"Mission point was very accommodating and easy to work with. They are one of the few hotels on the Island that are dog friendly and will provide a backup incase of bad weather. Our coordinator Lindsey was absolutely amazing, she responded to emails quickly which made it easy planning for a Mackinac Island wedding in Detroit. She worked with my husband and I to even accommodate our dog that was in our wedding. All the staff was absolutely amazing Lindsey to the wait staff and bartenders. Don’t get me started on how amazing the food was and if you can go to the Mission Point wedding show like we did it helps with the rest of the vendors you may need for your special day let alone to sample the food Mission Point has to offer. I would recommend Mission Point for not only a wedding but any event."

"My fiancé and I always wanted to get married on the island, but we weren’t sure where. We looked at Mission Point and both fell in love! Everyone involved made it so easy!!! The day of our wedding the weather wasn’t the best, but without missing a beat the were able to make the indoor ceremony and reception wonderful! Everyone was obsessed with the food as well as the extras (cider/donut bar and pizza). Absolutely would recommend to anyone!! "

"Our wedding at Mission Point was just perfect!!! We were married in August and had our reception on the Promenade Deck. The view of the lake was gorgeous and the flowers around the venue were beautiful. We worked with Lindsey Marks and she was fabulous. She was always available, always helpful, and always pleasant. We had a cocktail hour and a sit-down dinner and the food was excellent. Our guests were very complimentary and we were very pleased. It was a wonderful experience."

"Mission Point Resort went above and beyond to make our wedding day exactly how we wanted it to be. They worked well with our outside vendors and got everything set up perfectly. Their staff was there will the answers to all the questions we had. They truly made it feel like we were their top priority, even when there were several weddings happening that day at Mission Point. I would recommend Mission Point Resort to anyone. We had our ceremony at the Gazebo and our reception in Cypress Room (all their other reception locations were amazing as well!). "
