The best day ever!

I honestly can’t say enough great things about the Cheney place and their staff. From our first tour to the day of they helped make everything go so smoothly. Our day of coordinators were amazing and made my Pinterest board a reality. Fringe made our event look so beautiful! We had so much fun utilizing their design space! Punch bar service was so great! We loved the beer package, the selection was amazing and the bar tenders were so fun! Not having to pack up at the end of the night was such a blessing so that we could go home and go to bed because we were exhausted from the best day ever!! You can’t go wrong at the Cheney place! Everyone hyped it up to me and I knew it would be great but they were beyond my expectations!

Cheney was so so amazing!! The staff is extremely helpful along the wedding process and especially on the day of! We had the pleasure of working with Colleen as our day of coordinator and she made our dream day come true! We couldn’t have done this all without her. We got so many compliments on how amazing the venue was and how nice the staff was as well! Thank you so much Cheney place for going above and beyond for us to make our dream day come true!

Definitely the hottest venue in Grand Rapids this past year, and looking to be hot for a while! Excellent location, and a really great looking facility. Plenty of space both upstairs and down!

Heritage Hill String Quartet Heritage Hill String Quartet Wedding Musicians

This is a great venue for a wedding. Our string quartet has performed at The Cheney Place mulitple times. The space has a warm feeling with lots of light and rich hardwood floors. The place settings for the latest reception were just beautiful -upscale shabby chic. Good parking too - much easier than in the center of downtown Grand Rapids.
