A wedding is a time to celebrate with great friends and
family.
Boy……. did we ever on Saturday,
January 21
st!
Finding the
right location to have a wedding can be a stressful situation.
So why not have a wedding in a city full of
history and beautiful architecture?
That
is exactly what the bride and groom did!
The ceremony was held at the
Masonic Temple.
I was in awe of the beautiful neo-gothic
architecture and embellished details in the woodwork and masonry.
The Masonic Temple has been in existence
since the 1920s, I can only imagine the lavish events that have taken place in
the ballroom, theater, and chapel.
To
have your own wedding there and be part of history is quite an experience.
As the wedding party and bride entered to a
live bag pipe player I was trying to soak it all in (I cannot imagine what was
going through the bride’s mind).
The
bride looked beautiful and the ceremony was exceptional.

The night’s festivities had only just begun.
We then headed to the
Roosertail for some
fine wining, dining, and dancing.
Since
the Roostertail’s inception in 1958 it has remained an “icon” in the social
scene of Detroit.
This explains why the
bride and groom picked the Roostertail for their big day!

The night started upstairs with dinner and drinks. As the night progressed we moved downstairs
to the after party! It entailed a huge
amount of disco balls, desserts, dancing, drinking, and fun!
Of course the night could not be complete without a visit to
the photo booth!
From there guests were shuttled to Motor City Casino Hotel. Where endless outcomes to the night were
possible…………….
I think Detroit
is a great location for weddings because it symbolizes many key points in a
relationship. It has a vast history and
it has had its ups and downs, but never gives up. All in all the day was amazing and I wish the
bride and groom all the best!

events in Detroit. Whether it is the wedding itself or
engagement pictures, bachelor/bachelorette parties, showers, etc.
