About This Vendor

The surrounding area of the Grand Belle was once part of a 300 acre apple orchard. The barn was used to wash, dry and process the apples to prepare them for retail sales. Around 1950, it was purchased by a retired Detroit mounted police officer who used the lower level of the barn to house his retired horse. In 1980, it was purchased by a real estate investor and was vacant for over 30 years. Finally in 2012, a dream was hatched when the current owners purchased the grounds with the desire to transform it into a world class wedding barn. Since then, The Grand Belle has been uniquely restored by master craftsmen and artists both inside and out, combining both original decor and modern conveniences, making it a beautiful locale for your wedding!

of the barn as it has been restored authentically and modernized where needed. We held the ceremony outside under the trees and the setting was wonderful. Dinner and dancing were great inside the barn under the barn lighting. The bonfire outside late evening was a bonus. Also, the bride and all the girls used the suite upstairs to get ready. It was an ideal space, away from everyone setting up, to have hair and make up done. Literally, nothing could have gone any better on the wedding day from the first moment we arrived to when we cleaned up and left. We LOVED it! Highly recommended.

of the original state including the huge, front door. They have new updated restrooms that keep the "barn look"down to the paper towel dispensers. I would describe this as Rustic Elegance. You litterly only need to decorate your tables, it's that beautiful on its own. Make sure to ask for the chandeliers! The owners are so easy to work with and they guide you through every step. Do not hesitate to make this your chose for your occasion. You will not be disappointed. Don't forget they have a lower level as well. I also want to say, the bartender, Cindy, was the best! We also hired one of the caterer' s from his approved list, Sherry's Catering. The food was fresh and delicious!

If you want to see a vendors true colors look at how they treat their brides during a pandemic!! We had to postpone due to COVID and they were so supportive! No hidden fees, hassle or anything! They made accommodations free of charge (added a tent for outdoor dining, let us make adjustments to guest count super late, spaced out ceremony seating, etc). I cannot say enough positive things about these people and their staff! They stayed the entire day and night to make sure everything ran smoothly. Kim and Mike gave us our dream wedding.

ight away. In the midst of all the planning, they were sure to answer all of our emails thoroughly and professionally. The owners gave us a bunch of suggestions regarding vendors and what previous weddings did in certain situations. Most of the suggestions we ended up using for our wedding. The day of our wedding was super beautiful and with The Grand Belle’s helpful staff, everything got done in time. We did not rent the downstairs and we do not regret it at all, there was absolutely no need for the extra space in our case. People were able to be outside with the photobooth and the bonfire. For the people who consider getting married at The Grand Belle, I would point out that the upstairs room is for the bridal party only, so groomsmen need to get ready somewhere else. The barn door itself will be closed all the time because of the AC which kind of divides the party in two. Also, if you have your ceremony on their lawn, we had our seats facing the street. This may be a turn off as we had a lawn care company begin to mow the property across the street from The Grand Belle. At the end of the day everything turned out to be awesome, and once the sun went down all the lights outside and the bonfire looked absolutely magical. We recommend this venue warmly to everyone.
