A Michigan boy, a New York girl. They met one day by chance, (and although he was a little smitten with her from first sight…) they were friends until God brought them closer. They have a beautiful bond with each other, their families, and their friends. For their Muskegon wedding, they flew in from New York, along with her immediate family. They had guests from all over, all gathered in one place to witness their union, and to celebrate their love.

They were married by Andy’s uncle at the Fruitland Evangelical Covenant Church in Whitehall. The original plan was to be married outside amongst the pine trees, but the mosquitoes dictated otherwise. The church was beautiful, as was the ceremony, vows, and flowing music of the harpist.
Married! After outdoor family photos, we drove out to the beach for some Lake Michigan shoreline and sunshine :)
:: Awesomeness! ::
They had a gorgeous reception at the Greater Muskegon Woman’s Club. They made an amazing entrance, and went right into their first dance.
Loving these cake-cutting moments…. ;)
Look at the size of that slab of cake!!
After the cake cutting, and between hugs, kisses and laughs, we snuck the bride and groom upstairs for some glam nighttime portraits ~
They spent the rest of the evening dancing with their guests… and MAN, did they dance!! I loved their guests, everyone was having SO much fun!
One of my top fave dancing shots of the night – love this!!
Love this one of Liz and Andy… and the couple behind them! Perfect!
Congratulations Liz and Andy! You had a spectacular wedding with friends and family from all over the world. Everyone had an amazing time! And they were all brought together by the two of you. Isn’t that a beautiful thing? Cheers! :)
