Perfect Art Deco Venue for any Classic or Eclectic Ceremony

Overall this is an extremely memorable and historic spot to tie the knot. If you have the budget, it is absolutely worth it. I could not imagine my ceremony in any other location.

My husband and I are Detroiters, but most of our family is out of state. We wanted to choose a venue that would highlight the amazing historic architecture in the city. The Fisher Building arcade was the perfect ceremony location for us. Our guests loved it! We had so many guests thank us for intentionally showing them such an amazing building in the city and not picking a standard country club or hotel venue. When guests are traveling they often want a chance to experience what makes your hometown special. The Fisher Building is a unique venue that does not compromise on elegance.

It was also so special to be have our ceremony at a public location that we can visit whenever we want. We were married in early October and have already planned a coffee date for our first month of marriage.

I would strongly suggest that all couples purchase the Coordination Package add on. The team made sure the ceremony was executed flawlessly and was extremely detailed day of. We started and ended exactly on time. Which is a wedding miracle!

I should note that the building is open to the public 7 days a week. It will not be a totally private ceremony. We had a few people on the second floor overlook who peaked in during the ceremony, which was a little fun. We did not mind at all. There were absolutely no visual or noise disturbances during the ceremony. However if you want 100% private event, this might not be the spot for you.

We ran into a scheduling issue the month of our wedding and the team was quick to provide an action plan and was extremely patient as we talked through our concerns. I did not feel pressure to make a decision too quickly or compromise any of our big day plans. In the end the action plan was perfect and there were no issues day of. I really appreciated knowing that an expert staff 100% available if we needed absolutely anything.

Seriously, get married here!
