Amy and Jesse met in college at Grand Valley State University where they bonded over their love of craft beer and the outdoors. They were out hiking one day in their home state of Colorado when Jesse proposed and asked Amy to spend the rest of her life with him. These two were married this past October outdoors in the sunshine on a private estate near East Lansing, MI overlooking the most beautiful field of Fall colors. There were even horses on the property! Amy and Jesse had an intimate wedding surrounded by their dearest friends and family and there was so much love and excitement in the air before the ceremony! One of my favorite moments of the day was when Jesse saw Amy for the first time at their first look. The reaction on his face says it all! Amy looked absolutely stunning in her lace and tulle dress and her gorgeous veil. After the ceremony and sneaking away for some photos with the horses, speeches started inside the tent on the property and I don’t think there was a dry eye in the house. Amy’s Maid of Honor gave the most beautiful speech about how Amy stuck by her side through some very hard times and how much that meant to her and they both had tears streaming down their faces. One of the highlights of the night for all of their family and friends in attendance was when Jesse surprised everyone with the announcement that he and Amy would be moving back to Michigan soon! After dinner was served and the first dances were done, we snuck outside for sunset portraits and had a gorgeous orange glowy sky! Amy and Jesse’s wedding day ended with a perfect sparkler sendoff! Amy and Jesse, thank you for inviting me into your family for the day and choosing me to document your love for each other! I hope you love your photos! xx Jen
