Welcome back to Tasteful Thoughts! We love Wednesdays specifically because we get to provide you with some of our most favorite trade secrets, recipes, ideas, etc.
On today’s session of Tasteful Thoughts, we thought we would share something a little abstract (as it has very little to do with food), but valuable and potentially fitting nonetheless! Today, we talk about the Longacre House!
What is the Longacre House, you ask? Well, it’s only the best venue to host your special event in Southeastern Michigan, if we do say so ourselves ;)
The Longacre House isn’t just flooded with history and wonder, but it’s also a beautifully intimate venue where you and your guests can really enjoy and gather together for your occasion. From the running stonewall fence to the lush gardens, the historical Longacre House offers charm and elegance like no other. Their doors are open to weddings, theme parties, receptions, showers, business meetings, banquets, social gatherings, and more!
To be as accommodating as possible, the Longacre House also has a specialty package for events like bridal and baby showers. Take a look:
