Absolutely magical!

We cannot rave enough about our experience at the BlueBridge. Our wedding night was better than we ever could have imagined thanks to the amazing staff who are patient, organized, kind, accommodating and detail oriented. Polly was our day-of-coordinator and she was AMAZING! Guests came up to us all night to tell us how much they loved this venue. We would whole-heartedly recommend the BlueBridge to any couple.

The Perfect Northern Michigan Wedding Venue

The BlueBridge processes were very easy and simple to follow. We did not have issues understanding what was the next step.

Having dedicated employees for each position was really nice as well. We felt like we were working with a strong team with the coordinators, owners, florist, tech guy, handyman/landscape guy, and DJ.

Everyone made every detail that we wanted possible. The amount of meetings were not overwhelming. There were some things that we feel we pre-planned ourselves but if we didnt, BlueBridge team would have filled in the gaps. The questionnaires that BlueBridge provided were very useful and easy to use to define the finer details.

Alyssa was our coordinator and it truly felt like we were working with a friend and she kept us calm with everything going on. She helped us create the wedding day schedule, tend to our wants, lots of behind the scene work, and making sure any detail isn't missed.

Something to note…The florist and DJ are integrated into the BlueBridge team. Their DJ has to be used but you can choose another florist if desired.

A great team to work with and a beautiful venue location for a perfect wedding. Having the team made us much more confident everything would go perfect! Highly recommend!

Everything was AMAZING!

We booked Blue Bridge (Bridge Side) for our wedding in May 2023. There aren’t enough words to explain how amazing the entire process of wedding planning was. On our initial tour of the venue 10 months prior, we felt embraced and taken care of. Every single one of the staff members that we encountered were beyond fabulous, attentive, and helpful. Each member made sure our wedding day was more than we could have ever imagined.

Our guests LOVED the venue. The grounds were well taken care of and had so many added touches that made it light up and look beautiful. The chapel was perfect to get married in.

Our planning process went incredibly smoothly. They are a well oiled team and thought about every detail! It was easy to book, plan, and coordinate our day because of everyone that helped.

The wedding day was fabulous, perfect, and amazing. The crew were eager to work and make our dreams come true. The DJ had the dance floor going, the bartenders had the drinks flowing, and the managers and planners made sure the day went without a hitch.

The only thing we were sad about was that the night went by way too fast! We wished we had more days to celebrate with the BlueBridge Team!

If I could book every event with them, we would again and again.
