This West Side landmark, with its 150-foot iconic smokestack, has been transformed into an event destination like no other in Grand Rapids. Towering historical windows, original exposed brick and structural steel, and soaring open-architecture ceilings recall the bygone days of America’s Gilded Age. With two distinct, expansive, and column-free reception spaces, cocktail lounge, outdoor amphitheater and courtyard, and abundant FREE on-site parking, New Vintage Place is the ideal venue for any event requiring a unique character that will leave an unforgettable impression.

I thought this place was beautiful and I was really excited to get married here. I love that they have a bridal and groom suite. It made it easier to make sure everyone was there. However, it made the day really stressful on how strict they are with getting access to the venue. It really cuts the day in half because most hair and make up people won’t start at one location and move to another like the venue for example. We couldn’t get access to the venue until noon unless we paid extra which we already were paying a lot for the venue and all the extras if we wanted. That made the day the most stressful, it was hard to enjoy the getting ready process. Otherwise overall I had so many compliments on how beautiful the venue was.

The Waddell Center was the perfect venue for our wedding. With a great location and reasonable prices, it was an easy choice for us. The space itself is spacious and absolutely beautiful - our guests were blown away by how elegant and well-appointed it was. Everyone at The Waddell Center, especially our coordinator Bre, was so helpful throughout the planning process. Bre answered every question we had and made sure the entire day went as smoothly as possible. She truly went above and beyond to ensure we were happy and stress-free. We couldn't have asked for a better venue or team to work with for our special day. Another perk is the parking lot! Anything close to downtown never has appropriate/easy parking and this had more than enough!
