Our wedding at the Millhaven was an absolute DREAM! We felt supported throughout the entire planning process from the day we toured the venue until the very end of our wedding day. Not only is it the most beautiful venue to host a wedding, but Jenn and her team have a knack for making our vision come to life!! They made sure that every detail was just perfect and that no one had to worry about a thing. We could not recommend the Millhaven enough, it was the perfect backdrop for our big day!

Our wedding at The Millhaven was truly a dream come true! We utilized their full planning team, and they were absolutely amazing to work with. They met with us almost monthly leading up to our big day, ensuring every detail was thoughtfully planned and perfectly executed. It was such a relief to have them handle the décor — they completely understood our vision and brought it to life beautifully.
What really stood out was how much they cared. The entire team made our family feel like their family, and they put so much focus on creating an incredible guest experience. From start to finish, everything felt seamless and welcoming.
We had a winter wedding at The Millhaven, and our family stayed at Greencrest Manor the night before, while our guests stayed at FireKeepers Casino Hotel. They split the space and flipped it for the ceremony leading into cocktail hour and then the reception. We had 220 guests. Everything flowed perfectly, and the entire weekend felt magical.
We can’t recommend The Millhaven enough for anyone looking for a stunning venue with an amazing team that turns your wedding day into a true fairytale!

Our wedding at the Millhaven was everything we had dreamed for our special day. The staff was very friendly and accommodating to our every need. They worked well with our vendors and everything ran smoothly. The gardens were in full bloom and meticulously taken care of for our ceremony. The greenhouse and the pickle factory were wonderful and beautiful spaces for our cocktail hour and reception. We have had so many people compliment on how beautiful the venue is how kind the staff was for our wedding. Our photographers loved the many unique photo spaces all around the Millhaven. We highly recommend booking your wedding at the Millhaven!

We had the absolute best experience holding our ceremony and reception at The Millhaven. The staff was very communicative, organized, and supportive during the whole process which made our actual wedding day so enjoyable and such a breeze! On top of that, the actual venue itself looked stunning and was the perfect setting for all of our guests. We could not have asked for a better venue or staff!

Our original venue in Battle Creek closed unexpectedly and they put us in contact with The Millhaven. From the moment I first toured the venue the entire staff was empathetic for what we were going through and made sure we still got our dream wedding.
The venue is everything I could have asked for and fit our style perfectly- like an industrial English garden. Our guests were blown away with how beautiful everything was. We had our ceremony in the greenhouse (which was HOT- but it’s a greenhouse and it was 90 degrees 🤷🏻♀️) followed by cocktail hour in the garden and reception in the pickle factory. It’s a brand new venue and the AC and bathrooms are fully up and running.
I highly recommend the day of coordination, Molly was absolutely amazing at making sure we had everything we needed, was always around, and kept everything on schedule. My husband and I found out 5 months before our wedding that we were expecting our first child and Molly made sure to bring in non alcoholic wine so I had something to toast with. At the end of the night, they took care of everything and I didn’t have to lift a finger.

This venue is gorgeous, there's no question about it. Communication with the team leaves quite a bit to be desired.
I had continuous trouble with getting in touch with any of the team once I noted that I did not want to add on their day-of-coordinator. Near each email to set up or review something did not have attachments, dates/times to choose from, didn't match our contract, etc. They missed our final prep call the week before the event, which was incredibly stressful and off putting. I also heard from multiple vendors they were quite difficult to work with as it pertained to insurance, but managed to sort everything out.
I wasn't informed until the day before our wedding (on the way to the rehearsal) that the bathrooms were not completed and once we arrived realized there was no air conditioning in the venue, greenhouse, or getting ready shed. The only reason I received this information was because I emailed and texted to confirm a rehearsal hour, prompting one of the employees to call and inform me only about the bathrooms. My MOH, makeup artist and myself were absolutely drenched with sweat, because what exactly do you do when you show up to get ready on the day of your wedding in a shed with a single fan? You shrug your shoulders and barrel on.
This is an absolutely stunning location and I am grateful to have had our wedding there, but I would be wary to recommend to others without knowing there was a change in the current level of service.

This venue is so beautiful! You would think you were in Europe somewhere - it's truly a gem. The staff, service, location, lodgings, everything is stellar and luxurious. What a hidden gem - but probably not for long once the word gets out!

This venue & it's staff are welcome you with open arms. The 'vibe' when you first walk into the space feels warm & inviting! It brings such unique aspect that sets it apart from other local venues. Working with Millhaven allows you to stray away from the common local barn venues. If you're looking for a unique, rustic, yet elegant venue that doesn't break your bank, you found the perfect spot!

The Millhaven is unmatched in its attention to detail, curation of beautiful spaces, and heart of service! Jenn and her team truly create magic with whatever they touch. The custom bar in the Pickle Factory is a gorgeous focal point in a space that is truly versatile and spacious! The Greenhouse and outdoor space are bright and bring such a fun experience to your guests. As a wedding photographer, I cannot say enough to praise how beautiful this location is to photograph as well as the ease with which it is to work with the team!
