The English Inn

ams. Of course it was also convenient that they have rooms on site so we could get ready right there and guests didn't have to travel after the reception. And everyone got to have breakfast together the next morning. We received so many compliments from guests all night and days later. We can't wait to go back to celebrate our anniversary.

elicious. We had so many guests raving about their experience and how lovely their weekend was. The staff was professional and attentive right from the beginning. They were on top of every detail which helped us relax and enjoy our day. Thank you so very much Eric, Adrianna and your team! We highly recommend The English Inn for any event!

as outstanding. Adriana, our wedding coordinator, was not only very experienced and organized, but extremely pleasant to work with to build a ceremony and reception that fit our needs. We looked at multiple bakeries and the English Inn’s Pastry Chef options surpassed the competition (chocolate cake with raspberry filling and a tiramisu groom’s cake). Finally, we stayed onsite at the Inn the weekend of the wedding. Being able to get ready onsite and then unwind after the wedding at the pub with friends and family made the weekend. Our day felt like perfection at the English Inn. The only call-out I have is book the venue and rooms early. We booked one year out and only one Sunday was available for the three weekend options we were considering. No Saturdays remained.

bout the food, drink, cake and enjoyed the Inn and grounds. I planned my wedding from out of state (military) and Adriana, our coordinator was always so responsive to calls/emails. It made wedding planning a breeze. It truly was the perfect day.

so beautiful for the ceremony and pictures. It was so nice to have the ceremony and reception all in one spot. It’s just the ideal spot for a wedding!

sporadic questions whenever I needed. We received so many compliments on how beautiful the venue was, how much everyone enjoyed the food, and how the service and staff was excellent. My bridal party got ready in the cottages on site, which was extremely helpful and fun for everyone! The Essex is a perfect spot for this. We loved everything about having our wedding at the English Inn!!

care of - like royalty! Rebecca personally maintained contact with me ensuring our happiness; she and her banquet team were spectacular and professional in every possible way. Our guests raved about the food, as the meal was phenomenal!!! Every aspect of the planning process, rehearsal, rehearsal dinner, ceremony, reception and throughout the wedding day and our nights stay was perfection. It will be a day/experience we will always remember fondly, with gratitude to English Inn staff. Adriana, the special events organizer, was a joy to work with. She made the planning and execution of our event a pleasant and joyful experience. The English Inn is blessed to have her on staff. She is an incredible representative of the English Inn and the event services they offer. If I could I would give them a 10 star rating!!! I highly recommend you choose the English Inn for your special occasion!

her staff were extremely acomedating, even with my very non-traditional order of events they made everything easy and were happy to do anything I asked for. Overall, I loved working with them and would definitely recommend it as a wedding venue to anyone who can afford it, because it is well worth it!

on’t have a room included in the packages for the bridesmaids and groomsmen to get ready in. They were very upfront and made the ceremony and reception a dream come true even in the dead of winter! We got many compliments on how beautiful the venue was!

loved that everything we needed was at the venue and no travel was necessary the day of. Highly recommend.

arching in. The whole feel of the English Inn was so dreamy and unique its hard not to fall in love. Some of my favorite aspects include: 1. The rooms! There are 20 rooms on site so we were able to have all of our immediate family and the wedding party stay together both Friday and Saturday nights and it was so nice not having travel for the weekend and being all together. The rooms are also STUNNING. The variety of rooms to stay in was so much fun too. The main house/restaurant has 8 rooms that are decorated to resemble the early 20th century English decor and every little detail is just perfect (we put the girls of the bridal party here). There is another house with 5 beautiful rooms where we put the men of the bridal party. There is another adorable house down by the river and 8 other cottages where we put our immediate family. That are all newer and perfect. They also have coffee delivery to your door in the morning and a delicious English breakfast served in the morning with the most attentive staff! 2. The food! How they managed to make 200 absolutely perfect filets is still puzzling to our family and friends. Trust me, they know what they're doing. We also got our cake through them which was so beautiful and delicious. We went with a strawberry cake with a vanilla buttercream frosting - big hit! 3. The staff! The event planner, Adriana, is one of the most friendly, helpful, and organized people I have ever met. She really made the process so much better and was there the whole day setting up until the cake was served. She was also SO helpful for the many months leading up to the wedding. The rest of the staff was also very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful as well! 4. The grounds! So beautiful, right on the Grand River and Lovely Landscaping.

r chef impressed with delicious food that was so pretty to look at AND tasty to eat! The cocktail hour was pleasant & spacious with three beautifully furnished sitting rooms while we took pictures. The A/C was just right on the hottest day of summer. The professional staff alone was so kind to work with from the attentive servers who served us water outside when it was 99°, the sweet, prompt & professional wedding coordinator (Adriana) to the wonderful owner (Eric). We also had our gorgeous cake done by their baker and our cake was delicious & elegantly done! They will cut and serve your cake with coffee! Everything was so beautiful & perfect, the timing of a hot dinner, and the charm. We barely had to decorate since the place is so pretty on its own and speaks for itself; every penny was WORTH IT! So many indoor/outdoor ceremony options! They include alot which was helpful (linen, dishes, salt & pepper, etc) I would go back for any event. We stayed in the croquet cottages and they are great! Newly built and fresh and clean. Great traditional English breakfast served in the morning with your stay. They have rooms available at different price ranges. No matter what, you won't be disappointed. It sits along the Grand River so bring bug spray but they spray twice weekly. We loved our complimentary menu & cake tasting! It's no wonder they are award winning, truly!! We already have our anniversary night booked for next summer! The staff lit our taper candles and even helped us clean up! Everyone was so kind!!! It really is an experience. They really do want the best for you & take great care of you! Alicia & Alex 6/17/18

can hold 200 people and we had 130 which I think is ideal. Also, they increased our cost per person after we signed the contract because it was during their yearly review. We felt they should've honored the price given to us at the time we signed the contract. Lastly, one of the bartenders was drinking while working and was very unprofessional to some of our guests.

to make sure everything was perfect for our special day. We took advantage of renting the cottages for family and friends, and everyone loved the accommodations. I stayed in The Ivy Cottage the night before our wedding and that evening. It was beautiful, and the perfect amount of space for myself, 4 bridesmaids, and 2 flower girls to get their hair and makeup done before the ceremony. The grounds are absolutely beautiful and we were able to take some pictures before and after our ceremony. Our reception took place in the Medovue Hall and there was plenty of room for the 95 people we had attend. The staff was very friendly and accommodating, and the food was out of this world. We had so many compliments that the food was the best they have ever had at a wedding reception. Overall, I don’t think our experience could have been any better! We plan to stay their each year around our anniversary.

ur rehearsal dinner in the main house, and it was delicious and so convenient! Amber was an absolute pleasure to work with, and made the weekend feel easy and relaxed! Would get married here all over again!!

nd family staying on site for two nights for the rehearsal dinner and the wedding. The rooms are beautiful and the staff is fabulous. They were extremely accommodating before the wedding during planning and during with our many questions and requests. Adriana helped us plan the reception and she is fantastic to work with. Our guests have only had positive comments and they LOVE the food and so do we. Cannot wait to go back!

, and nice. All of the staff here were wonderful and very accommodating. Location: The Inn and reception hall are beautifully designed and the grounds are breathtaking. As soon as my husband and I saw the inn in person for the first time, we knew it was exactly what we were looking for for our wedding venue. All of our wedding guests commented on how beautiful the setting was and called it an "oasis" in Michigan. Food: I love food and I can't emphasize enough - everything served here is amazing. We had the filet mignon and cornish game hen as our entree options and got great feedback from our guests. Rooms: I stayed at the Inn the night before our wedding as well as the night of and the rooms are large and clean. We stayed in the Dove Cottage and it has a jacuzzi tub, fireplace, king size bed and cute deck overlooking the ceremony site. My husband and I plan to make it a tradition to come back and celebrate our anniversary here on a regular basis.

nd helpful from the very beginning until the end. Anything that we missed, she thought of. Rebecca was in charge of our cocktail hour and our reception, and she also was fantastic. She would check in and make sure everything was going well and kept everything moving. All of the staff was very helpful and accommodating and I can't say enough about the beautiful facilities.

exceptional and was very supportive throughout the whole experience, always quick with email and phone responses when ever we had questions. We also stayed two nights at the inn, the night before and of our wedding, it is a very relaxing atmosphere, and the food is amazing. It definitely helped decrease overall stress levels of our big day!
