The Cheney Place

them for all their money. During this pandemic we often see people coming together to help one another through these stressful times but instead the Chaney Place is using this pandemic to take advantage of couples. I hope they don’t hose anymore couples like they have been but Ben will do his best to talk in circles and get a dime out of anyone he can. He is only worried about money, not the couple.

ld ever imagine. I’d do a wedding all over again just to see them all again!!!

ly ever after. I think all of our guests enjoyed having the wedding all in one place, no worry about getting lost. It was very nice to be able to separate the ceremony/reception from the cocktail hours on different floors. And all the vintage furniture made it so cozy! I am so happy that I choose the Cheney Place for our wedding!

anie made everything so relaxed, fun, and easy on our wedding day and made sure we didn’t have anything to stress about. We were so grateful to be able to fully and completely enjoy every minute of our special day, thanks to her! She is a total rockstar at her job, and we are so grateful to have worked with her. In addition to TCP’s top notch hospitality, this venue is absolutely amazing. All of the beautiful furniture and little details are thoughtfully designed and curated. We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful venue and experience for our wedding! Our only wish is that we could do it again! We would highly recommend getting married here if you’re in the market for a beautiful and unique space for your wedding!

received so many compliments on the venue and the professionalism of the staff. You will not be disappointed.

it! The Thursday before our wedding, we dropped of 2-3 carts worth of decorations and they made everything appear out of a fairytale. They even put together our seating chart (after my husband finished building it!). Its seamless to work with their PUNCH Bar Service and Fancy Fray (extra cute seating, extra chandeliers, etc.). They even have a day of coordinator who manages everything and makes sure everything is set up working with your master of Ceremonies. They help us time the processional, walked us through everything! We didnt do a formal "practice" Rehearsal and with how the TCP helps day of we definitely didn't need it! If you want a unique venue with a lot of character and people who are passionate about making you and your future spouses day with family and friends extra special, the TCP is the way to go.

estion answered (some before I even asked them), every accommodation made and every worry subdued. The venue is beautiful and very little decor is needed which is why we loved it! Less work! They also assist with set up and tear down for you (try finding a venue like that anywhere else!). Because the venue is so popular I was worried our experience would've feel unique or special (there was literally a wedding the night before ours) but they really put all their attention and love into YOUR special moment that you feel like the only bride of the year. Going down the freight elevator is a must! Getting ready onsite in the suite, also a must! Do it all, you won't regret it. Just take every moment in because you wont want it to end. My grandma is still texting me things like "I can't believe how neat that place is!" :) Do it. Just do it.

nk every one of our guests mentioned how beautiful and unique it was. I did not have one bit of worry about anything day-of, they literally took care of everything, from moving decor to helping us set-up the music, to breaking everything down at the end of the night. I did not have to do anything except enjoy myself and be with our guests. My husband also complimented the staff and venue, and he is tough to please. It really was an amazing experience from start to finish. If you are thinking about booking, do it!

could've imagined. They're also very quick to respond to anything you may need and have a great attitude that makes you feel special despite them obviously having multiple weddings each weekend. Stephanie was SO amazing and supportive. We can't wait to find a reason to come back to the Cheney some day!

been a better blessing in disguise.

& a day of coordinator! No words other than perfect can describe this place & their team.

e venue has so much character that we did minimal decorations for both ceremony and reception. Second, my wedding day was legit, not exaggerating, stress-free thanks to The Cheney Place staff. They contacted all of my other vendors weeks in advance to make sure all was in order and made the entire day go off without a hitch (other than my husband and I actually getting hitched). It would be safe to say that when you book with The Cheney Place, you're not only getting a beautiful building for your venue, but you're really getting a wedding planning service included. It's amazing. Seriously, could not be more happy with how our entire event turned out at The Cheney Place. You would be insane not to book with them!

e going to get what we wanted. Can't thank them enough, we highly recommend!!

essed once during the day due to their professionalism and preparedness. I would absolutely work with them again, and the place itself is exceptional.

day of the event…as was the entire staff. Every single person was just so intent on making sure we had a seamless, trouble-free, magical day. The facility is just charming with the various seating areas and décor. Our guests raved about it. Thank you The Cheney Place for helping us create a dream wedding!

!

on. I only had to meet with them 2 times and everything was perfect. The venue speaks for itself in how stunning everything is! So simple yet beautiful! It is basically already decorated for you for any kind of event! The entire staff on my wedding day was so great; they were very helpful and kept us on perfect timing! We had everyone talking about how beautiful our wedding was. (They're still talking about it was almost 3 months ago!)

back by how professional, organized and willing to help all the staff was. Stephanie and the team went above and beyond. When they tell you that they don't want you to worry about anything, they mean it! And I can say whole-heartedly, my husband and I did not have to worry about a thing. The staff is professional, respectful and productive. I would recommend this venue to anyone, especially if you are planning from a distance! Beyond thankful for the efforts of this venue in making our day special. All of this greatness aside, lets not forget how cool this venue really is. Its a one of a kind place.

ocess (...we had NO idea what we were doing!!). She was always available, honest, and willing to answer even the silliest of questions!! On the day of our wedding, Stephanie was so incredibly kind and empathetic to the variety of emotions everyone felt! She made sure every person knew where to be and what to do! Because of her and EVERYTHING that the Cheney Place offers, my husband and I didn’t have a single worry on the day of our wedding! It was more perfect than I could have ever imagined!!!!

amazing to work with. She kept me at ease through the entire process. They made our wedding day perfect and kept the good vibes all day. This venue is so beautiful and the ability to select your furniture/decor options and work with someone along the way was very helpful for my husband and I. I loved the ability to have my own bridal suite to get ready with my girls with plenty of space and fabulous decor. Absolutely loved our day and highly recommend The Cheney Place!

eir recommendations blew us away- and all of Aubree and Steph’s help made our day so perfect!! From the vintage china, to the chandeliers, coordination with all of our other vendors, caterer and rehearsal dinner recommendations, they literally had great suggestions for it all. I felt so comfortable and good about all of their advice, checking in, planning, and day of coordination. We loved that they organized all of the set up and tear down, making it so easy for our guests to enjoy themselves and none of us having to stick around to pick up at the end of the reception. The space is so unique and all of our guests were so full of compliments on how wonderful it all was- from the cocktail hour decor, to the cute bars and so many beers on tap! Our day went so smoothly and the staff were sure to follow the timeline, keep things moving and make sure our guests were taken care of. 100% would Highly recommend and loved every moment of our day! A huge thanks to Steph, Aubree and Jenna! If we could do it all again i would at TCP in a heartbeat :)

fect. I can’t say enough amazing things about this space and all of the people that help to make it wonderful!

nd reception here, and it was the most stress-free and relaxed day. Jenna, the Venue Manager, was an absolute dream to work with. From the minute we first met with her to the follow up after the big day, she was on top of everything. She responded to emails almost immediately and brought my wedding's vision to life. Even when I changed some things last minute, it wasn't a problem. It was like having a wedding planner without paying for a wedding planner! Jenna did all the coordinating for the timing and put everything in place to make our big day extra special. On the day of our wedding, Jenna and her staff organized everything, setting up tables and coordinating with vendors. I was able to completely relax. She told us where to go and what to do the whole day, so we didn't have to think about anything. I can honestly say that the day was perfect and perfectly executed. If I got married again, I'd choose The Cheney Place in a heartbeat. Fancy Fray, the vintage furniture rental, and PUNCH, the TCP bar, were absolutely amazing, too. Fancy Fray's selection was amazing. We were able to handpick everything. And the bar had a drink ready for me every time I went up to them. So much love to this vendor. Nothing bad to say about them at all! If you're wavering, just go for it! It's worth it!

and our goal for evening (aside from getting married, hehe) was to make everyone we love feel relaxed and taken care of. And we wanted our families to be guests, too, and not have to worry about anything (i.e. teardown the event at the end of the night.) Stellar reviews, unbelievable photos and the fact that the space could contain our big, fat Irish wedding lured us in but we were sold by the positive vibe The Cheney Place owners and staff put out there. You get so much bang for your buck. I couldn’t even fathom what a similar venue in Los Angeles would cost. The staff was attentive and organized from the very beginning. Every email was returned quickly and with care. They’ve seen everything and know how to care for their clients. Their internal business systems work great. I always knew what to expect and when to expect it. Weeks before the event, they gather your vendor list and itinerary and take it from there. (We also got so much positive feedback from our vendors about the staff at TCP.) I was so giddy I’d check the hashtag or check in on Instagram every weekend and see how brides and grooms made that wonderful space their own. I could hardly believe we’d get to join that club soon. The space is gorgeous and well designed. I didn’t fret about decorations because every nook and cranny of the venue is an Instagram buffet. They also had us drop off our details (linens, memory table frames, card table materials, half our centerpieces) a few days before and they took care of assembling. Bonus, they boxed everything up for us to pick up after the wedding. They even helped us get creative when our guest list fluctuated and our Fancy Fray rental plans changed. We had a blast getting ready in the bridal suite and the guys in the grooms lounge. Our bridal party kept saying “I want to live here.” Join the club, I’d say. The staff even helped us pull off a few little surprises — a fun rented dance floor under the disco balls, surprise decorations and signature drinks, etc — all while we were away at the church. We couldn’t wait to show it off to our guests. And it didn’t disappoint. We got so many compliments about how beautiful our wedding was and we loved seeing everyone have fun sneaking selfies or glam photos. The only fragment of a hiccup we encountered was when TCP acquired their own liquor license during our planning time. The choice came after we had a contract with their preferred bar service. Jenna and Ryan, of the venue’s bar service PUNCH, were understanding and helped reach an agreement with a similar quote of our previous agreement. We were very happy with the outcome. One note for the comment box? A couple of the white folding chairs broke during our event. Thank you, thank you to Jenna, Stephanie, Aubree and Ben (and anyone I could have missed, your passion and hard work do not go unnoticed). You have a special space. It’s the amazing backdrop of the greatest day of our lives and your staff helped us achieve our dreams. We and every last guest who celebrated with us were relaxed and well taken care of. Just how we wanted it.

absolutely beautiful and the girls that work there are amazingly friendly, organized and very very easy to work with! If you are looking for a one-stop shop for your wedding, this is it! We had the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception all in one building, plus we were able to take all our pictures on site as well! It made things so simple and stress free on our big day! Our guests loved the venue as well, as there are many fun places to get great Instagram pics! Would definitely highly recommend The Cheney Place!!

so organized, and so kind. Every detail of my wedding was so perfectly executed by them. Even when I couldn't find my vows, they quickly offered to print new ones and saved the day! You can tell they are seasoned wedding pros. If I were planning my wedding again, I would choose The Cheney Place a thousand times over!

rocess, making for a stress-free, seamless wedding day! Five stars simply isn’t enough stars!! TCP will forever hold a special place in our hearts!

was so nice to have everything set up and torn down, so we could enjoy the day!! Thank you TCP, you guys are amazing at what you do!!!

hair and make-up artist said it was the best venue to get ready at. Having the chair and lighting made it very easy and convenient for her to get everything ready to make the morning run smoothly. Before our wedding, they got their liquor license which made planning run more smoothly than even before. There were 8 options on tap (which our guests loved and are still claiming made it the best beer options at a wedding that they've ever been to). We got to pick exact liquors that we wanted and they even had a couple more options which helped some of our surprise guest choices that we did not think of (gin and tonics)! The lines moved fast, no one was waiting long, and the drinks were poured with love :) They cleaned up everything so quickly and made it extremely convenient for us to grab our stuff the next day vs trying to pack everything in a car and figuring out logistics. Our wedding went smoothly and we could not have asked for a better evening to remember for the rest of our lives! Thank you again to the wonderful staff at The Cheney Place! You truly made our wedding perfect!

lways left me feeling like I was in the best hands. As someone who did not know the first thing about wedding planning when we began, they helped me to really organize my thoughts and figure out my overall vision. Everything after that was truly them executing what I related to them in our first few meetings. All of the pre-work was so smooth and helpful, that it is amazing to say that our wedding day itself made them shine even brighter. Everything was perfectly executed and all the little details that I could not have possibly forseen, they already had the perfect answer to. I cannot say how many of our guests stopped us throughout the evening just to say how beautiful the space was, how exquisitely it was decorated, and how nice everybody was! Our day went without a hitch, which is something that I feel grateful to just be able to say. I would love to get married all over again just to work with their staff again and see what amazing-ness they could cook up. My husband and I are so especially grateful to Jenna, Stephanie and Aubree for all of their hard work and for making us feel like family.

ond breathtaking. If you want great lighting and great photos, this is your place. As a photographer, this was one of my must-haves; a venue with exposed natural lighting as we were having a winter wedding. We took all photos upstairs and it was perfect. The management here is unbelievably kind, helpful, and on top of their game. There wasn't a single hiccup. Jenna & Stephanie were amazing gals to work with and I will truly miss them. I wish I could take them through life with me! I also highly recommend using GiGi LaClede, the onsite rental company. Holly is amazing to work with and has beautiful rentals that I took full advantage of. The in-house bar service TCP uses was also exceptional. (Punch) 10 stars out of 5 for this place, these girls, their partnered vendors, everyone. It was a perfect experience and perfect day. Lots of love to you all! - Hannah & Steve

shocked, because it was exactly what we were looking for. The space is beautiful, the staff accommodating and helpful, and it doesn't hurt that vintage furniture rentals are easy to add to the plan for your big day! We also loved that the Cheney Place was so flexible with the decor - we dropped off everything a couple days before the event, they set it all up beautifully and took it down for us at the end of the night. We just had to pick it back up a couple of days later! So convenient to not worry about what is happening to all of your stuff at the end of the reception. Additionally, the cocktail hour space and bridal suite are amazing and so full of character! They made for beautiful photos, and I have guests commenting on what an incredible reception venue months later! Our only slight issue was that a stranger came in at one point during the evening because the doors were unlocked and wandered into the coat room. Luckily, he was spotted right away, and the staff said they would review their security tapes to make sure nothing was taken. Besides that one small hiccup, I absolutely loved my experience working with the Cheney Place! If I could throw an event there every year, I would in a heartbeat. Any brides looking for a unique and low-stress experience for their wedding should consider the Cheney Place!

ryone looking for a beautiful place to get married.

is is a great place to get married. Many of our guests commented on how much they loved the venue! We actually saved money on decorations because the space is so beautifully decorated on its own. We enjoyed working with Jenna and other TCP staffers throughout the planning process. They were always quick to respond and eager to provide referrals and advice. The day of could not have gone more smoothly. The TCP staff coordinated with our other vendors and remembered and executed every specific detail we asked for. My husband and I were able to relax and enjoy our day knowing that all the details and logistics were in expert hands. I would very highly recommend this venue. Note that they book up far in advance so you will need to plan accordingly!

o be in Grand Rapids for work (we live in Chicago), I suggested to my husband that we check out this place that might work for the wedding. He was game, since we certainly weren’t in a place to commit to any vendors yet. Again, we weren’t even engaged yet! This was supposed to be a casual visit just to get an idea of what was out there! But, we fell in love with Cheney Place. It’s beautiful, unique, and full of antique elements that make it one of a kind. We loosely told Jenna, who walked us around, that we wanted to get married the following year and she said they were completely booked through that fall, except for a weekend in September. After 5 minutes of high-energy consultation, we decided to throw caution to the wind and booked it! So, Cheney Place picked my wedding date and I’m thrilled! Working with them was incredible (special shout out to Jenna, who is organized, cheerful, and oh so competent), and we even booked Fancy Fray vignettes and farm tables from them. Jenna gave great recommendations about solid vendors which got us started on our adventure. Our wedding guests still comment about how amazing Cheney Place was, and we agree! We’ll look forward to renewing our vows their some day. Strongly recommend you check this place out and book quickly!

y enjoy their jobs. We had both our ceremony and reception there and we really can't say enough good about it. I am a control freak and wanted to be there every second of that day to oversee all details. Once I realized that desire was not conducive to a bride's wedding day with all the getting ready, pictures, and general wedding day shenanigans, I had a slight freakout. However, as soon as I stepped into the space and saw that this wedding dream team had taken the vision that had been in my head for two years and made it into a reality I was calm and collected the rest of the day. With these wonderful people working tirelessly to make sure we had the wedding we'd been dreaming of we actually got to enjoy every second of our celebration as opposed to people needing things from us/stressing us out. It was truly an amazing day thanks to TCP. I would recommend this place in a heart beat to any bride/groom out there. If you're on the fence, this is me telling you GET OFF THE FENCE AND BOOK IT! You will NOT be disappointed.

hanie were a DREAM team and made our every vision come to light. I honestly considered all of them friends by the end of the wedding planning process. They were as excited and involved in our wedding as some of closest friends and family. At TCP you get a built in support system and wedding planner(s) all in one. The team was quick to respond with emails and happy to help in any and every way possible. Going into the day of our wedding we didn't have a single worry or stress knowing we were in the BEST hands (which is exactly what every couple needs on their big day). We had countless compliments on how stunning the space was and we had the absolute best night of our lives!!

mendations. Personally I think the setting does not need a lot of decor because it is so charming and beautiful on its own. They have borage furniture from fancy fray to liven up the space as well! Highly, highly recommended!!!

ndors from their preferred list & loved them all.

n and he answered ALL of our questions about the space. We were able to host our ceremony and our reception here & it was absolutely breathtaking. We opted for the styled ceremony which included soft seating (vintage couches) in the first two rows for family, chandeliers down the aisle, an arch for us to stand in front of & a ride down the elevator for my father & I. Our guests were brought to the second floor which is styled by Ben & Mindy (owners). You cannot change the styling, but I promise you won't want to! Our guests were raving about the space and fell in love just as we did. After cocktail hour, our guests came back to the first floor for the reception. We were able to use the farm table for the head table (HIGHLY RECOMMEND) and had a seating vignette near the dance floor. Overall, I would recommend The Cheney Place to any and all future couples. We want to relive our wedding day there over and over again! Thank you Cheney Place for make our day absolutely perfect!

our every need during our wedding day. We did the wedding and reception there. The staff quickly and efficiently flipped the wedding space into the reception space while our guests enjoyed cocktail hour in the beautifully decorated upstairs. I wish I could remember the names of every person there we worked with, but I cannot thank them all enough for making our day exactly as beautiful as we envisioned it! You cannot go wrong booking this venue!

would recommend them to everyone! What a great place to get married. The center itself is so awesome, and several of our guests wanted to know more about TCP for future events. Bravo Jenna, Aubrey, and SaraBeth!! Job well done!

Ladies video. They had a team of maybe 4-5 that took care of literally everything from start to finish. If you go with TCP, bars by butch, Bradley productions, Kangaroo kitchen combo, they will NOT disappoint. All night we had comments on how awesome our venue was and how beautiful it looked! Thank you again for making our night perfect!

e Cheney Place to anyone!

ith. Cannot say enough good things about this venue or their whole team.

worry about how the space will look or any vendor issues. The staff takes great care of the wedding party and attendees as well!

worry about how the space will look or any vendor issues. The staff takes great care of the wedding party and attendees as well!

son we picked the venue because they were so excited to be apart of our day & they are obviously very knowledgeable about all things wedding. We worked with Jenna over the following year and a half and she was so sweet and patient. I swear I emailed her a million questions & she always answered within a couple of days and I never felt like I was bugging her. We even decided to move our big day up 6 months and TCP was awesome with accommodating our request. When everything was said & done we were SO HAPPY we chose Cheney Place & our guests can't quite talking about how great the space was. Huge thanks to everyone at TCP for making our wedding day dreams come true!

big day. The space is GORGEOUS, and Jenna and the whole crew are so lovely to work with. Jenna helped me choose lovely linens that stayed in our budget but were in no way plain, and at every step she was helpful and conscientious of the creating the look and feel we wanted. I was SO glad when she and Aubrey stepped in and helped us walk through the ceremony logistics at our rehearsal, since our friends officiated for us and none of us had any idea how to take charge and make things happen. Everything went beautifully, and I heard such high praises from all of our guests about how beautiful everything was. It was so nice to be able to have our ceremony and reception in one place, and the cocktail hour space upstairs is so lovely. I highly recommend The Cheney Place.

oured TCP it was love at 1st sight for us and we booked it on the spot! On our wedding day the entire building was ours from 10 AM to midnight, so we could get ready, take pictures, etc. beforehand. Super convenient! The venue staff are awesome as well and they made sure our wedding ran like clockwork. I didn't have to worry about a thing on my wedding day! From having a day-of event coordinator to parking attendants, TCP ensured everything flowed smoothly. My dad was diagnosed with cancer 1.5 months before our wedding and it would have been hard for him to sit in a wooden chair for the duration of the ceremony, so our coordinator (Aubree) accommodated him and made sure the Father of the Bride had a comfortable chair. It was so sweet and I really appreciated that small act of kindness. This venue is definitely on the pricier side and if you're not careful you can end up spending way more than anticipated. Also, we weren't able to have our rehearsal there because of an event the night before. That didn't end up being a big deal though because Aubree was on it and queued everyone.

! Very nice working with them! They take care of the entire wedding Party And details, not to mention the beautiful venue it really has character and was so perfect in every way!!

pace to how we wanted, and that is exactly what we were looking for. The day of our wedding everything went smoothly with t he help of everyone who works there. We had many comments from our guest about how much fun they had and how beautiful the venue is. Thanks to the Cheney Place we had a perfect day!!

le communicators. Very organized, flexible, accommodating, and responsive. From planning stages all the way through the night of the event, they went above and beyond, and handled many small details of our event that took a great deal of pressure off of me and my "bride tribe". Also, as a bride, the bridal suite is clutch. It was very nice to be able to get ready there and then have that spot as our "home base" all the way through the end of the event. I strongly recommend TCP to any recently engaged couples! Congrats and good luck! Oh also, we had our ceremony there as well, and the guests could not stop talking about my elevator entrance. What a unique touch!!

d. Leading up to our wedding, Jenna quickly responded to any questions we had (and there were many:)). She guided us on how to customize the space to fit us as a couple and our vision for our wedding. We were blown away on our actual wedding day by how much TCP staff did for us. We had both our ceremony and reception at TCP; on our wedding day, the space looked more beautiful than we could have imagined. Having the ceremony on the main floor, heading upstairs for the cocktail hour, and then back down to the reception went flawlessly. Heading into our wedding day, we knew our contract said the TCP staff would take down decorations, but we were unsure how much this actually entailed. At the end of the night, the staff literally picked up and boxed everything for us. We were then offered multiple dates after our wedding we could come by and pick things up. Not needing to clean at the end of the night was such a gift for us and our families. We cannot overstate how wonderful The Cheney Place was; they truly exceeded our expectations in every way!

lways recommend The Cheney Place to every bride that is in search of a venue! Nothing but compliments from our guests and The Cheney Place truly made it the best day ever for us!!

t The Cheney Place apart from other wedding venues are their staff and services. Jenna, the venue manager, worked with us throughout the planning process and was AMAZING. She was very prompt in response to emails or phone calls and pretty much guided us through making decisions with vendors, decorations, etc. I am so grateful for her because I am terrible with event planning and décor. Jenna helped me through everything from developing wedding timelines to the layout of ceremony and receptions. I always figured that for my wedding I would have to hire a wedding planner. However, with all of Jenna’s guidance and coordination, that wasn’t necessary. I pretty much got a wedding planner with my booking of The Cheney Place. Our decorations and ceremony/reception layout ended up looking far better than I would have ever imagined. Their staff is truly talented and so creative! We pretty much only told them our theme and gave them a few items we wanted displayed for decorations. The rest we told them to do whatever they needed to do to make it look nice and they beyond exceeded our expectations! Another helpful service The Cheney Place provides is complete setup and takedown of all decorations, tables, chairs, etc. Even better, they can store it for you at the venue to pick up later so you don’t have to worry about it at the end of the night. Once I arrived there to get ready, I seriously did not lift a finger. Their staff handled everything and I could just enjoy the moment. I still can’t believe how stress-free our wedding was. I kept waiting for something unexpected or for something to go wrong and it never happened. Our wedding could not have been this perfect without the staff and services of The Cheney Place!

f was helpful and we know they worked ALL DAY to help set up, and they probably worked late into the night as well so they could do it all over again the next day! Venue may have been a little pricey for us, but it is worth it to score one of the premier unique wedding venues in the state of Michigan. That being said, if you're looking here plan ahead! We booked about a year and a half out from our date, and late October was their last Saturday available!

ent above and beyond. They literally take all the stress out of your big day. So many of our guests commented on how cool the venue was and how it was so amazing. Seriously cannot recommend them more highly!!!

ost unique wedding venue that they had ever been to. Jenna, Stephanie, and team made the day unforgettable and most importantly, worry free. I would recommend this venue to anyone, regardless if you live in the Grand Rapids area. My fiance and I live in Chicago, and made it a destination wedding because of The Cheney Place.

to work with. They were quick to response, offer ideas, and allowed me to stop by a few times to see different setups and take out-of-town family through the space before the wedding. I recommend this venue to any couple planning to their wedding. The space requires little to no decoration. It sells itself and fits a large group easily.

and just be superstars throughout your whole wedding planning process. They set up, they tear down, they coordinate with your other vendors, they can create 'wedding prep' and cocktail hour playlists, literally, I don't think there is anything they can't do. And in case you haven't noticed yet, the venue itself is STUNNING. Tons of space, plenty of photoshoot options, hidey holes for private moments, dance floor is rocking, bar is perfect, no detail goes unnoticed. Just book your wedding NOW. This place is going to fill up fast.

or banquet hall! It was SO convenient to have everything all in one space, and we loved that the entire building was ours for the whole day. They only book 1 wedding each day, so every couple gets the VIP treatment. Our on-site coordinator, Jenna, was super-helpful during the planning process, and we trusted her guidance 100%. She was totally cool with us being super-specific about the details of our day, and took great care in making sure everything came together for a great result. Every guest was raving about our awesome venue, we would choose it again in a heartbeat!!! Our only complaints (and they’re fairly minor): 1. No one told us that Jenna wouldn’t be onsite for the wedding rehearsal or the actual wedding day. Her team did a nice job, but since we had been working closely with her for the previous year, we would’ve felt better if she had been there or would’ve appreciated a head’s up. 2. The team onsite on the wedding day wasn’t very careful when packaging up our décor pieces after the wedding. Since The Cheney Place specifically advertises their takedown services, I was disappointed to find fragile glassware not wrapped or protected, and the ribbon backdrop I spent hours making crumpled into a ball. Again, these things didn’t ruin our day by any means, they’re just something for future couples to be aware of. We would still recommend booking The Cheney Place if you get the chance, it’s totally worth it!

many compliments and we will forever be grateful!

ome, like I have a friend crush she is so cool. She answered hundreds of questions from my mother and I, and always with a positive and immediate response. The quick response rate made a world of difference with all the different stresses I was under during the planning time. Jenna and the staff were helpful and creative with ideas when needed, but not overbearing at the least. Very accommodating. I didn't even hire a wedding planner or day of coordinator-- the Cheney staff did it all for me which saved big bucks! After working with them for a year and knowing how detail oriented they are, I had complete faith in them to set up day of and handle any obstacles without hassle or hiccups. The space is absolutely gorgeous and looked stunning once all said and done. I highly recommend renting furniture through their sister company, Fancy Fray too! It made the space just right, and gave the vintage feel I was looking for. Having the second floor available for cocktail hour was really cool and my guests loved all the different scenic backdrops - it really elevates the space and makes it fee less like a "wedding hall" plus It is awesome for pictures too! The bridal suite is adorable for all your ladies to get ready in-- we had so much fun and had some really cute candid photos taken up there! Most local hair places will waive the travel fee to come to The Cheney too because its so convenient to downtown (Only located about a half mile from the downtown bars and hotels so its perfect for your out of town guests). My friends and family are still beaming about the wedding and the space, weeks later and I owe that in big part to The Cheney Place. Please book this venue, and then invite me to your wedding ;)

about anything the day of. The staff was great and kept everyone and everything on track. The venue is beautiful and it was a lot of fun to pick out different furniture we wanted for the reception. Jenna made everything simple when planning. I really can't say thank you enough for kicking ass and helping make our wedding awesome!! loved it all!

ll organized. It was a fantastic option for us , having family from out of town, it made it easy for everyone to stay at one place. I haven't stopped hearing about how impressed all of our guests were with the venue and service. Thank you TCP for making our day perfect!
