Monique + Kevin were married yesterday in downtown Grand Rapids at The Cathedral of Saint Andrew. It was a gorgeous ceremony--complete with a full mass. The bridesmaids wore bright blue gowns with bright green sashes adorned with a crystal brooch, and the groomsmen work black tuxes with bright green ties--totally modern, fun and gorgeous!

The wedding party took time between ceremony + reception to do fun photos with their amazing photographer, Dusty Brown and his assistant, Amy. They all rode on the trolley and I know they had an awesome time! There are a few more photos on Dusty's blog.

The reception was at Thornapple Pointe Golf Course in their outdoor shelter, and Nance from Creative Events did an amazing job with the lights and lanterns on the ceiling. The three different centerpieces from Sunnyslope Floral were awesome. Monique did an amazing job on all the details--from the cocktail menus adorned with crystals, to the blue sashes + table runners by Chair Cover Collection. I got to work with Deep End Films and am looking forward to seeing their final product. It was a gorgeous wedding and I will share pro photos + video once they are ready.

Congrats Monique + Kevin--have a fabulous time on your honeymoon!
