We were very happy with our ceremony at Grosse Pointe Academy Chapel. The chapel was breathtaking. We used a string trio for our music, and it set the mood perfectly. The only things negative things i can say are that they can take a while to get back to you, but that is because Peggy (who handles ceremony planning) is only in the office 3 days per week, also they were a little stringent on getting us out of the chapel immediately after the ceremony, since it costs so much to use the space, we were expecting a little more time to take pictures with our families. All in all, it was the perfect place to get married!
