The best day

The Glensheen team worked so well with our wedding planner and caterers. Our wedding day was 100% stress free. They were even able to make sure that the string quartet was able to play for our outdoor ceremony in 38 degree weather without damaging the instruments or the fingers of the musicians!

Fall Wedding

Glensheen helped us to have the most memorable day! A very guest-friendly experience, our friends and family loved getting to spend time next to beautiful Lake Superior, touring the house, and celebrating with us! We loved tying the knot in such a unique and beautiful home that we can visit every year! Wonderful staff helped us to organize such a wonderful day. Would recommend to anyone!

Exceptional

My husband and I had our reception here on September 8th and from start to finish, couldn't have had a better experience. The event director was super easy to communicate with and transparent during the booking process. In the months leading up to our wedding day, they would check in and were always available for any questions we had. On the day of, they took care of all the set up for us. When we arrived, everything was done and looked beautiful. During our reception, staff was incredibly attentive and always asking how we were doing and if we needed anything. If we asked them a question, they would get on their headset and find us an answer quickly. Just an example of how amazing this staff was: The florist misplaced my toss bouquet and a few of the staff grabbed extra flowers and created a new toss bouquet for me in a matter of minutes. I would highly recommend Glensheen because not only is it a beautiful venue, it was the most stress-free part of wedding planning.
