The Emerald Theatre is a gorgeous historic venue located in the heart of downtown Mount Clemens, MI. Designed by C. Howard Crane, built in 1921, is a beautifully restored venue boasting three levels, exquisite gold-gilded ornate plaster walls, opera boxes, and an elevated stage with professionally designed specialty lighting and a concert-quality sound system, of course! Announce your event in style with a special message on our marquee and our outdoor digital screen, which faces the huge public parking lot directly behind the theatre. The intimate, oh-so-cool vibe of the Rock Room is perfect for cocktail hour and pictures.

The Emerald Theatre sets the stage for an extraordinary and memorable vow exchange and reception, featuring truly spectacular decor sure to enchant and surprise your guests. Step inside and find yourself drawn to the dramatic stage, soaring ceiling, and classic opera boxes. Following the ceremony, take in the splendor from the stunning vantage point of the balcony and take time for a few photos before joining guests on the mezzanine or a private bar for a cocktail. The stage has an option to be transformed into a dining area for your evening reception, and following dinner, the ultimate dance floor is ready for you and your guests to dance the night away.

As an inclusive venue, we assist in coordinating all aspects of your event while you make memories and enjoy your special day. The Emerald Theatre offers flexible packages designed for intimate to elaborate weddings (up to 250 guests) and tailored to your preferences for a unique, personalized experience. Our team of dedicated event specialists includes a wedding coordinator who is available to help you craft your perfect wedding/reception package, answer questions, and meet with associated vendors. Our catering is from our sister company, D'Amatos, where we've served amazing food for nearly 25 years. D'Amatos can create a delicious menu with a selection of hors d'oeuvres and main courses. A complimentary tasting is included in advance, allowing you to sample different dishes and select your favorite menu items. We also provide alternatives for any dietary preferences, including vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, and dairy-free options. Friendly and professional bartenders serve refreshments and personalized signature cocktails from an open or cash bar to compliment your meal.

Simply The Best!

We were the poster child for the COVID engagement, and spent nearly 24 months engaged due to the pandemic. To top it off it was an LGBT+ wedding. So our stress/fears were high about the entire process. As the spring of 2021 came about we realized that we were going to likely be able to finally put on our wedding, and after looking at dozens of venues, we knew the second we walked into the Emerald it was THE PERFECT spot for our wedding.

The team there was attentive to our every need, and the best thing I can share is that from the owner, to our amazing coordinators, to the servers, every single person seemed to truly and deeply care about making sure our special day was truly that (that you will not find almost anywhere else in our experience). If you are looking for a place that will deliver a unique and wonderful atmosphere that will leave your family and friends talking about your wedding for years to come, this is the place.

On a technical level, we had a lounge singer for the cocktail hour, a live band for the reception, and performed the ceremony right there as well, in addition to having all of our photos taken prior to the ceremony. It was all handled seamlessly and our guests raved about what a great "flow" the entire day had to it! Their teams pulled off all those moving parts like the pros they are!

Also, the food from D'Amatos was unbelievable!!!! The shrimp, the beef, the rice balls, all of it was truly great and the staff there also did a truly remarkable job even at our tasting menu appointment.

We just keep hoping one of our friends decide to get married there too so we can experience it guests!

Absolutely amazing!

Great accommodations for any size budget! They will work with you to make your dream wedding come true! Wedding was 2-2 (the day of the big snowstorm) and the venue called a couple days before offering to postpone if I chose to, but assuring me they were ready for my big day! Great communication and great staff! Couldn’t have asked for a better venue! Thank you guys for making my wedding amazing!!
