Grand Rapids Wedding Photographer // Kevin & Debbie – Frederick Meijer Garden Winter Wedding!

Kevin & Debbie are such a relaxed, easy going couple.  I had only met them a few times leading up to their wedding due to living quite far away, but I knew I would like them instantly.  They were very kind to me and made my team feel welcome all throughout their special day.  Not only are they wonderful people, but their wedding was gorgeous!  With help from Aletha, from Pearls Events, it was sure to be nothing short of spectacular.  From the dark red floral pieces to the navy blue dresses and linens….I was in love!  I hope you love it too….!

Debbie had a simple and relaxed style…my kind of lady!  Love her ribbon-laced Keds.

These may be my all time fave wedding bouquets.  I simply adore the dark red peonies and all the texture.  LOVE!

Aren’t the Frederick Meijer Gardens a gorgeous place for a winter wedding?  Freezing cold outside and we still get nice tropical photos…

Posh Petals did an amazing job with the floral pieces!

Looking at these cupcakes from Mirabella Confections makes me sooo hungry….

Aletha recommended this jazz band for music and entertainment.  They were absolutely awesome!  I would hire them in a second for any of my events!

Reindeer definitely made my day!

We had about a half second of sun….which is always a must for wedding photos!

  1. […] Kevin & Debbie’s wedding took place on a lovely winter day, without any snow, at Frederick Meijer Gardens.  It was a relaxed day with their friends and family surrounding them as they celebrated.  Aletha, with Pearls Events, did a gorgeous job with the decor as usual….giving me lots of pretty things to photograph!  Their album was so fun to design with the photos of them and the reindeer…..too cute!  View their full wedding blog post here!
