Every year we take a trip to Meijer Gardens to go see either the butterfly exhibit or the cherry blossoms. We hope you get the chance to explore the wonderful gardens before the wedding!

Jake's favorite spot in Grand Rapids is Max's. This is one of the best tiki bars in the world and hosts an amazing collection of polynesian artwork and historical tiki bar artifacts. The drinks and food are amazing! Make sure to get a picture

October is the perfect time of year to visit Robinette's just as Erica has since childhood. The cider is flowing, the corn maze is fully grown, and there is nothing like their pumpkin spice donuts and a hay ride.

It's hard to come to Grand Rapids and not stop into Founder's for an All Day IPA, Red's Rye, or Breakfast Stout. Get the tour if you can! Founder's has the largest combination mash/lauter ton in the world at ~300bbl.

Erica loved to visit this local Zoo as a kid and is a must stop for families when in Grand Rapids. Erica's favorite was always the penguins in the aquarium area.

Jake loves to Disc Golf and this is one of the best courses in Grand Rapids! This course is a Championship level course with short tees for beginners too.
