I love it when you come across something that reminds you just how small this world really is and how some things are just destined to be. Katie and Peter both attended the University of Michigan (YAY, Go Blue ??!!!) at the same time. However, it wasn’t until a few years after they graduated that they first met through mutual friends. Years later when Peter was looking back at photos from his graduation at the Big House, he noticed a familiar face sitting a few rows in front of him. It was Katie. The fact that she sat in front of her future husband that day and didn’t even know it or him at the time just shows that if something’s meant to be, it will always find a way! These two were married in Grand Rapids and I was so excited to be able to document their day!
One of my favorite parts of Katie & Peter’s wedding was the first look they shared. While getting ready in the morning, Katie was nervous and couldn’t wait to see Peter. A soon as she saw him, the nerves melted away and she got tears in her eyes. When Peter saw Katie, he covered his mouth with his hands, just in awe of her beauty.
They had a beautiful ceremony at Immaculate Heart of Mary Church and a stunning tented reception under the stars at Blythefield Country Club where their guests danced the night away and mingled by the outdoor bar.
Katie & Peter, thank you for trusting me to capture one of the most important days of your life. It has been such a pleasure getting to know you both over the past year and I wish you both a lifetime of love and happiness!! Go Blue! ;) Much love, Jen. xx
