Intimate, beautiful wedding on Lake Superior

If you are thinking about a North Shore wedding, you should absolutely be thinking Bluefin! Jess and all of the Bluefin staff are incredible, the setting on Lake Superior is unbeatable, and our wedding went off without a hitch. I cannot recommend Bluefin enough for your event!! My now-husband and I wanted to keep our wedding small and hold it in a location that held meaning for us. We have been up to the north shore every year as a couple, and once we realized it was possible to get married up there, it was a no brainer for us. We toured several local resorts that boasted wedding venue options. Bluefin was easily the best, and we quickly decided that we would be getting married lake-side. Jess (the event manager) was incredible from the first moment connecting with her to schedule a tour. On the tour, she was so helpful and accommodating, it was easy to picture getting married in their space. Jess and her whole team deserve the highest of praise. I have received so many compliments on the wedding, but by far my guests are pointing out the service we received. The bar and wait staff were INCREDIBLE. Like the best ever. They were so attentive but also laid-back, which was exactly what we needed. The people at Bluefin are second to none. Of course, the setting is hard to beat as well. Many guests have complimented the lake-side ceremony as unique, intimate, and special. Jess and her team had everything set up perfectly for us, and I could not have asked for anything better. Our annual trips up the shore will now include a stop at Bluefin, and I feel very lucky to have such an incredible place be the backdrop for an incredible memory. Thank you Jess, the team, and Bluefin Bay!

We could not be happier with our wedding at Bluefin Bay! I highly recommend it to someone who is looking for the beauty of the North Shore, as there are several ceremony sites right on Lake Superior. They were so accommodating and helpful throughout the entire process, the day passed with ease. For example, it was unexpectedly cold on the day of the wedding and they put blankets out for the guests to use at the ceremony. As for the reception, many guests told us it was the best food they have ever had at a wedding, and the value is on point. This it not the place for you if you want a large wedding, the reception room is able to squeeze in 100 people max. The best part is, you get to go to Bluefin to plan the wedding and every year after for your anniversary!

We seriously could not have been happier with Bluefin and Jeremy's help in making our wedding day perfect. Just perfect! Bluefin is such an amazing venue with stunning ceremony sites and reception areas. The atmosphere is such that the party goes on all night long and we heard from so many guests that they had an amazing weekend on the north shore thanks to us choosing that destination.

Thank you Bluefin for all the little touches you did to make our day so wonderful, we appreciate it so much.
