Chris and Emily are the kind of couple who just seem that they always were. They have a natural comfort and ease about them when they’re together and it is just so simple to see how they became the couple that they are. Their love is the kind of love that does and will last forever, I have no question in my mind. So feeling this about them made being a part of their wedding celebration an even greater honor, and it was simply beautiful.

Emily and her girls were exactly on time, dressed quickly and were perfectly on schedule- now that is one way to make a photographer very, very happy! LOL.

Simply gorgeous

I couldn’t believe my eyes when the guys showed up with guns blazing…. and then I heard the stories of how much fun they had with them the night before!

Ceremony- They were married at Christ Lutheran Church in Oakley, Michigan

I just love the way they smile with their eyes… look at that! (They had the special experience of having Chris’ dad, Pastor Grant, marry them- I think that is pretty cool!)

Whoo-hoo!!

On the way to the reception we stopped at the park near Curwood Castle in Corunna- what a beautiful location! It sure was sunny and hot though!

They had a full house at the reception hall, Gigi’s in Owosso, MI. I don’t think they could have fit in one more chair! Everyone was excited to share the celebration with the new Mr. and Mrs.!

We stole a few moments outside to breathe, enjoy the sunset, and capture a few kisses as newleyweds… What a perfect day!
