What people love about us
“My high school class just had their 30th reunion at the Roostertail and I cannot say enough wonderful things about the night. The decor was outstanding, the food top notch, and the views out of this world. They managed to out-do our prom.”
Danielle DeLuca-Pytell, Reunion Committee
“We celebrated our 50th Wedding Anniversary in the Club Room. We spoke with Shawna and told her our story. She embraced us, our family, and designed an evening we will never forget. Six children, 20 grandchildren, and 2 great grandchildren treated to an elegant atmosphere.”
Linda Pittiglio
“Working with Nicole and Shawna on our Cass Tech 50th high school reunion was absolutely wonderful. They have fantastic attention to detail. Our reunion gala will be talked about for years to come because the Roostertail delivered.”
