Grand Rapids Wedding Photographers // David + Mary!

Being trusted with a couple’s wedding photos is such a honor to me.  I LOVE being such a special part of my clients’ days, but it is extra special to me when my bride or groom are family.  In this instance, David is my cousin.  I have known him my entire life, so seeing him get married to the super sweet and gorgeous Mary was such a great honor!  Being part of a couples’ day behind the scene is so different than being a guest.  Lots of extra memories are made and fun stories to tell that not everyone would know about!  One of many reasons I love my job!

I loved Mary’s dress!  The bow on the shoulder was perfect 🙂

Small photos of their grandparents that could not be with them on their day were attached to David & Mary’s attire.  (That’s my grandpa Vincent on the right)

Gorgeous!

I have been lucky enough to get to know Mary over the past few years.  I have always thought she was a pretty girl, but when I saw her as a bride….her full beauty showed through!

Love these little in-between moments

Cutest ring bearer ever!  He was quite the dancing machine that night!

Loved the girls’ dresses

This is another cousin of mine.  Tammy will be getting married in the fall!

These photos from right before the ceremony are sometimes my favorites.

The first kiss is always a “must have” shot…..

….but I think I like this one better.  Where they linger a moment longer to soak it all in!

So Sweet!

The cake and cupcakes were from MiraBella Confections!  Delish as always!!

Love the emotion during the slideshow.  There is always a tear, a smile or a fun reaction to the images that pop up on the display!

Totally adore these b&w dancing images…..swoon!

This may be an all time fave for me!  Simply love this image!

Night shots are a must at every wedding now!

Congratulations David & Mary!  I hope you have an awesome time on your honeymoon in Riviera Maya!
