I am planning a West Michigan Wedding! I am planning my 2011 Summer wedding on a beach in West Michigan somewhere. Does anyone have any ideas for a great, professional reception hall afterwards? I'm looking in the Grand Haven, Holland, Saugatuck, Muskegon, even Ludington area.

    Camp Blodgett is popular, St. Joseph has the big band shell right on the beach near the lighthouse and then the Heritage Hall nearby.

    A friend of mine had her reception at Above & Beyond in Muskegon/Norton Shores. It's not far from Hoffmaster(?) Park. It was a beautiful reception.

    Camp Blodgett! I had my reception there and loved it. It has such a gorgeous view. The sun coming through the windows was breaktaking. It only accomodates smaller weddings though. It can seat 160 people max.

    Grand Haven Golf Club, Fruitport Golf Club are good choices.

    Congrats! I am going the same route you are for my wedding this year! We are having our ceremony at Kirk Park, a county park on Lake Michigan between Holland and GH! Our reception is at HarbourFront Grand Hall, which is located in the old Piano Factory right above Porto Bellos in downtown GH. Its got the exposed brick look and a outdoor area for guests to get away from the party that over looks the city and the channel. The people who run it are very helpful... it books quickly! We got engaged in October of 2009 and had only 2 dates besides Friday nights to work with for the summer of 2010.

    I'd also try Bay Pointe located on Gun Lake! Its a beautiful resort located on Gun Lake... it has an option to do a reception outside but everything is in one place... the lake and beach are not the same as Lake Michigan but if you look at some of the photographers websites you can find some weddings that have been there! Try looking on K. Holly's blog... she done resent weddings at both locations!
