We got married at Rush Lake Memories this June and we had a wonderful experience! The staff were super friendly and willing to answer all of our questions. They were super accommodating of our needs and flexible to ensure we had the best experience possible. Throughout the entire process, Rush Lake Memories had great communication with us! The day of our wedding, the event space was extremely clean and well organized. The Bridal and Groom suites were really nice to get ready in, and everyone was so welcoming! The venue is absolutely beautiful, and having a beautiful ceremony space in the same location as the reception was really convenient for us and everyone who attended.

My husband and I recently got married at the stunning Lakefront Pavilion at Bay Pointe Inn — and from the very beginning, we knew it was the place we wanted to say “I do.” We have absolutely no regrets! The venue is breathtaking on its own, with gorgeous waterfront views that created the most peaceful, romantic atmosphere. On top of that, the staff’s hospitality was next-level. They provided so much helpful guidance throughout the planning process and truly made everything feel seamless. Even without a wedding planner, I felt fully supported thanks to their incredible in-house catering and event managers (shoutout to Mariesa and Juno!) and our amazing day-of coordinator, Meagan. She ran the show flawlessly and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect — I truly can’t thank her enough. We also hosted our rehearsal dinner onsite in the Fireside Room, which made everything so easy and gave us extra time to enjoy with our family and wedding party. The food was delicious, and another huge perk was staying in the beautiful Bay Pointe cottages. Having a place right at the venue for all of us to stay and celebrate together made the weekend even more special. All night long, our guests raved about how beautiful the venue was. It was everything we dreamed of and more — the most magical place to start our forever. We truly couldn’t recommend Bay Pointe more!!

Megan is the best!! I debated getting a day-of coordinator because I knew I would be thinking about the setup of everything when I should have just been enjoying the day and Megan allowed me to do just that. We had a few meetings beforehand to go over details and when the day came she kicked it into high gear and handled literally everything without a hitch. She knows how to handle people and is so detail oriented. I cannot imagine my wedding day without her. Thank you Megan!! 3

On the big day, they arrived right on time and immediately got to work making me and my bridesmaids feel gorgeous. They were so understanding of what we wanted, and helped bring our vision to life. The hair was absolutely beautiful and lasted fairly well (considering it was 90 degrees and very humid) all night long as we danced the night away. I felt like the most stunning bride, and my girls couldn't stop complimenting how lovely their styles turned out. Style Unveiled's work is just gorgeous, and their sweet team helped make our wedding day feel that much more special. For beautiful work and wonderful communication, I would highly recommend them!

We knew we wanted our wedding to be full of dancing, so our DJ was one of the first vendors we booked. We hit the absolute JACKPOT with Luxx and DJ Mike. Mike kept the party going and the only time our guests were leaving the dance floor was to grab another drink. Even our friends and family who don't dance were out on the dance floor tearing it up thanks to Mike. He did a great job mixing songs and keeping the energy high. We had so many guests tell us after the wedding it was the best music and dance floor of any wedding they'd been to. Mike was incredibly professional and easy to work with and we can't recommend him and Luxx Entertainment enough!

Awarded Best of Zola
We had our wedding in November 2025 using Classic Catering & Events for dinner, desserts, and our wedding cake, as well as having their sister company Once Upon a Bloom for our florist. Heather covered both areas stunningly well. For dinner we did the chopped steak, grilled chicken, green beans, salad, and Mac and cheese all in buffet style. Everything came out great, cooked to perfection. The chopped steak was especially tasty and a favorite with both me (the bride) and guests! And the fact that it came with a water, lemonade, and sweet tea stand was so nice for our guests who didn’t drink alcohol or for those who did drink, and needed to stay hydrated. For dessert we did an arrangement of small goodies including the cake shooters, and it also came out amazing. The cake shooters were my favorite of all the desserts, we even got to pick a variety of different cake flavors! And CC&E arranged everything to be picture perfect on the tables, bringing their own food stands which was a huge help to me. The cake was a simple but elegant two tier chocolate cake with white frosting. It also came out tasting great. It was affordable, which I appreciated, allowing us the ability to choose the traditional tiered cake over boring sheet cake but remain within our budget. With the floral arrangements, Heather went above and beyond. As a bride who knows very little about flowers, I did not give Heather much to go on when creating our bouquets and floral arrangements. And yet she took the pictures of me and my bridesmaids’ dresses, the wedding colors and themes, and the wedding Pinterest I had made, and was able to create incredible bouquets and arrangements, while also being aware of our budget! I was speechless seeing the bouquets and got so many compliments. The most impressive thing about this is the fact that Heather did all this work while only being able to email with me due to the fact that I live in a different state than AL and travel for work quite often. Even with an 8 hour time difference (for a month leading up to the wedding due to my work trip) her communication with me was effective and timely. Heather’s dedication and expertise is one reason why my wedding was so stress free! I highly, highly recommend Heather’s two companies Classic Catering & Events and Once Upon a Bloom to any bride in the Alabama area.

My husband nor I are from Michigan (from the Chicagoland area) and everyone kept asking us "why Michigan?" The moment they walked in, they felt the same feeling I did when I first toured the venue. It is beautiful, unique, personal and was everything and more that I could have hoped for. Our wedding as at the end of June and we were very fortunate that the rain held off and the temperature/humidity ended up being perfect. We had about 185 guests attend the wedding and I think everyone was too stunned by the venue to even care about the drizzle of rain that was happening. Not to mention, Amelia and her staff are absolutely amazing from the very beginning to the very end.

I’m Brittany, a laid-back, candid and colorful photographer in Kalamazoo, Michigan. I love working with ALL couples, but especially have a soft spot for non-traditional weddings. My gays, weirdos, ADHDers, D&D players- I'm your girl. Let's connect over our shared passions or fandoms- I'm a lover of all things spooky, Halloween, books, cats, oat milk lattes, Star Wars, and continuing education courses.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot more highly recommend Brittany and her team! I first worked with her when my friends and I hired her to for a surprise photo shoot for a friend's bachelorette. We had the best time walking around Three Oaks, MI, taking photos in front of cute buildings and murals, in a public community garden, on the steps of our rental house with a giant Batman balloon, and more. Brittany had tunes playing the whole time to keep an upbeat tone, and the photos were ones that captured the joy and meaning of lifelong friendships. My experience with her was so positive that when it was then time to find a photographer for my own wedding, she was my top choice. I was delighted to find out that even though she's based in Western, MI, she also does weddings in Chicagoland. We shared with her that our top priorities were taking pictures with our families, taking pictures as a couple in a way where we could just kind of walk around and interact with the environment and see what inspires us, and capturing the ceremony and reception. Brittany and her second photographer Liv more than delivered on our requests. Our photo shoot with our families was incredibly fun! We walked to a nearby park, got our pre-planned pictures, and then were able to get some really precious candid pictures of my nephew, brother, and his wife going down the playground slide. We also got some incredibly cute pictures of my baby niece, sister, and brother-in-law. I'm not including the family pics here since they're pics with kids, but just know that they are amazing! Brittany and Liv did such a good job making funny noises to get our niece and nephew to laugh, and as a result, put the rest of us at ease as well. Taking pictures as a couple was also really fun! I am not someone who naturally feels comfortable getting my photo taken, but I just had the best time! They made it a laid-back, and creative experience, where we could all kind of have ideas and try them out. At one point I was like "I like this lamp post, can we get a picture with it?" and they were like "yes!" My husband was also having a lot of pre-wedding jitters, and Liv was somehow magically able to put him at ease. A thing I didn't really think about before the wedding is that taking couples pictures is some of the only "alone" time you get on your wedding day. Brittany and Liv made this time really special, bringing positive energy, affirmation, and creativity, while creating space for us to treasure our time together as a couple. Finally, they did an incredible job capturing the ceremony and reception. I can't even really put into words what they managed to do. They captured the small details- the facial expressions, the moments where everyone's laughing because of an intentional joke or an unintentional but charming mess up. They captured us as a couple, but also the community we were lucky enough to gather around us. There's something intangible about the magic you create at a wedding, that they somehow bottled it up and got it into these photos, which we will treasure for the rest of our lives.

I picked up my camera and took some random pictures. I posted some pictures on FB and several friends told me, "Girl! Seriously, you need to start a photography business and I need a family session! " Here I am. I have been doing it for seven years now, over 100 weddings and I love it!! I have amazing clients and I consider them to be family.

Kimberly was truly the best photographer we could have asked for! She was always responsive and truly was able to bring our vision to life. She went above and beyond and we will always be grateful that she captured our engagement photos and wedding day. I would recommend her to anyone who asks!

We had the best Hair and Makeup artists KayLeigh and Corena from Alder Hair Studio for our wedding! This is the dream team for making you feel beautiful on your big day. These girls were so incredibly talented, and make you feel like the best version of yourself. Not only did they get everyone's hair and makeup done in a very tight timeline but they made sure to take the time to explain what they were doing and ask what bridal party members wanted for there looks. the comfort of my bridal party was my top priority so finding out that alder hair studios was LGBTQ friendly and had an eye for making you look beautiful was the best feeling in the world. multiple members of my bridal party couldnt say enough about how much they loved getting dolled up by KayLeigh and Corena. On top of it I found out after the wedding one of my bridesmaids who has a skin condition asked the makeup artists to help cover it up and they helped make her feel beautiful in her own skin, I have never seen her glow with confidence she truly felt and looked stunning! Plus they took the time to move to the Grooms room and give him a hairstyle that fit him and his curly hair so well! Thank you so much Kayleigh and Corena for being part of the best day of our lives!
