The wrought iron gazebo centered in the middle of the conservatory is where the ceremonies take place. There is a beautiful water fountain directly behind you as you say your vows.

Background music is played in the background during the ceremony. You are welcome to bring your own playlist and speaker set up. Mackinac also has very talented musicians that can accompany your ceremony.

Seating is provided. Due to the sensitive environment of the butterflies and plants, there is so much color and beauty that extra decorations are not needed.

Morning weddings at 8AM are very beautiful and calm. Butterflies are waking up and it is a very peaceful time of the day. You then have the whole day to start off as a married couple.

Early evening weddings are at six-thirty and are also very beautiful after we closed to the public. Everything is quieting down. You can enjoy a romantic carriage ride after your ceremony and you and your guests can have dinner at one of the many restaurants on Mackinac. So many great restaurants each with their own menu style. It is also fun to just go downtown and celebrate.
