Aquinas College was the picture-perfect venue and exceeded my expectations in every way. I grew up in Grand Rapids and never knew just how beautiful the campus is! We were married in the stunning Holmdene Garden and made the short walk across the beautiful campus to the Wege Ballroom for our reception. From day one, Mark and Callie, along with all the other staff at Aquinas, worked with us to plan our dream wedding. We took inspiration from the beautiful brick buildings with the climbing ivy for all the little details. Any questions/concerns were addressed in a timely manner, and Mark and Callie went above and beyond to work with us and our other vendors. I cannot express all of the compliments we received from family, friends, and other vendors on the Aquinas venue and staff. The appetizers and dinner were given high praise by all of our guests! How convenient it was to have everything all in one place. Our guests did not have to drive all over town, and we took all photos on the picturesque campus as well! One of my favorite perks of using this venue was having the historic Holmdene Manor for the rehearsal dinner and to gather and get ready in the day of the wedding. You can't beat the stunning backdrop and beautifully crafted details that truly make Aquinas College one of a kind. I only wish I would not have wasted time and effort looking at other venues when they were the whole package! I am so thankful for the expertise and hard work by Mark and Callie (and their teams), and I could not have been more impressed with all they did! I highly recommend Aquinas College! Here are some of the beautiful photos our talented photographers (Matt + Abby Photography) captured of our wedding at Aquinas College! http://mattandabby.us/blog-voetberg.php

I can't say enough good things about working with Aquinas and Callie Continenza for our wedding. The food was amazing and we received so many compliments from our guest. The Wege Ballroom was transformed into the venue I always imagined and the night went so smoothly thanks to Callie and her staff. You won't find a better value for a wedding venue in Grand Rapids!

I had my wedding ceremony in the Holmdene Garden at Aquinas. I was beautiful and the vendor was great to work with. They were focused on making sure our day came out exactly how we wanted all the way through the process. I would recommned this space and vendor to anyone for an outdoor wedding in GR.

I've been to lots of meetings and special events at Aquinas as well as providing chiar covers for a wedding or two. The grounds are beautiful and the staff will work hard to make your event special.
