Sandy and Marshall Meyer know something about wedded bliss; they celebrated their
45 th wedding anniversary in September of 2019. The secret, they would both tell you, is
that a successful marriage requires a loving and equal partnership. “We work as a
team,” Sandy says. “Everything we do here reflects our common goals.” While other
couples are winding down during their retirement years, Sandy and Marshall are revving up.
Hard work comes naturally to the Meyers. Marshall owned and operated a dairy and
grain farm for decades, before retiring and devoting himself fulltime to Lake Elsie
Wedding Barn. Sandy owned and operated a greenhouse business before moving on
to hospitality two decades ago, when she opened the Hankinson Inn and, years later,
Lady on the Lake B&B, both of which she still operates. Lake Elsie Wedding Barn
[formerly Colonel Hankinson’s Barn] opened in 2017 and is a natural extension of their
hospitality interests.
“Other people like to travel, that’s their thing, but we see the world through the
relationships we build right here with our guests.” Building relationships with and being a
part of the bride and groom’s family and friends on their momentous day is why Sandy
and Marshall do what they do. And why they love it. “We have a passion for making
others happy.” And it makes a difference. Sandy continues to hear from former brides
that her and Marshall’s support leading up to and during the wedding is what brides and
grooms remember and appreciate. Yes, we have a beautiful place,” Sandy says, “but
the human touch is what we are known for.”
