A Night to Remember: My Ready to Love Detroit Premiere Party Recap
What. A. Night! The Ready to Love Detroit Season 11 premiere celebration was everything I imagined, and then some. As one of the cast members on this season, I wanted the night to reflect the beauty, culture, and energy of Detroit, and we absolutely delivered!
Hosted at ORA, one of Detroit’s most stylish nightclubs, the event was pure magic from start to finish. The red carpet was glowing with lights and cameras as media and interviewers captured every moment. Guests arrived dressed to impress, ready to toast to love, success, and Detroit excellence.


Inside, the entertainment was next level! Fire dancers turned up the heat, feather dancers floated through the crowd, and strolling hors d’oeuvres kept everyone satisfied between sips of endless champagne. Our gorgeous cake was the centerpiece of the night, surrounded by laughter, cameras, and so much joy.
A huge shoutout to our amazing sponsors, who helped make the night as stunning and memorable as it was. Every detail was perfection.
And when the official party wrapped, the afterparty kept the energy going strong! Bottles were flowing, the DJ had the dance floor packed, and everybody was having a good ol’ Detroit ghetto time.. you know, that signature mix of real fun and real class. We laughed, danced, and celebrated the way only Detroit can.
It was a night of love, laughter, and legacy; one for the books. Tune in to Ready to Love Detroit on OWN TV Fridays at 9PM—because this season, Detroit is showing the world how we do love, our way.
