Catholic Wedding In Detroit Michigan
My First Ever Wedding In A Catholic Church Was Held At This Gorgeous Church In Detroit Michigan. Growing Up Catholic, I Was Familiar With All The Moving Parts Of The Mass, But I Had Never Been To A Catholic Ceremony Before This. emily & Zach Were Married In The Middle Of The Day At St Florian's, Followed By An Evening Reception At The Palazzo Grande In Sterling Heights Michigan. It's Quite Common For Catholic Ceremonies To Be Midday Because They Are Scheduled Around What The Church Has Planned Already (adoration, Reconciliation, Etc). I Gladly Assist My Couple's With Timeline Planning So We Can Plan A Smooth Flow Of The Day, Especially When A Ceremony Is At 1:00 And A Reception Starts At 6:00!

Wedding At Westers Family Vineyard In Rives Junction Michigan
I Know I Say This A Lot But This Day Was Such A Dream! Abby & Rob Chose Westers Family Vineyard In Rives Junction As Their Venue And It Was Stunning. The Amount Of Detail They Put Into Their Wedding Day Really Showcased Them Both Personally And As A Couple. I Loved That They Chose To Use Fall Colors For Their Summer Wedding- It Was So Unique To See This Time Of Year. All Of The Groomsmen Wore Dark Green Suits While The Bridesmaids Were In Terracotta With Matching Florals. Abby Had Taken Such Care When Choosing Decor Details Throughout Their Venue. They Had Grade School Pictures Of Them Used As Table Numbers, Which Was A Sweet Throwback To See. Abby And Rob Had Their Engagement Photos Hanging Up Throughout The Venue- It Was Very Art Gallery-esque! Abby Incorporated Some Decorations Her Students Had Made In Class. They Had Written Out A Sentence About What Love Was And They Were All Pinned On A Board Near Their Head Table.
