3. One Place. Your Wedding Estate. All the Vibes.

Emerson Fields feels like five venues in one: a private lake, gorgeous green spaces, a modern white venue, a covered pavilion, and a cozy suite to hang with your crew. It’s secluded enough for privacy + golden hour magic, but right off the highway, so your guests don’t need a compass and hiking boots to find it.

Translation: One location, endless content. Zero travel headaches.

2. A Full Weekend, Not a Rushed Rental.

This is our signature package. It’s your entire wedding weekend, which means more time with your people, time to breathe, and way more memories. Host a welcome party, get ready in naturally lit suites, take your time, and truly enjoy the build-up to your wedding day.

Translation: It’s giving main character energy all weekend long. Quote: “I forgot the wedding was even the next day, we were having so much fun.” (Britta, past bride from Illinois)

6. Real People. Real Support.

Our team is actually here for you. We text back. We cheer you on. We remember your dog’s name. And we’re there when you need backup or ideas—no ghosting, no attitude, no surprises. Communication super-heroes on our team!

Translation: We’re not just venue owners. We’re your wedding ride-or-dies.

4. Designed for Photos. Built by a Photographer.

Most venues are adapted TO weddings. Emerson Fields was intentionally built FOR them, specifically for how they look and feel in your wedding day photos. From the lighting in your bridal suite to the background at the altar, we thought about how your wedding will look on film—because your photos are forever.

Translation: You won’t need filters or fake backdrops. It’s that good IRL.

5. Flexible Vendor Freedom—with a Solid Safety Net

Bring your own vendors if you want—no weird restrictions here. Or opt for our Vendor Package, where you get tried-and-true pros who already know the space, the timeline, and each other. Less decision fatigue. More trust.

Translation: You get the freedom or the done-for-you peace of mind. Your call.

To lighten your planning load, we provide a wide range of complimentary furnishings like tables and chairs—and on the big day, our team will be on-site to ensure every detail runs seamlessly.

It’s truly an honor to be part of your love story. We promise to care for you, your guests, and our space with the same dedication that’s made Emerson Fields such a special place to say “I do.”
