Plenty of room for the projected number of guests many of whom did not attend. Tables decorated very beautifully with candle and flower centerpieces. Hot coffee, tea, and soft drinks available as guests walked in. Simple assortment of veggies for appetizers. Nothing fancy. Main course was a mixed green salad, pasta with a vodka sauce, green beans, lemon chicken, mixed roasted potatoes, roast beef and mushrooms in gravy, and bread. EVERY SINGLE THING WAS DELISH. Nothing over the top here. Plain and simply the best banquet food I have had in many years. Chicken and beef were tender and juicy. Pasta was hot and the sauce had a little kick to it. Beans and taters were not overcooked and mushy. The bread...oh the bread. Nice solid crust with a moist fluffy inside. And the servers were very polite and and keeping up on refills and clearing dishes. Ended up sitting with the husband of the deceased and he said this was exactly what his wife had wanted for her funeral luncheon. He could not have been happier. Hats off to Laurel Manor.

What a wonderful place for a black tie optional wedding. Just off the riverwalk with views of the…read moreDetroit River and Canada. Industrial downstairs and elegant upstairs. The wedding was on the 1st floor and a place that a bagpiper would not seem out of place or the men in kilts. If you have other ideas about your wedding, it will work. The meal was upstairs had the the correct number of servers that the last table didn't have to wait 20 minutes for theirs after the first table was served. Having some back ground in this, you have to know what you are doing or something with trip you up every time. They didn't. The food was close to a well reviewed 5 star restaurant. My steak warmed up just as good as it was there. The salad didn't have enough dressing, but still good. Cake and dancing was back downstairs. Open bar was setup in both places. I Know $$$$ was spent but it showed. I hope another friend gets married there to just have a chance to go back.

The Jam Handy is a fascinating venue where Nate and I attended a wedding recently. Located kind of…read morein what felt like the middle of nowhere, there's not a lot of parking nearby but street parking is available and you may have to walk a bit. There is a small parking lot at the Jam Handy, but we weren't really sure if we could park there, even for the rehearsal the day before the wedding. The space is historic and you can read about it online, but it served as a sound stage for the Jam Handy Organization, which specialized in industrial films and filmstrips for General Motors and the United States Armed Forces. The venue itself is a bit rustic and industrial, and serves as a blank canvas for whatever vision you have for your event. In this case, it was a wedding with lots of beautiful flowers and floral arrangements and green plants everywhere. The bar when you entered was a great touch, and guests were able to have a glass of wine before moving to the ceremony room, which had a floral backdrop. This space was turned into the late night dance party area as well. There isn't much around this venue, so don't plan on a lot of bar hopping nearby before your event. In fact, most of the bars didn't open until 5 pm on Friday, the day of the wedding. The only other downfall of the venue was having to go downstairs to use the restroom. There is one gender neutral restroom on the main floor but it was occupied 99% of the time I tried the door. Just something to note for people with mobility issues, high heels, etc. I also noticed some uneven areas in the floors. Overall I had a great time at this venue and was impressed with how it was transformed from the rehearsal time to the wedding itself! Sometimes I think spots like this are a little too much of a blank space for someone like me, who lacks creative vision to turn a place like this into something really beautiful. However, with the right team and vision, it can be exceptional!

I came here for Yelp's Nauti by Nature party and had SO much fun. This space was perfect to host it, with grand balconies, an amazing view, and interesting spaces. This boat house has been flooded multiple times, and they're currently working on restoring it, room by room. Our event was a fundraiser for the building, in an effort to return it to its previous grandeur. Currently, it's still beautiful and majestic, just dated and in need of some repairs. Such a cool, unique spot for an event!
