I attended my cousin's wedding here last week, and our whole family was very impressed! This building is an old barn that has been renovated into a banquet center. It still has the barn/farmhouse vibe that was a perfect fit for the bride and groom. It is conveniently located off of the main road, so it was only a 10 minute drive from our hotel in Mt. Pleasant. The parking lot was huge and there were no issues with finding parking. They had everything beautifully displayed inside from the centerpieces, to the seating arrangements to the favors. Our family brought all of that in of course, but the venue had twinky lights and tulle around the railings and the venue. The bar carried all types of alcohol and even let guests do shots. The bartenders were friendly and patient with our crazy family. Once seated, the staff brought around bread and salads. The tables were perfectly spaced apart and it was very comfortable for 160 guests. They had a station on the dancefloor for appetizers which included cheese and crackers, stuffed mushrooms, mac and cheese bites, and meatballs. The stuffed mushrooms and mac and cheese bites really hit the spot especially since we were all so hungry after the ceremony. Their actual wedding ceremony was in a different location, but I imagine you can have your ceremony and reception at Bell's if you wanted. The dinner was served buffet style, and we were led up to the food table by table. The food was really hot and was delicious, and people at my table raved about the broccoli stuffed chicken. After the speeches, dinner, and drinks, it was time to dance. The staff quickly moved all the food away and opened up the dance floor. Everything was done very efficiently. Toward the end of the wedding, we all went outside to do a sparkler send off. It felt like we were only outside for 10 minutes, but when we came back the whole venue was torn down. I was so impressed. They really did a great job. My cousin, aunt, and uncle all said that Ian was a pleasure to work with. They were so stressed out about how terrible the ceremony venue was to work with (a nearby winery), and were so happy and thankful for Ian and his crew at Bell's. They recommended it to everyone at the wedding, and all of the guests clearly had a great time. I don't know any pricing info, but from a guest's perspective, it was a beautiful venue and everything ran smoothly.
