The Revel Center - Sam and Seth

The Revel Center
Grand Rapids, MI

Congratulations Samantha and Seth! What a beautiful winter wedding! It had some perfect moments- from Seth and Sam sharing private vows to each other before the ceremony, to family making the day even more special with their humorous toasts, and then, of course, bagpipes!

The lucky ducks have been together for about three years. They first met when the bride heckled the groom at a lacrosse game in college. Fast forward four years, when they met again on Hinge. The official first date was a movie night at Sam’s house, but it ended up being a chat that lasted for five hours instead. Seth proposed on Sam’s family vacation for the 4th of July, where everyone was in on the surprise.

THE FELT MANSION WEDDING- LeAnn and Dan

THE FELT ESTATE
HOLLAND, MI

Congratulations to Leann and Dan! What a beautiful ceremony at The Felt Mansion, surrounded by water at the fountain, and surrounded by the bridal party of Dan and Leann’s daughters, son, and daughters’ boyfriends. It was very relaxed, from getting ready all the way through to the end of the partying. The rain even held off until we were all inside for dinner! Rain is good luck for a wedding, so it was even better luck that we still got to have the ceremony outside right before the downfall.

These two met through an internet dating service in December 2012. For their first date they saw a jazz Christmas special concert and had dinner at the Knight Cap in Lansing. They took things slowly and Dan proposed in December 2018 during dinner out with LeAnn’s daughters. It was a complete surprise. They had planned a September 2020 wedding, but Covid-19 had other plans and they postponed until 2021.

LeAnn and Dan bought their first house together in November 2020. They both like to take walks, ride bikes, play golf, and win money at the casino together! Their honeymoon was spent in Costa Rica!

Dan and LeAnn, thank you for trusting me to document your story. I hope you two keep having wonderful adventures together. You have a beautiful family.
