Edsel and Eleanor Ford House and Garden: Making History

 The beautiful home of the Ford’s was made available and open
to the public in 1978 for all to see! Not only does it house gorgeous antiques
but a part of history is felt there. It sits on a fantastic 87 acres that can
hold just about any event! Especially weddings! For a beautiful outdoor
ceremony or reception or even an all indoor location to house your day in
history, the Ford House is worth looking into!

The Activities Center provides indoor accommodations
for up to 200 guest groups! They offer four

different rooms and all at discounted rates! Due to the fact
that the Ford House is non-profit, all proceeds go directly to charitable
causes for the communities benefit! What a great legacy for Eleanor Ford to
leave behind!
