Unique wedding venue search

I went to Orchard Ridge Farms this weekend to look at the Pavilion. I LOVED the interior! I wasn't crazy about the grounds though. It's also a bit too pricey just to rent the place. I'm trying to find a place that has a similar decor and structure to the Pavilion and not having much luck. Any ideas?

    If you haven't already, check out Byron Colby Barn in Grayslake and Concorde Centre in Woodstock.

    Any updates on your search?  What was the rental fee for Orchard Ridge? I was going to look there but don't like how far it is

    I've actually been checking out the Herrington Inn in Geneva. I also looked at the Kennilworth Club in Kennilworth. Orchard Ridge has a $7000 rental fee for the building/grounds. That, in addition to the food/bev, put us way out of our budget... But it's actually nice out there--very plain and the grounds, "farmland", isn't very established--but still nice. If I had more money to spend I would definitely consider it.

    Hi,

    We are planning a midwestern wedding in NW IN or SW MI from Boston and San Diego, which means to say we haven't visited anything yet.

    I love the idea of an apple orchard.  Did you find any others you liked?
