Whether you are planning a simple elopement, a small family ceremony, or a wedding weekend getaway, we make it easy to say “I do” in one of Northern Michigan’s most scenic spots.
If you’ve been searching for low cost outdoor wedding venues, dreaming about a Mackinac Island wedding, hoping to elope Mackinac Island-style without the extra logistics, or planning a St. Ignace wedding, you’re in exactly the right neighborhood.
A Michigan wedding venue that keeps things simple
At Elope Up North, your wedding can be as laid-back or as dressed-up as you want. Casual. Elegant. Somewhere in between. No cookie-cutter ceremonies. No ballroom that looks like every other ballroom. No pressure to invite your second cousin’s roommate just because someone “might be offended.”
We offer four separate waterfront ceremony areas:
-
Eastside
-
Westside
-
Center
-
Pier
The eastside and westside can accommodate up to 150 guests, the center area is set with benches for up to 70 guests, and the pier can host up to 30 guests. Smaller weddings have the most flexibility, which is one of the many perks of keeping things intimate.
