A Wedding in Kohler

I’ve had the absolutely pleasure and luck to work with all the girls who work within Destination Kohler, which is the umbrella over such fabulous wedding locations as The American Club, Inn on Woodlake, Whistling Straits and Blackwolf Run. All weekend, the PGA tour has been happening at Whistling Straits, so of course I’ve been up visiting family in Sheboygan and generally enjoying the hubbub of activity.

But while I was there, I continually thought of all the amazing things that could be done within the Kohler system – from gorgeous ceremonies and receptions to intimate family dinners the night before nuptials, unique experiences for guests and a hot spa for the bride and her girls to use the morning of the wedding.

What I really admire about Destination Kohler is how self contained the property is – and just how many different experiences there are waiting to be had. Beyond the great Waters Spa, there’s excellent golfing to be had between the Straits (and Irish course) and Blackwolf Run – the boys will never be bored. Of course, there’s the “Great Wall of China” that my grandfather loves to take people to see – the Kohler Design Center hosts a whole wall of brand new toilets. I never get sick of going in and seeing the new displays, dreaming that I’d have the luxurious bathrooms and kitchens that are set up inside.

You can go on a walk through the gorgeous gardens of the Club during spring and summer, or shop at Woodlake – I especially like the Craverie chocolate shop…which has so much more than chocolate.

A flashback to my childhood is at River Wildlife – a little cabin half hidden away near Blackwolf Run – that serves great food and is the perfect cozy setting for a fall event or small supper. Not only is the food excellent, but the woodsy, warm atmosphere is unlike anything I’ve ever found in Wisconsin.

Check it out – just for the experience sometime! :)
