Here at The Big Fake Wedding, we’re always big proponents for breaking the rules. So who says you can’t base your wedding off your first date experience of sharing a cheeseburger at the local diner? At our first-ever Detroit event, we challenged our vendors to throw it back to the era of Happy Days and it gave us all the nostalgic feels! If you’re the type of bride that would rather listen to jukebox tunes than classical music and would choose In-And-Out over fine dining, then this retro-meets-modern wedding inspo is for you! See all the details in today’s event highlight!
As Seen On Wedding Chicks

A huge thanks to our talented team of vendors!
