I’m sure you’ve picked up on the fact that Eric and I recently got married
We also just returned from our fabulous honeymoon in Greece and Switzerland. So, I figured it would be fun to share some of the photos from the wedding and honeymoon with you. We have yet to transfer the honeymoon photos to the computer so for now I’ll start with the wedding. Kelly Sweet from Grand Rapids, MI was our photographer. She and her assistant were absolutely amazing. She’s given us a preview of the photos on her blog and now we anxiously awaiting the rest of them.
Since we’re both from Michigan, we had the wedding there, in my home town. The ceremony was at my family church – both sides of my family have been members going back to my grandparents on one side and great grandparents on the other side! It was a very special place to be. I love this photo of the church…
My dress was made by Susan Yancer Hatcher in Spring Lake, MI. The first layer of tule was blue!
Our little ring bearer Winston was absolutely adorable….his tux was from Barker & Meowsky (a supporter of PAWS Chicago!)
For table decorations, I made table runners and a family friend found these great vintage white vases as Goodwill and Salvation Army. The flowers on the came from the local farmer’s market (with the exception of the spider mums) - my dad and a friend from church did the arrangements and bouquets.
Check out the rest of the photos on Kelly Sweet’s Blog -
you’ll see…my cute non-leather, pink shoes from Spring sitting on my favorite piece of family furniture – my Nana’s old green chairs, my Aunt Sara (along with help from Grandma & Grandpa) made the adorable dress for my God Daughter who came from England for the wedding, our absolutely delicious vegan cupcakes from Molly’s in Chicago, my Nana’s hanky served as my something old and something blue, the hand mirror was a very special shower gift from my cousin – handmade by a woman who took my Nana’s old jewelry and attached it to the back of the mirror – it’s beautiful and every so special, my pearl necklace and bracelet were from Bourdage Pearls in Chicago, on my right hand I wore a pearl ring which was a gift from Eric that morning (his Grandma gave it to me – it was a 1st wedding anniversary gift from Grandpa when she was pregnant with Eric’s dad – so special!), my pearl earrings were a Christmas gift from Eric this past Christmas, I made the programs and bound them on my sewing machine, we had two bands, the second (featured in the photos) is Ani from metro Detroit…
