Noelle + Andrew >>> engaged May 17, 2012 Leave a Fabulous Comment

dsc_5093-copy

This sweet couple met at the University of Michigan when they were both law students. So it seemed only fitting to head back to Ann Arbor for their engagement session! We started at the arboretum just outside of campus and ended our session at the place it all started.

Noelle and Andrew now reside in North Carolina but their wedding is back here in Michigan this fall on the shores of Lake Michigan. I just adore everything about these two! I also loved that they brought a sweet little balloon (and in true murphy’s law fashion, the other balloon popped as soon as we joked about it as we were walking down to our first place).

I was thrilled when The Knot contacted me last fall to feature Aubrey+Kyle’s Lake Michigan wedding and even more thrilled to see it in print! Their lovely details and wonderful style were reflected perfectly in their wedding.

Allison + Mark >>> wedding preview May 15, 2012 2 Fabulous Comments

dsc_3977-copy

Saturday, May 5, 2012 - Lansing and Ann Arbor - MI

Mark and Allison are recent graduates of Michigan State University. On Friday, May 4 they graduated with their Ph.Ds. They invited their families to be part of such a major life event. Their family came in from all over the country…Mark’s family from all over the east coast, Allison’s from, well, all over. At the dinner that followed, they passed out their Save the Dates for the wedding they were planning. The next day. Surprise!

I met them at the gardens of MSU to start with family pictures that day. So, side story…originally they were going to go under the guise of having family pictures taken together that afternoon. Afterward, Allison was going to change into her dress, and then Surprise! Wedding! But plans change and it worked better to surprise the families the night prior. But we stuck with the original plan of pictures prior. All family members were asked to where black and white, which was the color theme of their day (and done oh so well!) And afterward, Allison and her sister and her friends helped her slip into her wedding dress. We all met back in the gardens for the most perfect, intimate ceremony. Their pup also in tow and in attendance. No wedding party. No seats. Just a ceremony surrounded in love. Officiated by one of their beloved professors.

The reception was held in Ann Arbor at Zingerman’s Roadhouse (also known as my new favorite Ann Arbor restaurant). Again, perfectly intimate and perfectly them. Great food, wine and beer for all. Allison and Mark’s pretty cake done by A Piece O’ Cake.

Needless to say, I enjoyed this day immensely. I adore this couple and wish them nothing but love and happiness as they begin their married life together.

Jennifer + David >>> engaged 3 Fabulous Comments

dsc_1426-copy

Last week I traveled to Chicago to meet this sweet couple! Jennifer and David are getting married later this fall at one of my favorite Southern Michigan venues…the Blue Dress Barn.

These two are a busy couple. David travels a lot for work and Jennifer busy between work and wedding planning and crafting (she’s a fellow Pinterest-obsessed girl!). Their details are going to be oh so lovely and after meeting them both am even more excited for their fall wedding.
