Grand Rapids, MI
  • Venue
  • Up to 300 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $10,000

This West Side landmark, with its 150-foot iconic smokestack, has been transformed into an event destination like no other in Grand Rapids. Towering historical windows, original exposed brick and structural steel, and soaring open-architecture ceilings recall the bygone days of America’s Gilded Age. With two distinct, expansive, and column-free reception spaces, cocktail lounge, outdoor amphitheater and courtyard, and abundant FREE on-site parking, New Vintage Place is the ideal venue for any event requiring a unique character that will leave an unforgettable impression.

I thought this place was beautiful and I was really excited to get married here. I love that they have a bridal and groom suite. It made it easier to make sure everyone was there. However, it made the day really stressful on how strict they are with getting access to the venue. It really cuts the day in half because most hair and make up people won’t start at one location and move to another like the venue for example. We couldn’t get access to the venue until noon unless we paid extra which we already were paying a lot for the venue and all the extras if we wanted. That made the day the most stressful, it was hard to enjoy the getting ready process. Otherwise overall I had so many compliments on how beautiful the venue was.

It was a pretty magical night. We also asked Funkle Jesse to provide music for the outdoor ceremony and their guitarist provided exactly what we’d hoped for- a beautiful and respectful background of music for their vows.

Hi, I'm Rayna! I grew up on a fifth generation farm in Kansas, studied photography in the Rocky Mountains, and now I live what I like to refer to as my "Hallmark Movie Life" residing in a quaint lakeside town working as a wedding photographer. Life is good! During your wedding day, my main focus is to document moments as they come, embracing each interaction and emotion with full arms. Encouraging authentic moments- I aim to not interfere with them. Each wedding photography experience through its entire process is specially tailored to its individual client from inquiry to gallery delivery, each one unique and true to themselves.

From the moment we first reached out to Rayna, her communication was efficient, helpful, and kind. The quality of her work was truly priceless - exceptional and irreplaceable. Rayna went above and beyond to make sure we got all the shots we wanted and that we felt comfortable and had fun throughout the entire process. She is the best wedding photographer we could have asked for, and we are overjoyed with the photos that captured our special day so perfectly. The guest loved her as well, commenting on how sweet she was and she blended in with the dynamic so well.

In addition, couples may avail of these and the venue’s other luxurious event spaces for their wedding ceremonies.

We had the most wonderful experience at St. Cecilia's on our wedding day! From booking to the day of the wedding, Nadine was so helpful! Communication was wonderful leading up to the day. We even got a layout of our table setup to send to other vendors. They were also so accommodating when we decided to move the buffet to the lower level of the building. Choosing this venue was truly a worthwhile investment! We were originally concerned about the option of only one bar vendor. But we now know why they prioritize them! Martha's catering went above and beyond for us and the bartenders were wonderful. They clearly know the venue and have a lot of experience. So do not let the catering options deter you, clearly St. Cecilia's has them picked for a reason and you can trust your vendors! Have I mentioned that the building is gorgeous!?! The ballroom is stunning and the rooms are all so magical. It is such a beautiful wedding venue. Our guests had a wonderful time!

I am an intimate wedding photographer based out of my home state, the Mitten. To sum it up, I'm laid back, chill, and ready to hang out. I call myself an intimate wedding photographer because I work best with couples who want a smaller, more close-knit feel to their wedding day and because I offer my clients a sense of familiarity, and comfortability and help them feel relaxed and ready for the day ahead. By the end-we're great friends! My hope with every session I have is that you'll find not only the pictures beautiful but the shared experience one to remember as well.

Kaitlin did a fantastic job capturing my wedding day. She got along so well with everyone in the wedding party which made shooting a blast. Her work is outstanding, she is so easy to work with, and I would recommend her to everyone.

5.0

  • Florist
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Gowen, MI

With a background in installation art our event floral offering is a little different. Our designs are architectural and modern, playful designs creating a custom look for each event. Dreaming big with a new installation idea? Lets make it happen. xx

Big City Vibes made all of my wedding dreams into reality. During my first consult with Big City Vibes, I didn't quite have a full vision of what I was looking for. I gave them bits and pieces of things that stood out to me stylistically and they turned those small visions into an unbelievable day of florals. Big City Vibes (aka owner Brennan) is patient, a great listener, a creative genius, and such a hard worker. Once you work with Big City Vibes once.... you'll want them in charge of every future party, wedding, and gathering you throw.

Hello! We are a Holland, MI based acoustic trio, offering guitar, violin, vocals, and piano. Emily is a classically-trained vocalist, Anna is a classically-trained violinist with folk music experience, and Liv is a folk & worship arts trained vocalist with a worship arts degree. We are best friends who we love making music together! Playing for weddings is a natural outflow of our love of creativity, our love of love, and our love of helping couples experience a day that is truly "theirs". We'd love to chat with you about how we can accommodate your music dreams for your wedding. Typically 2 of the 3 of us play together.

We were blessed to have Liv as a musician for our daughter’s wedding and she was wonderful—such beautiful music and musicianship and authentic joy. I’ve heard Anna play numerous times at weddings and she is outstanding as a solo violin or with others. Emily is a perfect fit for this group and brings her wonderful voice and spirit to their collaborative work. All are gifted musicians and communicators who will work hard to create the environment that you want for your event.

Alfield Reeves Photography

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,700
  • Serves Gowen, MI

I am a Liberian-American portrait & editorial photographer based in West Michigan. I specialize in creating work that encourages self-reflection and expression, promotes equitable action and showcases the black and brown identity and culture. My images are warm, quiet and bold. They bridge traditional divides between photojournalism, portraiture and fashion. My work is featured in magazines and online platforms like Vogue Greece, Grand Rapids Magazine, Grand Rapids Business Journal, ProPublica, and The Trace to name a few. My work has been part of numerous exhibitions locally and statewide.

My husband and I got married in 2019. We booked Alfield for our engagement photos and our wedding photos. The price is so worth the quality and experience you get when working with Alfield. We literally got our photos back the same week as our wedding. All of them were edited, even a physical photo box and custom-created album. Very professional, timely, and easy to work with. No hassle and I never had to worry about any of the logistics related to photography. Alfield seemed to have everything down to a science and every shot was perfect. He could walk around the city and with ease find beautiful shots. He is an artist and an incredible one at that. He had a small team on the day of the wedding, in order to capture both sides of the pre-wedding moments. Whenever I have a need for a photographer, I immediately reach out to Alfield, and can't see that changing unless he becomes unavailable. I have since done professional headshots with him, which came out perfect and just how I envisioned. I highly highly HIGHLY recommend hiring Alfield for any wedding photography or ANY photo needs for that matter. I couldn't be happier with all the work he has done for us. We are lifelong customers.

We’re Kristyn and Jon! We’ve been together since 2014 and got married in 2019 with an epic disaster of a wedding! We planned it so carefully and thought of every detail so we could give our guests the ultimate experience (being wedding pros and all) and ended up with a monsoon that caused our tent to start collapsing! In the end, nothing went as planned except that we did what we set out to do- marry each other! While we can’t control the weather on your day, we can make it an amazing, fun-filled experience and be able to tell your story in the most authentic way possible, creating a work of art with your memories at the center of it.

We've worked with Blush a few times and they are amazing! They get proofs back on time, and their final results are stunning. They are on time, professional, and easy to work with. I would highly recommend them for all of your photography and videography needs!

My name is Alicia, and I'm a designer/photographer living in Grand Rapids, Michigan. I am so thankful that I am able to capture the love stories of real people and provide them with honest, unposed images that they will cherish for the rest of their lives. Thank you for stopping by. I would love to work with you. Let's chase some light together.

We will treasure Alicia’s photos FOREVER. She was so amazing to have around on our big day and made us feel totally comfortable and at ease. We originally didn’t want to spend a lot of time on photos (we’d rather be hanging out with our family and friends!) but Alicia made taking photos so fun that we wanted to keep taking photos! We will really treasure these forever :)
