Please park at the John Ball Zoo parking lot. The address of the John Ball Zoo is 1300 Fulton St W, Grand Rapids, MI 49504. Last entry to the Zoo is at 3:30 pm, so you cannot walk through the Zoo to get to the Tree House for the ceremony. Please take the shuttle or the funicular up to the Bissell Tree House at the top of the hill (look for the signs)!
We recommend flying into Grand Rapids, GRR Gerald R. Ford Airport. This is a smaller airport, so for cost you may look at DTW Detroit Airport as well, but Detroit is 2 hours away from our venue, so make sure that you have a car rental or other plan if you fly into Detroit.
