As mentioned, this was all about the “Maize and Blue”, the official school colors of the University of Michigan. The theme was pretty evident as soon as guests walked in with the giant “Miles’ Madhouse” photo backdrop inside the lobby of Club Infinity.

It carried through to just about everything you could see or touch, from the centerpieces, complete with enclosed football, the wonderful Miles’ Madhouse logo, by Split Second Wish, and even the blue glass votives.

Lounge pillows were on display throughout the space, with multiple logos on them.
