Wildwood Family Farms was the perfect venue for our wedding! My husband and I got married here in October. The venue was just what we were looking for. From the moment we booked, our coordinator Kelly was organized, helpful, and communicative. She was on top of every detail. The venue was beautiful on the day of. Kelly made our vision come to life with the floral and decor. The staff went above and beyond to make our wedding day everything we had hoped for and created a day of unforgettable memories. If I could do it all over, I would pick Wildwood again!

If you’re looking for the perfect wedding venue, look no further — Wildwood Family Farms is it! My husband and I got married here in September, and it was truly everything we could have dreamed of. The property is absolutely stunning — the landscape offers so many beautiful and versatile options for your ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and reception. Everywhere you look, there are amazing views and lush greenery. Our guests were in awe of the space and loved being able to explore the grounds and enjoy the property right alongside us.
We also had our florals done through Wildwood, and I can’t recommend that enough. Kelly has such an incredible eye for design — she took our inspiration and elevated it beyond what we could have imagined. From the bouquets and table settings to our welcome signs and arbor, everything was perfectly thought out and brought the space to life in such a personal way.
And I can’t forget the staff! From Kelly and Justin to the venue coordinators and bartenders, everyone was top-notch. They went above and beyond when it came to planning, communication, and making sure every detail was just right. Their effort and care made the whole experience so seamless and enjoyable. Wildwood Family Farms will always hold such a special place in our hearts, and we’re so grateful we chose it for our wedding day!

My husband and I toured one venue for our wedding and it was Wildwood! From the moment we got on the property we knew it was the place we would say “I do”! The grounds are stunning...
, well kept, cared for and clean. The buildings are beautiful and the venue holds so much character and charm. There are so many different options for ceremony / reception locations at Wildwood that you can truly make it your own.
Apart from the venue being stunning, Kelly and the Wildwood team were truly incredible to work with. She is so on-top of every question you may have, organized and prioritizes you. I really felt like our wedding was the only one they had all summer with all the attention to detail and time/energy they put into us.
Our wedding was the most special day and Wildwood played such a key part in that. I have absolutely no complaints - I would get married there over and over again (and wish I could). So excited to be able to attend future events there and the concert series!

We hired Wildwood Family Farms for our wedding venue, but it turned into so much more. I honestly could not recommend this place more.
First of all, Kelly and her team are amazin...
g. They are kind, easy to work with, and extremely experienced. Communication was excellent as well. Kelly was always available via email and was always willing to do video calls when needed (since we lived abroad).
We ended up using Wildwood for our floral, decorations, and even our welcome party! My husband and I actually live abroad, which I thought would make it difficult, but Wildwood is truly like a one-stop shop. Kelly has everything you need with her many years of experience with weddings.
Kelly's creativity with the floral and decor made my life so much easier. I sent her a picture of what I wanted and she had everything for me, set it up, and cleaned it up after the wedding. The bouquet and floral for my wedding was absolutely perfect. I loved every single thing she did.
For the welcome party, we got lucky because they were having an outdoor concert at the venue the night before, which Kelly invited us to. This was fun and all my guests loved it. Once again, making the planning process so much easier for me.
The venue itself is gorgeous. All of my guests loved it. Kelly gave us access to the whole property which provided a variety of options (both indoor and outdoor!!) for reception, ceremony, and pictures.
I can honestly say that I have ZERO complaints. Just be aware that the venue is out in the countryside, of course, so just be prepared to have transportation options available for your guests. Ubers get a little expensive at night, however, guests can split costs and leave their cars at the venue overnight.
Thank you again to Kelly and the team at Wildwood for making our wedding the most perfect, easy day!

I cannot recommend Wildwood Family Farms enough!!! We toured many West and Mid Michigan venues and this was by far THE BEST! Not only is the property absolutely stunning, but the e...
ntire process of planning was so easy! I was planning a Michigan wedding on 09/07/2024 from Florida and the property owner Kelly was incredibly accommodating and helpful. Not only did Kelly help me put together a beautiful event, she also took care of all the flowers, decorations, and day of coordination. Kelly is professional, organized, and just overall wonderful! Her communication was excellent throughout the entire process on every detail.
The venue has a concert series during the summer on Friday nights. We opted to have our wedding on a Saturday following the Friday night concert. That Friday, Kelly set up a special area at the concert for our guests, and we were able to use it as a Welcome Part. It was a gorgeous September Michigan evening and our guests loved it!!!
For the actual wedding day, we got married in the woods, did the cocktail hour on the lawn, and then used the Carriage House for the reception. Everything was perfect and beautiful!!! As the day of coordinator, Kelly handled all of the vendors and I was able to fully enjoy the day stress free!
All of the guests raved about how beautiful, well organized, and how much FUN they had at the wedding!!
As I opened with, I cannot recommend this place enough!
From the bottom of my heart, thank you Wildwood for the best day of my life!!!!!!!

Wildwood also made my life super easy by having so many rental items to choose from at a very reasonable cost, AND being our florist! Kelly was able to take my vision and turn it into reality. My bouquet was so beautiful. The bartenders provided were excellent as well. We highly recommend this venue - it is beautiful, affordable, and has an awesome staff.

to all of my emailed questions. The venue is all yours for your day which is so nice for pictures and the ceremony/reception site options. There are many more small prices to account for and fees after the initial price tag, but I think you will find that with anything wedding-related these days. If you are willing to spend extra, they will cover almost every area of need.

t list of over 200 so I was looking for a place that would offer flexibility and enough room to allow my guests to have a great time. I was doing my own decor and set up and I was also looking for a place to have an outdoor ceremony. Having a plan b for rain without having to flip a space was very important. I couldn't have asked for a better venue. I also wanted to be able to set up the day of and Kelly and her team had everything set perfectly the morning of. She answered all of my questions quickly and always had a solution to anything I wanted to incorporate for the day. It was very important to me to have personal touches which meant some additional set up needs. They met all of those needs. Every guest had only positive things to say and absolutely loved the space to be able to walk the grounds, play some yard games, or enjoy dinner and dancing. It made for beautiful pictures as well. Also I must note that I am not a typical "barn" person but this venue gave me the ability with the carriage house to have that modern touch and feel. The bar staff was WONDERFUL as well. We used Nighthawk catering (a preferred caterer) and they went above and beyond at a VERY reasonable cost. My husband and I went to see about five other locations besides WWFF and we immediately selected this one. I would highly recommend them.

Literally the best ever. I would book with Wildwood again and again. I can’t imagine our day or the whole process without Wildwood + Kelly and Justin who run it.
During our initia...
l visit Kelly commented on being a one-stop-shop and they 100% are. From the venue, to the bar and staff, the bulk of our decor, and the flowers (which were everything I could have hoped and dreamed for) — they did and had it all.
I felt like Kelly served as our coordinator throughout the process and I couldn’t be more thankful. She’s just a wealth of wedding knowledge and answered every single one of my questions — some of which I may have asked more than once.
We’re local to Wildwood and have been at the venue for various events, but many of our guests had not. I’m not exaggerating when I say most of our 130 guests commented on what a cool or beautiful or fun place Wildwood is — and it is all of those things!
I’d like to comment that while Wildwood is a “farm” there are a lot of different vibes that can be fulfilled within the venue. Whatever your goal is for what you want at your wedding or how you want it to feel, there is something for almost any style out there — and it’s all Pinterest worthy.
Your wedding can be whatever you want it to be, which is really, really awesome. Booking Wildwood was no-brainer for us because it checked all of our boxes personally. In the end I wouldn't want to have spent be our special day anywhere else. We just couldn’t be more thankful!

They worked well with our other vendors and made sure we were all set for our day!

We were able to attend some of these events which helped us when planning for our decor and imagine in our head what our special day would look like! Plus the events are always a great time with friends. If you have the opportunity to book this venue, i would highly recommend!

Justin was there the day of to help my husband with whatever he needed. I would absolutely recommend this venue to anyone looking to get married. We have nothing but praise for Wildwood!

In addition to it's beauty, the Wildwood team comes well prepared to help make your day go smoothly. We originally planned to have our ceremony outside at the entrance to the woods, but due to weather we had to change the ceremony to inside the carriage house last minute. The Wildwood team made this potentially stressful switch very simple (and just as beautiful as planned) for us by handling everything! We are so thankful that from the beginning of our planning process to the end of our wedding night, Justin and Kelly (the owners) were there to help every step of the way.

From beginning to end (and that's a tall order during COVID), Wildwood took care of us in the best way. This venue probably doesn't even need the 5 star review I'm leaving because...
every single guest that goes there couldn't stop talking about the place for weeks to follow. At numerous points throughout the evening, guests would come up saying how many unique and cool niches there are at the property for guests to enjoy (indoors and outdoors). It's so beautifully landscaped and Kelly did such an amazing job with the fine details (she has an incredibly artsy eye). You will absolutely NOT be disappointed should you choose this venue. To me, it's one of the most beautiful, cool and personable venues you will find in Grand Rapids, not to mention, Michigan... and believe me, we did a lot of research on venues.

When I tell people about this place, I refer to it as a one stop shop because they have in house floral, rentals, and bartending, which makes everything so easy to plan. You don’t have to have a dozen vendors to cover all your bases. And their property is so beautiful. I had several guests tell me it was the most beautiful wedding they’ve been to.

Their bar service and bar tenders were wonderful and very personable, so it was nice that you were able to tip them on your phone without having to bring cash. We also hired our officiant, caterer, and DJ through their recommended vendor list and they were all outstanding. Let’s just say, we don’t regret a single thing about choosing Wildwood as our venue!

We worked with Kelly and Justin throughout the pandemic to reschedule our 2020 wedding and their flexibility and patience made a stressful scenario so much easier to handle. I would highly recommend Wildwood Family Farms to anyone planning a wedding or event in the Grand Rapids area.

e planned this MI wedding while living in Atlanta, GA. They were easy to communicate with and even helped answered questions about the area when it came to other planning endeavors. The Farm is absolutely stunning and made my dream of getting married in a big red Michigan barn a reality. Their staff was a joy to work with as well. Kelly was also my florist and the flowers turned out stunning. When we hit a huge bump on the day of our wedding they were able to step in and helped us find who we needed which honestly made our day even more amazing. They helped to save our day! They are an amazing venue and even more amazing people.

BEST EXPERIENCE HANDS DOWN!
We cannot thank Justin & Kelly enough for all they did to make our wedding the most special day. We wish we could relive it over and over again. Our gu...
ests could not stop talking about how beautiful and amazing the venue was. From the planning all the way until the last call for the night, everything was perfect!! Kelly and Justin go above and beyond to make each wedding special and a day to remember. I would highly recommend this venue without even thinking twice about it. The property has so much to offer from the barn, to the carriage house, to the beer gardens, pond, and so much more!!
We rented a tent through Kelly for our reception because we had a larger size wedding and it was PERFECT! The guests loved being able to roam the property and take in the beautiful surroundings.
If you are in need of a wedding venue- look no further. Kelly + Justin are THE BEST. Wildwood is the place to be!!

Still reminiscing in how beautiful our wedding day turned out! Right when we toured this venue, we instantly fell in love with this place. Between the gardens, outdoor bar, the bar...
n, the new Carriage House, and awesome owners, Kelly & Justin; everything was perfect and exactly what we imagined our special day to be!
Kelly and Justin made all of the wedding planning extremely simple. Kelly was great to work with and knew exactly what we needed to make our wedding day what we wanted. The venue itself is beautiful, so not many decorations were needed. We had both our ceremony and reception here; this place is great because there are so many options for locations within the property.
I used Kelly for our flowers and they turned out beautiful! They grow the flowers themselves, so it was really easy to work with Kelly on exactly what type of flowers we wanted, colors, etc.
Our guests cannot stop talking about how great of a time they had! I would HIGHLY recommend this venue!

Wildwood Family Farms is absolutely beautiful. We had the chance to switch our reception into the new carriage house, which gave me more space. The carriage house’s simple, but ele...
gant decor let me decorate it with ease. Just adding centerpieces to the tables made it perfect for us.
Leading up to the wedding, the weather was not looking great. Last minute Justin and Kelly set up heaters and put up tent sides surrounding the carriage house. This made it more enjoyable for the guests who were not cold at all the whole night!
Overall, Justin and Kelly are SO good to work with. Their experience helped the planning process run smoothly, and I appreciate their willingness to work with me on the things I was looking for in a reception venue. Added plus- their property is absolutely beautiful and has so many options for different pictures and entertainment for the guests at the reception!
Definitely would recommend this place to any bride looking for a beautiful place for their wedding!!

e loved their bar service. Their Margaritas are divine and the bartenders are so friendly. We also loved one of their recommended caterers, Saladino’s. We got so many compliments on it!
Kelly is a beautiful florist! I loved my bouquet so much I ordered it twice. And she let me use the trimmings for my hair.
Kelly and Justin were quick and consistent in answering emails and phone calls, patient with our questions, and beyond gracious through the pandemic. They were also available for help throughout the day of the wedding.
Honestly, it’s a beautiful, private venue with much of what you need for a wedding already built in and waiting for your day. Kelly and Justin do all they can to ensure the success of your day and they’re great people! So glad we picked Wildwood!

We can't say enough great things about Wildwood Family Farms!
We had the unique situation of moving our wedding up by 2 months due to COVID and our original venue being forced to ...
cancel on us. Things have a way of working out though because our friends and family loved spending the day on the farm with us and we couldn't have envisioned our day being any more beautiful or going any smoother.
Getting married is stressful without worrying about safety of your guests but Wildwood helped us to ensure that from the minute our guests arrived, they had the space to spread out and feel comfortable and for that we couldn't be more thankful!
Justin and Kelly are incredible. We appreciated their communication with us (especially with a shorter timeline) their willingness to be flexible leading up to the event and their wonderful experience they provided for our guests.
If you haven't been out to the farm, I highly suggest you check it out, it feels like the West Side's very own Magnolia Farms and between the blooms and beautiful trees you really are going to be hard pressed to find a space more whimsical and wonderful.
