Wedding Information

Offering memorable on-site amenities and a trove of regional excursions, Grand Traverse Resort and Spa is Michigan's premiere wedding destination. You'll experience a combination of wedding services and unrivaled amenities.

The expert hands of our spa professionals relax bride and attendants with lavish spa treatments and massages, and can fashion perfectly styled hair and makeup for the bridal party. Groomsmen and guests can enjoy a pre-wedding round of golf on one of our three championship golf courses, a tension-releasing game of tennis, or relaxing whirlpool.

86,500 square feet of indoor and outdoor function space gives you ultimate flexibility in selecting the venue for your special day, and our wedding staff is practiced at bringing your vision to life.

Your wedding guests can also enjoy downhill and cross-country skiing, sleigh rides, ice-skating and other winter activities.

We've earned a national reputation as a premier wedding destination not only because of our select on-site amenities, but also because of our team's attention to detail and expertise in collaborating with various parties, including the bridal couple's parents, wedding planners, and outside vendors chosen by the bride and groom.
