Weddings @ The Big House...

Last week the ABC (Association of Bridal Consultants) members had the opportunity to check out a hot new Ann Arbor venue... The Big House! The University Of Michigan is finishing up a multi- million dollar renovation to the athletic facility and they will now be hosting space for weddings and other events. It's not cheap to rent, but if you're a die hard Wolverine fan you can now walk out the tunnel, get married on the football field, dance in a club suite, tour the locker room and even have the marching band play for you... okay, the band costs a little extra:)
I created a short video of the event... hope you enjoy it!

Cherie & Jess...

Cherie and Jess were married at the Indian Springs Metro Park Environmental Discovery Center on July 23, 2011. If you have never been there you should check it out... really sweet place! They even have an aquarium under the pond that you can walk in just like Sea World... minus the sharks of course:) The ceremony was outside on the park grounds and even though the weather was threatening rain everything went as planned in the end. The reception was decorated very earthy... blue spruce, cork, wood, wine bottles and beautiful flowers... it was simple yet trendy... LOVED IT! Cherie, Jess, friends and family had the dance floor hopping all night.

Enjoy their wedding trailer!

Chelsea and Dan....

One of the hottest weddings of the year, and I'm not just talking about the couple.... It was like 100 degrees and humid! Aside from the temperatures outside we had a blast filming this beautiful wedding day. Started the day off at the Niemiec lake house filming the girls getting glamed up while the guys got ready (and had some fun) at the Centerpoint Marriott. The Ceremony was at Orchard Lake St. Marys Chapel. This was our first time filming there and I really like it, it’s a beautiful facility. After a quick photo shoot we were off to the Centerpoint Marriott for a HUGE party… I mean reception… but it was like a huge party… it was AWESOME. I’m not sure if I have ever seen a dance floor more packed, seriously the entire night! A top notch meal, an Elvis impersonator, Chelsea’s brothers singing “You Lost That Loving Feeling”, a photo/video booth, a candy stand, and a late night buffet consisting of sliders, coney dogs, french fries and pizza! So much fun!!!

Hope you enjoy their wedding trailer!
