Ceremony
3:00 pm - 3:30 pm
17 Pearl St NW, Grand Rapids, MI 49501
Formal, black-tie optional: Wear floor-length gowns or formal cocktail dresses, tuxes or suits with neckties or bowties.
Please use the main entrance off of Pearl. There's a big "17" by the door. The ceremony will begin promptly at 3:00 PM, so please plan accordingly. The ceremony venue is half a mile from the reception venue. Our advice would be to park near Mertens Prime (reception venue) and walk to the ceremony if it's a nice day. If you prefer to drive, the Pearl/Ionia parking ramp is the closest to the ceremony. More information in FAQ! After the ceremony, feel free to stop by a local coffee shop (we suggest Madcap) or stop by one of the many bars/restaurants for a pre-dinner drink. See the "things to do" tab for our favorite coffee/drink spots. If you opted for a hotel room you can use this time to check in or go back to your room and relax before all the fun begins!g
