Laura Doto(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 05-09-2021 Wow am I happy with our wedding at Kings Court Castle and Canterbury Village! My husband and I chose Kings Court for its unique charm (we’re huge Lord of the Rings and Game of Thrones fans) and the affordable price. We happened to be one of the many couples impacted by COVID, and had to postpone our wedding twice before having our big day on September 5, 2021. Angela, the event coordinator at Kings Court, was super supportive every step of the way. She never gave us trouble the multiple times we asked to move our date. Sometimes it would take a few days to get an email response back, but I attribute this to how busy the staff was navigating event planning during the pandemic. On the day of our wedding, our guests were absolutely raving about how great the venue was! We got so many compliments on the food (especially those rolls!) and how cool and unique the aesthetic of the venue was. The entire evening the staff was super present and friendly, and my Dad complimented the bar tenders on the generous pours they were giving out! At the end of the evening when we were cleaning up, Angela was there to help and even hugged and congratulated us on the big day. The entire venue provided the perfect backdrop for pictures, and we even ended the night with a late-night snack from the Yate’s Cider Mill Store at Canterbury Village, a Michigan Fall staple. If you are a couple looking for a unique and memorable wedding venue and quality service without going into serious debt, Kings Court Castle is the go-to in metro Detroit. Thank you to Angela and the entire staff at KCC for helping make mine and my husband’s wedding a dream come true! Reviewed on 10-09-2021

Rachel A(bride)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 29-09-2019 Kings Court Castle was a great venue for our wedding. I loved the castle look from the moment I stepped in. I also liked the barn look of the chapel. We did end up getting a 5 foot wide aisle runner as the carpet was kind of dirty looking. We also got a rug to cover the tile during the ceremony as the tile looked broken in spots and a little dirty as well. We made it look beautiful for our ceremony. At the first food tasting the good was so so but they were incredibly accommodating and helped us create a menu that our guests love. The reception was great and the hall is beautiful! The only other thing that was tough for me was that no one was allowed in to KCC before 10 am. This caused some stress as at 10 am I was getting ready. My mom and my aunt's had to go to and set up the hall but it all worked out. Overall I would highly reccommend KCC. Angela was very responsive and helpful and did all she could to make it the best day ever for us!! Reviewed on 19-10-2019
Megan Niner(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 09-08-2019 This was the perfect venue for our big day! Angela, the new lady who handles the weddings is stellar. She's friendly, understanding, and quick to answer any little questions you have leading up the the wedding. The wedding day went smoothly, the staff on site was professional and friendly and the food was amazing. They provided generous portions to my gluten free party members who couldn't stop gushing over how good the food was. Our only complaint was pretty mild from a little lack of communication: when we had booked the venue, there had been a piano in the chapel, but something happened to it and they're working to get a new one. We found this out the day before, during rehearsal. Bottom line: still highly recommended. Reviewed on 24-08-2019

We did have a couple of snafus with some plans that we'd made, a staffing change right before our wedding and no staff present during our rehearsal ending up with us being locked out on a cold night. While I didn't feel like the staff was very apologetic, we were still able to have our perfect wedding day. The grounds and property are beautiful and were a beautiful backdrop for our photos.

Melissa Stevenson(bride)3 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 06-10-2018 While the prices and packages are affordable we had several issues with this venue from start to finish. In the beginning there were several mix ups with our appointment time for a menu tasting, because we weren't going to book a venue before trying food as my husband is a chef. While they gave us a few price breaks for the mix ups it should have been a warning sign to us. Closer to the wedding date, there was a lot of scrambling to get our list turned in and the prices completed for payment. Then when my father called to bring the payment he is told the receptionist cannot accept it. All still pretty small things. We were told we could get in at 10 am the day of the wedding to set up and decorate the reception hall and chapel. While that was wonderful, when we pay a cleaning fee as did everyone else, it was a shock what my bridesmaids walked into. The reception hall was trashed, there were buckets to catch water dripping from the ceiling. Floor was dirty, trash was everywhere under tables, on window sills, on tables, etc. No skirting was even ready on the head table and some of the table cloths were dirty even. The chapel also needed to be vacuumed and cleaned. Thankfully I never heard a word of it until after the wedding because my bridesmaids didn't want me to worry. Once the day started, everything was going pretty well and I was just ecstatic to be marrying my best friend. That is when the other issues arose, which when I brought to the event planners attention after I was told there was nothing they could do and sorry for your luck basically. Now, at venues that have multiple halls wedding crashing is possible. Not only did we have wedding crashers but thieves. They came in and used the photo booth, stole the guys props, helped themselves to my open bar and walked off each time they left with cake. I put a stop to them myself and my bridal party went on the hunt for ANY staff members period. Now, when you are paying $80 a person plus some for a bar, food, etc it is very irritating that others can hop in and just help themselves because their wedding \"wasn't as fun\" as they told my husband. All in all it is a pretty good venue, but you get what you pay for. The customer service and accommodations just aren't really there in concerns to really paying attention to details and making sure its clean and ready for the next event. Communication is also poor between most people there so it is just a mess across the board for things like that. I was happy with my day but shocked with the lack of care and concern from the venue about holding up their end of matters. It felt kind of like \"well we got your money already so tough\".

We absolutely loved how our wedding turned out at King’s Court Castle. The only downside to this venue was little to no participation by the vendor. While they were responsive it often took a while, and there was absolutely no one there to assist with day of concerns. The ladies’ bathroom flooded the day of and they put a sign out however it was like pulling teeth to get in touch with someone. The one of the two bartenders were extremely rude to guests, my parents, and myself. The look of the venue was enough for us to overlook this and we still have people telling us how much. They loved the rolls!! Reviewed on 03-10-2018

They were so accommodating and helped set out or doughnuts for the doughnut bar. We were in the King Richard room and it was so cozy and decorated for Christmas helping with the winter rustic feel of our wedding. The grounds are beautiful and we got amazing pictures.

No dessert plates brought out - they cleared food before everyone ate. They said the food was ready for bridal party - it was not - THE BANQUET MANAGER ATE OUR FOOD.

Lexi Adams(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 18-11-2018 As a bride who recently had their wedding at Kings Court Castle, I take offense to the venue being called “cheap & a dirty dump. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but to make false overly exaggerated comments is unnecessary. My wedding was not cheap, & the venue was no where close to being a “dirty dump”. My ceremony was in the chapel not a shack, our wedding pictures behind the stained glass were beautiful. The staff was more then helpful, professional & lovely to work with. There was no issue with the restrooms what so ever the day of my event, in fact it looked like they were cleaned right before our arrival! Everyone has their own opinion when it comes to food. You will never please all your guests considering everyone has different tastes. I received several compliments from my wedding guest on how beautiful/unique & different my wedding was. They were impressed with the grounds, venue, & the convince of having the village with a verity of things to do! I personally feel bad for the bride who had this person stand up in the wedding.

They really took all the stress out of having to plan a wedding. Everything is located onsite. My guests were able to show up for my ceremony in the Wedding Chapel & walk over to our reception. They were able to walk around Canterbury Village while we took our wedding pictures. We used flowers of the forest for our beautiful wedding arrangements. The best part is they are also located on site. For a late night snack Yates brought over cider and donuts, making it super easy for us considering they are apart of the village. You can’t beat the prices this truly unique wedding venue has to offer. Looking at other venues we got discouraged by pricing. With Kings Court Castle we were able to afford our dream wedding, with out loosing out on the quality of the food and great service. Thank you again Kings Court staff!!!

Kings Court Castle needs to hire better help. When we arrived, beer bottles from the night before were left on the ground, Vomit was left on the floor, tables were not set up, puddles of who-knows-what were all over the floor. The chapel's heat was not turned on, and the girl was vacuuming the carpet only hours before the wedding. My daughter, the bride, asked if the stage could be cleaned as there were dead bugs all over it, they gave her a broom, and she cleaned it herself. After the wedding, we were then informed we had to clean up the flower petals, so we had to clean the room before and after, what was the fee that we paid used for? At the reception the food was not ready when we were suppose to start, and they ran out of food. About a third of our guests did not get any chicken or beef.

There was tons for our guests to do between the ceremony and reception which definitely helped with planning and everyone's excitement. We ended up working with 3 different event managers which made things complicated. Each person we worked with had their own ideas - had I not been an event manager by trade it may have been more frustrating. The first manager we worked with discussed specific things with us that would be done and when the final manager began working with us she said they weren't possible.Fast forward to the night of and Crystal was AMAZING!

We had a TERRIBLE experience with them on a professional as well as service level. Brittany was unfriendly and unwelcoming from the get go but ignoring better judgement I booked the venue anyway. We were on a short timeline as we got engaged 12/31/15 and wanted a fall wedding. We booked with King's Court in February and were so excited to have a ceremony and reception location! Emphasis on \"were so excited\". We went to our food tasting and the FOOD WAS AWFUL. Please ask me for photos, I have them. The filet looked like ground hamburger, the chicken was dry, poor quality and saturated in sauce. I am not a picky eater by any means but it was TERRIBLE. My fiances salad at the tasting had a dead fruit fly on it. We expressed our concerns to Brittany and she suggested an additional tasting, we agreed but also inquired (in a polite way) about a possibility of outside catering. I kid you not, this was the email I received after ASKING about the possibility of outside catering:Hi Sarah,I just had a response back from my General Manager, and it has been decided it would be in both parties best interest that we return your deposit and void the contract that you have with us.From all of us here at King’s Court Castle we wish you and Ben the best of luck in your future!Sincerely,They cancelled on us, less than 6 months before our wedding.

I got married in spring but any time of year this venue would make for such a romantic ambiance, one that every bride should experience on her wedding day! The food was great and the King Richard room was a wonderful place with access to the outside for a nice breath of fresh air after dancing the night away. Our guests got to enjoy the C-Pub while waiting for cocktail hour. After hearing nothing but everyone having such a great time, I can't recommend this place enough! A true five star all around!

Margaret Hoffman(bride)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 21-08-2015 We really loved the scene at Canterbury Village and we liked that our guests could hang out at the C-Pub in between our ceremony and cocktail hour. The venue and village offer entertainment and a beautiful backdrop for wedding pictures. The ceremony space, The Chapel, was a perfect mix of rustic and elegance. The reception space was easy to decorate because you don't need much in a beautiful ballroom. The only part of our experience that was less than a 5 star was that our event coordinator was switched in the middle of our planning and she had no experience and was at bit frustrating, maybe she was a little overwhelmed. Our food tasting could have been more organized, but the food was very good! At the end of the day, Canterbury staff and managers came through with flying colors and made our night amazing.

Sarah Weimert(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 15-08-2015 This venue was absolute perfection for our wedding! The chapel was beautiful. The atmosphere and the staff were both so welcoming and friendly. Our reception hall was the King Richard room, and having the porch off of the room was perfect for our guests. The wedding coordinator Brittany was so helping in accommodating us with any and all requests from special meals to special drinks for our guests! Absolute perfection! Highly Recommended. 👍🏼 Reviewed on 01-09-2015

When my now mother in law and I went looking for halls she knew I wanted a hall that wasn't the \"traditional\" wedding hall. I didn't want a long area where the wedding party sat up high in front of everyone. As soon as we walked into Kings Court Castle I knew I wanted my wedding there. I was just hoping that the hall was what I was looking for. The entrance is amazing then the King Richard room was also amazing! The night of the wedding my husband and I received hands on service and were waited on by the staff so attentively. They allowed me to hand hands on actions with the lighting of the room and adjust the brightness to how I wanted it. I was nervous about the food but after dinner I was surprised to say the least because I am a very picky eater and I also have a gluten allergy. They catered to the few guests and myself with this allergy and made us a portables and grilled veggie meal that was very tasty. The other guests and my husband also made very positive comments about the dinner food. We also ordered late night pizza and I was astonished at how good the gluten free pizza was. I heard the regular pizza was also very good. Overall, were there a few hiccups... Yes... were they life altering and ruined my wedding.... NO!!!! I would recommend this venue to anyone and the quality of service was nice as well!!!! Reviewed on 14-08-2015

Sara Platek(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 22-06-2014 KCC was a wonderful venue for our wedding. Everyone was so accommodating!!! Everything we asked for we got and they even offered things we never thought to ask for. The food was very good. The venue and chapel have a beautiful antique feel that didn’t leave much need for extra decorating. All of our guests enjoyed the village while waiting for the reception doors to open. The carousel was such a fun photo session! The staff was great even assisted with a drunk guest at the end of the night and handled it all so well. There were a few problems the day of but most everything was responded to quickly…I brought in my own gluten free dessert for some of my guests and it must have been dropped and they brought in a replacement for them immediately. And one of my tables didn’t have enough chairs again they fixed it quickly. My only complaint was the delay in getting out the cake (we had to ask twice) and the very dark parking lot at the end of the night. Everything else was so perfect my complaints were barely complaints. All in all it was a great venue, great staff and great ambiance! I would definitely recommend this venue!! Reviewed on 20-07-2014

We also had our ceremony in their chapel...it's a renovated barn from the 1880s and it's AMAZING. it still has the bar ceiling...but stunning stained glass up front. it was perfect for our rustic, fall wedding.

The food was delicious (MANY of my guests said it was the best wedding food they've ever had!), the drinks weren't watered down (thanks to Rebecca behind the bar!), the hall was immaculately cleaned and ready for us to set up, and everything was beautiful.

Ashley Boys(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 27-07-2013 KCC is such a nice place to have a wedding. It's so picturesque with lots of areas to get beautiful and unique photos. Coordinating my 7/27/13 wedding with Crystal at KCC was very easy and she was so accommodating. We had our rehearsal in the chapel the night before the wedding, and they provided us with a ceremony coordinator, Jenna, which we had not know they were going to do. She was such a huge help. I was a sobbing basket case at my rehearsal because I was so stressed out, and she helped me feel a little bit calmer and reassured me that everything would go as planned. I don't know what I would have done if she wasn't there. The waitstaff at KCC were very prompt and attentive at both our rehearsal dinner and at our actual reception. The food was delicious (we used the Affordable Elegance package, which meant we had very limited food choices, but they were excellent so I didn't even care!). The reception hall was gorgeous. Basically, everything was great. This is a perfect place for a wedding. Reviewed on 14-09-2013

Crystal in the office did such a great job helping me thru the months leading up to the wedding, putting my mind at ease about everything. Dave, the events manager that night, did a fantastic job getting the hall ready and switching out a table when I asked him to. Everything went GREAT!!! \r\rI HIGHLY recommend this place to anyone planning a wedding. Their prices are fantastic and they just take care of their wedding couples so well! :) Reviewed on 09-09-2013

We held the ceremony in the chapel and had the reception in the banquet hall. The food was great, and the atmosphere was exactly what we were looking for. My only complaint is that I asked for sparkling apple cider for the toast instead of champagne, but we got regular apple cider which looked kind of gross in the glasses. There was also a bit of confusion regarding telling them who had what meal. Other than that, it was great. Reviewed on 03-09-2012

Kathy Hoffman(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 09-06-2012 King's Court Castle was an absolutely beautiful venue and PERFECT for our wedding! You can have your ceremony either in the beautiful chapel with stained glass windows or outside in their gazebo (we had ours in the gazebo). The reception halls located on site are absolutely GORGEOUS, with intricate woodworking and grand staircases. The food was delicious...the guests raved about it!! But the BEST part of the experience was working with Linda Suzore, the event planner there. She was A-Mazing!! I don't think the word \"no\" was a part of her vocabulary!! Everything we needed, she provided AND THEN SOME! One of our glass cylinders for our sand ceremony broke the day of the wedding and she had 3 different ones available that we could choose from. She brought over Mimosas for us as we were getting ready, and pitchers of beer for the guys. She kept everything running ontime and smoothly and was on top of making everything look spectacular. I cannot even believe someone this thorough and amazing exists. She was PERFECT!!! Reviewed on 27-06-2012

When my fiance and I toured the Castle and Chapel in October, I fell in love. My mind started racing with all of the pictures I wanted to take in the scenic little village. We checked a couple other venues after that, but I just felt disappointed at the prospect of using them. \r\rThe food was GREAT - we didn't have a tasting, so I was a little concerned that it might turn out nasty, but it was delicious, and my husband and I were both very pleased. The service was attentive and the price was reasonable, considering the prices of other venues and what you get with KCC (our $44/person package included bar and other perks). \r\rThe event coordinator, Linda, was also very accommodating, and willing to work with us based on our needs and our budget. She made sure the entire day went smoothly, and we were not bothered with anything day of. I really appreciated the efforts of her and her staff.\r\rI did have a slight panic attack further along in the planning, when I thought I was going to blow my budget away (I was holding myself to $10,000, and the Castle was a little over half of that, which is disproportionate according to the budget planners,) but I worked it out, and if I had it to plan again, I would choose KCC without hesitation. I loved it! Reviewed on 24-04-2012
