BlueBridge Events Centre

The decision to choose BlueBridge as our wedding venue was pretty simple. We knew we wanted to be married up north and as close to our dating anniversary as possible which meant we would need to have our wedding indoors during early November. BlueBridge is the singular venue in the Grand Traverse area (and beyond) that completely embraces the up-north feel without being cliche, overly "rustic" ski-lodgy. Polly was immediately receptive to our calls and we reserved our date without ever seeing the space indoors until a couple weeks before our actual wedding. The photos are what ultimately last and everything we could see online was more than compelling enough for us. The planning process was seamless and Polly, Kassidy, Stephanie, Chris and Ray walked us through so many aspects we would have been otherwise clueless about. This review would be an unreadable length if I were to list these points, just know that nothing is too small or too big of an ask when you have this team behind you. The space was decorated beautifully, I wish I had better words to describe it. I never worried anything would look bad or tacky but when I came out of the bridal suite and saw the table settings, that was probably the closest I came to crying all day. It felt like an autumnal wonderland and I felt so confident and proud for the night we were about to have. If you do your events with BlueBridge, do not pass up the opportunity to work with Stephanie for all your floral designs. As for coordinating the wedding day, Polly stayed true to her promises that us, our wedding parties and parents wouldn't have to think of a thing and that she would handle everything. She sensed when to move on to the next event and kept the party flowing without a single hiccup to the entertainment. Miraculously, the team even managed to take a photobooth picture when I barely made it in there lol. I treasure every single memento!! The event space was the perfect backdrop for a timeless, romantic night which is exactly what we wanted and exactly what we got. I couldn't even tell you how many people told us it was the best wedding they've ever been to. The bonfire was a huge hit for our friends that would rather chat, and also a great reprieve for anyone needing to cool off from the dance floor. Even though it was chilly outside, I could tell everyone was comfortable. Any kids in attendance had a blast too, not a single bored face to be found. They loved the swing, hot chocolate and s'mores at the bonfire; some parents even told us they regretted not bringing their kid afterall, saying they would have had a ton of fun. I hope we get ourselves invited to a BlueBridge wedding one day, it's just a perfect space anyway you look at it. Polly and every member of the team are amazingly warm and make you feel like you're the only couple they're guiding / that matters. Not sure how they do it but we'll be grateful for our entire lives for helping us throw the best party we'll ever have. We could never say it enough but thank you so, so much to the entire BlueBridge team for the "wedding of the century" as my grandma put it lol. -Kelly and Adam

We got married in late May of 2023 and everything was amazing. Polly and her day of coordinators made sure the time line was followed as close as possible. I highly recommend this venue because everyone loved it was an all in one venue and the natural beauty. You were not contained to a ballroom with a dance floor. Guests were able to be in doors at their tables, dancing, roaming the garden and we added on the bonfire with smores.

They helped out with my wedding planning so much, and took off so much stress! The day of my wedding they were on top of absolutely everything and made our day seamless!
