Ruby Tree Farm Wedding Photography Team | Dani & Dan

Dan and Danielle were married on Saturday, September 30, 2017 at the gorgeous Ruby Lodge Rental in Ruby, Michigan. You may remember them from their engagement session that we featured on the blog in the early summer. We were absolutely thrilled to spend the day being their Ruby Tree Farm Wedding Photography Team, and loved documenting their special day and moments.

One simply set foot into the venue, and all of Dani’s hard work and love was so evident, every where you looked. She thought of everything, and her theme was seriously stunning to see in person. We’re a tad bit obsessed with the deep reds, mixed with the rustic wooden touches and the ultra-glam and sparkly rose gold sequins. Dan’s daughter Kyla was a big part of the day, as well, acting as a wonderful flower girl (we loved her look of concentration walking down the aisle!) and then together, they shared a special father/daughter dance to My Girl by The Temptations that may (or may not?) have rendered us wiping a stray tear or two away from behind our cameras. (Hey, we have feelings too, ok?!)

One of the trio of photographers here at Mulberry & Sage was actually in the bridal party, so it was a great time to spend the day blending friendship, and working together to get some candid and awesome shots throughout the day. We love photographing at the Ruby Tree Farm because you don’t even have to leave the property during the portrait session; there are so many amazing locations and spots to photograph, and towards the end of their portrait time, the sun was beautifully peeking out behind the large pine trees, and it (along with Dani) was breathtakingly beautiful.

We hope you love this small glimpse into Dani and Dan’s wedding day where Mulberry & Sage Photography was their Ruby Tree Farm Wedding Photography Team. If you’re engaged and looking for a professional wedding photography team, we’d love to chat. hello@mulberryandsage.com

Black River Country Club Wedding Photographer | Danielle & Mike

Back in July, we had the opportunity to hang out with Mike and Danielle, and be their Black River Country Club wedding photographer for the day. We have to start out by saying that the day was seriously the most perfect and quintessential summer time day for Eastern Michigan. It was in the low 70’s, and beautifully sunny, with a slight breeze coming off the river. We couldn’t have dreamed up a more beautiful day, weather wise, and also for the wedding.

Black River Country Club was the perfect venue fit for their wedding theme, which was Disney inspired. Danielle was so creative, and hid Mickey Mouse throughout her bouquet, cake, tables, ring boxes…seriously every where. Mike had his own theme as well; super villains. They were mildly obsessed with carrying on their own unique theme, and it gave for lots of funny photos and candid moments captured.

Their officiant was one of Mike’s best friend, who flew in from overseas (on a 16 hour flight) and he performed the ceremony on absolutely no sleep. The ceremony ended up being perfect, and knowing their officiant was a super special memory that they’ll have forever.

The Black River Country Club was very kind, and let us borrow some golf carts to use for the day, so we could really explore their beautiful property and utilize it fully for some stunning photos. We loved riding around, and had some hysterical moments with the golf carts, as well as some semi-reckless driving. In fact, at one point, all the villain groomsmen grabbed Mike, shoved him in a golf cart, and sped away. It was a pretty funny kidnapping. (Don’t worry, they brought him back in one piece.)

We hope you love this small preview into Mike & Danielle’s Black River Country Club wedding.

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.

Ruby Lodge Wedding | Natasha & Dan

We were thrilled when Natasha contacted us back in 2016 to photograph her Ruby Lodge wedding in Ruby, Michigan. Courtney has known Natasha since she was four years old; they are old family friends.

Every detail in Natasha and Dan’s wedding was spot-on and beautiful. She recently opened up her very own floral crown business, so naturally her handmade floral crowns were on display and a main part in her wardrobe selection. She actually had five different dress choices, and left it up to her bridesmaids and family to help her narrow down her dress choice on the morning of. (And, we must say, her choices were stellar.)

As soon as she met Dan, everyone immediately knew that he was her soulmate. He complimented every single aspect of her life, and embraced Teagan, Natasha’s 2 year old daughter, as his own. He loves her so much, he even wrote a special part into their wedding day, where he presented Teagan with her very own ring to match theirs.

We love photographing weddings at Ruby Lodge. It feels like you’re stepping into another area, and has almost a Northern-Michigan feel, between the massive pine trees and the 40 acre inland lake ceremony location. We also love how many beautiful locations there are to choose from when photographing there, from the rustic green barn, to the tree-lined road.

The reception was very fun; their first dance was to Say You Won’t Let Go by James Arthur. It was perfect for Natasha and Dan, and Dan even broke out into song at one point, singing along sweetly. Teagan even danced alongside them, and we don’t think there was a single dry eye in the house. It really resonated with us, because it was a very comforting song, and really made it feel like he was going to take care of his girls forever.

Natasha & Dan, thank you for booking Mulberry & Sage Photography to be your Ruby Lodge Wedding photographer. We love being professional Port Huron wedding photographers, and can’t wait to discuss your special wedding day photography needs.
