Some love stories don’t need a rewrite — they deserve a beautiful continuation.

This couple returned to Roostertail, Detroit, the very place where they said “I do” twenty years earlier, to celebrate their 20th wedding anniversary. What made this event especially meaningful wasn’t its size, but its intention. It was a small, intimate celebration filled with history, heart, and thoughtful design, proof that milestones deserve just as much care as wedding days.

A Full-Circle Moment at Roostertail Detroit

Roostertail has long been a Detroit icon, perched along the Detroit River with sweeping views and timeless charm. For this couple, it wasn’t just a venue, it was a memory. Returning two decades later added layers of meaning, making every design choice feel personal and purposeful.

Stationery That Honors the Past, Designed for the Present

The celebration began with custom stationery, designed to reflect both elegance and legacy. A venue illustration of Roostertail Detroit was printed in rose gold foil on black cardstock, creating a striking contrast that felt modern yet sentimental. The foil detailing caught the light beautifully, a quiet nod to celebration, commitment, and longevity.

Matching rose gold menu cards tied the paper goods seamlessly into the tablescape, reinforcing the idea that stationery isn’t just a detail — it’s part of the experience.

Bold Florals for a Timeless Celebration

For the florals, the design leaned into richness and depth. Against black linens, elevated floral arrangements featured shades ranging from soft pink and hot pink to deep burgundy, creating drama, romance, and visual impact.

The elevated designs added height and presence while keeping the atmosphere intimate, a perfect balance for an anniversary celebration that felt luxurious without feeling overdone. Every bloom played its role, echoing the warmth and vibrancy of a love that has only grown stronger over time.

Designed, Not Just Decorated

By booking both floral design and custom stationery, the couple ensured their celebration felt cohesive from start to finish. From paper to petals, every detail told the same story — one of continuity, intention, and enduring love.
