I had the absolute honor of documenting Olivia and Andrew’s Intimate Michigan Wedding. From the beginning, the day felt slow and intentional, like time had softened just for them. They got ready just a few doors apart. The energy was calm, full of quiet excitement and deep breaths. There was no rushing, only happy tears and steady smiles as the day began to unfold.
Their ceremony took place inside a beautiful church filled with soft light and quiet reverence. It was simple and full of meaning. Everything about it felt rooted and real. I stayed close, watching for the small in between moments. Olivia reached for Andrew’s hand without thinking. Their people stood nearby, holding space with full hearts. You could tell this day was not just about celebration. It was about choosing each other, fully and forever.
A Celebration Carried by Love
As the evening turned to music and movement, the joy became even more visible. I kept catching soft laughter, long hugs, and glances that said everything. These unscripted moments are what I always chase. They are what make each wedding feel honest. When I left Olivia and Andrew’s Intimate Michigan Wedding, my memory cards were full, but so was my heart. There is nothing better than telling a story that already knows how to speak for itself.
One of my favorite memories from the night came just after the first dance. Olivia kicked off her shoes and Andrew took her hand as they wandered toward the edge of the reception tent. They didn’t say much, just stood there side by side, watching their friends sway beneath the lights. It was quiet, fleeting, and perfect. That’s the kind of love they have, the kind that doesn’t need to perform to be felt.
