Beautiful hotel with easy to work with planning team

Our experience at the JW Marriott was first class. They were incredibly flexible to satisfy all of our requests & were so helpful the weekend of our wedding.

The staff was accommodating to all of our guests visiting for the weekend & checked in to make sure everything was as we liked. The event planning team was very easy to work with & allowed us to tweak the sequence of events, dining, drink packages & service experience on the night of our wedding, which was much appreciated.

Overall, I would recommend the Grand Rapids JW Marriott to anyone looking to get married in the area. Olivia Franklin was our primary contact & we had an amazing experience with her!

Best hotel resort wedding

Hard to put into words just how amazing this place was to be married at. They truly cover every base and couldn't provide a more heavenly type of service. From beginning to end they were professional, and easy to work with. On the wedding day everything I could've ever asked for was either already provided, or a hand wave away. I'm not joking when I say writing this right now I have tears of joy in my eyes, and expect to for the entirety of our marriage anytime these memory come to mind.

This venue has such a special place in my heart because we designed their very first wedding on October 12, 2007 just one month after opening. Since that time we have had the distinct honor of designing several unbelievable events. The entire staff is amazing and they make us feel like family the minute we walk through the door. I love the entire group at the JW! Thanks guys for featuring Alishan Fields wedding in your portfolio...what an honor!
