The English Inn

ed answer all of our questions from the day we booked our date (over a year in advance!) up to our wedding day. She was extremely kind, helpful, and answered all our emails in a timely manner. Next, the venue is absolutely stunning at any time of the year (and I know because we visited multiple times!). There were so many spots for pictures around the property with the bridal party and for photos of just me and my husband. Finally, the waitstaff were incredible the whole evening! As soon as the ceremony was over, waitstaff came down to the Pergola to bring the bridal party cold glasses of water since it was a hot day in July. The food was exquisite and I got so many compliments on 1) how good the food was, and 2) how fun the waitstaff were. It was the perfect day, and we can't wait to go back and visit for future anniversaries. Thank you Adriana and the English Inn!!

done. The staff at the Inn is absolutely top notch, making sure my guests had full drinks and full bellies. I wouldn’t have changed a thing, and am so happy we went with the English inn for our small wedding. Having the ceremony and dinner in one place really made it easy for our guests to relax. We were able to stay well within our budget and the whole day was absolutely perfect!

tient with my never ending questions I had while planning a wedding during COVID-19. My husband and I, along with our guests, had a wonderful time. Everyone raved about the food (we went with the duck) and the beauty of the location. I appreciated the flexibility of the staff during the many changes that came up with planning due to COVID. We chose 4 out of 5 stars for 3 reasons: (1) we were disappointed to find out at our reception that craft beer wasn’t actually included like we thought with our bar package when we stated from the beginning how that was important to us; (2) despite knowing for some time that the reception had to be moved outdoors for COVID compliance, we weren’t told a tent was recommended until 3 weeks prior and that entire cost was our responsibility; and (3) our wedding package stated we would have a day-of coordinator which was critical for us and we interpreted that to mean someone would serve as “point” during the day’s events to keep things running smoothly however that was not the case. We didn’t see our day-of coordinator until she was leaving to go home for the day (after the food was served at the reception). Despite what may have been miscommunications or misinterpretations, we still recommend the English Inn and are excited to return for our 1 year anniversary.

fairytale and I cannot thank her enough! She was so helpful, quick with responding back to every little question that I had (and I had a lot), and she made the day ran so smoothly in every regard! We booked the rooms upstairs and they were beautiful! We had the Thames room for the wedding and it was picturesque. The food was AMAZING and the scenery was so quaint, beautiful, and a perfect fairytale. Everyone working there was kind, professional, and so accommodating and I would recommend the English Inn for any event you are planning!

expectations. The staff is so incredibly helpful, and the delivery of drinks/meals was so seamless. I had so many compliments after our wedding about the beautiful venue, and how prompt the staff was. The whole ceremony and reception was perfectly timed and planned out, largely thanks to our coordinator Adriana. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day!

he food was delicious. Cooked to perfection and Service was fabulous.

ccommodating. The staff there are super professional. The food is AMAZING and if you can get a room there it makes for the perfect wedding!

experience from start to finish! We loved that family could stay on site and were able to spend the entire weekend together! We also can’t wait to come back to visit in the near future for anniversaries! The English Inn is a truly magical place you can only understand once you experience it’s beauty in person. It was such a perfect venue!!!

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!

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.

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.
