paddle)! We worked with both Emma and Reggie, who were quick to respond to questions and were patient with our busy schedules. We hand made many of our decorations and Reggie and the staff were very helpful and set it up the day of so we/family members did not have to worry about it. I tried to offer help and they took care of it all. We were unbelievably lucky and had a beautiful day in June. We were able to have our our-door wedding near the edge of Lake Superior without any weather surprises! We had a blast getting ready and spending time in he Gardner's cottage prior to the ceremony first with bridesmaids only followed by the whole wedding party. To get away and have a private moment to ourselves we had our "first paddle" in Tisher Creek with a Bent Paddle in hand. Not only will you not regret having your wedding at Glensheen, your guests will enjoy the all of the other fun things to do in Duluth as well!

Ask anyone who was there on July 7th, 2019 and they will tell you it was the most perfect wedding. I am from Houston, TX and my wife is from Northern MN which is why we decided on Duluth. I've been to Texas-sized weddings costing hundreds of thousands of dollars that pale in comparison to our Glensheen wedding, and ours was a fraction of the cost. The thing about Glensheen is you don't need to do much, it's essentially a turnkey wedding operation, everything is already in place. They've got clearly marked pathways, grounds staff, a wedding planner, beautifully decorated grounds, picturesque scenery, bonfire, lighting, tables, chairs and the list goes on. These are all included services! The winter garden, where we chose to have the reception, is already beautifully decorated and we only needed to add centerpieces to the tables. I've talked with other married couples about this stuff and they are shocked all of this was provided by the venue, no wonder their weddings were so expensive. Think about it, Glensheen is a place that people spend their hard-earned money to go tour the property, obviously it is well maintained and gorgeous or they'd have no visitors. We opted to have the ceremony down by the lake which was perfect for our guest size of around 110. I will say, we were blessed with great weather that day - clear blue skies and temps in the 70s. I brought a band from Texas who played on the patio and it kept things at a nice volume. People that wanted to dance could hang by the stage and those that wanted to mingle could do so down on the lawn or by the bonfire. There was something for everyone. As with any great organization, their success can be attributed to a great employees. I had narrowed down to three venues in Duluth and before visiting a single place, Glensheen stood out as the clear favorite because of the way I was treated by their staff member, Emma D. The thing about Emma is you can tell she's not just trying to sell you on something. Her authenticity shines through and her kindness is infectious. I could tell right away that she loves her job and believes in the Glensheen experience. It all makes sense now! Don't even think twice about booking your wedding here. There's not a better option in the WORLD. I will give you 110 names of people from July 7th that will corroborate that statement. Wishing you the best Glensheen Wedding! Max Flinn PS As I am writing this, there is a video of Brittney and I posted to this page with the song we wrote for one another! Check it out.

If you are thinking of having your wedding at the Glensheen, stop thinking & DO IT! Having our wedding day at the Glensheen Mansion was an absolute DREAM COME TRUE! The mansion is EPIC, words do not do it justice! It's truly an unforgettable experience not just for you, but for your guests too! Every part of the mansion and the grounds is breathtaking and so elegant. We got married on the Juliet Terrace, which was such a cool experience having all of our friends and family surrounding us and some looking up at us on the terrace and being able to look out at the beautiful lake, seriously there is nothing like it! Our reception was in a tent on the Cottage Lawn and at first we were a bit nervous about how the tent would look, and the slant of the ground but the tent was GORGEOUS and the slant was barely noticeable. We had a huge dance party and the dance floor was full all night long and no one once complained about the slant of the grounds. Reggie and her team were fantastic to work with and really knew what they were doing. We felt in such good hands with them, which relieved so much stress. It really was the BEST DAY EVER and our friends and family still haven't stopped talking about it!

We had a simple 50 person wedding, no wedding party... but got the back terrace. It was so worth it! Reggie and her team made planning very fun, and always kept us caffeinated with their Keurig (more important than you would imagine). Even with some rain on our rehearsal day, we still got all the info we needed and had a flawless execution. We seemed to have 3 or 4 people who would randomly would send us emails with a seeming abundance of paperwork to do. But that has more to do with them being a UofM property, and once you get through that, its all good from there.

If you are looking for a magical venue for your wedding and reception, look no further! From the moment you step onto the estate you can feel how special your wedding will be. Working with the staff to plan your wedding is a breeze. They are attentive, helpful and provide great suggestions and ideas to make it your day. We could not have found a better venue to celebrate our love with our family and friends!

My wedding at the Glensheen was wonderful, despite being rained out the whole staff quickly moved us to our backup location. Reggie was great to work with and everyone was helpful and very nice. They set up a bonfire for us and my family enjoyed hanging out.

We had a beautiful outdoor ceremony on the balcony and a tented reception. This is an absolutely beautiful venue that our guests were very impressed by. We definitely picked the right venue for our wedding day!

We had our wedding reception here 4th of July weekend, and it was the most magical venue! We planned our entire wedding from Washington, DC - and it was so easy working with the events team. They answered all my questions in a timely manner and dealt with set up and vendors on the day of, so I didn't have to worry about a thing! Most of our guests were from out of town, and everyone was really impressed with the house tours, gardens, bonfire and the overall feel of the venue - it was definitely a unique experience that we were able to share with everyone. I would HIGHLY recommend Glensheen as a wedding and reception venue for anyone looking for classic yet unique vibe right on Lake Superior. It was truly a day we will never forget and look forward to visiting again on our anniversary!

Glensheen is quite honestly a fairy tale wedding venue. Staff is awesome, always there to answer questions, and helped put on the best wedding. It is pricey, but is totally worth the product. Could not have asked for a better wedding, the whole place is timeley and eclectic looking if that’s what you’re looking for. The back balcony is beautiful and guests get to do a tour of the mansion after the wedding. Reggie and Emma are both great and make sure your day is priority. Highly recommend getting married here!

We just celebrated our daughter’s magical wedding to her beloved last weekend with their closest 250 family and friends at the most special historical place in Minnesota- Glensheen. Aside from the beauty of the Mansion, inside and out- There is the majesty of the lady of the Lake- Superior! The staff of Glensheen took care of everything and then there are the UMD student staff on hand to tell you every detail of the history of this exciting 110 year most amazing property! There isn’t another venue offering such an amazing space and nature’s beauty all in one place.

My husband and I had our reception here last Saturday and from start to finish, couldn't have had a better experience. The event director was super easy to communicate with and transparent during the booking process. In the months leading up to our wedding day, they would check in and were always available for any questions we had. On the day of, they took care of all the set up for us. When we arrived, everything was done and looked beautiful. During our reception, staff was incredibly attentive and always asking how we were doing and if we needed anything. If we asked them a question, they would get on their headset and find us an answer quickly. Just an example of how amazing this staff was: The florist misplaced my toss bouquet and a few of the staff grabbed extra flowers and created a new toss bouquet for me in a matter of minutes. I would highly recommend Glensheen because not only is it a beautiful venue, it was the most stress-free part of wedding planning.

We held our ceremony and reception at Glensheen and couldn't have been happier with how the day went. The coordination of the dj/caterer/bar/florist was excellent, the help setting up all the decorations/centerpieces took a lot of pressure off our family and they were very accommodating to our guests, even those with special needs. We got so many complements from our guests about how great a choice the venue was.

It has been a month since we got married at Glensheen but we will treasure our memories of the ceremony for ever. A big shout out to Ellie, Emma and Reggie for making our big day so special! They helped us from day one and were on top of things especially when both the and bride and the groom live in two different timezones. Thank you so much for making our wedding day so special and giving us and our friends and families an experience to remember for life.

We loved all the staff and wedding co-coordinators we worked with. The grounds are fantastic, there is a lot to see for the guests and plenty for them to do. Everything was very well organized. If I did it all over again I would not hesitate to use Glensheen.

Last weekend, we had our wedding at Glensheen Mansion. It was the best day of our life! Glensheen's staff was a joy to work with throughout the process - they let us pick our ceremony and social hours site on the property - we had our ceremony on the South Lawn and cocktail hour on the terrace of the mansion then dinner and dancing in a tent on the property. We loved it! The main event manager was out on medical leave and the communication and coordination was seamless between her and the rest of the staff. All of our guests (headcount of 110) loved the venue and having the ability to walk the property and get a tour. We had guests from all over the country - VA, DE, FL, TN, NYC, etc and everyone commented on how beautiful it is. We lucked out and had a beautiful day weather wise although it was hot and the staff did everything in their control to keep us comfortable with the heat. This is hands down the best venue in Duluth and the best venue in MN. Thank you Glensheen for making our day so perfect! Other vendors we used to make the day perfect was Duluth Grill for catering and Blackwoods for the bar! Highly recommend that combo!

Had a beautiful mid July wedding at the estate! Such a gorgeous venue and wonderful people to work with. Glensheen is the perfect place for a wedding venue because you get both the beauty of Lake Superior and the elegance and charm of a historical mansion. As a former tour guide, I knew how amazing weddings at Glensheen could be. Many thanks to Reggie Christensen, Emma Deaner, and Ellie Gerst! All three of these ladies worked their tails off to make sure our wedding day was as special as could be! I could not be happier to say I got married at Glensheen. They truly made my wedding dreams come true! Jennifer & Nathan

We just had our reception here. It was lovely and the staff was very helpful. It is a magnificent piece of history that was the ideal backdrop to our wedding. Regina and Emma were very helpful and pleasant. The guests also told us they enjoyed their tour of the house, which I recommend even if you're not holding an event.

My husband and I got married at Glensheen on September 16th, 2017. I could not have asked for a more perfect day. Reggie and her staff calmed all my fears as far as the weather and where we were going to have our ceremony. She really knows what she is doing. I HIGHLY recommend this site for your wedding. Not to mention the free tour your guests will receive once your ceremony is over, my guests were WOWED by this and thought that it was the coolest thing ever. Thank you Reggie for helping me accomplish my dream wedding.

My now husband and I have been visiting Glensheen every year since we took our first trip there when we first started dating, going on 6 yrs! We had our wedding there on a Friday at the end of June 2017 and it was perfect! We worked with reggie at first and she unfortunately couldn’t be there for our big day but Emma made sure she knew what we wanted and she did not miss a beat. All of the staff were professional and helpful. The grounds are absolutely beautiful and the view of Lake Superior was breathtaking! I know price is always a concern but I was very pleased with the wedding packages. I would highly recommend this gorgeous venue

We had our wedding rehearsal dinner at the glensheen and we couldn't be more thrilled with how smoothly everything turned out! We didn't have to lift a finger and it gave us a peace of mind to have the staff there to help with everything and make the guests, especially those from out of town, enjoy Duluth's finest museum and atmosphere. The glensheen staff was so accommodating and we can't thank the staff, especially Reggie, for all the wonderful dedication to making our wedding weekend best it could possibly be! Duluth's finest! Thank you.

The Glensheen Mansion is the ultimate venue. You have an amazing grounds to work with and the mansion is basically pre-decorated and it is beautiful. The staff are amazing to work with, especially the event coordinator Regina. She knows everyone in the area and she made great recommendations. The scenery is beautiful and you are right on the lake which is breathtaking. I couple write all day about how great of an experience we had having our wedding at Glensheen. They provided us with our perfect wedding day and I truely mean that 100%

There aren't enough words to describe how perfect Glensheen was for our wedding reception! Reggie and Emma were incredibly helpful and supportive, the gardens were stunning, and the mansion is hard to beat! The cocktail hour on the terrace was a highlight for our guests -- people were able to tour the mansion, mingle amongst the summery blooms, and wander down to our favorite lake. Glensheen was the most perfect setting for the most perfect day. My husband and I HIGHLY recommend reserving Glensheen for your special day, too.

Glensheen was the perfect place for our wedding this past summer. It was a wonderful day right alongside our favorite lake. We had the ceremony right on the point where Tischer Creek meets Lake Superior, which even allowed for us to take a first rowboat ride in the creek. Reggie was incredibly helpful and accommodating with all the planning and details. The rest of the Glensheen staff that day helped with anything we needed and we appreciated their attention to detail in helping set up and accommodate our guests. Lake Superior is a special place, and Glensheen is one of the few places in Duluth to get married on its shore.

Gorgeous venue - completely unique and stunning for any wedding. Reggie and her staff were so helpful when we ran out of time to get all of our decor set up! All of our guests were wowed by this venue, and several of them told me that our wedding was the most relaxing one they're ever been to with scenic Lake Superior in the background, benches everywhere to relax on, and blooming flowers everywhere. I highly recommend Glensheen and can't wait to go back for more fun tours!

I don't think there could be a more magical setting than Glensheen and I can't imagine finer people to work with than Reggie, Emma, and all of the wonderful staff they have. Beautiful, easy to work with and so much attention to detail. Thank you, Glensheen for making our day unforgettable!

We just had our wedding on august 26th. It rained all day long, and we were unsure of how the rain would affect everything. After our ceremony, we arrived at gleensheen and Reggie had everything under control. Decorations were getting put up and all her staff was working really hard. She had clear umbrellas ready for us to use for our pictures. We had a blast! Throughout the night staff would stop to check in to make sure everything was still going good. They were all so friendly. Close to everything ending they stated packing everything, and i didnt have to worry about a thing. My wedding was amazing and I couldn't have asked for a better place to have it.

We had our ceremony and reception at the Glensheen Mansion on a Friday at the end of June. It was amazing! We were so pleased with how everything turned out, it was perfect! We worked with Emma mostly to plan all of the details, and she was excellent. On the day of the wedding, we were really impressed with how many staff members were at Glensheen just to help take care of our wedding. Their service was awesome! We had the ceremony on the balcony and the reception downstairs in the Winter Garden, with our food served buffet style in the billiard/family room next door. Our family and friends loved the venue! They were so impressed, and it was really fun to be able to move between the balcony, winter garden, or walk the grounds. The bonfire near Lake Superior towards the end of the night was also a big hit with the guests. Everything went perfectly, and we are so grateful to the Glensheen staff for making everything so special for us. We would highly recommend this venue to anyone, you won't be disappointed!

We married on July 15th at Glensheen. It was stunning! We are so happy we went with this venue, not only was the setting gorgeous but we had a wonderful experience! Reggie was extremely helpful and made our day come together as we had imagined. The staff was so great about making sure everything was set-up perfectly. My husband accidentally left his wedding gift there and the staff kept it safe until we were able to return to Duluth. We can't say enough good things about Reggie and the Glensheen staff!

Everything was amazing on our big day!! Reggie and the whole staff makes your wedding day a breeze. Thank you Glensheen staff.

Our daughter and her husband got married last September, Labor Day weekend 2016 at the Glensheen. We met and worked with Reggie and her staff for over a year off and on. Our daughter and son-in-law were able to share in the costs of the tent from wedding the night before. The Glensheen Staff and Northland Special Events also worked well together since it rained on the previous nights wedding and made the grass under the tent pretty wet. They worked at getting it usable for our wedding and added additional flooring. The weather was threatening to change the plans of an outdoor wedding to an inside the mansion wedding but it held off until after the wedding and the cocktail hour. The cocktail hour was held inside in the Winter room because of the weather and that was great. People self-toured the mansion with staff manning rooms to answer questions. All the guests were encouraged to get to the tent and were actually under the tent for the dinner when the deluge of rain finally came. The grounds were beautiful and people walked around before and after the wedding. The photographer had a huge area to work with. All the staff was on top of their game that day. They worked extremely hard to make the wedding one to remember! The Blackwoods Restaurant did the catering and the food was great. However, I would be sure and use their dishes, do not do what we did which was bring vintage dishes. The contact person said they would wash them and we could pick them up the next day. Blackwoods didn't follow through with that promise.

About a year ago I decided I wanted to propose to my girlfriend at the Glensheen Mansion on the Juliet Balcony. Regina is absolutely amazing and the Mansion is lucky to have her as a staff member. She helped me plan out and set up the perfect proposal. She also worked with the photographer to make sure everything was right and in place for her to capture me doing it "on film." Working with her was as easy as it gets for both myself and the photographer, she goes above and beyond in every aspect. She even greeted us afterwards with a bottle of champagne and shared a toast with us. After my proposal she took the time to tour the grounds with us and show us everything and how it would all work, because we plan to also get married there. We immediately made preparations to book the Mansion for our wedding and reception. The grounds were beautiful, the mansion was beautiful and the staff were courteous and very helpful. I really couldn't of asked for a better experience and anxiously await working with her again for our wedding. If you are interested in booking the mansion for you wedding, rest assured, you are making the right choice. Thank you again for making that happen Regina!

Glensheen provided a picture-perfect location for our daughter and son-in-law's wedding in mid-September. The estate grounds are beautiful and well maintained, creating a perfect backdrop for a wedding celebration. Guests really enjoyed the opportunity to tour the mansion and the grounds, and we enjoyed the fact that we were able to host the wedding, reception and dance in one lovely location. The ceremony and reception were held on the terrace, the dinner in a tent, and the dance in the winter garden room. Each location worked perfectly for us. Guests also enjoyed the bonfire that Glensheen staff tended on the shore of Lake Superior! Reggie and her staff are the consummate professionals, and could not have been more helpful, friendly and accommodating. Our initial concern about the cost of the venue was completely put to rest by observing how hard Reggie and her staff worked to make our event a success! We highly recommend Glensheen as a wedding venue, and we cannot say enough good things about Reggie and her exceptional staff!

Our wedding was early September at Glensheen and it was a FAIRYTALE!! The venue is more than any bride could ever ask for. We also had our reception on the ground under a tent and being able to have the whole wedding in one location was great. The grounds are so large guests can roam freely and site see and get a free tour of the mansion. Cocktail hour on the terrace is one for the books as well. We have got nothing but compliments. Reggie was great to work with and very helpful for any questions we had along the way. Although the rental package is quite pricey it is worth it. We had Martin, Glensheen's sound pro, make sure that all the mice worked and that was a great piece of mind to have. I only wish I could have been a guest at my own wedding!

Reggie and Ashley did such an amazing job answering our questions, taking care of things, and dealing with all of our vendors! Even when the rain came and we needed to move our ceremony indoors with no time to rehearse, they kept calm and explained everything to us. Definitely would recommend this beautiful place and wonderful staff!

Our wedding and reception was held at the Glensheen Mansion and it was beautiful! The staff and coordinators addressed any concerns as the came up immediately and they worked well with all of our vendors. The weather worked in our favor, so our guests were able to truly enjoy the entire venue and property. The s'mores on the beach front was a beautiful addition. The only problem we experienced was the unethical practices by one of the recommended vendors (Blackwoods). That was the ONLY issue! This is by far the most amazing, organized and detail oriented venue. I will recommend them for ANYONE looking for a fairy-tail wedding!

Glensheen's historic setting was beautiful and stunning for our ceremony and reception. The staff is exceptional and I would highly recommend this venue for any bride who is going for a classy wedding theme.

The Glensheen is an absolutely breathtaking venue to be married and the staff is very friendly and helpful. They have their own event coordinator, her fee is included in the rental cost, which made planning a mini destination wedding that much easier. They are very experienced and can help you every step of the way. The best part was that we were able to drop off all the decorations for the wedding the night before and the staff took care of all of the set-up and Reggie (the event coordinator) was there to make sure that everything went smoothly during the day. All our guests also enjoyed the tours of the mansion following our ceremony. Would highly recommend the Glensheen Mansion for a beautiful wedding. They also do have room inside for the ceremony in case of inclement weather.

I selected Glensheen because of it's elegance and charm and was not disappointed. Plenty of ambiance to go around. All of our guests commented on how beautiful the location was and they were right. The staff was super and I don't have a thing to complain about. I highly recommend using Glensheen as a location for a ceremony & reception.

Glensheen, and Reggie, made my wedding the best day of my life, thus far. Between planning to the day of she catered to everyone's needs and the day wouldn't have been the same without her. Thank you so much!!!

We absolutely loved the location for the wedding, we hard a little scare on the weather and it almost rained. Luckily it cleared up and we were able to get married on the terrace which was perfect. The only down side is the location for the reception is a bit cramped, otherwise Glensheen is perfect.

Absolutely LOVED my wedding at the Glensheen. The staff makes the day go PERFECTLY and you cannot ask for a better background!
