LGBTQ+ couples tell us the same thing: This place feels like home.
For many couples, choosing a wedding venue is about more than aesthetics. It is about safety, celebration, and belonging. It is about finding a place where love is honored exactly as it is. For LGBTQ+ couples, that search often carries deeper emotional weight. You’re not just looking for a beautiful backdrop. You’re looking for a venue where your identity is seen, affirmed, and protected.
At Cornman Farms, that is not a marketing line or a statement of tolerance. It is a deeply held value woven into who we are and how we work. Over and over, LGBTQ+ couples tell us the same thing: This place feels like home.
Here’s why.
You’re not only welcome here. You’re celebrated here.
One of the most powerful pieces of feedback we’ve ever received came from someone who wasn’t even planning a wedding with us. They simply browsed our website and felt compelled to write:
“Tolerance is ok. Acceptance is better. Celebration which you clearly demonstrate is best. Visibility matters. Thank you.”
This is the heart of what makes Cornman Farms different.
We don’t quietly “allow” LGBTQ+ weddings. We proudly and publicly celebrate them. We make sure every couple looking for an inclusive Michigan wedding venue sees themselves reflected in our imagery, our language, and our vendor partners.
Your love is not treated like an exception. Your love is treated like joy.
You get a planning team that sees you, supports you, and listens with care.
LGBTQ+ couples often tell us they fear judgment or assumptions when asking questions, choosing an officiant, or navigating traditions. That disappears here.
Couples consistently share feedback like:
“Cornman’s enthusiastic commitment to supporting LGBTQ+ couples made us feel confident, supported, and excited.”
and
“You have all been such amazing help in planning the wedding of my dreams. Thank you for answering endless questions and making it so seamless.”
From your first email to your sparkler exit, our event producers and vendors make sure you feel seen, respected, and understood. You never have to explain your relationship, correct language, or guess whether you’ll be treated with dignity. You are.
Vendors who align with your values come included.
Finding LGBTQ+ inclusive vendors can be emotionally draining. At Cornman Farms, we remove that burden. Every officiant, photographer, florist, designer, and partner we work with is carefully chosen for their talent, professionalism, and heart.
Our couples say it best:
“We saved so much time trusting that Cornman could book key vendors the best of the best on our behalf.”
This matters because safety and joy go hand in hand. When every person on your wedding team is affirming and kind, you can relax. You can trust that every moment will reflect the love you’re celebrating.
A venue rooted in kindness, hospitality, and genuine human connection
Cornman Farms is a place built on people. When an LGBTQ+ couple walks in for a tour, we know that sometimes they’re wondering:
Will we be safe here?
Will people be kind?
Will anyone make this strange?
Will we be judged?
The answer is simple. You will be embraced.
One couple put it perfectly:
“We are so grateful an LGBTQ friendly place like yours exists.”
Another said:
“We knew we could trust Zingerman’s implicitly in matters ranging from sandwiches to weddings.”
Kindness is not a transaction here. It’s a culture.
Your wedding becomes a celebration of who you are as individuals and as a couple
We believe in weddings that feel personal and true to the people getting married. That means supporting nontraditional roles, honoring diverse family structures, and making space for rituals, readings, and symbolism that matter to you.
Whether you want to do a first look, skip certain traditions, rewrite your vows, blend cultural elements, or craft a ceremony that feels uniquely yours, we help you design a day that reflects your story.
Your identity shapes your wedding in the most beautiful ways. We honor that.
A setting that feels private, intimate, safe, and deeply personal
Our historic farmhouse, red barn, and flower-filled gardens offer a feeling of comfort and ease that couples often search for but rarely find. You’re tucked into a peaceful, natural environment where you can breathe deeply and be fully present.
Many LGBTQ+ couples tell us that small weddings and micro weddings are especially meaningful because they allow them to share this moment only with the people who truly support them.
Cornman Farms was built for that kind of intimacy.
You deserve a venue that cares about your joy, your safety, and your story
Your wedding should be a place where love shines without hesitation.
Where you don’t have to second-guess a look, a word, or a vendor.
Where your identities aren’t edited out or softened to make others comfortable.
Where you can simply be yourselves and feel safe doing it.
Cornman Farms is honored to be that place for LGBTQ+ couples from Michigan and beyond.
If you’re looking for an LGBTQ+ affirming wedding venue in Michigan that is beautiful, intentional, inclusive, and deeply personal, we would love to welcome you to the farm.
