Amy & Tyden: Post Family Farm Wedding | Grand Rapids, Michigan

Amy and Tyden’s Post Family Farm wedding was such a perfect Michigan June wedding. The Saturday that they got married was one of the hottest days of the year so far, but it ended up being an absolutely gorgeous day for Amy & Tyden to get married! From start to finish, their day was full of so many gorgeous details. I mean just take a look at that gorgeous bouquet! 😍 Top it off with sweet Sebastian who pulled their horse-drawn carriage, and you’ve got the makings of a fairy tale day! (Even if Sebastian did try to eat the bouquet, lol!)

Both Amy and Tyden were so sweet, and it’s no wonder with the families they’re surrounded by. Both of their families went out of their way to make sure that us vendors had everything we needed during their Post Family Farm wedding day. We were welcomed in like family, and that always makes a wedding day extra special to document. One of my favorite parts of Amy and Tyden’s day was during their first look. After they saw each other, they took a moment to pray together, and then they read each other letters that they had written specifically for their big day. I love it when my couples take intentional time out of their day to spend a few moments together and celebrate the beginning of their marriage and soak everything in. Wedding days are so busy and overwhelming because of everything going on. It happens so fast and if you’re not careful, it’s all a blur. Taking that time to slow down and enjoy each other’s company always ends up being a favorite part of the day for years to come!

Congratulations again, Amy and Tyden!
