If you’ve been reading this blog lately or follow us on twitter or facebook, you know we’ve been excited about our first wedding of the season at the brand new Mill Creek Barns! Saturday was the big day, and even though the morning started out rainy, Megan+Greg ended up with a beautiful day for a Southwest Michigan wedding! Megan+Greg had a very fun and unique wedding that was filled with their own personalities and personal touches, and it turned out absolutely beautiful and perfect for them! All photographs are courtesy of the talented duo Tressie+Chad at Two Pair Photography!
Despite morning rain, the sun came out and we had a wonderful cocktail hour outside with passed appetizers, a lemonade and iced tea bar (complete with mason jars to sip from) and an outdoor bar with Michigan beers & wines handpicked by the couple.
Inside the dining hall we decorated tables with burlap overlays, tree ring chargers, and mason jars we filled with hydrangeas and wildflowers or candles. In honor of the couples love for adventurous trips, each table was named for a trip or “adventure” the couple has been on, complete with a picture of the couple at that location. The escort cards sprang from tins of grass with a sign stating, “Find Your Own Adventure.” The nights menu hung on a hand-painted canvas and a delicious dinner was served family-style by CK Catering! After dinner, guests moved into the Dance Hall where Montage kicked off the night, and guests never sat down again!
Here are a few of their beautiful ceremony at St. Bernards! Megan was just one of the happiest brides I have ever seen and her smile was contagious! Thanks to all of the vendors that made this first event of the year so successful and a big Thanks to Megan+Greg for letting us be a part of your special day!
