Colony Club

Great place for wedding! The food & drinks were great! A great old venue with beautiful details. Parking could be rough, but we stayed nearby and rode a shuttle provided by the bride & groom.

I love the building, but was not pleased with the lack of parking.
The food is good, but I felt there was a bit of an unfriendly, snide and uppity atmosphere with some of the employees.
*There were some employees there that seemed VERY friendly; I just happened to have gotten someone that bordered on rude and snotty. I had gone there for a reception, so it was interesting for a one-​time experience. Don’t feel like I’d need to go back there again.

What an amazing venue! It is absolutely stunning. You practically party on all floors. Best way to have wedding. The balcony over looking the party is a huge plus. Food and service was outstanding. The details in the walls and ceilings were out of this world.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about the Colony Club. First off it’s BEAUTIFUL like in a Romeo and Juliet way! Just Gorgeous! and Second we had the best experience working with Banquet Manager Bertha. How someone can be fun, organized and calm at the same time is beyond me but she does it all. She took care of every need we had and made us smile through out it all. Bertha made us feel like we were the best people she ever dealt with and we definitely felt that way about her!
The parking was at the Fox Parking lot which was not as simple because you need to go around to get back to your car. But EVERYTHING else was fantastic. The food was excellent and hot. The appetizers were also delicious and served in a separate area which was lovely. Do yourself a favor and check this place out. We could not have been happier!

The food might be okay, but everything we ordered they were out of and the food took forever to arrive even though the place was nearly empty. Our waitress messed up our order and then did not compensate the bill appropriately. The cost was double what we expected to pay, the service was slow and the food was not available at a lunchtime hour. Stay away!

We had our wedding at The Colony Club! The ballroom is 2 stories with a mezzanine that is amazing! The original architecture has not been touched other than to be restored! This historical building dates back to the 1920’s where one of the original woman’s social club existed! The food is amazing, the service is beyond anyones expectations, and if you think you may want to have your wedding here, you may want to reserve ahead because they are booked atleast one year out. We were extremely pleased with them and would highly recommend it to anyone and everyone looking to have an event from 100 — 300 people. The ladies who run the show the day of your event Bertha & Judy are exceptional ladies. Thank you to everyone at The Colony Club! You gave us the most amazing memories!

We came here for a friends wedding. They do not have parking though and we had to park in the structure around the corner we should not make me feel very safe for downtown Detroit at night. However the venue is absolutely incredible. You could hear the music great and it was perfect for a wedding set up. We even had appetizers in a different room before moving into the main venue. I remember that the food was pretty good. Hope we get invited to another wedding so we have the chance to come back.

I hear it’s thee new SPOT for Yuppie’s to tie the knot in Detroit.
The buidling was beautiful. Very old (obviously)
I was there to witness the nuptuials of an amazing couple of UofM Law school grads.
The service was excellent. A woman named Tracy was assigned to the tables in our general area, and she was the most gracious person. The smile never left her face, even if she thought she might be out of view from anyone else, a smile was still present. I did mention it to the manager that evening as well.
The food wasn’t bad. I think it was mostly because I didn’t exactly like the style chicken and beef that was served.
The only thing that sucked was the temperature in the entire building.
I get that it’s old, and that it’s summer… and muggy, but damn was it HOT in that place! We even asked about it and they said they had the air down to 55, but that because it was an old building it was hard to regulate… What evs. Then why were the windows on the ground floor open? Get that shit under control. Another guest that was seated next to me made the comment that «Basically everyone at the wedding looked sweaty» and we did…
All in all, not a bad venue. It was decorated beautifully, but I never know if that’s to the credit of the establishment, or the wedding party.

The only word to describe the Colony Club is to use my favorite urban term; ‘THAT’S WATS UP!’. I experienced the best venue Detroit (or any other city for that matter) has to offer. Yes I said any other city; Chicago, New York, D.C., L.A., who ever! I partied at the multi-​story Colony Club on August 23. I was there on official business. To raise money for the Charles H. Wright Museum. Raise money and kick it? Doesn’t get any better. They offer valet, spacious lounge areas, clean restrooms, huge dance floors and the best staff in the business. If you ever have the opportunity to attend an event at the Colony Club I suggest you do. This venue is usually occupied for ticketed events. It is so worth the experience no matter the cost.
