LET US MAKE YOUR 2017 WEDDING DAY DREAMS COME TRUE ON MACKINAC ISLAND!

2016 was a great year and we rang in the New Year in style on Mackinac Island! It’s that time of year when people are looking forward with great anticipation to what 2017 will bring. If you got engaged over the Holidays, “Congratulations!” And we know you’ll be making plans for your wedding day.

When my daughters got engaged, there was so much excitement, build-up and anticipation of their big day as they planned months and months in advance. They researched the perfect venues and worked tirelessly to make sure that their wedding day was perfect. And it goes without saying that having a fabulous reception with all the details being perfect was as important as their ceremony. While I watched them prepare with my wife, their sisters and bridesmaids, I had a blend of excitement as well as reflecting back in time when they were little girls and thinking of how time flies.

When you’re engaged and planning your wedding, it’s a magical time for you and your family. And there’s no more magical place to get married than on Mackinac Island. It truly is like stepping back in time for the biggest day of your life. You’ve already made your biggest decision in finding the right person you want to spend your life with. Now for the next biggest decision on your mind- “where do I get married and where do I have my dream reception?” It’s your lucky day because the perfect location for your Destination Mackinac Wedding is our very own Pink Pony Restaurant, proudly located inside The Chippewa Hotel.

Did you know that we also specialize in Wedding Receptions, Rehearsal Dinners, After Glows, Farewell Brunches and so much more? The Chippewa Hotel Waterfront and Pink Pony have three perfect locations to host your event. You can choose the outside Pink Pony Patio with seating for up to 125, the Covered Upper Deck waterfront with seating for up to 55 or our Indoor Pink Pony Dining Room with seating up to 75.
