Welcome to Graham Banquet Center

An Affordable & Charming Michigan Wedding Venue Located In Laingsburg

Instagram-Worthy Weddings 

If you’re here, you’re probably in search of an idyllic indoor/outdoor venue to say “I Do” and has everything in one location for most of your needs.  You’re looking for something that feels close to home, with modern amenities and easy access to local hotels, but surrounded by the beauty of nature.

You’ve likely pinned a few (hundred) photos for wedding inspiration and you’re searching for your ideal Michigan wedding venue.

Inspirational photos might have you dreaming big, and we see the pressure on brides today to have beautiful photos to ‘share’ after the wedding on social media. No one means to play the comparison game, but sometimes not doing so is hard.

Graham Banquet Center is the venue you didn’t think you would find. The one that’s both awe-inspiring and affordable.

See why some of our couples drive over 100 miles to book us.

Your Time Is Valuable

Make sure you’ve calculated your budget is advance before you begin touring venues.  We know how valuable your time is and want you to be scheduling tours at venues that fit your budget.  It’s important to have 3 main items first.  Cost of venue, food and bar.  Then you’ll be able to add the other items to your budget with your attire (i.e. dress, hair, make-up, nails, shoes, and jewelry), vendors (i.e. Officiant, DJ, Photographer, Videographer, Photo Booth, and Transportation).  Get creative and a Caricature Artist or Live Painting.

Michigan’s Most Inclusive Venue

We include wedding planning software that allows you to keep all your vendors on the same page with access 24/7. 

You’ll get a link to your account once you’ve booked your wedding with us by signing a contract and paying your reservation.  Then you’ll be able to begin revising your timeline, layout, select food/beverage, and see a detailed invoice.
