Sophie was hands-down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. She is so fun, funny, and real—just an absolute joy to be around on a day that can otherwise feel hectic. What really drew me to her was her background in the arts and the fact that she’s truly skilled in photography—not just someone with a camera, but a real artist. Her style is so refreshingly authentic; the photos aren’t overly edited or forced. Instead, she captured our day exactly as it felt—joyful, emotional, and real. Every photo tells a story, and flipping through them feels like being right back in those moments. We’re beyond grateful to have had someone so talented, genuine, and down-to-earth document the happiest day of our lives.

Venue considerations

  • No on-site bridal suite

  • Not wheelchair accessible
We had our wedding at this venue and it was everything we hoped for and more. The atmosphere was beautifully rustic, which created such a warm and charming backdrop for our big day. We used the space for both our ceremony and reception, and it worked out perfectly. One of the things we appreciated most was how flexible and accommodating the venue was. We were given access to the entire upstairs, including the back office, which was a great private space for me to get ready and stay tucked away before the ceremony. Everything was clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully laid out. Parking was easy for our guests, and the venue was simple to find — a huge plus when hosting 65 people. Our guests fit comfortably with plenty of room to eat, dance, and mingle without feeling cramped. Jennifer, the event coordinator, was incredible. She was always available for questions, and communication throughout the planning process was clear and consistent. We were allowed to visit the venue multiple times to finalize details and even held our rehearsal there, which made everything run smoothly on the day of. The rest of the staff was just as attentive. My husband and I always had a drink in hand, and it felt like every little detail was taken care of without us needing to ask. The food — provided by the venue — was served buffet style and was a huge hit. I received so many compliments from guests throughout the evening about how good it was. I honestly wouldn’t change a thing about our experience. This venue made our wedding day feel seamless, personal, and truly special. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a space that is not only beautiful but also backed by a supportive, professional team.

**I will no longer be paying for this listing, if you're interested in having me photograph your wedding, head to my website to take a look at my work and inquire through my contact form.** * 16 years of creating art from your love. My goal as your photographer is to serve you from beginning to end. You deserve to have images that take you back, that help you relive your day over and over again. These moments deserve to be remembered. We're here to tell your story in the most thoughtful, authentic way possible.

I’m typically not that comfortable in front of a camera but Aliscia gives a lot of praise which helped make me feel less awkward, like I was actually doing things right. She seemed to know when I was getting in my head too much and would think of ways to make me laugh and relax like have my husband tickle me or do something very random and silly, which in turn created some of our favorite photos! She somehow is able to capture true genuine emotions of a simple moment. Now, every time I walk by our photo wall at home I can’t help but smile and be taken back to those moments and feelings. This woman has a gift and is truly amazing at what she does!

Cheat Day Sweets 

5.0

  • Cakes & desserts
  • Starts at $12
  • Serves Grand Rapids, MI

Cheat Day Sweets was created as the passion project of its founder, who embodies the conflicted spirit of both fitness enthusiast AND baker. Out of this push/pull mindset, a sweets/treats brand was envisioned that allowed for a "once-in-a-while" cheat day, because we all need a well-deserved reward every now and then. Made fresh to order in Grand Rapids, Michigan, Cheat Day Sweets is a locally owned and operated small business that strives for the perfect sweet creation, each and every bake. If we aren't confident in our own flavors, we don't make it. Only the best, most luxurious, delicious treats are worthy of OUR Cheat Day.

Working with Cheat Day Sweets was so much fun and a smash hit at the wedding! We had decided early on that we don't understand a traditional wedding cake, and making people watch us cut a cake was just one more thing. So, after discovering Cheat Day Sweet's Instagram, I knew they was the one to book for our dessert bar! I worked with Melissa to design the aesthetic and the menu, but to be completely honest, I was at a point where I was SO over planning and so overwhelmed I couldn't make any decisions (my now husband came home one day and asked if I wanted to go to the gym or do dinner first and I cried because I literally couldn't make another decision). So, I pretty much told her I trust her creative direction and she KILLED IT! Thank you so much for such a beautiful set up and the delicious treats! Photos by the wonderful, Gauper Photo.

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.

My husband and I had the greatest experience working with Kaitlin, I cannot say enough good things about her! We both are not super comfortable being in front of the camera and she made the entire experience so comfortable for us and so fun! She brought the best vibes to our day and I couldn't have asked for a better photographer and wedding day hype girl! I am so lucky to have found her and we would love to work with her again!! I know booking with a vendor that you never met before can be stressful but Kaitlin made us feel so at ease and comfortable. Her portfolio really speaks for itself. She does amazing work and we LOVE how the pictures turned out as well! She just captured the day so perfectly! We highly recommend working with Kaitlin for your big day!

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 eloped and had a small, private reception approximately a month later with family and friends at Frederik Meijer Gardens. I cannot say enough amazing things about them. They went above and beyond, exceeded expectations, and the reception was beautiful and so much fun! I would highly recommend them for any wedding (or party) activities.
