We are so excited to showcase Anna and Kevin’s special wedding day on the blog, from when they hired Mulberry & Sage to be their Port Huron City Flats Wedding Photographer team for the day. We chatted with the two of them initially over the phone, because the two of them currently live in Florida. They met down there, but the fact that they were both from small midwest towns was a common bond that they loved about each other. Anna is from a small town in Wisconsin, and Kevin is from Port Huron, Michigan. His connection and roots run deep to the area, and we were thrilled to swap stories f the past of mutual friends (like our fellow downtown-business-owners, Kate, from Kate’s Downtown and Kati from Blossoming Affair.) He also grew up attending the historic Grace Episcopal Church, and their wedding ceremony there was important to the two of them, and since the church is so beautiful and historic, we were also thrilled.
We were also so excited to work with our favorite videographer for the day, Ackerman & Co. Kristin is such fun to work alongside, and the three of us really mesh well and have a fun friendship outside of the wedding day, so that makes it even better and more natural for everyone involved. Go check out the highlight film she created of Anna & Kevin’s day by clicking here.
Anna and Kevin’s wedding also marks our first official time photographing inside the newly renovated City Flats Hotel in Port Huron. It used to be the old Michigan National Bank, and has sat empty and abandoned for the past 10+ years. The location is stunning, and locals have always thought how sad it was that nothing was there, because it’s directly on the Black River, and has views of the beautiful St. Clair River, as well. CityFlatsHotel came in and decided to turn the old bank into a luxurious Ballroom on the bottom, and build some posh boutique style hotel rooms on the upper levels. The ballroom officially opened in the early summer of 2019, and we were anxiously waiting our turn to get inside and see it for ourselves. It’s seriously stunning, and we can’t wait to photograph there more often and show off our beautiful downtown Port Huron to everyone who is visiting the area. Anna and Kevin incorporated more charm into their day by cruising around between their ceremony and reception in the historic trolley, and swinging by the Blue Water Bridge for some photo ops before their epic and fiery entrance into their reception.
We hope you love this peek into when Mulberry & Sage was their Port Huron City Flats Wedding Photographer. If you’re looking for a Port Huron wedding photographer, we would love to hang out, show you our very own downtown Port Huron photography studio, and get to know you!

We met Taylor in the early spring because she was searching for a Brown City wedding photographer to document her marriage to her best friend and fiancee, Zack. She actually had previously booked a different photographer, who ended up accidentally double-booking the date, and we happened to have her exact date open, and are also semi-local to the Brown City area. We love being Sanilac County wedding photographers, and since we both live in the country anyways, Brown City is only about a 45 minute commute through {approximately} a billion corn fields away from us.
