Grey Day at Greystone Didn’t Effect this Happy Day!

T’was a rather cool day for September, but nothing could stop this couple from having their dream wedding outside.  The wind was blowing and the breeze was less than tropical, however, the bride was beaming as she and her new hubby were pronounced newly married.  There was a run by the guests as soon as the couple made their way back down the aisle for warmth and shelter. Despite it all, they got their dream wedding rain or shine!

Big Wedding – Texas Style!

This lovely couple live in Texas, but most of their family live in Lapeer County, so they decided to get married in their home town of Almont.  The First Congregational Church graciously allowed us to use  their gorgeous historical church for this wedding. Long distance planning was not a problem as we communicated often.  This picture is one shot out of a second story stained glass window while the newlyweds were being greeted by their guests with a bubble blast.

Stone Chapel Wedding

Sometimes pictures just tell the story . . . this couple decided to exchange their vows in a very small, intimate stone chapel that has been around for a very long time.  No electricity–just the simple beauty of natural light filtering through the stain glass windows.  Breathtaking!

Torrential Rain and Tornado Warnings Didn’t Stop Us!

Wonderful Weekend of Weddings!

Every once in a while, it just all comes together to be able to help several couples have their dream weddings all on the same weekend . . . so, here are FOUR that just were perfectly orchestrated time wise to all work out.  There was a few tense moments when we encountered a detour, but God worked it out. Each one was as beautiful as the one before and we were so blessed that these couples chose us to share their wedding day with us!  Congratulations!!!!!!!

Wedding in the Woods

Last weekend, we arrive at our destination for a home wedding.  It was to be in the gazebo–we didn’t see one anywhere?? The beautiful young bride told us that it was in the woods about an eighth of a mile behind the house.  This is going to be interesting, we thought.  We took the trek out and were awestruck!  This location was incredible.  Even the bugs stayed away while this wonderful couple took their vows in this unforgettable place.  Again, we are so blessed to be used by God for such an occassion as this. 

Congratulations!

The Long and Winding Road . . .

that leads to the wedding . . .

For those of you who have had a chance to visit the relatively new George George Park, you know that it has this beautiful pavillion for wedding ceremonies.  However, it is a rather long walk for the bride when she is making her grand entrance from the parking lot. We witnessed the bride exit the limo and the porocessional began . . . and ended . . .  but, where is the bride?  There is a section where the trees and fountain hide the path–that’s where our bride was making some necessary adjustments to continue her walk down the aisle!  A few curious moments passed, but Rev. assured everyone, there was a bride on the way–and as you can see, she made her meeting with her groom!  Congratulations, you two, and much happiness!!!

It’s A Small World After All!

We are always amazed at life connections and how interesting we find them out!  We were at this lovely couple’s wedding.  The bride is thanking all the guests during the toasting of the happy newlyweds and we hear that they met at one of our favorite restaurants that they both worked at.  Our ears perked up as we know of another bride and close friend that had also worked there in the past. Sure enough–they had worked together for years and our friend had watched the two of the fall in love while working there!  We hope these two spend many a romantic dinner at the place where it all began. 

Best wishes and have a wonderful life as husband and wife.

Antique and White Lace

What a beautiful May day for a small country chapel wedding! Even though it is on the grounds of a golf course, it seems like a century back in time when you open the huge doors into the bell tower foyer.  The pews and arch windows made it even more elegant. On the platform is a fasinating wooden altar and lecturn fine crafted a long time ago.  This great couple had such a perfect archway of bubbles as they re-entered the chapel for pictures and the attending children were in awe with grown ups blowing bubbles with them!

Future preachers?  Very cute picture, huh?

Congratulations to this lovely couple and may the future be as bright as the day they said I do ~ 

East Meets West

  It isn’t too often we get to do a church wedding, but this gorgeous sanctuary 

 was opened to us for the marriage of two different cultures and denominations.  Despite the differences, this couple blended perfectly together.    It was awesome to see the interaction of the many guests becoming one family with shaking of hands, hugs and smiles all around after the ceremony.

  A bright future and blessings to these newlyweds.
