The Pearls Events team traveled to Sault Saint Marie (a first for us!) for Jessica & Mike's backyard barn wedding. The weather on their big day was nothing less than pure Northern Michigan perfection and the laid-back bride and groom were such a joy to work with!

The ceremony and celebration took place at Mike's family's farm. Pearls Events spent all morning setting tables, coordinating vendor arrivals and making sure every last detail was in place. Jessica & Mike decided to do a "First Look" with family photos immediately following. The whole day was stress-free and relaxing, just what Jessica & Mike wanted!

Guests arrived mid-afternoon and walked about a 1/4 mile down a grassy path to the ceremony site. The ceremony was short and sweet, officiated by a close friend of the couple. After Jessica & Mike said I do, guests made their way back toward the house to a tented reception complete with farm tables (thanks, Fancy Fray!), delicate string lighting and blue Spatterware mugs from Tablescapes at each place setting. The bride & groom enjoyed a casual BBQ meal and homemade pies with their closest family and friends before dancing the night away in the most perfect barn ever imagined!

Jessica & Mike - Thank-you for inviting us to be a part of your special day. You and your families were so welcoming and sweet! Wishing you lots of love and happiness!
