The Dealership is everything my fiancé and I were looking for in a wedding venue. The aesthetic is perfect and we loved that it is a blank slate and that we can bring in our own food and DJ. The owner and staff were absolutely wonderful to work with. We also learned that we could rent tables, chairs and linens with them which helped us check something else off of our list. Highly recommend!

We had such an easy time planning primarily because we didn’t have to have to search for a ton of vendors. The community house had all the big things included. The food was delicious as was our cake (both thanks to the community house). Everyone agreed the venue was beautiful and the food was delicious!

The event space is beautiful, uniquely Detroit, and very big. Chris and his staff were super helpful! They did so many extra jobs for the day of the event that wasn't even their job to do. They also were super helpful in talking out how to best use the space and figure out what is best for your event. Chris is extremely professional and responds in a very timely manner.

In the months leading up to my wedding, we had three venues cancel. Two closed, another was shut down due to HVAC issues. The third cancelled TWO WEEKS before the wedding. Detroit Circle Center saved the day. They were so willing to work with us last minute, and I wish we had known about them beforehand to just go with them in the first place. The venue is beautiful, I think I initially described it to people as jazz age industrial vibes. I was immediately obsessed with the circular windows. The layout was absolutely perfect; one room for the ceremony, move one room over for drinks and appetizers, then downstairs for the reception. The staff were so helpful throughout the whole day, and they had a great recommendation for a bar tender. It truly was so easy to work with them exactly when I needed something easy and fast. The fact that they were willing to meet with us and the decorator multiple times and help us whip everything up in just two weeks was amazing. I could not recommend them enough for any event, they were absolutely wonderful.
