About
On WeddingWire since 2020
Based in Port Sanilac, Michigan, Lavender Shores Farm is a charmingly rustic wedding venue with ample event space. Owners Dan and Christine Kelly have lovingly cultivated their farmland into something beautiful. Their motivation stemmed from the experience of planning their own wedding. In the year 2015, the couple set out to find a suitable venue for themselves. After much frustration at the lack of options, they took matters into their own hands, transforming their acreage into the stunning destination it is today. Dan’s relationship with his son also played a role in the establishment of the farm, which allowed them to work side by side. Following Dan and Christine’s ceremony in 2017, Lavender Shores Farm began breathing of new life. Now, the property presents endless wedding possibilities.
Facilities and Capacity
Couples wanting shelter from the elements on their big day will find that they have access to approximately 2,400 square feet of indoor space. The century-old celebration barn is both well-appointed and cared for, housing up to 150 guests for a sit-down occasion. It is equipped with a dance floor, a bar, and a spot for a DJ booth. There are two restrooms situated conveniently just outside the barn and a gorgeous ready room for the bride and her friends to relax before the ceremony. For those who wish to be closer to nature, or have a larger guest count, an acre of outdoor space is available to set up a tent for dinner. Just beyond this ceremony site, a lavender field presents plenty of opportunities for photos and more. In 2019, an additional seven acres of land was seeded with wild flowers, completing a versatile event location. Lavender Shores Farm also provides clients with the option of camping in a designated area for tents and RVs.
Services Offered
When renting the event space at Lavender Shores Farm, hosts can make use of restroom facilities as well as bar and DJ areas. Items available to rent include mason jars, a handmade wooden head table, signage, centerpieces, and tablecloths. Clients may also request fresh and fragrant lavender bouquets for their event. Should couples wish to offer camping accommodations to their wedding party or guests, Dan and Christine are happy to discuss possible options.

A once and a lifetime dream!
The best venue by far!
First of all, they are so diligent in all of their work. They were always telling us that they added this or that to the venue leading up to our big day. They genuinely love what they do in my opinion and they just want you to be happy and are constantly adding new additions to their venue, like the sunflowers!
They were great communicators leading up to the wedding, any time I had a question or a worry, they were there to help us via email or phone call. On the actual wedding day, they checked in throughout the night to make sure we were OK and even when I had a small request, they jumped right on it, willing to try things that no one else had ever requested. These are genuinely good people which is really hard to find nowadays!
The venue ceremony site is absolutely gorgeous and everything you will ever need. They were willing to move anything around however, we needed it to be. We decided to have them provide all of the plating and silverware and it was so beautiful and so wonderful, definitely worth it ! The barn is so conveniently set up with a place for a bartender and a DJ and everything worked out so perfectly. The owners helped us with plugs and informed us that they could make anything work as far as our decorations. They definitely made you feel welcome, comfortable, and they made you feel like they were excited for your wedding !
We had guests who are not outdoorsy people who even mentioned that this would be the type of venue they would’ve picked even though they didnt like outdoor weddings. Every one of our guests said how cool this venue was, and I really feel like all of our guest really had such a fun time because this was such a unique and beautiful venue. There are a lot of barn venues out there, we definitely looked around, but this one is the absolute best.
the lavender field was beautiful, the sunflowers were so beautiful, there’s a really cool tent area for the boys to get ready and. The bridal suite is so cute and the bathrooms were clean and so rustic chic. This venue is conscious about using nontoxic, hand, soaps, making sure that plastics and other items are recycled, and making sure that they keep the property clean. We invited 120, but have a lot of out of state family. 88 came and that was very spacious and comfortable. There’s lots of room for even bigger weddings for sure. If I ever hosted another large event, even if it wasn’t a wedding, I would definitely book this place if I could!
During our ceremony herons were flying over us, there were butterflies flying around, this place is booming with wildlife. No matter where you looks you just see beautiful open land, behind the venue and even in from of, which is so hard to find! The most perfect spot ever. There are some wonderful places to stay the night in for guests who are traveling, we stayed at the Wipp Inn Cottages and had guests stay at the Last Chance motel, Cadillac inn. If you are considering this venue, please reach out to them, make an appointment to go see it and meet the owners. You will not regret it!
This is the perfect venue for anyone who loves the outdoors, and also anyone else who isn’t big on the outdoors. I have never worked with people, more professional, kind, and passionate about what they do.
Amazing venue & owners
They treated me like family & went above & beyond their contracted duties. They made wedding planning easy & were always quick to respond.
Great value, especially for the cost!
I would book this place over & over again in a heartbeat. Thanks, from the bottom of my heart! -The Kains
