"I can’t even begin to describe how magical my wedding day was thanks to the staff at The Perry. Book your wedding here! The Perry made my wedding a perfect event. They were responsive and communicative throughout the entire process from start to finish of wedding planning and all that it involves - by the end I’m pretty sure I had a 100+ email chain with Lindsey, who was so helpful and made me feel like I was the only bride she was dealing with despite the venue’s very booked wedding schedule. The food was delicious, and the staff during the event was professional and fun. The sunset view is the best in Petoskey. All of the guests I have spoken to since our wedding have told me that it was truly the best wedding they had ever been to. Thank you Stafford's Perry Hotel!"

"Having our wedding at Stafford's Perry Hotel was better than any dream wedding we could have come up with. We had to plan our wedding from NC. We booked the venue based on reviews and online pictures, hoping for the best. The venue ended up being drop dead gorgeous with the best views of Lake Michigan sunsets we had ever seen. Planning our wedding from NC, which would have been incredibly stressful in any other venue, was much less stressful because Angie made sure that everything with the venue stayed on track and promptly responded to all emails and worked with us to make my dream wedding happen, including arranging the head table in a way that had never been done before at the Perry. When it came time for the tasting, Winston, the head of food and wine, made our experience extremely memorable (no I am not going to spoil it for you) and the food tasted fantastic. As we got closer to the wedding, Jill met with us to go over the day of details and was our coordinator the day of the wedding. She made sure everything ran smoothly the day of and worked with the vendors to make sure everything coordinated seamlessly. Not only that, but the Perry added so many unexpectedly wonderful moments to our day that made it a once in a lifetime experience. All of our guests raved about the Perry and we 1000000% recommend having your wedding here. You will not regret it. We cannot thank the Stafford's Perry Hotel staff enough for giving us the best day of our lives💕💕"

HELP SPREAD THANKSGIVING CHEER TO LOCAL FAMILIES IN NEED
This marks the 21st year of the “Neighbors in Need” program. Each year, Stafford's Pier Restaurant in Harbor Springs and Stafford's Weathervane Restaurant in Charlevoix unite with their guests to feed local community families in need on Thanksgiving Day.
Today marks 22 years since the heartbreaking events of September 11th, 2001. Let’s take a few moments to honor and remember the innocent lives that were taken in those tragic acts of violence. Together we can pay tribute to those we’ve lost and renew our commitment to peace, love and understanding. 💙
