“You must plant positive seeds, wherever possible, to grow.” This advice was given to me years ago from a close mentor of mine. Whether it’s an initial client meeting, choosing where to spend our marketing dollars, or hosting vendor networking gatherings, we plant positive seeds that will grow and produce extraordinary outcomes.
Our 25th edition of Plan It Magazine has expanded three-fold, and we have grown right along with it. Earlier this year we announced the creation of our sister company, Twelve24 Events. This new family “member” is solely dedicated to planning full-scale celebrations and corporate gatherings, both locally and nationally. While we have been full-service planning for a decade, it was time to give this segment of our business it's own name. With this magazine in hand, we meet with clients and show them what is available in DETROIT! We are proud to showcase our advertisers as a part of the magazine’s content, providing trusted referrals and advice for all our readers.
Our incredible state of Michigan has hosted several large, newsworthy events and happenings this year. This is just the beginning – Detroit is positioned to become a topticket destination for corporate and national events and attendees. Flip through our pages and you will see our feature of large event spaces that are equipped to handle large-scale gatherings of all types.
Floral and décor always provide a visual buzz at an event. Special thanks to Kevin Miller, from Stem Event Design, for sharing his knowledge and expertise on floral elements that are not to be missed this year.
We have also put pen to paper for you and outlined what goes into creating an event budget. Feel free to use our categories as your guide and see what goes into planning a complete event, from beginning to end.
We hope you love this edition as much as we do. Enjoy highlights of local events, content filled with information from years of experience and knowledge, and local advertisers that you can trust and rely upon.
My team is special. Our service is top-notch. We are here for you!

floral design
s weddings continue to evolve with each passing year, so do the trends in floral arrangements and design. In 2024, we are seeing a delightful blend of timeless elegance and innovative creativity in wedding florals. One of the standout trends is the resurgence of classic romance, where lush, garden-inspired arrangements take center stage. Think cascading bouquets filled with peonies, garden roses, and trailing greenery, exuding a sense of natural beauty and grace. These arrangements are perfect for couples seeking a timeless and romantic ambiance for their special day.
In contrast to classic romance, minimalist and modern aesthetics are also making waves in 2024. Clean lines, simplicity, and a focus on singular blooms or monochromatic color schemes are defining this trend. Brides are opting for chic bouquets featuring statement flowers like orchids or calla lilies, paired with sleek foliage or even incorporating unconventional elements like dried flowers for a contemporary twist. This trend appeals to couples aiming for a sophisticated and understated elegance that speaks volumes with its simplicity.
Furthermore, sustainability and eco-consciousness continue to influence wedding floral choices in 2024. Many couples are opting for locally sourced flowers and greenery, reducing carbon footprints and supporting local growers. Additionally, there's a rising interest in using potted plants or succulents as wedding decor, which not only add a natural touch but can also serve as memorable favors for guests to take home.
floral trends
offer a diverse array of options, catering to couples with varying tastes and preferences. We asked Kevin Miller, owner of STEM EVENT DESIGN, to share his current favorite floral compositions, ideas, and inspirations.
color
Vibrant color palettes have been a huge hit throughout the event industry.
repetition
Florals cascading down long tables is simple, but the consistency is what makes the biggest impact.
natural elements
Wood, stone, and other natural materials are used for vessels and platforms.
statement pieces
Large features like hanging installations, bar pieces, entrance florals, and ceiling treatments over the dance floor make a huge impact.
monochromatic colors
Incorporate monochromatic color schemes, such as shades of cream to a vibrant yellow.
unique touches
Mixing in unique elements like fruits and vegetables add both texture and color to any floral arrangement.
perennials
Grasses, hydrangea, and delphinium plants can be mixed in to aisle ceremony pieces, entrances, and reception areas. Garden style florals including ranunculus, anemone, garden roses, sweet pea, and peonies.
personal touches
We love bringing personal elements to the design - whether it's beloved pets, hobbies, or memories… anything unique.
A Modern Love Story
SOMETHING OLD, SOMETHING NEW
eddings, steeped in tradition and ritual, have long been a cornerstone of cultures worldwide. Yet, as society evolves, so do the customs and ceremonies surrounding the union of two individuals. Leave it to the younger folk to shake things up. Millennials and Generation Z have broken the mold. Today’s couples are infusing their ceremonies and celebrations with modern and personal touches, while honing many timeless rituals.
BREAKING GENDER NORMS
In today's evolving landscape of relationships, couples are redefining traditional roles and responsibilities to align with their personal values and beliefs in equality and partnership. The traditional ways of doing things have been left in the past when it comes to celebrating the new couples’ strengths and values throughout the celebration.
ADDING A PERSONAL TOUCH
Personalized wedding ceremonies are becoming increasingly popular as couples seek to make their special day uniquely their own. Many are incorporating elements that reflect their individual personalities, cultures, and shared experiences. For example, some couples choose to write their own vows, infusing their promises with personal anecdotes and heartfelt commitments. These personalized touches not only make the ceremony memorable but also deeply resonate with the couple and their loved ones, celebrating their unique journey together.
INFUSING TECHNOLOGY
Incorporating technology into weddings has revolutionized how couples celebrate their big day, making the experience more interactive and memorable for guests. Many modern weddings feature live streaming services, allowing friends and family who cannot attend in person to participate virtually. Couples are also incorporating drones to capture breathtaking aerial footage, providing unique perspectives of their special day. Interactive lighting, LED walls, spot lighting, and up lighting all create a modern feel to the aesthetic of the room, immersing guests in a new and unique experience. Interactive photo booths with props and instant text and print capabilities add a fun twist to traditional photography. Additionally, some receptions feature personalized wedding apps where guests can access the event schedule, maps, and even share photos and messages in real-time. These technological innovations not only enhance the wedding experience but also create lasting memories that can be easily shared and revisited.

NON-TRADITIONAL VENUES
Modern couples are increasingly choosing non-traditional venues for their weddings, seeking locations that reflect their unique personalities and love stories. These settings range from rustic barns and charming vineyards to art galleries and industrial lofts. Some couples opt for outdoor venues like botanical gardens or beaches, embracing the natural beauty as a backdrop for their vows. Urban rooftops and historic libraries also offer a blend of modern and classic elements, creating a one-of-a-kind atmosphere.
EVENT DESIGN WITH A TWIST
Personalized wedding design details are gaining popularity as couples look to break away from conventional norms and create a celebration that truly reflects their style. For example, the use of bold, unconventional color palettes, such as deep jewel tones or vibrant, eclectic combinations bring a unique flair to the decor. Floral arrangements are also seeing a twist, with wild, unstructured bouquets and centerpieces featuring unexpected elements like succulents, pampas grass, and even fruits. Another trend is incorporating on-site artists, custom illustrations, handwritten signage, and wedding favors that tell the couple's story. Additionally, the use of unique and modern furniture pieces add a pop of color and allow guests a place to be comfortable throughout the event.
The evolution of wedding traditions reflects the changing values and priorities of couples in the modern era. By blending timeless customs with contemporary twists, couples are creating weddings that are not only beautiful and memorable but also meaningful and reflective of their unique love stories.

WHILE
AI UNDOUBTEDLY TRANSFORMS THE LANDSCAPE OF EVENT PLANNING,
ITS TRUE POWER LIES IN ITS ABILITY TO COMPLEMENT AND ENHANCE THE SKILLS OF HUMAN PROFESSIONALS.
BREAKING BOUNDARIES THE IMPACT OF AI ON MODERN EVENT DESIGN
by Jacquelyn Dorris EventManager
In the fast-evolving landscape of event planning, where seamless execution and memorable experiences are paramount, Artificial Intelligence (AI) emerges not as a replacement for human expertise, but as a powerful ally. While traditional methods rely heavily on manual processes, AI introduces a new dimension of efficiency, creativity, and precision, transforming the industry without diminishing the role of event planners themselves.
STREAMLINING LOGISTICS
Tasks such as venue selection, scheduling, and budget management can be arduous and time-consuming for event planners. AI-powered tools can analyze data to suggest optimal venues based on capacity, location, and cost. This allows planners to make informed decisions more quickly, focusing their energy on refining the event experience rather than administrative details.
CREATIVE INSPIRATION
Creativity lies at the heart of compelling event design, and AI is proving to be an inspiring collaborator. AI algorithms can analyze social media trends, cultural influences, and even aesthetic preferences to offer fresh ideas for themes, decorations, and entertainment options. AI empowers event planners to push boundaries and deliver truly innovative one-of-akind experiences that captivate guests.
EMPOWERING EVENT PLANNERS
AI does not seek to replace the role of event planners but rather amplify their capabilities. By automating routine tasks, AI liberates planners to focus on strategic decision-making and creative direction, while enhancing the human touch that makes events most memorable. This partnership between AI and human expertise represents the future of event planning—a harmonious blend of innovation and experience that promises to elevate the industry to new heights.
While AI undoubtedly transforms the landscape of event planning, its true power lies in its ability to complement and enhance the skills of human professionals. By leveraging AI’s capabilities, event planners can not only achieve greater efficiency and effectiveness but also deliver more immersive and impactful experiences for guests. As the industry continues to evolve, embracing AI as a collaborative tool will be essential for those seeking to lead the charge in creating unforgettable events that resonate long after the last guest has departed.
