Choosing a wedding venue is one of the biggest decisions you’ll make during the planning process, and there are a few red flags that every engaged couple should know before signing a contract. From hidden fees and confusing pricing to unrealistic guest capacities and rushed timelines, asking the right questions now can save you stress later. As a wedding venue owner, I believe couples deserve honest, transparent information so they can choose the venue that truly fits their needs—not just the one with the prettiest photos online. Your wedding day should be about celebrating, not dealing with surprises. Save this video for your venue tours and follow for more practical wedding planning advice, venue tips, and micro wedding inspiration.

Summer is officially here — and there's something about this time of year that makes everything feel a little more alive at the Schulhaus.

The outdoor arbor is lush, the evening light is golden, and we've had the privilege of celebrating some truly beautiful moments with incredible people this spring.

Whether you're in the early stages of planning, already counting down the days, or just along for the ride — we're so glad you're here.

truth is- not everyone wants a big wedding. There’s a variety of reasons people choose micro weddings over large performative weddings and it’s not always about money. More often then not it’s about connections, intimacy, and being intentional. Micro weddings might be small in size but they are huge in meaning.

Sometimes the messages that mean the most aren't the public reviews. Last night, I received a message from a bride's grandmother who took the time to find me on social media just to say thank you. She shared how much she loved the wedding day, how beautiful the venue was, and how special the memories will be for their family. As a wedding venue owner, moments like this are a reminder of why we do what we do. Yes, we provide a beautiful space. Yes, we help coordinate details. But what we're really creating is a place where families gather, celebrate, laugh, cry, and make memories they'll cherish for years to come. It's easy to focus on Google reviews, Facebook recommendations, and testimonials—but a personal message like this? That's something truly special. To Lauren, Charles, and their entire family, thank you for allowing us to be a small part of such an important day. These are the moments that make owning a micro wedding venue so rewarding. ❤️
