About this venue

Let’s be honest: your love story isn’t boring, so why on earth would you get married in a beige ballroom?

Welcome to Three Cats Cafe, a totally unique wedding venue and event space right in the heart of Clawson, Michigan. Housed in a gorgeous, historic movie theater, this chic little slice of heaven boasts eclectic decor, insanely delicious wedding catering, and five-star service that will make you feel like royalty on your big day. We’ve even got historic vehicles on site for that perfect photo op, and—blessedly—blissfully ample parking.

The Vibe - Facilities & Capacity

Once upon a time, this space was the historic Clawson Theater, the absolute crown jewel of the city’s entertainment scene back in the day. We’ve kept every ounce of that vintage, retro charm but cranked up the modern elegance. It is, quite frankly, a stunning historic wedding venue.

Whether you’re throwing a swanky, intimate rehearsal dinner or a full-blown wedding reception, we’ve got you covered. We comfortably seat up to 125 of your favorite people for a seated dinner, or we can host 155 standing for a cocktail party reception they’ll be talking about for years. Plus, we’re just two miles off I-75 with tons of parking, meaning your Aunt Linda won’t get lost trying to find us from the Detroit metro area.


The Good Stuff - Services & Food

Planning a wedding can be a circus, but you get to work with Yvonne, our resident wedding planner and event-management genius. She has over a decade of experience, which means she knows how to handle everything so you can actually enjoy your own party.

And don't get me started on the food. Our catering crew does an elevated, wildly innovative take on American cuisine. Your guests will be treated to fresh salads, delectable small plates, and mouthwatering mains like our famous braised short rib and mushroom risotto.

Pro tip: Save room for dessert. The salted butterscotch brûlée and tiramisu cheesecake are worth breaking any diet for.

Naturally, we have top-tier bar packages to keep the craft cocktails flowing all night long. At Three Cats, we don't just host events—we create seamless, stress-free, absolutely spectacular memories. Drop us a line and let’s start planning your party!

We had the best wedding

My now wife and I approached 3 Cats about hosting our wedding and they knocked it out of the park. They were as enthusiastic as we were about the whole endeavor. We worked with the chef to establish a menu. We worked with the bar staff to create signature cocktails. Everything we ever asked if we could do, was met with a resounding yes. Every wedding we go to we compare to ours and nothing has come close; and our friends agree.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
