  The best wedding venue in Detroit!

  We are so grateful we were able to have our wedding ceremony and reception at The Whiskey Factory - Detroit City Distillery. From the moment we booked the venue to the time the last guest left, the team at The Whiskey Factory made us feel like we were the only two people on earth getting married that day. Bethany was a dream to work with for the planning, and her cohort Alyssa is also top notch. No call went unanswered, no email not promptly returned, and no detail was missed. The day of your wedding is always a little nerve wracking, and to see the entire team pull it off so seamlessly was beyond impressive. We talked to several other venues and none of them seemed as dialed in as the staff at The Whiskey Factory. For us not having an actual wedding planner and doing it all ourselves, Bethany and Alyssa made us feel comfortable and took so much of the extra work and stress off our plates. If you're getting married in Detroit, The Whiskey Factory - Detroit City Distillery should without a doubt be a venue to consider.

  Love the whiskey factory!

  We got married at the Whiskey Factory in September of 2023 and I can't imagine us choosing any other venue. The industrial, moody vibe was just what we wanted. We were able to customize the space; picking the tables, chairs and linens we wanted and working with the WF team to create a floor plan. So many of our guests commented on the unique atmosphere. They also couldn't stop raving about the next level DCD cocktails and delicious food through Two Unique.
  
  The whole WF team was so kind, patient and responsive throughout the planning process. Alyssa, Amelia and Bethany were absolute pros the day of, making sure everything was running smoothly, keeping us calm and ensuring that each moment was special. I wish we could go back and do it all over again!

  Wedding review

  Having a wedding here was like a page out of a fairy tail. This place really does make your wedding dream become a reality.
  We got married in exactly 1 year to the day we were engaged. We were always adamant about having a Detroit wedding but weren’t sure where where to start. We came across the Whisky Factory and fell in love with it immediately. Booking it was one of the easiest and best decisions that we have ever made.
  
  Whether it was when we first secured our date, the constant communication and check-ins at certain points before the wedding to make sure we were as ready as could be, or the day of, there communication, insight, and efforts made for the perfect wedding. They have an amazing event team, but have to give a special shout-out to Bethany and Amelia for running the behind the scenes work the day of. Bethany was so helpful from the start with our tasting and helping us decide on which drinks would go best. Everyone is so kind and wants you to have everything you want and dream of on your special day.
  
  We are speechless by how beautiful the ceremony and reception turned out. Without the Whisky Factory and their amazing staff, we would not of had truly the most perfect wedding.
  
  You cannot beat this venue. If you book with them, they are also a distillery and make all of their spirits and cocktails in house. They also have partnered with two unique and we received so many compliments from our guests that it was the best food and cocktails that they had ever had at a wedding. We couldn’t have asked for anything better in a venue and we are so beyond happy that we chose them for our most special day.

  Amazing Wedding Venue + Experience!

  We had our 6/24/23 wedding at the Whiskey Factory and it couldn't have been a better fit. From the very first inquiry, the team was responsive, informative, and helpful. We had the unique experience of planning a Michigan wedding from out of state, and they made sure we could get a virtual tour before booking as well as extended flexibility in scheduling an on site visit when our travel schedule allowed. We got married at the bar, and the lighting was incredible for our photographer to capture us during the ceremony and as we walked down the aisle as husband and wife! Whiskey Factory also offers a drink tasting which was SUCH a fun way to interact with the venue and make our wedding day unique to us. We got SO many compliments on our featured drinks. They recently started making a tequila drink, and this was a HUGE hit with our guests. We also wanted to include a mocktail option in our batch to be inclusive and respectful of all guest experiences, and Bethany worked with her team to ensure we could add this as well! This was also a huge hit with guests, highly recommend! A big thanks to the Whiskey Factory team for an unforgettable experience!

  Thank you Whiskey Factory!

  We had our wedding at the Whiskey Factory on 6/17/23 and couldn't have asked for a better venue or staff to work with. I knew the Whiskey Factory was cool but was completely blown away by how beautiful it looked on our wedding day! It was amazing to see how everything came together so perfectly. Amelia, Bethany, and everyone at the WF made planning so easy - I don't know how they do it! They are truly the sweetest people who want your day/event to be perfect and their care shines through every communication. Every step of the way was so fun - from touring the venue, to the cocktail tasting, to the actual wedding day. We got so many compliments on the beautiful and unique venue, the drinks, the food, and overall how seamlessly everything was run. I only wished it didn't go by so fast! Thank you SO much!

  Above and beyond our expectations

  Words cannot describe how INCREDIBLE of a venue The Whiskey Factory is to host an event, especially a wedding. At first glance, yes the venue is a fully functioning distillery, however, it was transformed to our dream wedding. We were truly hoping for a vintage Detroit "themed" wedding and they were the perfect place to pull it off. Not to mention, the staff is so amazing to work with. we personally worked with Amelia for our wedding and she was so kind, patient, and knew her s**t. And, of course, the drinks were TOP NOTCH!!! We've received soooo many compliments on the beverages served at our wedding! Choosing The Whiskey Factory for your wedding will not disappoint you!

  In love with Whiskey Factory!

  We absolutely LOVED having our wedding at the Whiskey Factory. We worked with both Alyssa and Caitlyn during the process, and both were so wonderful. The planning process was extremely smooth with Caitlyn being very quick to respond and clearly the expert on what works well in the space.
  
  Before the wedding, we got to do a cocktail tasting with Caitlyn (+ my parents and sister), which was SO fun. The cocktails were delicious and it was a wonderful way to get excited for the wedding in the month leading up to our big day.
  
  On the day of the wedding, I felt so taken care of by the WF staff. They mostly worked with our day-of-coordinator, but were really amazing in ensuring that the day flowed smoothly. The cocktails were delicious (even our non-cocktail-loving guests opted for the specialty cocktails instead of beer or wine) and the ambiance was wonderful. What I love most about the space is that you don't need to bring in much decor to make the venue feel warm and inviting - the beautiful hanging lights and rustic space do the work themselves!
  
  The Whiskey Factory was wonderful from start to finish (even giving us a wedding present to help us celebrate) and I highly recommend hosting your wedding here.

  No words to describe how amazing this venue is!!!!

  First off, the whole experience with this venue and their workers has been absolutely extraordinary! Alyssa the sales manager there was one of the most kind hearted, helpful people we could have ever asked for to work with. She answered all of our questions and helped tremendously along the way in the wedding process. She actually officiated our wedding as well! (We LOVE her!!) The other staff were so helpful and wonderful as well. They went above and beyond to help set up, light candles, hang things up, ect and just made us feel so comfortable and stress free.
  
  Great food by Two Unique, great atmosphere, cool guest book ideas (signing an empty barrel) AMAZING photo opportunities (shoutout to our photographer Brettina Mae), great signature cocktails, and just a beautiful day in general.
  
  The Whiskey Factory seriously could not be more perfect. If you're looking for a unique venue with great service, look no further!!

  Thank you, TWF!

  Yes, the drinks are as amazing as they sound. Yes, the venue is stunning. Yes, you and your guests will love the unique wedding experience TWF offers. But that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Our experience with TWF and their team was incredible from start to finish. After almost 2 years of planning, and helping us with everything from custom bridal party proposal gifts to setting up the small details we brought with us the day of, TWF team really brought our dream day to life. During the planning process, Alyssa and Caitlyn were always quick to respond to our emails and were happy to answer all of our questions. They sent helpful checklists as the day grew nearer to keep us on track, and Caitlyn walked us and our bridal party through the rehearsal to make sure everything was perfect for the big day. On our wedding day, Caitlyn and Madison truly exceeded our expectations in every way. They helped us set up our entryway table, seating chart, place cards, paced us down the aisle, literally carried my dress and veil as I walked up the stairs, and always kept our glasses full. They made our day effortless and memorable. Because of them, our wedding at The Whiskey Factory was a day we will never forget.

  Best Vibe in the City!

  I am a planner/coordinator and this is one of my most favorite venues ever! The vibe is so cool, the staff is so kind/attentive, and the drinks are top notch. Seriously - if you are looking for a great "experience" for your guests....BOOK HERE. You won't regret it.

  Dream Wedding Venue

  I don't even know where to begin. From the moment we went on our venue tour, my husband and I knew this was the perfect venue for us. The event team made the planning process and the day of even better. Caitlyn was our main point of contact, and from the 6 month checklist on, she was always responsive and helpful, answering questions and making our requests happen. One of our favorite parts of the planning process was our drink tasting with Caitlyn. She sent over lists and information so that we could make all of the smallest DIY details we wanted happen, like a list of all of the tasting notes for every spirit to create a menu, down to which signature drink we wanted waiting for us in our DCD rocks glasses at the head table. Lizzy helped the wedding party get to where we needed to be before the ceremony, and Caitlyn helped me by literally carrying my veil up the stairs. I almost cried when I saw the venue set up because it was done exactly how I had envisioned. Our guests absolutely loved the drinks and we received so many compliments saying this was the coolest and most unique venue they had ever been to. We could not have asked for a better place to have our dream wedding, and we will miss working with working with this team!

  Gorgeous venue with outstanding staff

  WOW--what a spectacular venue run by a spectacular team. We were nothing but impressed during our entire experience booking, planning, and finally celebrating with the Whiskey Factory. Compliments are not just from the bride and groom either---we continue to receive daily texts and calls about how "cool" and "organized" our venue was. Alyssa, Caitlyn, Brynn, Madison, Lizzy---everyone helped make our day PERFECT! This team of girls has got it together! So friendly and welcoming---no question was ever "silly". They embody the idea that us brides have been dreaming of this day our whole lives but when it comes down to it, we don't know what we're doing, ha! The team made small adjustments and accommodations to make our dream day happen. When we left behind a few framed photos, they shipped them right to us. I am already trying to figure out what event I can host with them next. A+ everything!

  Best Ever!

  Having our wedding at the Whiskey Factory was a dream come true! Of course the space is breathtaking (seriously, our guest could not stop talking about how beautiful it was) and the drinks are amazing, but the best part was the staff. Caitlyn and the rest of the team went out of their way to make it the wedding of our dreams. Their communication was spot on from the time we booked until our wedding day and beyond (18 months!). On the day of, every staff member we interacted with bent over backwards to make sure we were comfortable, help calm our nerves, and help us have the best wedding possible. I literally would not change a thing, 100/10 recommend!

  BEST EVER wedding venue!!!

  My husband and I got married at The Whiskey Factory on 6/24/22 and it was a truly magical day thanks to TWF’s team of professionals. From the moment we stepped foot in TWF over a year ago for our tour with Alyssa, we knew it was our wedding venue. Alyssa was so knowledgeable and made us feel at ease with the process from day one.
  Since then, we have worked closely with Caitlyn and Madison. Both were phenomenal with great and prompt communication, answers to all of my questions, and a TON of help on site the day of our wedding. We absolutely loved working with them.
  The craft cocktails were a big hit on our wedding day and the venue is truly one of a kind and absolutely stunning.
  This is a team of reliable and trustworthy people and you will be in the very best hands from start to finish with The Whiskey Factory – we cannot recommend it enough!!

  Best Venue Ever!

  HIGHLY recommend The WF. Their team was so amazing to work with, they were so helpful and accommodating AND responsive which is very important as a stressful bride! Alyssa and Caitlyn (and their team including Brynn and Madison) were the sweetest and I am going to miss working with them. I didn’t end up having the best experience with the day of coordinator I booked but, I still felt confident knowing the WF team was there overseeing everything and wouldn’t let anything bad happen. I know they played a huge part in how seamless and beautiful my day was. They just went above and beyond. Anytime I had a question or needed anything maybe a little out of the ordinary, they responded so quickly and did whatever they could to make it happen! Not to mention, the venue itself is gorgeous and unique. Our guests LOVED it. The bar and bartenders were incredible, you will not get a better cocktail situation at another venue. Our gusts kept raving about how rare it is to get a craft cocktail made to perfection with high end liquor at a wedding.
  If you want to have the best day ever and with beautiful pictures and the best drink experience, this is the place for you!
  TY again to the WF team!!!! We loved every minute working with you and every minute of our big day!

  Best Venue in Detroit

  We highly recommend the Whiskey Factory. Not only was the venue stunning, but the team was incredibly supportive throughout the whole process. They were quick to answer any questions we had, and were very organized with checklists to help us out along the way. Caitlyn and Brynn were a dream team and made everything run so smoothly. We absolutely recommend this venue based on our experience!

  2022 Wedding

  We couldn't have asked for a more perfect wedding at the Whiskey Factory!! Our guests absolutely loved how unique it was and the drinks of course! Caitlyn was so helpful and great to work with in the planning process and day of! I did not have a wedding coordinator and certainly did not need one with how helpful her and Madison were. They truly went above and beyond and I am so thankful for the entire Whiskey Factory team and that we decided to have our wedding there. Also their vendor list is killer - we chose almost all of our vendors from it and they were all INCREDIBLE! Best venue ever!

  Perfection!

  Every single staff member that we dealt with when it came to wedding planning was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. Caitlyn was our primary person of contact and she responded to our emails in a timely manner and day of she acted as a day of coordinator to make sure everything ran perfectly. And it did!!
  
  The venue itself is beautiful and the space is laid out perfectly for a ceremony and reception. It was exactly what we were looking for, the beautiful bar, rustic/industrial vibes, and location.

  Whiskey (but not risky) business

  We had our wedding reception at the Whiskey Factory and I would highly recommend anyone else do the same. Incredibly responsive staff who were amazingly flexible with us needing to reschedule the date twice due to Covid. The night of things couldn’t have gone better and (of course) the drinks were fantastic. I’d give more than five stars if possible.

  If you are looking for a venue that people will admire and remember than the whiskey factory is it! We had our wedding on 10/30/2021 and it was beautiful. The staff is amazing and very accommodating to every request. The night went seamlessly and the drinks were amazing. It is truly a unique venue space and I could t be happier with our decision to have our wedding here.

  Flawless!💒💍

  Wow where to even start with this venue!? The event team is absolutely incredible (I mainly worked with AJ who is a total rockstar!), the venue is STUNNING, and the drinks are to die for. My experience was flawless from start to finish and worth every single penny spent. Everyone went above and beyond and AJ worked her butt off to get my timeline together, speak to vendors, and be there with me all day and night. I do not have a single complaint. If you want a true Detroit experience, have your wedding here! You won’t regret it🥰

  COVID Minimony Miracle

  When COVID forced us to replan with a minimony... the Whiskey Factory came to the rescue.
  
  Alyssa (Event Sales Manager) was prompt when answering emails (of which there were many!) and was gracious enough to work with both myself (planning from the East Coast) and my parents to get everything set up.
  
  Caitlyn (Event Coordinator) was wonderful to have (on top of our own day of coordinator). She reached out to ensure that drinks were set up correctly, the day of... she helped with staging for photos, including making sure we got some shots on the rooftop. They made the day easy - with florals, a beautiful head table, blue tooth speaker.
  
  The venue itself is just cool - the bar is beautiful, the aesthetic of the whiskey barrels and industrial feel is unique. The premade cocktails were beyond delectable. Shout out to TwoUnique Catering for the amazing charcuterie boxes. (We took extras of both with us on our honeymoon!)
  
  This was not the wedding as we originally planned and it was perfect and we are so glad the Whiskey Factory was available on short notice.

  Incredible venue with exceptional staff

  It was an absolute dream working with this venue and their staff. Caitlyn and Alyssa were incredible from start to finish! From the moment we stepped into the venue for our tour they were thorough, enthusiastic and passionate about providing an amazing event space. The aesthetic and vibe of the venue are incredible and having amazing staff to help coordinate our dream wedding was absolute perfection. They were knowledgeable, prompt with communication and checked in with us frequently to provide us recs and see if we needed anything. They have an incredible vendor rec list they provide as well! And bonus, they are now aligned with 2 Unique for catering (seriously amazing food and service). They also provided us checklists along the way so we knew throughout the whole wedding planning process where we should be at in terms of decisions and coordination. I can’t speak enough to how wonderful it was to work with them and this venue. They exceeded our expectations and we had so many compliments for many guests in regards to the venue and supporting staff. Would highly recommend this venue for any event, it truly is a great space with even better staff.
