Expensive experience just to get normal food and drinks
DeVos Place - Grand Rapids
$20 entry and they recommend $20 in tasting tickets. All drinks are 4-5 tickets with some outliers being 3. Soooo many brands that are just in your every day life. Nothing new or extravagant. The food isn’t samples or tasting at all, it’s whole plates that cost waaay more because they’re plates. I sampled a bottle of wine that retails for $15, got a 1oz. pour for $1.50. How does that make sense??? It’s just a giant money grab. You spend money to get into an event where you spend a ton more money.

First timer
DeVos Place - Grand Rapids
As an older person and 1st timer, more seating would have been a HUGE plus. Even bench seating along the edges. Also, better lighting in the building, which wasn’t the fault of the event but the building . String lighting would have provided more ambiance to otherwise boring and unwelcoming decor. It was overall, uneventful. Nothing to be excited about. I suppose my expectations were set too high.

Not so great
DeVos Place - Grand Rapids
Really did not like the digital food and drink tickets and there was nothing indicating you could buy them other than on your phone when you entered. Even with WiFi my sister's phone took forever to send the email to her phone. the drink and food selection was excellent but getting the tickets was stressful

Fun evening
DeVos Place - Grand Rapids
All was great! The music, vendors, the crowd. Would have liked to have seen 3x as many food vendors. And, the online sampler ticket feature was not accurate, functioning or helpful. You could only purchase “1 sampler ticket” at a time. Info on suggested quantities to purchase or average sample pricing not presented.

Pricy per wine tasting
DeVos Place - Grand Rapids
We wanted to really enjoy a night of food and wine. Huge Ticketmaster fees to buy the food and wine pairings tickets scuttled that when we would have had to still buy entrance tickets. And I'm not sure who made the money from the individual wine pours, but 57 tickets ($28.50) for a high end pour? (literally not more than a shot of wine) There were some interesting local eateries and other vendors.

Disappointing
DeVos Place - Grand Rapids
VERY disappointing! Pretty ordinary wines. Volunteers that didn't know anything about them Not worth the money

Great event. Lots of variety.

I feel like the on-line tickets process could have been better. Two different sites to go to for the same event. Not very user friendly...should have been a one stop shop and then you couldn't view your ticket balance. Would have also liked to see more food vendors. But overall, a great event, lots of spirits to pick from.
