Kyle & Cara: A Lakeside Wedding (West Michigan Wedding Photographer)

July 23, 2018



A Monday wedding? Yes, please! Every so often, an unusual date comes up. This one I didn't even realize was on a Monday until after Cara and I had been talking for awhile! But of course I couldn't turn it down! Though it was definitely not a bright and sunny day, it certainly was a bright and happy (and colorful) gathering. Cara and Kyle tied the knot at one of my favorite locations, Bay Pointe Inn in Gun Lake, and we made the most of the cloud cover throughout the day!

Cara did an amazing job on all her planning for this wedding. She did most of the work from out of state, and had to work with her vendors without much face-to-face contact (myself included). But she put the work in and had a lot of great help on the big day. Her friends and family ordered flowers and assembled the bouquets and centerpieces, as well as that beautiful garland, the weekend before the wedding. The details were perfect. And Cara designed the invite herself as well! Everything was so happy and colorful, so you see what I mean if I say who needed that sun!

Best wishes to this brand new couple. I had a ton of fun climbing in the lake for you two :)
