It was the most beautiful day for a wedding! You have no idea how happy I am that this one was moved from January! It was absolute perfection that indoors just wouldn’t have done justice! Maggie and Luke are the perfect couple, I love seeing them together, it all seems so effortless. So glad I was able to celebrate with them on their big day! Congratulations!

How did you meet?

We were getting Master’s degrees in medieval studies at Western Michigan University.

How long did you know each other before tying the knot?

Nearly seven years!

What was your favorite part of your wedding day?

Catching up with friends and family that we hadn’t seen in years!

What would you change, if anything, about your wedding day?

Nothing! Maybe a touch less wind 🙂

What advice do you have for other first time brides/grooms?

Being married is great, but getting married can be a logistical nightmare! Keep calm and stay focused on what part (or parts) will be most meaningful to you.
