One reason Ben and Ruth chose The Cheney Place as their wedding venue was that they thought Adam would love it. And they were very right! A repurposed industrial warehouse littered with vignetted scenes, each with its own eclectic mix of vintage furniture and all the natural light you could ask for – it was like a dream come true! Ben and Ruth shared their first look and then we played around in the beautiful spaces for a while. Even with so much to work with at the venue we absolutely had to take the opportunity to steal the couple away and explore a bit of Grand Rapids, Michigan. We found lovely cocktails and scenes at Social Misfits, then we hit the streets to find some urban art and industrial building backdrops. We returned for some group photos and then a beautiful ceremony that had us all in tears. And yes – Ruth did enter from the freight elevator! The night continued on with lots of love, laughter, and a few more tears. Please enjoy their photos. Also, know of any warehouses for sale? Asking for a friend.
