Sanilac County Wedding Photographers | Bridgette & David

Bridgette and David contacted us earlier this year to be their Sanilac County wedding photographer team, and we were so excited to go explore the amazing little beach town of Lexington that is just a short drive north of Port Huron. We love the little village of Lexington, because of all the secret hidden gems located around each curve. There are so many things that are naturally beautiful, between the lake, and the small nooks and crannies throughout the town. We got the chance to venture into the downtown Lexington area for their bridal portraits, and traveling around the city was easy, since they had a small bridal party. We were able to get in a ton of portraits of the two of them, that really captures their love for one another perfectly, as well as their intimacy.

Bridgette is a very quiet and relaxed girl, so their ceremony was perfect. All day, she honestly just beamed and radiated love. They both shed tears throughout the ceremony, and you could really just see how strong their love is for each other, and that’s what we wanted to portray in their photos.

The wedding ceremony took place at St. Matthew Lutheran Church in Lexington, a charming little church that Bridgette grew up in. The reception was at the beautiful Lakeview Hills. The day was such a perfect Michigan summer day, we even quietly sneaked out during the reception for some portraits on the golf course, as well.

Bridgette and David, your wedding day was simply perfect, and we can’t thank you enough for choosing Mulberry & Sage Photography to be your Sanilac County wedding photographer team. We hope you love this small preview into your special, love-filled day.

Tina’s Country House Wedding Photographer | Ashlee & David

Back in July, we were able to spend the day celebrating Ashlee & David’s wedding day, and being Tina’s Country House Wedding Photographers in Macomb County. This was the first time we have ever photographed a wedding there, and it was awesome to explore the grounds and gardens, and see a new and different wedding venue in Macomb County. The food was great, and we may (or may not) still have dreams of the cannolis that Tina’s hand makes, that were to die for. (Seriously. So good.)

Ashlee and David have a very sweet love story. Ashlee needed her car fixed, and a friend told her to take it to David. They met, and since then, have been inseparable. Ashlee has two boys from a previous relationship, and David stepped right in and loves the boys as if they are his own. It’s a sweet relationship to witness. Then, together, Ashlee and David had baby Roman (who kept giving me very serious faces all night long. Adorable.)

Their wedding at Tina’s Country House was so much fun. It was full of dancing and all around a giant party scene, so the candid photos that we captured throughout the day were some of our absolute favorites. We had so much fun joking right along with the bridal party and guests, and capturing the celebration of the entire day. Most of the details you see photographed are all hand made and crafted by Ashlee. She was literally hot gluing the groomsmen’s boutineers in the hotel room as she was getting her hair done; talk about some serious dedication! She crafted all the centerpieces, as well as all the floral arrangements that the bridal party used, and we loved the tiny little details that, we could tell, were made out of love.

Ashlee & David, thank you for choosing Mulberry & Sage Photography to be your Tina’s Country House Wedding Photographers. We hope you enjoy this small preview into your amazing wedding day.

McMorran Wedding Photographer | Beth & Mark

Today we’re back to talk about Beth & Mark’s beautiful wedding back in June, when they hired the Mulberry & Sage trio to be their McMorran Wedding Photographer team. We met Beth and Mark back in the winter, and immediately loved their story and spirits. Combined, they have six kids; making them kind of like an awesome, modern-day version of the Brady Bunch. They wanted a unique wedding, and are both avid hockey fans, so the McMorran in Downtown Port Huron was the perfect choice for their wedding venue. They live in the Sterling Heights area, but Beth’s brother works for the local radio station WBTI, so they always visit the Blue Water Area, and love the area as if they were locals.

Courtney was able to photograph the guys when they were getting ready, and focus on Mark’s family photos before the ceremony, while Megan hung with Beth and got to photograph her funny and gigantic family down by the Blue Water Bridges. Kathryn was also able to join us for the ceremony portion, and it was awesome to work together as a Port Huron wedding photography team with the three of us, and get every single detail from the wedding that we know Beth & Mark will love and cherish for years to come. Our personal favorite part was when all the kids were called to the front to mix sand together, symbolizing the unity of their family. Beth’s daughter was quite emotional, and it was seriously the sweetest thing ever. She’s a lucky little girl, to now have 5 big brothers to watch over and protect her.

After the ceremony, we did our portrait session in front of the McMorran, as well as at a few other areas downtown, and then we were able to go into the actual arena and take some fun photos in the classic vintage seats up there, as well. It was awesome for the sports-loving family that Beth & Mark have.

We hope you enjoy this preview into Beth & Mark’s special day, and if you’re looking for a Port Huron McMorran Wedding Photographer team, we’d love to chat with you! You can learn more about our team here.

Port Huron Engagement Photographers | Dan & Dani

We’re back with another beautiful preview into Dani & Dan’s session, where they hired us as their Port Huron Engagement Photographers. We can’t get enough of this engagement session at beautiful Ruby Lodge (Ruby Tree Farm) in Ruby, Michigan. If you are planning a wedding and haven’t booked your venue, we always recommend to our brides to check out Ruby Lodge. We always love photographing engagements and weddings here. This blog, featuring Dan and Dani’s engagement session, highlights just a few of our favorite locations, though there are so many other intimate spots located throughout Ruby, too. This is just one of the reasons we are looking forward to your wedding, Dan and Dani, this September at Ruby Lodge in Port Huron Area, Michigan. We are so happy to be your Port Huron Wedding Photography team!
Now, back to Dan and Dani! To speak frankly, they are like peanut butter and jelly. They are so different, (he likes video games and eating eggs, she likes make-up and singing her heart out to 2000’s rock while driving) but put them together, and they become a power-duo made for each other. Seriously, their names even match.
Dan is a jokester (we love this for sessions) and Dani always laughs at everything that he says, making them the perfect pair, yet again. Looking though their engagement session portraits, we think that this really shines true! We had such a fun time exploring the grounds, and joking alongside them both. We love doing engagement sessions prior to the wedding day, because it really gives us the chance to get to know a couple better, before the added stresses of the wedding day hits.

We have enjoyed capturing and documenting this part of their love story, and are looking forward to the next BIG chapter: their September 2017 wedding day! Thank you for letting Mulberry & Sage Photography be your trusted Port Huron engagement photographers.

Mulberry and Sage Photography is a Port Huron Wedding Photography team. Though our Wedding Photography Studio is Located in Downtown Port Huron, Michigan, we serve all of the Metro-Detroit Michigan areas, and beyond.

Lexington Wedding Photographer | Hannah & Devin

Hannah and Devin contacted us earlier this year to be their Lexington Wedding Photographer for their upcoming June 2017 wedding happening at the Knights of Columbus in Lexington, Michigan. We loved getting to know Hannah and Devin and their families and family dynamics. They both come from very large families, and we really enjoyed watching their genuine interactions with each member of their families, from preschool-aged half brothers to infant nephews. We could immediately tell that family values are huge to Devin and Hannah, and that their special day was going to be filled with emotion, and jam-packed with love. (more…)
