Our six-part series on West Michigan wedding venues culminates with one of the world’s foremost horticultural display gardens and sculpture parks– Frederik Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park.
Better known for its abundant gardens and incredible sculptures, annual butterfly exhibition, and summer concert series, Frederik Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park is a wedding venue you won’t want to miss. This vast building can accommodate as many as 1,200 guests within its grand halls. Because Meijer Gardens is an attraction, when booking the venue for your matrimonial merrymaking, you and your guests receive free admission to select areas of the park to enjoy.
Décor is seldom required, as Meijer Gardens offers a variety of beautiful spaces to hold a ceremony. Kiss your new spouse beneath the glittering Chihuly sculpture or tie the knot in one of the breathtaking greenhouses.
