Chris & Amy: A Summertime Wedding (West Michigan Wedding Photographer)

June 30, 2024

On an absolutely beautiful day, Chris and Amy were married. In front of their most precious family and friends, the two of them said their vows to one another, promising a lifetime of love and happiness.

This wedding was so full of emotion and love. On one side, a second shot at happily ever after, and on the other side, someone stepping in to fill a void. With love in their hearts, these two made it official!

Amy told me she wanted to capture the emotion of their wedding day, and there certainly was no shortage of that. Happy tears, huge smiles, laughs, hugs, and having a great time—there was so much to take in from the moment I arrived until the end of the reception.

The venue was breathtakingly beautiful, adorned with a ton of flowers and gorgeous details. It was a stunning space that was made even more enchanting with the exquisite decor. The floral arrangements were lush and vibrant, creating a romantic and inviting atmosphere. From the elegant table settings to the charming decorative touches, every detail was thoughtfully planned to enhance the beauty of the venue.

Chris's huge family was such a delight to meet and work with. They brought an infectious energy and joy that was felt throughout the day. Amy's kids were so incredibly happy for their loving mom, and their smiles and excitement added to the joyful atmosphere. It was heartwarming to see the blending of families, with everyone coming together to celebrate this beautiful union.

One particularly memorable moment was the first dance. Chris and Amy swayed together, completely lost in each other’s eyes, between the big smiles and joyful laughs. It was a perfect encapsulation of their love story—two people who had found each other against the odds and were now embarking on a new journey together.

I'm so happy that the two of you found each other, Amy and Chris! And that you trusted me to be a part of your wonderful wedding day. It was an honor to capture these precious moments for you. Congratulations on your marriage, and may your life together be filled with endless love and happiness!
