    Beautiful Detroit Venue

    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!

    Amazing experience!

    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!

    Beautiful Wedding Venue

    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.
