Michigan-Detroit

Say "I do" in maize and blue.........from today's paper........

Michigan athletic director Dave Brandon sees your special day in a very special maize and blue way. "We have fans and alums who would love to get married on the Block M," Brandon said of the famous logo at the 50-yard line of Michigan Stadium.

"Can't you see the wedding procession coming out of the tunnel, under the M Go Blue banner? You have folding chairs set up on the field, you get married on the Block M, and everyone comes up the tunnel, then up the elevators, and you've got all these spaces up here (in the suites). You could have a reception for hundreds of people up here."

Brandon plans to hire an individual who will market Michigan Stadium weddings and parties. That person will set the price for the special events

    Ditto Spartans rule and I am so glad that is not an option or else I could have a problem on my hands!

    ditto with emartson and the FI trying to turn the wedding into a tailgate/frat party!  I would be afraid to even ask what the cost of having your wedding at the big house is though!  I couldn't even get a straight answer from the ticket office when I asked what the cost of season football tickets were!
