Katie looked like a Hawaiian princess! (She's definitely giving Malibu Barbie a run for her money...or should I say, a run for her pink plastic porsche.)

The ceremony was moved inside at the last minute due to the weather. But the clouds parted during the reception just long enough for us to step outside and get some fun photos.

What a laid back wedding. We stopped at Aquinas college for an intimate mini photo session with the bride and groom. The food was catered from Marie Catrib's a yummy restaurant in Grand Rapids (East Hills Area) which boasts an eclectic menu and takes pride in using local foods. Marie herself was there serving chicken salad (which was awesome!) and sandwiches made on her scrumptious homemade breads. What a fun day! So glad we could be part of it! Check out Marie Catribs.

The day was sweltering hot...but Teresa still looked absolutely amazing. On her feet are the cutest pair of red pumps, as Tyra would say, they are "Fierce." Addison Oaks, hosted the ceremony & reception. The highlight of the night was when the bride led the bridesmaids in a dance to Beyonce's song "Put a Ring on It." Their rendition was good but nothing can hold a candle to Justin Timberlake & Andy Sandberg's version of the song (from SNL) check it out on You Tube, it's hilarious!

It was a windy day along the lakeshore, but we made the most of it!

We spent the weekend in Alpena for this wedding, located on the northeast side of the state. The wedding venue is a bit of a secret, hidden at the end of a dirt road, called Agape on the Bay (A large, pale yellow and awfully cozy home fully equipped for wedding ceremonies and receptions.) It may not be very well known, but it is absolutely charming! Guests road in on a horse drawn carriage and the ceremony was directly overlooking the bay. Jamie's bouquet was gorgeous! Filled with bright colored orchids, purple roses and peacock feathers matching the boutonnières. The centerpieces were simple bowls of green apples that matched the wedding colors. We were so glad to be part of your wedding! Thanks.

These two were married at First United Methodist Church. They rode by trolley into the heart of Grand Rapids for their reception at San Chez Tapas Bistro. Their guests dinned on traditional Spanish tapas while overlooking the city. A treasure chest and postcards filled a table where guests could choose their favorite postcard and fill out their address to give to the bride & groom. Kristin's lovely bouquet was strewn with orchids and gardenias. On the bottom of her shoes were the initials 'J.P.' to give props to her new hubby. Thanks for letting us be part of your special day!
