Some wedding venues just have a feel—and the Gem Theatre in Detroit is one of those places. It’s historic, full of character, and made the perfect backdrop for Sarah and Tom’s September wedding.
The day started downtown at the Shinola Hotel, where Sarah leaned into the art deco style with Old Hollywood glam. Getting ready with her closest friends and her mom made those morning hours feel extra personal and set the tone for the whole day.
Meanwhile, Tom and his crew got ready at the Gem itself. The couple chose to do a first look before the ceremony, and then tied the knot on the 4th floor in the Century Theatre, an intimate spot inside the Gem.
Cocktail hour flowed outside, where Sarah and Tom made time to greet their guests before heading back in for the reception. The rest of the night was packed with laughter, dancing, and that kind of easy joy that feels unforgettable.
The Gem Theatre has a way of holding stories, and now Sarah and Tom’s wedding is a part of that history—a celebration filled with love, connection, and all the moments that make a wedding day so real.
