Michigan Wedding Photographer // Tony & Erika – Associate Wedding!

These two were just destined to be married.  Meeting at a friend’s wedding rehearsal started it all.  Their mutual friend decided that they were made for one another so arranged for them to walk together during the ceremony.  This friend knew what she was doing!  Many “set-ups” don’t fit perfectly, but this one sure did!

Tony and Erika were married last weekend in Benton Harbor at the Sarrett Nature Center.  Of course in Michigan, weather is always on our minds, but this day turned out lovely!  Kristi photographed this wedding and did amazing as always.  It’s so fun seeing the end result!  We hope you enjoy them, and Erika’s infectious smile, as much as we do!

Once Kristi arrived, it was time for their first look on Erika’s family farm.
