Business Casual
Let's start the weekend off right! Please join us for appetizers and drinks at a Grand Rapids staple. Feel free to come and go as you please! While an RSVP is not necessary, let us know if you might make it by marking yes, as it'll help us plan. There is free street parking starting at 7:00pm. If you can't find a spot you may use either of Founder's paid lots and get your parking ticket validated. Good for up to 10 hours. Lots are located approximately one block away from the Taproom entrance. Handicap parking is provided by the city and can be found in front of the Taproom entrance. There is an elevator located in the gift shop, just past the host stand. A staff member will be waiting there to take your party up to the Centennial Room located on the second floor. We can't wait to welcome you!

For those who wish the night would never end, the celebration continues at our "unofficial" after party! Join us for late night food and drinks at Z's Bar, located in downtown Grand Rapids. There will be a shuttle bus departing from the reception at 9:30pm, 10:30pm, and 11:30pm. It seats up to 31 people and will drop off near Rosa Parks Circle—a short walking distance from most downtown hotel options. Please be prepared to schedule an Uber, Lyft, or cab if space is limited.
