the view
The waterfront difference

The view does the talking.

Right on the Detroit River behind Wyandotte Hospital, Silver Shores opens to wide water — the sun comes up over the river, freighters slide past all afternoon, and the far shore turns to lights while the dancing goes on.

  • Open-water ceremonies at the river’s edge
  • A true outdoor pavilion reception — not just a ceremony
  • Your own private shore on the Detroit River
