  I had my ceremony at the League and my reception at the Union 3 weeks ago. Both the League and the Union were great to work with. Most of the planning was with Ken Knell at the Union- he's very professional and made the process easy (well as easy as it could be). The prices are laid out pretty well on the website- just watch out for the service charge. The fees for renting the rooms are very reasonable in my opinion. The food is a bit on the costly side, but for me having the reception in such a beautiful setting was worth it for me. They are very flexible with food choices though- My husband came up with the idea of adding a crepe station (which is listed nowhere in their menu) and the executed it beautifully (we did chocolate/banana, lemon curd/powdered sugar and creme/berries). Day of the staff at the Union were fantastic as well- dinner service went smoothly and the staff were very courteous (asking us if we wanted our food held until we did table visits was nice I thought... not sure if that's standard or not). If you do end up doing the ceremony at the League, I recommend that you stay at the hotel's suite. It is HUGE- It has a bed, 2 couches that pull out into a bed and a large dining table. It was perfect for getting ready with my bridesmaids (especially if you have hair/make up come in). The biggest PITA was parking though- you know Ann Arbor so you know how it is. We ended up paying $5/car for parking at the nearby structure. Sorry if I ended up rambling there...If you have any specific questions, feel free to PM me.

  If you're looking for vintage/barn setting I'd check out Misty Farms. A venue I looked into & thought was very beautiful, just wasn't what we exactly envisioned for our reception site. Good Luck!
