Bright House Studio is a hidden gem in the Kalamazoo/Portage area. We rented space on a weekday for my sister's birthday party. We were so pleasantly surprised by the beauty of the house and their ability to personalize it to match just about any theme. The host was so helpful and accommodating! Their communication is great! I threw this together at the last minute and they did everything they could to make it even more exciting than I could imagine. The space has so many unique aspects and the lighting is so cool inside. We booked during the Halloween season, so it's perfect if you ever have that as a theme. They have the ability to transform it for any occasion. The host even put together a photo slideshow to be displayed on the wall and made us feel so welcome! We absolutely loved our experience here and look forward to our next opportunity to rent this beautiful space!
I recently hosted my 2nd event at Bright House Studio! It was for my dad's 60th surprise birthday party and it went flawlessly! I can't rave about the owners enough! They go above and beyond to make sure your event or celebration is special. Bryan even created a video for me of pics of my dad over the years and it was so nice. I sent him a link to a digital album of the photos I wanted to use and he did all the work! My dad loved it so much that he wanted a copy of it! Bryan even sent me a link to download the video so that my dad could have a copy. Bryan also made sure that everything was fit to our theme, and added extra thoughtful details that I never would have thought of! He even helped me set up and put together a balloon arch! Just amazing and special is all I can say! Book with them and you won't be disappointed! They will always have my business because of their amazing customer service!
I appreciated the varied rooms in the house, beautiful grounds, great communication, attention to details, and tips, assistance and flexibility Bryan contributed to the event. Gina and Bryan know how to make it happen. Thank you!
We have had two events at Bright House a gender reveal and a graduation open house both were absolutely perfect! Bryan helped make both events a total success and made sure everything was perfect! He helped with making sure decor was all done as we wanted as well as ensuring seating and table arrangements were set up to best fit our needs. I would highly recommend the is space for anyone looking to host your next event they take all the stress out of it so you can enjoy it as well as your guests and will try to help accommodate in any way they can to ensure your event is perfect! Thank you again!
Held a celebration of life for my dad and I didn't want it to feel like a funeral and it was so amazing and the vibes were great. The process was really nice, Gina and Bryan were so helpful, amazing, and friendly. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone and everyone for whatever event you would want to have.
I have booked Bright House Studio for an office Christmas party, husband's 45th birthday and daughter's 12th birthday. Each event was so nice. I really loved the decor and lighting for each event. The house is so inviting and cozy. Each experience was wonderful, and I highly recommend this venue. Staff is very friendly and have a great eye for detail.
This space was amazing! Absolutely perfect for what we needed. Gina was amazing at communication throughout the entire process. Bryan went above and beyond to accommodate our event. He made sure that everything was exactly how we wanted it to be. Thank you so much Bryan and Gina.
I highly, highly recommend Bright House Studio for your next small event! The property and building are beautiful, and super clean! I hosted a baby shower at Bright House Studio this past weekend and everything was perfect! Bryan and Gina are so accommodating and great to work with! Book your next event with them, you will not be disappointed!! We are already planning our next event at Bright House Studio!
Bright House was a fabulous location for the bridal shower that I hosted for my niece. Gina and Bryan were very helpful throughout the entire process! Bryan was present the day of the shower and was extremely accommodating and helpful! The venue was clean and spacious! We loved that we could change the color of the lighting through out the venue and easily stream in music. I would recommend this venue for anyone looking for a place to host a party or an event!
Praises for this event space! Hosted a bridal shower here for 30 people. Gina took away any stress, as she was super prompt in responding to questions and worked with me every step of the way. Place is VERY clean and has a nice assortment of different rooms that we used for food, beverages, dessert station, plus the main large area for guests. Bryan was on site during setup and day of, he had wonderful suggestions for how the space could best accommodate our guests. Have a projector, sound system and fun lighting that he tailored to the shower. Outdoor area had a beautiful waterfall that was great for photos! Had many attendees singing praises for the space, and I was absolutely thrilled to work with such professional people! Give them a try; you won’t be disappointed!
Loved hosting our event here, Gina and Bryan were great to work with and super accommodating and flexible!

THE VENUE: We held my daughters baby shower here and the space is so perfect. The large gathering space was set up lovely and there is a large kitchen area for food prep. The lounge area is great for one on one conversations and the dining area made a great Euchre Table. :) THE HOSTS: ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. Brian and Gina were so attentive to every detail. They are responsive and so invested in making sure your event goes off perfectly. Thank you for an amazing day!
I booked Bright House Studio for my husband's 45th birthday party after attending an office Christmas party at the venue. I was so pleased with both of my experiences. The venue is so cozy, warm and inviting. This is a wonderful and versatile space for any occasion. I especially loved all of the colorful illuminations after dusk.
We had an awesome time. The place was beautiful and very convenient.
Wonderful people, so helpful! A beautiful venue! Everyone who attended was complimenting the Studio!
We hosted a Halloween themed Baby Shower in the evening. The programable lighting and sound system set the mood. We set up tables for 30 and it was a little snug. It worked out well to use the hearth for gifts, the bar for food and the stage for gift opening. The wall by the fireplace made a nice photo backdrop with the decorations we brought. I thought an hour wouldn't be enough time to set up, but it was plenty. The food prep area was conveniently close, but separate enough to keep the messy stuff away from the party. The amenities in the bathroom were appreciated and a fun topic of conversation (go check them out.) Gina made access to the building easy and she was helpful with all of the booking arrangements. There were amenities we didn't get to use: the fireplace, the projector, the outdoor areas, but I can see how great they would have been for a different party. Would rent again.
I booked Bright House Studio for my daughter's baby shower. Gina and Bryan are SO helpful and accommodating! We had an unexpected loss and had to move days like a week and a half before the event, luckily there was nothing booked and Gina had to issue moving me days. I had a really late night the night before the shower and Bryan helped me unload all the boxes into the house and ended up putting together our big play pen for the babies for me while I put together the balloon arch/banner area! They were both ready and willing at any time to answer any questions I had or change the floor plan etc. We all had a good time. It's very affordable compared to some other places I checked into. I would definitely recommend Bright House Studio to anyone hosting any get together.
They was so good to us the place was more then expected they gentlemen help us out so much with seting up ND alot extra was so amazing the house is so beautiful I will be back there for my venue amd family gathering we appreciate you guys so much you definitely see the McElvain family again
