River Dell Venue
Your Event, Your Style, Our Country Setting
Now Booking 2024 Weddings!
Our Pure Michigan event venue rests along the Kalamazoo River and is surrounded by cropland and woods.
We are centrally located between Battle Creek and Jackson and serve all of South Central Michigan.
It is the perfect natural setting for any gathering.
Weddings
The open and wooded spaces around our farm are picturesque places to hold your wedding ceremony and reception! Our big red barn has theater-style seating capacity for 150 people and it has quiet ceiling fans to keep your guests comfortable during the summer months. The river bank, wooded trails, and the rustic grain bin provide countless picture backdrops to reflect the unique style of every couple. And with the option of on-site lodging in the farm house, your wedding planning to-do list just got a lot shorter!
We are excited about our new OUTDOOR RECEPTION SPACE! There is a new clearing in the woods where you can now hold a small reception. This new wooded space is complete with a log-gazebo bar and a brick dance floor. If you are looking for a natural-beauty vibe, you can find it at River Dell!
