Venues & Event Spaces near Lawton, MI

“This was the best place for my May wedding!!! Not only was it BEAUTIFUL, but it was affordable for my husband, family and I. Malissia was SUCH a big help in planning our wedding. Not only did she let us borrow her centerpieces, aisle decor, plates, cups, napkins, table cloths, cake/cupcake holders and all of her twinkle lights (all included in our rental fee), she was wonderful to work with! She was flexible, listened to what we wanted, and had the best staff working with her on our wedding day. She also recommended our AMAZING caterer, Wine and Country Catering, that made the most delicious spread for our entire wedding!! Our guests favorite parts of the venue were the exposed rock, the lighting, the museum in the basement that they got to walk through while we took pictures, and the open garage door behind our alter that showed the greenery of the vines and trees outside (without having to have a hot outdoor wedding)! I could not have chosen a better place to have my wedding, and Malissia and her crew made it even better than I had imagined!! Highly recommend this venue for any occasion!!!”

“An Honest Review from the Sparks:My wife (F27) and I (M28) had our wedding reception at the Red Brick Hall (RBH) on April 29th 2023. The venue is beautiful and the workers are very kind!(The Staff): The venue owner, Jessica, and her assistant, Reneé with whom showed us the venue, were both friendly, warm, and kind to us. Jessica went above and beyond when we were taking photos in the balcony and offered to bring us some appetizers and waters while we wrapped up, which was so kind!(Setting Everything Up): RBH space which holds roughly 180 people, but in reality for comfortable dancing space and walking between tables, you may want to plan on 120 guests or less. Even without having our wedding at RBH Jessica was still very kind to us and allowed us to come in the day before our reception to set everything up which was so helpful.(The Food): The food was surprisingly good at our actual wedding reception at the RBH, we had great h'orderves (crab dip was insanely good, the fruit platter (also amazing), and the cheese platter was out of this world!), and dinner was great too! We had the rotisserie chicken, pulled pork, and home made Mac-n-cheese, yum!BUT, initially, after the food tasting a few months prior to our wedding, we were very concerned that dinner would not be good. Being completely honest and fully transparent with everyone here, the food was initially awful, ranging from horribly designed meals, to food combinations and platters that were over-done, undercooked, or came with terrible presentations on the plates. On the catering menu there we 12 main dishes to choose from, but we were only able to try 5 at the tasting, which didn’t make sense to either of us.So all of this said, we were really nervous, but again dinner ended up being great, and the dinner workers were kind, efficient, and very helpful. The workers even set up our donut table for us, which was very very kind of them to do, and it looked great!Only other thing we would say is that some of the venue expectations/guidelines should probably be brought up before the contract is signed just so that couples know everything up front. We received some extra clean up guidelines a month prior to our day, which ended up being fine and easier than expected for clean up, but it just would have been nice to know well in advance.”

“My volunteer organization hosted an event here, and it was wonderful! The staff are accommating and responsive. The space is beautiful, and easy to access. We will definitely look to Pretty Lake Camp for future events.”
