What a perfect day! To be honest it was also the first time the weatherman was 100% right! 35% chance of rain? I think it really rained 35% of the time… and the time that didn’t effect us! It was the best luck ever! And as you’ll see this was my favorite timeline, too! I couldn’t be more excited about how perfectly laid back the whole process was, surrounded by a gorgeous and fun group of family and friends! From the first look, to Old Town Saginaw and a special stop at Oracle Brewing, then back to Forest Edge in Auburn for a beautiful ceremony and reception! I hope to see this beautiful family again and again! *wink, wink, nudge nudge*

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

Both : 5 and a half years.

What was your favorite part of your wedding day?

Ryan : Seeing my beautiful wife for the first time.

What advice do you have for other first time grooms?

Ryan : Plan the day for you, don’t do things just because others say you are suppose to.

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

Alahna : I would give us more time for pictures when we took the bus to downtown Saginaw. It was a little rushed but I still think it went well.

How did you meet?

Both : We worked together at Harvey’s.

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

Ryan : No rain would have been nice, everything was perfect besides that.

What advice do you have for other first time brides?

Alahna : Make sure you have everyone on the same page with your schedule and what needs to happen when for the big day. You don’t want to be answering little questions all day long. I was very happy with everyone’s help and I had very few things to worry about with the setup 🙂

What was your favorite part of your wedding day?

Alahna : I loved every bit of it! But I think my most favorite part was the band and everyone dancing together. We even got some people on the dance floor I didn’t expect to see there!
