Book Tower in Detroit is a must-see downtown destination. One of the most iconic buildings in the city’s skyline, Book Tower was designed by architect Louis Kamper and originally opened in 1926. Today, the landmark 38-story building has been lovingly restored and renovated to include luxury residences; Roost, an apartment-style hotel; a vibrant collection of restaurants for all palates, including Le Suprême, a French brasserie that The New York Times called a “portal to Paris;” and some of the most beautiful event space the city has to offer. At Book Tower, couples will find everything they need for an unforgettable wedding weekend — all under one roof.

Bookish couples will fall in love with Flyleaf, an intimate bookstore, bar and café in Grosse Pointe. While not a traditional wedding venue, the second floor Reading Room is a private space that accommodates small gatherings of up to 12 guests. With shelves of books to browse and a menu that includes elevated small plates, literary house cocktails and an exceptional wine collection, Flyleaf is a sophisticated destination for small bachelorette parties, bridal showers, or micro wedding celebrations.

The Millhaven is so much more than an event space. Located in Marshall and housed in an 1896 granary mill and factory complete with a grain elevator, The Millhaven offers a European-inspired garden center, gourmet market and gifting boutique, a café serving delectable lunch and dinner menus, and two unique event spaces for gatherings up to 250 guests. Founded by Jennifer Ederer — the creative mind behind luxury bed & breakfast and event venue, Greencrest Manor, and floral and event design studio, Modern Day Collective — every perfectly crafted detail at The Millhaven has a sense of artistry and eclectic charm.
