Ciara + Dominic

Gem Theater Wedding 

A HIDDEN GEM IN THE CITY

Love was in the air at the historic Gem Theater as Ciara & Dominic celebrated their romantic wedding surrounded by friends, family, and a touch of Detroit spirit. This wasn’t just any wedding—it was a heartfelt nod to their shared love story and mutual devotion to the Detroit Lions.

The Gem Theater, with its rich architecture and timeless charm, set the perfect stage for their vows. With soft candlelight illuminating the venue and floral arrangements complementing the warm, vintage ambiance, every detail was carefully curated to create an atmosphere of intimacy and elegance.

But the magic didn’t stop there. Just outside the venue, Ford Field, home of the Detroit Lions, stood as a proud and iconic backdrop. By the end of the night, it was clear this wasn’t just a wedding; it was a celebration of love, resilience, and shared passions.

Kai is the best! She was our photographer for our engagement and wedding photos. She was passionate about bringing our vision to life! We highly recommend Kai as a photographer and hope to work with her again in the future.

 I may be a bit biased but I think Kai is the best Detroit wedding photographer! This woman knows her stuff. She has such a fun and bubbly personality which made the wedding photography process so enjoyable. She truly is an artist and is an expert at her craft. As well, she is extremely professional and came prepared to our wedding with a Pinterest board for inspiration on possible poses we could recreate. I am so incredibly glad we chose Kai and I would recommend to EVERY future bride. 

“Best Detroit Photographer."

“We loved our photos. 
Kai was SUCH a pleasure. She was highly responsive, efficient, and on the day of our wedding, arrived early to get the day started. Our entire bridal party kept complimenting how kind and easy she was to work with, and with a rainy/overcast wedding day, Kai was still sure to capture beautiful moments. We loved our final product received. Would recommend KDP for your special day!
