Detroit Yacht Club

The DYC was the perfect venue for my daughter's wedding which was held in the beautiful fountain room. The staff went out of their way to ensure it was a perfect day. The food was absolutely fabulous (we recommend the salmon & filet duet plate). Both Lena and Kasia in the Catering department were amazing and ensured that no details were missed. The day was stress free thanks to them and Kasia, who was working during the event, was attentive and responsive to all questions and requests. Thank you DYC! We will be back.

The DYC was incredible and we couldn't have picked a better venue for our wedding, it is truly a beautiful building, we barely needed any decorations! Lena was very kind and helped everything run super smoothly, and the food was also amazing!

My dream was to get married in Detroit and Belle Isle was always my happy place. So, when we found DYC as a potential venue for our wedding day, I was hopeful it would be a good fit. I was dazzled by the venue space and fell in love. It ended up being the best backdrop for our wedding. We rented the Trophy room to get ready and regroup during the day. The guests were very impressed with the building, the history, the beautiful view of the water, skyline and sunset. The catering manager was professional, communicative and we received a great quality of service and value. And the Food! Everyone loved the food! Servers and bartenders also took good care of our guests.

Getting married at the DYC was one of our very best wedding decisions. We knew we wanted to get married in the city of Detroit and saw several venues, but the Yacht Club stood out for several reasons. The pricing was fair and everything was up front with service fees/gratuities etc. which is hugely helpful when budgeting. We worked with Samantha who was awesome- easy to communicate with and very responsive to emails. And every staff member we encountered during the wedding was awesome. The space is also incredibly beautiful, we loved being able to have the ceremony and reception in the same room. It was a perfect size for our 175 person wedding. The veranda for cocktail hour and cigars was perfect too- it ended up raining during our reception but everything is covered so we could still enjoy the outdoors, which is super helpful when trying to plan around Michigan’s sometimes unpredictable weather. I cannot recommend the DYC enough!

My husband and I loved everything about get married at DYC. The staff was so attentive, especially Samantha, whose customer service skills are really unparalleled. All aspects of our wedding there were executed flawlessly by staff, down to the smallest details. The food was AMAZING. Pricing is very fair and they do not nickel and dime you, which was our biggest complaint during venue shopping. The space is so grand and beautiful and timeless. Samantha, Sarah and Chef Nicolai went outside the box to accommodate our special requests and make sure we were happy. If Samantha was annoyed with how type A we were during the planning process, she never showed it. We will cherish our memories there forever. Thank you so much DYC!

Our wedding at the DYC was fantastic. Sam (Catering Sales) and Sarah (Banquet Director) were very helpful in the lead up to and on the day of our event. The staff was helpful and attentive as well. The food was delicious. I was so impressed filets and chicken were cooked perfectly for our group of 100 people. The Fountain Room is a beautiful space and was set perfect for our day. Sara even had staff help adjust tables after seeing the room to make sure people did not feel crowded. We were checked on through the event to make sure things were going well. Fantastic experience for our wedding.

Working with the DYC for our wedding was an excellent experience - Samantha was incredibly professional, responsive, flexible, and did everything she could to make our wedding visions come to life! The serving staff was also very professional and did a great job during the event as well. The venue is incredibly unique and gorgeous, the veranda makes the whole evening even more unforgettable, and the setting on the river is just beautiful. 10/10 would recommend having your wedding here!

Sam at the Detroit Yacht Club us absolutely the best…very organized pays attention to detail and delivers a perfect day! The food and drinks were amazing and the venue accommodated special requests and knocked it out of the park! The building is beautiful and they are so easy to work with! Sam is your girl if you’re looking for the perfect day!

We cannot say enough amazing things about the Detroit Yacht Club! They made all our wedding dreams come true! Samantha was fantastic to work with from start to finish. She was very attentive and accommodating throughout the planning process. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful with the historic ballroom and the covered veranda overlooking the river and the perfectly manicured grounds. Our guests raved about the food! Many said it was the best food they have ever had at a wedding! We were so pleased with everything the DYC had to offer and would recommend it to anyone looking for the perfect wedding venue!

I can’t complain about anything really. The only thing I didn’t care for was that they only took cash. So I couldn’t charge anything (venue, food, alcohol). The price was great but cash was difficult. I sent payments through my “bill pay” on my bank app. I was extremely happy with everything.
