Lexi & Daniel’s wedding day was an absolute dream. For me, as a photographer, it was the kind of wedding I am always hoping for: lots of beautiful details that really tell the story of our couple and more than that, a couple that is head over heels in love with each other to the point that the actually wedding is more important than anything else happening that day. Both Lexi and Daniel are inspiring on their own, and a definitive power couple together. It isn’t often that a couple leaves such an impression that we talk about them weeks after meeting, but we certainly did with these two.

You won’t be left wanting for tropical, hawaiian-esque vibes that overtook The Homestead and the Leelanau School, and their beachfront ceremony made for a stunning backdrop. Posh Petals came through with incredible arrangements and some of the biggest banana and palm leaves we have ever seen in our state! The entire vendor team was a marvel and we have to mention them: Team Hair + Beauty, 2BaysDJs, Island Thyme Catering (best. wedding. food. EVER.), Moomers, Lane Gordon Videography (see the highlight film at the bottom of this post!), Event Theory, Top Tier Cakery, Williams & Bay, and Happy Snappy Photobooth).

Check out some of our favorites from their day!

Maggie + Ace kicked off our 2021 wedding season and BOY was it a beautiful day! After the postponements and craziness of the prior year, to arrive to such a sunny, joy-filled event was a gift! We got to team up with the mega talent Chandra, of Orchestrated Grace, and experience that magic that only northern Michigan has to offer. We started the day at the bride’s cottage on Glen Lake, and ended at a private residence that had been transformed into the most beautiful reception. We especially loved handmade wooden ring tray made by the groom and the couple’s talents were put to good use as they brewed beverages as favors for their guests. Mainstreet Soul blew the party away with their live music and Stella Mobile Bar, Bubbles and Brews and Flour Shop kept the guest well hydrated and filled up on the most flavorful and moist cake we have ever had at a wedding! So much beauty to be shared, we hope you enjoy looking through our favorites from the day!
