The Heritage Museum and Cultural Center Overview

Whether you are looking to host a destination wedding along the shores of Lake Michigan or you're a local looking for a reception hall, the Heritage Museum is a lovely place to begin your future together. The architectural gem is located along St. Joseph’s tree-lined Main Street; and beautifully blends its Victorian past with an airy design. The result is a simple elegance that welcomes your color palette and allows you to create the ambiance you want for your day. The museums's striking balance of Victorian and contemporary elements allow you to bridge your families’ pasts with the excitement of your future — and do so as simply or elegantly as you wish. You’ll find the intimacy, or spaciousness, you want in each beautifully-appointed space. The Founders Garden is a natural setting that offers a lovely backdrop for your exchange of vows and formal portraits. It's also a great place to dance under the stars. Shephard Hall is a spacious room perfect for dining and dancing. The hall features hardwood floors, chandeliers, and a picturesque second-floor balcony. The grand piano, scenic windows, and graceful columns also contribute to the hall’s elegance. The museum's galleries will draw your guests together to share memories and enhance your celebration. Because on your wedding day, it’s this moment in time that matters most.
