Choosing a venue for your Michigan wedding can be a daunting task because there are so many different options available and sometimes the photos that they have do not do a great job of showing off their space.
We wanted to create a resource that helped Michigan brides choose a venue for their weddings ceremony and receptions.
Back in 2008 we had done something similar but over the last 4 years we’ve had tons of new photos and some new locations as well so we figured it would be a good idea to do a new post.
The venues are all listed in alphabetical order for convenience and not in any type of preferential order. I indicated in the link title if I have pics from ceremonies and receptions. However, some of these venues might offer both even though we have only shot one or the other.

Kyle and Kristin were so much fun to hang out with. We really enjoyed getting to pull them away from the stress and craziness of the wedding to do some great wedding pictures with them before the ceremony. The Michigan wedding ceremony was held at St. Hugo’s chapel which is one of the most beautiful churches in Michigan; we love shooting there. After the ceremony we had the chance to take them and their bridal party to downtown Birmingham for more photos. They definitely had the right group of people…they were ready to have some fun with no prompting at all!! The wedding reception followed at the Palazzo Grande in Shelby Township which is a beautiful venue with high ceilings, gorgeous chandeliers and one of the best dessert bars around, done by Vito’s Bakery! Viviano’s did an amazing job with the flowers. Mel Ball and Colours kept the dance floor hopping, and Pat Blackwell did a nice job of keeping the day flowing smoothly.

Chad and Lauren are very unique and creative people who do things their own way. This made for a very special michigan wedding and we were glad to be there to photograph it. The wedding ceremony was in a beautiful wooded at Stoney Creek Metro Park in Michigan. It was very peaceful and serene with all the decor being designed and created by the groom himself. Everything from the programs to their vows had their own spin. Their daughter Briony brought smiles to everyone! The ceremony was followed by a wonderful cocktail hour and reception at La Sala in Rochester, MI. La Sala is a very modern wedding venue with built in lighting to help set the mood.

We’ve been looking forward to Joel and Carol’s wedding ever since they booked with us. They live on an amazing property right near us in Rochester Hills. 5 acres of gardens, ponds, waterfalls, and wildlife. It was an incredible setting for a wedding ceremony and cocktail hour and all the finest details were taken care of by the team from the China Closet. Unfortunately due to threatening rain, they had to put tents up to make sure everyone stayed dry but it was still a beautiful setting. After the ceremony, the guests made their way to the Royal Park Hotel in downtown Rochester for an intimate wedding reception in the Royal Park Conservatory.

They had a special guest make an appearance.

Joel and Carol were taken to the Royal Park by horse and carriage.

We were able to get some more great shots of the bride and groom at the elegant Royal Park Hotel.
