Olivia Trombley(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 15-10-2022 10.15.22 graduated bride here!! I have so so many great things to say about the myth, number one being the food was AMAZING. People are still talking about how it was the best food theyâve had at a wedding, and I have to agree! The atmosphere was so perfect for a rustic, but romantic wedding. The GM was such an angel and helped in every possible way, made sure everyone made the right steps, and when to make them. The serving staff were also very attentive, and quick about clearing peoples plates, making sure waters were refilled! The bartenders were also lovely and very kind. All around I HIGHLY recommend this beautiful hall to celebrate your wedding, not to mention the outdoor scenery made for some absolutely gorgeous photos for a fall wedding! Reviewed on 25-10-2022

I recently had my youngest daughterâs Bridal Shower and Wedding at the Myth Golf & Banquetfacility in Oakland Twp. We paid for, and attended, a food tasting (food tasting is offered afterplacing your deposit, not before) so we would know what to expect and choose the menuaccordingly. After the tasting I did sit down with the manager and discussed my hesitation andconcern with some of the food options. She assured me they had a new Chef and I would beextremely happy with the final menu. We had approximately 50 people for the bridal showerand it went well. However, when it came to the wedding it was totally a different outcome. We met with the Manager and the new chef prior to our final selections and both assured me, Iwould be very happy with the menu we picked. The bride was very clear she didnât carewhether we had a red sauce or a white sauce for the pasta, she just wanted to make sure shehad her parmesan redskin potatoes. We all smiled and the manager said âyouâll have yourparmesan red skin potatoesâ. As I arrived for the wedding I asked if everything was good andaccording to plan. The manager said âno issues, good to go.â However, things were not as weordered right off the bat. We ordered the fruit tower/display (with strawberries) and when itwas brought out it was missing the strawberries. So, I asked one of the staff members to findout why they werenât on the display. She never came back. My daughter was very specific andone of the big reasons she picked this venue was that she wanted their parmesan red skinpotatoes. Upon getting my dinner I was shocked and mortified when the parmesan red skinpotatoes were replaced, without our consent, with what looked to be small, square,undercooked (hard) breakfast potatoes (they were horrible-no better way to describe them). Iimmediately found the manager and asked where the potatoes were that we ordered and herresponse was âwe cut them upâ. Just after sitting down, my daughter (Bride), asked whypeople who required dietary restriction plates i.e., dairy free, gluten free, nut free, vegetarianetc. were in line to get their food, which was supposed to be plated and brought out directly tothem. Unfortunately, this is what the bride is worrying herself with instead of eating her dinnerand enjoying her event. I left my dinner to find the manager and questioned why the plates forthe special dietary needs of the guests were not brought out. They hesitated and then said they would get them all out. A few never received their plates, while a few others received plates that did not adhere to their dietary restrictions. Our wedding was under contract from 5:30 pm to 11:00 pm. Cleanup was from 11pm until midnight. The staff started removing our decorations, centerpieces, gifts, and personalized items early and had it condensed to one area by 10:40 pm. Guests were still on the dance floor and when they came back to the tables, their gifts were picked up and moved. This was totally unprofessional and not per our agreement. The last shuttle of the evening was booked for midnight, so the bridal party and a few guests could help us break down and load our items. Because the staff broke down our wedding way early, these guests had to sit around for about 45 minutes waiting for the shuttle to pick them up to go back to the hotel. In my opinion, the venue is pretty and the staff was pleasant. However, the food was mediocre at best and I would not recommend this place. This is a once in a lifetime event, and for me, the stress and embarrassment was certainly not worth it. Reviewed on 21-09-2023
Arielle Williams(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 23-07-2022 We were married here 23JUL2022 and I cannot begin to explain how exceptional this venue is. If you're a couple who maybe is more modern than rustic, do not be deterred by the word \"barn\" in the name-it is FAR from it. The reception space was transformed into exactly the floral dream we had in mind and the exposed beams and floor to ceiling windows just added to the ambience. There was something extremely romantic about the room as the afternoon sun set into evening. Did I mention they are fairly priced, include a modest ceremony upgrade AND offer in house catering and bar service? Our guests raved about the food, the drinks were delicious and strong, and the gourmet donut wall add-on is still talked about to this day (people even took these to-go). Jaki is the event coordinator for this venue and I have never worked with a vendor so amenable to your vision. She offered solutions and work-arounds to our many (I mean many) inquiries/change requests. The biggest perk of this venue is the indoor-outdoor space where guests are welcome to hang out either inside with the dance party or outside to enjoy the fresh air or various yard games. I can't say enough good things about this place. Book it. You won't be disappointed. Reviewed on 13-10-2022
Casey Bazarewski(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 17-07-2021 This venue was great! Everything was so easy and Jaki was so great to work with. Our guests loved the food and appetizers as well as the late night pizza from Jet's. I appreciated that they had a golf cart available for my 86-year old grandmother so she did not have to walk far to get from ceremony area to pictures and back to reception area. The bridal suite was perfect for storing our purses and other things. It was the perfect setting for a great party! Reviewed on 23-07-2021

We got married on 9/6/20 and everything turned out absolutely PERFECT. Laura was there to help every step of the way. She was flexible and creative with all of the COVID changes we had to make.

Bianca Haudek(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 08-05-2021 Laura and the team at Myth were amazing to work with for our 5/8/21 wedding. The planning process was so stressful and emotional due to covid (especially the week of the wedding as we kept receiving bad news after bad news) but this venue, Laura and the staff saved us. Not only were we able to avoid having to move our scheduled wedding date, but this venue also had outdoor accommodations which was perfect. Having the dancing on the outdoor, beautifully lit patio was even better than having it indoors because it was bigger! The warm lighting everywhere was just beautiful. Laura was always extremely receptive and quick to respond to all of my texts and emails. Iâm sure sheâs used to handling us emotional brides ;) To avoid crowds at the bar, staff was instead serving drinks all night to the guests and did a great job with that. Overall, Myth made our originally scheduled wedding possible even after making some adjustments due to covid and I canât thank them enough for that. Reviewed on 18-05-2021
Ryann Daigler(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 10-10-2020 Literally perfect. This venue is absolutely breathtaking. My wedding was originally in June, and I am so glad it was pushed back to October because it is BEAUTIFUL in the reception room at night time. Our dancefloor was on the patio due to COVID, which was actually a riot. Laura was so accomodating, start to finish. She literally bent over backwards and gave me what ever I wanted. Whenever I started feeling all bridezilla, she brought me back to earth. Also, her staff on my wedding night was on fire. We weren't allowed to have a 'bar' because of crowding/covid, so I was worried about my guests being able to have quick drink service from the waitstaff. Let me tell you, drinks were appearing in our hands without us even asking. YES YES YES 100x I WOULD DO MY WEDDING HERE AGAIN YES!!! Reviewed on 15-10-2020

Tamara Paye(parent)1 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 08-06-2019 They make their own rules!Rented this venue for a wedding that is 6 hours but the lights go on and the music must stop at 11:30 pm so they can clean up. Vargo's other banquet facility, Golden Hawk, gives you the venue for the entire 6 hours and lights go on at 12. Laura neglects to tell you everything like the cake is served on plastic plates with plastic forks and only for an additional $5 per person will she bring it to the tables. They brought the cut cake out before the bride and groom had even cut the cake. The bride asked her the night of the wedding if someone will carry the plates for herself and the groom and she responded that she wasn't going to do it, which is quite rude. She continually states that she has done a lot of weddings and no one has complained. I believe that is a lie! Her attitude is less than anyone would expect when paying for a service. Her staff is very young and at any given time there was only one person tending bar for 150 guests. Beware that she has exclusive vendors you must use. Reviewed on 12-06-2019

Veronique Mosby(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 21-10-2017 This post is long overdue (married 10.21.17); however, want to share what a fantastic experience my husband and I had with Laura at Myth, and planning our wedding day. I was never a girl who dreamed of a wedding - honestly, I thought I would elope. But, one look at Myth, and the notion of eloping was out the window. The reception area is beautiful with the exposed wood beams, and the outdoor area is exceptional. Here's the thing, as someone who never dreamed of a wedding, Laura was able to show me the way! She was always so calm and offered great advice. Laura readily pointed out where we could save money instead of pushing for more, which we really appreciated. Six months later - people still mention something to me about the food! I can't remember eating but my guests gushed about it. Two negative feedback - but would not change from a five start rating - the dance floor is a little small and there is not a large enough bathroom for a Bride, her dress and the Bridesmaids!

Amanda Bride(bride)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 06-10-2017 We very much enjoyed our experience with Myth. The venue is beautiful, relaxed, and unique. We had rave reviews from our guests about the food, and how excellent it was. The servers and bartenders were helpful and attentive. We did not see much of the manager, Laura. Unfortunately, she is our only complaint and why we decided not to go with 5 stars. We had amazing DJ's who kept us on track with the timeline, without them I'm not sure how the night would have gone! We saw her at the beginning of the event when lining up for the ceremony, and seemed to be MIA until she began to break down tables DURING our reception. I come from a back round working in a venue, we always waited until the very end of the event to break down tables, or bring out additional ones. We had the venue booked until 12am, and servers were being directed to take things down and add more tables for the following night's event around 10:30pm. Granted it was towards the end of the night, and we had a smaller sized wedding, I still found it rude to begin these tasks while our guests were still enjoying the night with us. I was very much more of a laid back bride, so I didn't totally notice her absence until watching her prep for another wedding during my own. If you need more service, attention, or direction make it known with her when booking to hope she'll be more involved in your event and the smooth running of a timeline. Reviewed on 16-10-2017

The food at both events was delicious! The venue is very beautiful on its own. From the \"barn look\" and the huge open windows looking out into the golf course and the cute Christmas lights wrapped around the beams. It has a very romantic feeling which is what I was going for. The dance floor seems small but it was really perfect and gave a feeling of it being \"packed\" when few people were dancing so it never looked empty.

The cost was more than fair, and we had a lot of \"included\" amenities (including things I wouldn't have thought of) that just made the day that much better.And seeing it all come together?

The coordinator was rushing the pictures and ending up driving away in the golf cart without my photographer so my photographer had to ride on the back of a golf cart with my matron of honor and a bridesmaid. Other rude things happened between the photographer and coordinator. The coordinator should have been more professional and asked me what I wanted to do about the pictures.

Chelsea Prudhomme(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 11-05-2013 I can't say enough about the Myth and their staff. We had our wedding 2 weeks ago and even with the drastic change in weather, Laura and her staff pulled off the outdoor ceremony perfectly. No thanks to my wedding planner, the venue still looked amazing and all the staff at the Myth did a wonderful job getting the location ready. I had set up a lot of our decor the day before (Laura gives you all the flexibility to set up you could dream of) and with some finishing touches the day of the reception it looked fantastic. It's the PERFET location for a bride who's looking for that rustic/vintage theme but doesn't want to force family to drive all the way up north or to one of those scarcely located Barns around the state. (You also have heat / air conditioning!! LOL The prices we GREAT and the food was raved about! We had an excellent buffet set up and people couldn't stop talking about how great it was. The few fears we did have were the dance floor being small but come wedding day it was actually the perfect size and we had over 200 people! Their preferred vendors that we happened to use were great and the venue itself is just fantastic. The closest to the pin contest didn't go over as well with the weather but if it had been nicer it would have been a highlight as well. We even had a guest get a hole in one!! IT was GREAT!
