The rustic charm of the Blue Dress Barn in Millburg, Michigan was the perfect setting for Amanda and Mike who chose Southwest Michigan for their October 24 nuptials. Resident photographic artists, Melissa and Jami, did a fantastic job photographing the event. The couple started the day with a beautiful and unique ceremony at the Veranda in St. Joseph. I must say, this was the first wedding we’ve ever done where the bride and groom chose the theme song from Peanuts for their recessional. Surprisingly, I don’t think Mike’s adoration for Snoopy had anything to do with their asking us to document the big day (I, too, am a huge Snoopy fan and named my childhood beagle of 17 years the same).
It was a pleasure working with Mandi Buckland of Element Event Design who helped pull all the details together for the big event. And hats off to CK Catering for a fantastic family-style meal that our photographers, Melissa and Jami, said was one of the best meals of the entire wedding season.
The bride wore a lovely blue dress which was, of course, quite fitting for an evening of celebration at the Blue Dress Barn.
It was a beautiful day that allowed us to visit two of our favorite St. Joseph area venues in the same day.
We are officially caught up on all of our 2010 weddings, so check back soon as we have a lot of great weddings to share from the past year.
