Weddings

Begin your lives surrounded by romance.  This is your day.  And this is Mackinac.
Mackinac is a vista for romance, and it’s not hard to see why.  This is a landscape characterized by high limestone bluffs (Mackinac Island), beautiful bodies of sparking water, vibrant forests, and mystical geological formations.  Elegant hotels, fine restaurants, and even horse and buggy transportation (Mackinac Island) further enhance this romantic atmosphere. It’s not surprising that the classic romance Somewhere in Time was filmed in this region.  Begin your lives together in Mackinaw City or on Mackinac Island, a place where, according to the Ojibwa and Odawa Great Lakes Indian Tribes, life first began.

 

Here in Mackinac, you’re able to give your wedding a romantic past.
Mackinac State Historic Parks offers six historic wedding venues to add even more romance to your already perfect day.  From the gazebo used in Somewhere in Time; to Ste. Anne de Michilimackinac church at Colonial Michlimackinac, a reconstruction of the 18th-century church built in its exact historical location; to the restored early 19th-century Historic Mission Church on Mackinac Island, your choices are broad and unique.  Walk down the “aisle” in our historic lighthouse or say "I do" after a flight down a zip line at Historic Mill Creek Discovery Park.  After all, it’s your wedding, your day, and yours to plan exactly the way you always dreamed…or never imagined.
