Where Hospitality Begins With Heart
OUR PURPOSE
At Greencrest, our purpose is to care for couples and their families with genuine love, intuitive hospitality, and unwavering intention. Every detail and every moment is guided by a desire to serve, support, and celebrate you—creating a place where you feel deeply loved and completely at home.
THE HEART BEHIND GREENCREST
Where Hospitality Becomes a Love Language.
Our couples often tell us that what they treasure most about Greencrest isn’t just the breathtaking grounds or European-inspired architecture—it’s the way they were cared for.
From the moment you walk through our doors, we want you to feel seen, supported, and valued. Whether it’s ensuring your grandparents are comfortable, anticipating needs before they arise, or simply offering warm guidance through the planning process, every gesture comes from a place of genuine love and intention.
This is hospitality that’s felt—deeply.
OUR STORY
Located in an enchanting wood just outside of Battle Creek, Michigan, lies a Midwest Estate Reimagined
Greencrest Manor began as a historic estate brimming with charm, possibility, and old-world beauty. Over time, it was thoughtfully restored and reimagined into a peaceful sanctuary for life’s most meaningful celebrations.
Our vision has always been simple: Create a place where time slows down, love is honored, and families can gather with ease and joy.
Today, couples travel from near and far to experience a wedding weekend that feels like a European escape—right here in the heart of Michigan.
MEET THE FOUNDER
Hi, I’m Jenn Ederer, owner of Greencrest Manor, and I’m thrilled you’re here.
For nearly 20 years, I’ve had the privilege of being a multi-passionate creative entrepreneur, guiding couples through some of the most joyful and memorable moments of their lives.

I knew Greencrest Manor was destined for something extraordinary the moment I set eyes on her in 2019. What I never imagined was how much this magical space would come to mean not only to our clients but also to me personally. It’s become a true haven, a place where love, connection, and joy flourish, and it’s a deep honor to offer others the opportunity to create lifelong memories here.
At the heart of everything we do is a commitment to serving others with heart and intention. As a wedding professional and industry leader with Modern Day Collective, I’ve spent nearly two decades perfecting my craft in event design and planning. My expertise lies in creating authentic, heartfelt experiences that make people feel at home. From our first conversation to the last goodbye, I’m passionate about bringing people together and helping them craft the kind of memories that stay with them forever.
Running a business that requires countless weekends and late nights away from home is no easy feat. But when you love what you do as much as we do at Greencrest, it doesn’t feel like work—it feels like purpose. I couldn’t be prouder of the amazing team behind the scenes who work tirelessly to bring each event to life. Together, we strive to create a warm, welcoming environment where our clients and their guests can truly feel at home. The care and dedication we put into every detail ensure that every experience at Greencrest Manor is as unique and meaningful as the love it celebrates.
When I’m not at Greencrest, you’ll find me spending quality time with my family, soaking in quiet moments in the garden, or enjoying live music. I’m often seeking creative inspiration through travel or savoring a great meal and conversation with friends. I truly feel blessed to live this life.
If you ever find yourself dreaming of a space where love and connection can come to life, I’d be honored to welcome you to Greencrest Manor.
