The Ridge at Verterra Vineyards

best in Michigan (and possibly the world)! Amanda helped to coordinate our event and was on-site all day for our ceremony and reception. Her communication leading up to the event and on our special day was top-notch. She answered all of our questions and concerns with care. The weather for our ceremony was not ideal, but Amanda and The Ridge were ready to execute backup plans at a moment's notice. We ended up with a break in the weather and had a beautiful ceremony, exactly as planned. We would recommend The Ridge at Verterra to anyone for their wedding or special event!

e, restrooms and caterer facilities are very nice and climate controlled which was perfect for anticipating changing weather. Kim and her team were fabulous! They were great at responding quickly to any and all of our questions, and were incredibly helpful during the planning and day of celebration.

heaters in the tent for reception to keep guests warm, scenic view, delicious wines & ciders....OH & not to forget the bridal suite, one of my favorite parts of the venue! Would highly recommend to any couple looking to be married somewhere with breathtaking & unique views!

l of my guests raved about how beautiful the venue was. We thought that having just a tent in the middle of October would be a little risky but even with the cooler windy weather the tent was heated and super cozy. The bathrooms and bridal suite are both indoors and are very nice. Would absolutely recommend. The wine is fabulous and everything was all around perfect!

he backdrop. The venue is a dream landscape to create any special day. There is a ton of space to utilize for the ceremony, reception, cocktail hour activities, pictures, etc. We took advantage of the woodsy backdrop for our family pictures and they couldn’t have turned out better! We also used the large lawn for lawn games which our guests used during cocktail hours and during the reception. Everyone loved it! The venue has a beautiful bridal suite which is in a newly built barn next to the reception and ceremony site. The finishes within the suite are modernly elegant and spacious with two vanities, couch, chairs, and a large full length mirror. Our entire bridal party, mothers, and flower girls were able to utilize this space to get ready. Within this same building, there are nice indoor restroom facilitates for the guests to use during the wedding. There is also a catering kitchen for your caterer to utilize for the event. The tent that is provided by Verterra was a perfect area for the formalized reception! In June, on our wedding day, it was chilly and the sides of the tent were great to hold in heat and no one was cold. One of the biggest reasons we chose this site too was for the wines made by Verterra - they are amazing!! We fell in love the first time tasting the wine. From dry reds to smooth whites to sweet roses, they have a variety of elegant wines for any palate. We have even joined the wine club and enjoy getting our shipment of wine several times a year! During the wedding, we picked a variety of wines for our guests. Everyone only had great things to say about the wine selection and we definitely went through a lot of bottles! We also appreciated that Verterra allowed us to have beer provided by Right Brain Brewery for the non-wine drinkers. But trust us, even the beer-drinkers loved the Verterra wines. We can’t say enough good things about Kim, Verterra wedding coordinator. She was extremely helpful through the whole process. We were planning the wedding from Chicago and Kim was also able to hop on the phone while also being very quick to respond to email questions. Kim was available the week leading up to the wedding and also served as our day of coordinator. She was a comforting face to have by our side on the day of! Thank you, Kim!! The Ridge at Verterra was everything we could have dreamed of for our wedding day – it is a stunningly beautiful site with professional yet personal staff that ensured that the day went off without a hitch!

athrooms (which most vineyards don’t have). Kim & her team worked well with our wedding planner to pull off an amazing event!

out the venue and the wine. Highly Recommend!

terra team were super easy to work with and the execution on the day of was absolutely flawless. Also, did you know their wine is some of the best in Michigan? Anyhow, if you are looking for a picture perfect Michigan wine country wedding venue, you can stop looking - you've found your spot!

a but this was the most picturesque. The venue and variety of nearby scenery made for awesome pictures. The staff were great, and very helpful down to the last detail. We had a yummy custom mixed drink that Lindy helped us with. Although there was inclement weather for part of our day I still would have chosen this outdoor venue over any other - it was handled well and having everything on one site was great for our guests. You have to see the views and taste the wine and you'll understand why the best grapes and marriages are grown at Verterra Vineyard :-)

ly impressed by the staff. Matt and I were absolutely blown away by their professionalism and positive energy. This venue is truly one of a kind. If you are searching for a perfect piece of Northern Michigan, we guarantee you will love The Ridge at Verterra as much as we do!
