There isn't a train option.
Flight
Gerald R. Ford International Airport
Gerald R. Ford International Airport is the ideal airport in the area to fly into.

Uber
If you don't know how to use it you may be too old to participate in the required dances at the wedding. There are many uber options in the GR area and should be easily accessible at the venue.
