Wedding Photography in Byron Center and Hudsonville, Michigan

My weekend wedding in Byron Center and the reception in Hudsonville was a thing of beauty.  Jessica and Tim pronounced their vows at Byron Center First Christian Reformed Church.  The church is a nice place for weddings.  There is plenty of space and locations for wonderful images.  They have stained glass windows that can be used for great impact images.  The sanctuary itself has a balcony for aerial shots but the natural lighting is a bit sparse.  The flowers really added to the ceremony, and they were beautiful!  The officiant was Bill Layle.  The wedding colors were green and white with pink accents.

The florist was Gail Vanderlaan and she is from Belmont, Michigan.  You can see here beautiful website of flowers here.
Her email is gail@gvlfloral.com and her phone number is 616.364.8954.  The wedding party LOVED their flowers and everything held up throughout the humid day perfect.  Thank you Gail for the incredible artistic decor and flower bouquets and boutonnieres.  Your colors and artistry really added to my work!  Here are some examples of her work.


    
Jessica and Tim hired the Grand Rapids Trolley Company in Grand Rapids, Michigan and the entire wedding party loaded up in the trolley and we headed to downtown Grand Rapids for images by the blue bridge by the museum.  Here are a few of them.



Did I mention that we had ALOT of fun!!!  This whole wedding party rocked and they were up for almost anything, for example…


Get the idea.

Our second location was Heritage Park in Grandville, Michigan.  We made some elegant images there and also many fun shots too!  Check them out…


And we were off to the reception hall, the Pinnacle Center in Hudsonville, Michigan.
The Pinnacle center puts on a great show and has their own DJ, light show, aerial video with large projection screens to watch the reception on, and MC and WONDERFUL food!  The DJ was removed from the dance floor which is kind of weird but everything else was top notch.  I would recommend the Pinnacle Center in Michigan for your wedding and reception. 
Dancing the night away…  Check out some beautiful wedding images of theirs and remember to check back for a posting of online images soon and an online wedding album in the next few days!  I’ll leave you with a bunch of random wedding images of Jessica and Tim, friends, and family…

Wedding in Byron Center and Hudsonville, Michigan

Just back from a wonderful wedding with Jessica and Tim on 6.28.2008 in Byron Center and Hudsonville, Michigan.  It was a perfect day for a perfect couple!  The wedding party and family were just awesome to work with and we made some of the best images that I have made in my career.  It is so nice to have people who want to work with you no matter what you ask of them and also have the creative wedding group that has perfect ideas for perfect images.  I think that everyone brought their A game.

Right now I am loading all of the images onto my computer for editing and I will have the images on this blog and my online wedding image site within a couple of days.  Come back and check out all the wonderful images!
