What people are saying

“ The grounds were gorgeous and the ballroom was elegant and regal. All the staff was easy to work with and easy to get a hold of. The food was absolutely FANTASTIC!!! We got tons of rave reviews from all our guests about how delicious our chosen meal was! We both had to get second helpings of those amazing braised beef short ribs and fingerling potatoes! It was a great day and thankfully we were blessed with great weather! A five star venue and surprisingly affordable! I would definitely recommend! ”

“ We got married at Bunker in July of 2019 and we had the best experience! The food was incredible, I had guests commenting on how great it was for weeks! It was affordable and if you desire, it can be a one stop shop. We had our ceremony, reception, photos, dessert, drinks, everything through Bunker! We got ready there as well. It made it so easy to have one location and one main vendor! The service was amazing both on our wedding day and throughout the planning process. The staff felt like family. I would highly recommend Bunker! ”

“ From the start Bunker Hills was amazing to work with! So accommodating and always responded quickly with multiple questions. Callie was who we planned our day with and she was fabulous! The day of the event staff were so fun and made sure everything was going smooth and that we were enjoying our day. They even helped with tear down! They did a great job! Our wedding guests said it was the best wedding they have been to. The venue and the food were amazing. People were going up for seconds and thirds! ”

“ Bunker Hills was better than I could have imagine! It was great to be able to have our ceremony and reception in one place, the outdoor ceremony area is incredibly beautiful! Unfortunately it rained on our wedding day and we had to do our ceremony indoors (and it was still stunning!) and we are so thankful Bunker has a Plan B for uncooperative weather. We received so many compliments from our guests about the delicious food. We worked with Callie while planning our wedding and she was incredible to say the least. She was always there to answer any questions we had and worked with us to make our wedding everything we could have dreamed of. ”

- Taylor & Trent

“ My husband and I were more than thrilled with our decision to use Bunker Hills for our rehearsal dinner, ceremony, and reception in June of 2018! We knew immediately after walking in that this was where we wanted to get married! Callie was so amazing to work with and so helpful. My husband and I live in Michigan and she made planning a wedding from 600 miles away so easy! She was so quick to respond to my dozens of phone calls and emails. She worked with us to plan visits and the food tasting around our schedules as we were limited with timing due to distance. The food for the reception and the rehearsal dinner was phenomenal, we are still getting compliments 4 months ... Continue Reading ”
