What should I expect at the Welcome Party?

The venue is walking distance from both hotels. We have the room rented from 6:00 - 9:00pm. Feel free to come and go as you please during this time. Hors d'oeuvres will be provided!

What should I expect at the After Party?

The After Party will be held at The BOB, a separate venue from the reception and the hotel. The venue is walking distance from both hotels. The bridal party will be heading straight to The BOB after the last shuttle drop-off of the night. Please use the VIP entrance to avoid paying cover at the door. Drinks will be available for purchase from a private bar within our room. Late-night snacks will be provided!

What is the dress code?

We'd love to see our family and friends get dressed up for our big day! Our wedding is black-tie optional, so we ask men to wear a tuxedo or a dark-colored suit and tie and women to wear a floor length dress!

Can I bring a guest/date?

Due to limited space, we are only able to accommodate those guests formally invited on your wedding invitation. If you received a plus one they will appear under your name when you RSVP. We look forward to celebrating with our closest family and friends!

Can I bring my kids?

We would like our special day to be an adults only event. Please plan child care accordingly and come ready to have a great time!

Will there be transportation to and from the Venue?

There will be shuttles to and from the venue! A shuttle will depart from each hotel at 4:00 pm to drop guests off at the venue. The shuttle will begin transporting guests back to the hotels at 9:00pm, with the last shuttle leaving at 11:15pm. There are also Uber/Lyft options readily available in the area and there is onsite parking at both of the Hotel properties and Venue3Two!

What time should I arrive?

Please arrive at least 15-30 minutes prior to the ceremony to allow time for parking and finding your seat. The ceremony will begin promptly at 5:00 pm!

What time will the party end?

The reception at Venue3Two will conclude at 11pm. From there, those who are up for it are welcome to attend the after party!

Where should I stay?

The wedding party will be staying at the Amway Grand Plaza Hotel. We have a wedding block at this hotel as well as the AC Hotel Downtown Grand Rapids. Please see the "travel" section for wedding block info, and contact Gretta if the blocks are full!

Where should I bring/send my wedding gift?

Your presence at our wedding is the greatest gift we could ever ask for! If you would like to honor us with a gift, please have it delivered to our home address. A wedding card box will be at our reception!
