Stephanie and Tyler 8-24-13

Stephanie and Tyler are by far the most laid back, chill bride and groom ever! They were so much fun to work with : ) Their wedding defiantly represented their personalities
 
The ceremony was at Frog Island Park . It was a gorgeous day for an outside ceremony! But…it was really windy and because of the wind the backdrop kept falling over! In the 6ish years that I have been doing this there has only been a handful of times when I’ve thought “I’m not sure this is going to come together”. After pieces of the backdrop kept breaking and falling apart I knew guests were going to start to arrive soon so we had to do something fast. I wasn’t going to let Stephanie walk down the aisle thinking “Where the heck is my backdrop?!?!” So after some modifications to the original design we made it work : ) Thank goodness!
 The ceremony:
 Who knew something so simple looking could be such a pain, lol.

The reception was jsut around the corner from the ceremony in downtown Ypsilanti  at Bona Sera Café. Dinner was inside and dancing was outside in the street. What’s better than a street party?
 The room when I arrived.
After GJE set up the tables and decor.

 They also had a band performing outside too. Kolorblind, Messy J and Codini performed. The groom even performed!

Jessica and Jeffrey 8-16-13

Jessica and Jeffery had a gorgeous wedding! They had a vintage travel theme with elements of Michigan University (ex. flower colors). When you first hear the theme you might wonder exactly how it would all come together but it did perfectly!
Their ceremony was at the GrossePointe Academy Chapel which is stunning! The reception was at The Colony Club in Detroit. This is by far one of my favorite venues. I love the banquet coordinators, the staff is friendly and helpful and the food is always amazing!
