Bart & Alicia: A Springtime Wedding (Holland Wedding Photographer)

March 18, 2022




When I met Bart and Alicia last year, I knew they were pretty awesome people. First of all, we had a blast during their engagement session. But they even stuck around with me when my car wouldn't start. After trying for quite awhile, they were able to get it running again, and were SO COOL about it despite how inconvenient it was. THANKS AGAIN, YOU GUYS! But I digress... I was super excited for their wedding at Baker Lofts in Holland, and even though the weather was a bit chilly and damp, we pulled off a fabulous wedding day. 

There were so many great moments. Their ceremony and reception in the Loft was beautiful, thanks in great part to Alicia's mom, Karol, who did the flower arrangements. Absolutely stunning! Bart and Alicia chose to do a first look, surrounded by their parents and wedding party friends. Alicia somehow got a bloody nose out of nowhere which added some interest to the moment (thankfully after their happy and tearful greeting to each other)! Alicia surprised Bart by including their pup in the processional before the ceremony and we got a few cute photos of the three of them before Riley had to go. And even though the bumper fell off the bus, making us a tad bit late to the reception, we got the party started and had a great time.

Again, I can't say more about how great these two are. Their family and friends pretty much confirmed what I already knew as well, and it was so exciting to be there to witness the start of their lives together.

Congrats to you both, and I wish the an amazing life with each other!!!
