Grand Rapids Public Museum Wedding- Jeremy and Caitlin

Grand Rapids Public Museum
Grand Rapids, MI

Congratulations to Jeremy and Caitlin!! What a beautiful wedding!  We couldn't ask for a better venue, with the wonderful background of Grand Rapids.

This was the first time I photographed the first look with the bride's father. What a loving moment with such a loving family. Speaking of family, I was astounded that the grandparents were ready and waiting for photos an hour before we needed them! How cute is that?! (A big thank you to Jackie, family friend and "wedding manager", for organizing everyone and everything that day! How I wish you were a wedding planner!)

This day came with a ton of surprises. My favorite one was when the Brockette family surprised their parents with a "first dance", since they never had one at their wedding.  It was really beautiful.

This wedding was filled with lots of tears, smiles, and laughter. Caitlin and Jeremy are such a warm and friendly couple. I wish you the best life together!!

Enjoy the sample photos of their big day...

Congratulations to Nate and Diana! This couple is so sweet together. I had the pleasure of photographing a couple of sessions for them, so I knew how natural and adoring they would be on their wedding day.

My favorite part of this day was definitely the snow!! What a gorgeous winter wedding! Thanks to the entire bridal party for being troopers in the cold!

I hope Mr. and Mrs. Westgate have a wonderful honeymoon and warm up a bit in Hawaii!

Congratulations to Dave and Maggie! What a gorgeous couple with tons of personality!

I have photographed the Zick family for other occasions and I have a blast each time. They are the type of people you just want to be around. Maggie told me at the initial consult that she had asked my availability before they even picked the wedding date!! I am extremely honored and so excited to share these.

These two are very unique and you could see their easy, relaxed, and modern style throughout the day.  This wedding was so wonderful and fun! First off, I have NEVER been to a ceremony like that before! Garry, officiant and friend, had everyone laughing in hysterics. My favorite part was when Garry made Dave sing lyrics to a famous song as part of the vows.  The fun carried through the whole night.

I feel very grateful that I had the opportunity to document their big day! I want to do it again. And again. And again.
