    After spending a spur-of-the-moment Saturday afternoon in August with Kat and Nicholas, we have the opinion that everybody needs to witness or photograph and elopement like theirs sometime in their lives. Kat and Nick contacted us (literally) a week before their wedding day to be their Lexington Elopement Photographer. They were in the planning stages of coming over to this side of the state (they live in Kalamazoo, now) and get married on the shores of their special place in Lexington Heights, Michigan. They wanted a very small event, with only close friends and family present, and including their children into their day was also very important to them.

    It was forecasted to severally storm that day, so instead, they had their ceremony in Kat’s parent’s back yard on their patio. Nick’s sister got ordained on the internet to perform their service, and surprised them by also putting together a sand ceremony to blend their lives together. Kat and Nicholas met in the theater, performing for the play A Streetcar Named Desire. Their ceremony was the most moving ceremony we’ve probably ever witnessed. They recited their own vows to each other, and even some Shakespeare was quoted at the end. After their kiss, they quickly went inside and got a champagne toast going, and the celebration began.

    Remember how we mentioned the weather forecast? Well, it turned out to be a gorgeous day, and we spent some time after their ceremony in Lexington Heights doing some intimate portraits with the two of them, and then we met up in Lexington before their dinner reception for some larger group family shots. They had dinner on Lake Huron, and spent the day celebrating their love and new vows an promises to each other.

    Kat was a stunning bride, but their love for each other really shines through in these photos, and we couldn’t help but share some of our favorites with you. If you’re planning an elopement in Eastern Michigan, we’d love to discuss becoming your Lexington Elopement Photographer. We have smaller packages available, perfect for an intimate elopement celebration!

    We have so many details that we want to share from Gillian and Charlie’s Port Huron wedding, we hardly know where to start. Last fall, Gillian and Charlie contacted us to be their Port Huron Wedding Photographer Team. They were originally planning a wedding for August, however, when their ideal date opened up at the venue, their August wedding changed into a September wedding, and it couldn’t have been a more perfect day.

    We started the day photographing Gillian getting ready and her parent’s gorgeous house on Black River. The mood was fun, and festive, and we loved all the nautical details around the home. Gillian is an avid sailor and has a sail boat and was practically born with her sea legs, so we really loved incorporating those small details around her parents house, such as the antique models, and the book her Grandfather wrote, into her wedding detail shots. We loved the reveal she had with her Dad, and the special bond that we captured between the two of them, as well.

    Then we headed over to the picturesque St. John’s United Church of Christ in Port Huron, and spent some time with Charlie and his ultra-fun group of groomsmen. From there, the ceremony went off without a hitch, and we were able to spend some time after the service capturing the beauty of the old church with some portraits up front, and inside at the alter, as well. Gillian and Charlie literally tied the knot during their ceremony, and we loved witnessing and photographing that moment.

    After that, we cruised around Port Huron in their party bus, and stopped off at some of our favorite downtown Port Huron locations for portraits, before heading back to Gillian’s parent’s house again for more portraits- this time including their dog Zeppelin. He holds a special place in their hearts, and we loved those photos and memories they’ll have.

    Their reception took place at the Blue Water Convention Center, and was simply beautiful. Once again, little nautical touches were all over the place and it was awesome. The party lasted well into the night, and the atmosphere was super fun.

    We hope you enjoy this small preview into when we were Gillian & Charlie’s Port Huron Wedding Photographer Team. Please feel free to leave the couple some happy wishes in the comment section below. If you’re looking for professional wedding photographers in Port Huron, we’d love to connect!

    This wasn’t our normal gig, but it was a true marriage celebration because Steve and Karen were already married in Estes Park, Colorado. They contacted Mulberry & Sage Photography to be their Marriage Celebration Photographers, and we knew Steve because he owns the building in which we lease our space for our Downtown Port Huron photography studio. (Have you stopped by the studio? Humble brag moment: it’s pretty much perfect, and amazing. Courtney has some legit decorating skills, and it’s adorable. We love having consultations in our studio, showcasing all our recent work, loud and proud, on the wall.)

    Steve and Karen wanted to throw a rockin’ party for their closest family and friends to celebrate their recent nuptials. It was very intimate, but from the very beginning of the evening, you could feel the excitement and energy. Steve and Karen were radiating happiness, and it was contagious to all that was near. It was a picture-perfect day that started with cocktails on the patio. There were a lot of guests that traveled a long distance to be there, so the reunions were wonderful to witness. After catching up over drinks and passed hors d’oeuvres, the guests were brought into the beautiful dinning room at the Port Huron Golf Club, and treated to a fabulous meal. A few toasts were given by close friends, and then it was time for dancing. They had a live band Chateau, and they had everyone on the dance floor all night long. It was hard to keep focused on the job documenting the party, when our feet just wanted to dance along to the music. It was such an incredible event and we are so happy to be part of it. We hope they enjoy these memories, for years to come.

    If you’re in the market for some Marriage Celebration Photographers, we’d love to discuss our options with you (in our Port Huron photography studio! Wink face.)

    We were so excited when Hope and Josh contacted us to be their Pennsylvania Destination Wedding Photographer . We know Josh because he is the brother of a local fellow photographer, and we were thrilled that she referred Mulberry & Sage Photography for the job to travel and photograph their wedding in Pittsburgh.

    Josh and Hope’s day was gorgeous from start to finish. We started with a first look at a great little park down the road from the venue. Josh and Hope had their first look under a gazebo by a huge pond, and it was just as scenic as it was moving. We caught Josh wiping away a few tears seeing Hope in her gorgeous wedding gown. We walked around the park for bridal party photos and finished with photos of just Josh and Hope. Those are our favorites. Getting brides and grooms a few moments alone to relax and enjoy each other on their wedding day is part of our expertise.

    The ceremony & reception took place at The Fez, and from the moment you stepped inside, you got swept away by the glitz and glam. Their colors were black and gold, and the theme was carried beautifully throughout the venue. The ceremony was short and sweet and then it was on to party. The DJ had everyone on the dance floor all night. It was such a fun atmosphere!

    Josh & Hope were absolutely made for each other. They share the same humor and interests, and ,quite literally, make each other stronger. We feel like it’s worth mentioning a 3rd equation to their relationship, and that is bodybuilding. Currently, Josh is training Hope for her next competition, and they have plans to make it to the pro circuit very soon. You may have noticed the doughnut bar? Those were there specifically for Josh. He just loves food- especially Crispy Creme’s. That is why he said he will gladly be training versus competing in this round.

    After all, they say find a partner who shares the same passion as you and do it together- and they have.  #SoulMatesForLife

    We feel like we use the term “backyard wedding” loosely when we describe Mike and Brooke’s amazing and intimate wedding in August. Brooke and Mike contacted Mulberry & Sage Photography to be their Port Huron Backyard Wedding Photographers for their carnival themed wedding happening in Mike’s Dad’s backyard on the Black River. The carnival theme really fit their personalities, because they are both super laid-back, and fun loving.

    Mike and Brooke had a private vow ceremony before their ceremony, and read each other their amazing vows in private, and in front of a really cool (and photogenic!) shed that Mike helped his dad custom build. Brooke also had a first look reveal with her Dad, and it was so sweet and heartfelt, we literally were tearing up behind the camera.

    Even though their bridal party was large, they were all very fun, and we could immediately tell that they each had a very special connection with the bride and groom. They were so fun, and we wanted to stay all night long and party along with them! Their families also blended perfectly, and everyone got along perfectly and it was all very easy to capture some great photos that we know they will all cherish.

    The carnival theme was very unique; it was a bright and colorful theme that was executed perfectly. It was bright and cheery every where you looked, from the bright colored flowers, to the pinwheel groomsmen boutineers, to the centerpieces (candy and colorful hand dipped mason jars), to the ceremony arbor ( a popcorn balloon arch.) The dance floor was awesome too; it was situated between 3 large circus tents and strung with a million tiny twinkling lights above it. They brought in games like skeet-ball, as well as a caricature artist, drawing guests portraits. They had a popcorn and candy bar too. And the food? Probably some of the best BBQ we’ve ever had. 

    We loved being Mike & Brooke’s Port Huron Backyard Wedding Photographers, and hope you enjoy this small preview into their fun and love-filled wedding day. If you’re in the market for a wedding photographer in Port Huron, Michigan, we’d love to chat!
