This venue was so beautiful! Nicole and Carol were amazing at helping set up and working with us. Both the inside and the outside was so incredibly amazing.

Every guest at our wedding commented that they had never seen a more beautiful wedding. This venue is seriously stunning. Our wedding was beyond even my very best vision of it - it was truly perfect. Nicole and her team at the Manor House, including Carol who was so kind and thoughtful, are to thank for pretty much all of it! The staff were generous and attentive, and they all seemed to genuinely care about making the event special. Nicole was so fabulous to work with, she met with us and talked with us over the phone many times, always making herself available, and always when she answered questions it was the perfect answer. We live in Brooklyn, NY so our availability to see the venue and meet was limited and Nicole really worked with us to make it easy on us. It was so helpful that everything was handled in one place - from the food (which is truly delicious, guests commented on how good the appetizers and dinner both were), to the ceremony set up and the reception and dance floor - having it all managed by Nicole made it so that we didn’t have any complications trying to manage it from out of state. I had a lot of personal touches and little details that I felt very particular about, and the staff at the Manor House took care of them all and Nicole made sure that everything really was perfect. She took care of us and I loved knowing, on the wedding day, that we were in very capable hands and we had nothing to worry about. It made the experience so much more grounded and enjoyable to feel like it was all taken care of and we could relax and enjoy, and that is what we did!

Absolutely amazing. The staff was wonderful, the food was delicious, the grounds are gorgeous. They handle everything. No need to stress about anything. Would definitely recommend for brides who are looking for that intimate wedding. The pricing is great and you get a lot more for your money. Even over a traditional venue. I don't live in the area but we drove 2 hours to use this venue. Absolutely amazing!!!

We love officiating weddings at Kellogg Manor House. Nicole and her staff are very organized and professional and yet have an easy going attitude that make working with them very enjoyable. The beautiful pagoda garden is set on Gull Lake where we have officiated most of our ceremonies. We have also done intimate ceremonies in the flower garden which features a lovely fountain. (the bee balm and phlox smell heavenly) For an indoor wedding the manor house is nice too. The grounds are well kept and provide a beautiful setting. Guests love touring the house during the cocktail hour and learning about it's history. We highly recommend this venue!
