Bethanie & Brandon: River Edge Wedding | Lowell, Michigan

Photo collage of bride and groom during River Edge wedding day in Grand Rapids, Michigan.

 

Bethanie & Brandon’s late summer, River Edge wedding day in the Grand Rapids area was a perfect sunny day after a string of rainy, fall-ish days. We got to enjoy the last of 2019’s gorgeous, Michigan summer as we celebrated their River Edge wedding day ❤️ Both Bethanie and Brandon are so sweet, and they were so much fun to work with on their wedding day. I loved spending the day with them and their sweet families documenting all of their special memories.

Congratulations again, Bethanie & Brandon!

Ceremony:

We ended up having a beautiful, sunny afternoon for Bethanie & Brandon’s wedding ceremony. I loved seeing these two get emotional while reading their wedding vows to each other and being able to be a part of that moment and document it for them both. Check out just a couple of these gorgeous images from their wedding ceremony.

 

 

Reception:

Bethanie & Brandon’s reception was a blast! How cute are they cutting their cake!? I loved how sweet their first dance and father/daughter and mother/son special dances were. They finished their perfect day by dancing the night away with their family, friends, and all their loved ones! ❤️

Sunset:

After their special dances, I got the chance to sneak Bethanie & Brandon away for some sunset pictures out in the gorgeous fields around the River Edge wedding venue. Bill (from the venue) was so great and drove the three of us out to get Bethanie & Brandon some gorgeous pictures by the river. 100% worth the adventure!
