Located in Nichols Arcade, the University Flower Shop is a great source for beautiful flower arrangements. They do everything from the typical bouquets to creative centerpieces for weddings. I have even used them for 25 helium balloons for a friend’s birthday, which they thoughtfully packaged in to trash bags so I wouldn’t lose any on the walk home

This place could spell big trouble for me if I have spare time and money… One half of the store carries garden related merchandise. Everything from flower and plants to benches and rakes. Everything is top-quality. On the other half, you will find tons of kitchen and home gadgets, including picnic baskets, copper pots and even fresh baked Zingerman’s bread.

Don’t let the name fool you- this place is fun for adults and children alike. I know plenty of 20-somethings that head here for a first date. They place is filled with typical fun, learning exhibits. You can make it though in half an hour or spend half a day there. But however long you stay, you are guaranteed to have fun!

Falling Water has a New Age feel to it the second you walk in. As the name suggests, they do carry table top fountains, but also a variety of books, cards and gifts. The calming effect of the music and fountains definitely makes the shopping experience better (and probably has the added benefit of making you stay longer and buy more).

Whoever came up with the idea of serving alcohol at a movie theater is a genius. And to make things even better the theater has high quality seating, sound and video. Both the ticket and food prices are comparable to other theaters. And for those people that watch a lot of movies, the Shooter’s Club, which gives paying members shorter concession lines, real butter and special seating (with larger seats), is worth looking into!

Michigan Book and Supplies’ Art store is a great resource for any amateur (and maybe professional, but since I’m not one, I won’t speculate) artist. They care some top of the line supplies, and I have found their prices are often cheaper than other area art supply stores… and definitely cheaper than the craft chain stores.

Best place for fruit and veggies in Detroit Metro. I love this place. You can buy a cart fully of food (including strawberries, blueberries, pineapple, when in season) and spend next to nothing. It costs about a third of what you would wind up paying at a regular grocery.
To top it off, they generally have great prices on fresh cut flowers and carry landscaping plants during the warm months!

For my husband’s (then boyfriend) birthday, our group of friends decided to rent a limo for a Saturday night and do a pub crawl in Royal Oak. We booked Razz limo, and it was nothing but trouble.
First, the limo driver was over an hour late because she didn’t get directions to our place (and despite having a friend of ours in the back, since she was at a wedding close to their dispatch center). Second, even though we had told the company of our plans to drive from club to club in Royal Oak and need for a driver than new the way around, she didn’t have a clue about the area. We wound up giving directions all night. And to top it off, she had the nerve to ask for the tip up front.
Maybe we just had bad luck with the driver, but it was more trouble than it was worth.

I used Heidi’s for my wedding day hair, which turned out better than I could have hoped. It held up so well, despite my never leaving the dance floor all evening. My mother and three bridesmaids also used Heidi’s for updos and blowouts, and they all had the same long-lasting, great look.
I did initially book them for my make-up, but after the trial, which left me layered in make-up, I decided against that. But for someone that typically wears more make-up (I rarely use any foundation), it might be for you.

Year after year, I keep returning to Caravan Gifts for their unique cards and Christmas ornaments. They also carry a line of reproduced, old-fashioned tin toys that are a favorite of my dad’s. If you don’t know what to get someone, this would be the place to check out for something creative.
