Windsor has quietly become a favourite for Detroit-area couples, especially South Asian families with relatives on both sides of the river. Great venues, beautiful riverfront views and the best angle on the Detroit skyline make it an easy choice. Here’s what to know when planning wedding photography in Windsor from across the border.

Why couples choose Windsor

• Skyline views. The best photos of the Detroit skyline are taken from the Windsor side
• Venue variety, from banquet halls and heritage manors to riverfront clubs
• Family on both sides. Many families have relatives in Windsor-Essex and Metro Detroit

Skyline portrait spots

• Dieppe Gardens: a classic, wide view of downtown Detroit
• Riverfront Trail: walkable stretches with plenty of variety
• Coventry Gardens: riverside gardens with water views
• Near the Ambassador Bridge: dramatic, industrial-meets-elegant backdrops

Sunset and blue hour, when the skyline lights up, give the most dramatic results.

Plan for the border

• Make sure every guest has a valid passport or approved travel document
• Build buffer time for border wait times, especially for bridal parties and family coming the morning of
• Ask your venue about guests arriving from the U.S. and parking
