    The Eastern is a wonderful industrial, versatile venue in the heart of Eastern Market in downtown Detroit! This venue comes as a blank slate. So many different options as to how you can dress this venue up for a wedding/event. Be sure to use the few large wooden tables it comes with for your buffet table, hors d’oeuvre table, seating outdoors, head-table etc. Look no further than The Eastern or The Norwood for your wedding! I would recommend this venue to any couple looking to have a wedding in a unique spot, rather than a ballroom.

  • Great Staff! Beautiful Space.

    The Eastern is a striking modern venue that blends contemporary design with unique architectural features, making it an ideal setting for a variety of events. The open floor plan provides a spacious and flexible environment, allowing you to customize the space to fit your event’s needs. One of the standout elements is the stunning 3-D greenery wall, which adds a touch of nature and sophistication to the venue, creating a vibrant backdrop for photos or a focal point for your gathering. The venue also boasts unique brick walls that lend a raw, urban feel to the space, balancing a modern design with industrial charm, in one of Detroit’s most historical areas. For a summer event, the garage-like doors are perfect—they open up to invite the fresh air and natural light, creating an indoor-outdoor flow that enhances the space. This feature, paired with the freestanding bar area, makes The Eastern a particularly great choice for warm-weather events, allowing guests to mingle and enjoy drinks in a relaxed, open environment. Overall, The Eastern offers a chic, dynamic space with a variety of architectural elements that will impress guests and provide a memorable backdrop for any occasion. Whether you're hosting a wedding, corporate event, or celebration, the venue's flexibility and stylish features make it a standout choice for any event planner.
