We had the wedding of our dreams here! The venue is stunning & the food was amazing. Lilly was great at helping us along every step of the way & answering my millions of emails in a timely fashion! I loved that they had the option for chivari chairs instead of just the banquet chairs. We were a little worried about the golfers going by during our ceremony but we didn’t see anyone! Our ceremony was at 4:30pm in September & it was nice & quiet for us! The one downside is they don’t have a designated “getting ready” suite, but we were able to book an Airbnb & hotel not too far from the venue & used that instead! It was nice not having to worry about catering or bar services being separate either. The dance floor was plenty big & I loved they it was right next to the bar to make it easy to drink & dance! We had about 125 guests & they all fit nice but I definitely wouldn’t have felt comfortable having many more as the tables went almost to the dance floor. Highly recommend this venue!

We had such a great experience with Plymouth Manor for our wedding reception. They were able to accommodate our intimate reception of 60 guest. Aya and Sam were so amazing and helpful, they nailed it! The food and staff was great. They were even able to help us find a DJ who was amazing, before they helped us I was so worried about a DJ, so to have them be able to help, was truly amazing. We even at the end decided to upgrade the lighting, which was a great choice. Everything looked great and went so smoothly and we and our guest had a blast. My best friend had her reception there over 10 years and she recommend them and I would also highly recommend Plymouth Manor. If there is another life event in our life that we would need to host, I would definitely go back to Plymouth Manor.

Hello! My name is Tony Coppola and I’d like to take this time to tell you a little bit about myself and CC King Entertainment. I began my musical journey when I was 12 years old as a singer and drummer. Over ten years ago, I built a home recording studio and named it CC King Studio. Shortly after, I DJ’d my first wedding and CC King Entertainment was born! After DJing hundreds of weddings, my business allowed me to leave my 16-year career as an occupational therapist. I ALWAYS go the extra mile to personalize my wedding services. I also have the distinct honor to work with an amazing team of Michigan wedding DJs!

CC King Entertainment Review – Outstanding DJ & Photo Booth Services! We recently hired CC King Entertainment for our Hawaiian themed birthday party, and they truly made the celebration unforgettable! From start to finish, their professionalism, energy, and attention to detail were exceptional. The DJ service was top-notch—Tommy played the perfect mix of songs to keep the party going all night. He knew how to read the crowd, seamlessly transitioning between genres and ensuring that everyone, from kids to adults, had a great time on the dance floor. He accommodated special song requests, lead the hula hoop contest and the limbo contest. He was great to work with. The photo booth was an absolute hit! It was set up beautifully, stocked with fun props, and provided high-quality prints for our guests to take home as keepsakes. Rafael was friendly and helpful, making sure everyone got their perfect shot. He also put together a book filled with copies of the pictures for my family to have as a keepsake and he encouraged guests to sign the book & add special messages. And then on top of that, we received a link to access digital copies of the photos! Wonderful added bonuses that we were not expecting! Overall, CC King Entertainment exceeded our expectations. Their services added so much energy and excitement to our party, and we can’t recommend them enough. If you’re looking for a DJ and photo booth that will elevate your event, CC King Entertainment is the way to go!

Jeron was fantastic throughout our entire engagement and wedding process! He was super communicative, professional, and knowledgeable which was a huge stress relief throughout all the planning. He did our engagement photos too as part of our package, and was even able to find us a second photographer last minute for the wedding due to our time constraints. He is a 10/10 person to work with, and we are SO happy with our photos!

The Eastern is a wonderful industrial, versatile venue in the heart of Eastern Market in downtown Detroit! This venue comes as a blank slate. So many different options as to how you can dress this venue up for a wedding/event. Be sure to use the few large wooden tables it comes with for your buffet table, hors d’oeuvre table, seating outdoors, head-table etc. Look no further than The Eastern or The Norwood for your wedding! I would recommend this venue to any couple looking to have a wedding in a unique spot, rather than a ballroom.

I will say, never needing a Photo Booth vendor before I was a little leary trying to decide how to find one for my Daughter's wedding. I contacted many and never received a response from quite a few! But my email to Prime Photo Booth was the best decision ever! Not only was I able to view real videos of their set up on their social media pages, their communication was fabulous!

Choosing them was the best decision of our entire wedding. I didn’t worry once about pictures or video because I trusted them fully. When I got everything back I literally sobbed. They caught moments I never saw, like my dad wiping a tear during the vows. The colors are stunning, warm but not fake. The way they caught golden hour shots of us holding hands looks straight out of a magazine. The video is beyond what I imagined, especially with the music choices. I loved that they included clips of our guests laughing and hugging us. My best friend keeps saying she wants to hire them for her wedding too. Every single guest I’ve shown the photos to says they are incredible. Honestly, they’re worth double what they charge. Truly unforgettable.

Our Story. Thank you for considering Lasting Touch Photography. My name is Lori Jane, I am the owner and lead photographer. With over 20 years of experience freelancing for 4 studios and 3 newspapers, I decided to branch out on my own. I opened Lasting Touch Photography after the birth of my twin boys. As the business grew I added talented photographers and a Photo Booth rental service. Our team are talented artists, like me, who truly love what we do- capturing memories!

Mark from Lasting Touch was nothing short of a miracle worker. We were planning a small wedding on a very tight budget and he and his wife Lori found a way for us to get everything we needed and wanted at a price we could afford. On the day, Mark arrived right on time and was easy-going but professional, and was a wonderful extra eye and helping hand, all while getting perfect shots. Our completed photos came faster than expected, and we were blown away by the number and quality of each photo. Thank you again!

I started photographing weddings in 2003 and eventually left my day job as a designer to do photography full-time, but I’ve never been able to turn the designer off. In addition to photos, I create a few animated gifs from every session. My style is influenced by design principles, architecture, Edward Hopper paintings, plus films by Stanley Kubrick & Denis Villeneuve. While composing I put as much attention into the scene as the subjects. I prefer to cover events solo and do my own editing, posting teasers the next day. I’m based in the Detroit area but cover weddings all over America.

Awarded Best of Zola
It's not a joke when I say that I've known of JLB longer than I've known my husband. I found him on Facebook well over a decade ago and fell in love with his work on the spot, going so far as to say, "If I ever get married, I want JLB to be the photographer." Absolute best judgment call from a 20-something-year-old kid to hang onto that dream, and I'm beyond excited that I got the chance to actually follow through with that reality. Jeffrey was phenomenal to work with, and he made it feel easy to get two incredibly awkward people into the perfect shot every time. I was most excited for the pictures to come back from the wedding, and he truly delivered. If you want the most magical, artistic, beautiful pictures of your life, JLB is the one. I’d 10000/10 recommend, but the photos really speak for themselves.

From Bridal to Bachelorette, from Photo Shoots to Parties -- we cover all areas of Makeup! In addition to providing modern, top-of-the-line makeup service, The Makeup Loft also offers Special event hairstyling, Cosmetic Color Consultation, and Makeup Lessons covering all spectrums of beautification.

I have never felt more beautiful than I did on my wedding day, and that is all thanks to the Makeup Loft!  From the beginning, before I even signed the contract, the ladies at the Makeup Loft were a joy to work with. Allie was a wonderful coordinator - she answered all my questions and communicated promptly.  My trial was so much fun and I felt like I was truly heard. On my wedding day the 4 stylists - Taylor (MUA), Ryleigh (MUA), Chaney (Hair Stylist), and Mikayla (Hair Stylist) were right on time, set up very quickly, and were ready to go. The kept everyone on schedule and were out the door at the correct time. Logistics aside - everyone looked STUNNING. Like truly the most gorgeous version of themselves. What I love about Makeup Loft is they don't try to transform you; they truly bring out the beauty you already have. There were many selfies taken. The hair was similarly magical. It didn't matter if the girls had the thickest curly hair or the finest straight hair everyone's vision became a reality. I have to shout out my personal stylists who I could not possibly say enough positive things about. Chaney must have special powers because I don't know how she managed to get my hair to look like it did. I have always had fine curly hair, and she somehow got it to look like the pictures below in about an hour. I got so many compliments all night (and yes, it stayed exactly like that all night). And Taylor. Taylor is not only an amazing MUA but she is also an amazing person to have with you on your wedding day. My make-up was perfect. I was glowing and I have never felt more beautiful. She took my trial look and elevated it x1000. The make-up lasted all night through multiple hours of dancing. Taylor also went above and beyond to help with my mom who has dementia. She made sure she looked beautiful and was taken care of all morning. The compassion and care she showed me and her on this day really means and says so much about her, the rest of the team (who were also amazing with her), and the Makeup Loft in general. If you want to look like the best version of yourself, feel like a princess, and be treated like family I cannot recommend Makeup Loft enough!!!

Tim was great from the moment we hired him to the very last minute of our wedding!! Communicative up until day of and knocked it out of the park with music! We had a bit of a shorter wedding day and limited time to set up, but he was great through it all. We had a snafu before our ceremony with our officiant and he was very understanding and helpful about the delay, it really eased my worries. We had a very small venue and his set up was perfect - I never felt cramped even though our dancing space was small. I will be recommending him to all my friends in need of an awesome DJ!

The Roostertail was the perfect venue for our wedding day. From the beginning, their communication was timely, flexible, and personable - Nicole, Colleen, and Shawna were all a pleasure to work with. The preparation leading up to our big day was so helpful, ensuring everything went smoothly. On the day of, they checked in multiple times to make sure all was well and address any questions or concerns. The true star of the Roostertail, though, is their stunning riverfront view, which speaks for itself as one of the most beautiful settings we could have imagined for our special celebration. We are so grateful to the entire Roostertail team for making our wedding day absolutely perfect. We love and thank you all! Love, The Nappos!

Crystal and her stylists were wonderful to work with! They worked well within our vision and brought levity and professionalism to the preparations and the day itself—keeping us primped, hydrated, and laughing. We had some small scheduling hiccups in the weeks heading up to the event and things were rescheduled and fit in immediately without batting an eye. Everyone's hair and make-up held beautifully throughout the evening without every feeling restrictive. The perfect choice to help our wedding feel and look effortless!

Emily was outstanding!! She's so friendly and very talented. With the package my husband and I picked, we got to spend time with her during our engagement session and also had a one on one meeting to go over our wedding day schedule. We really got to know her and genuinely enjoyed spending our wedding day with her. Even guests committed on how fun yet professional she was. We 100% recommend!!!!
