I was blessed enough to be there for the wedding of Kierstin and Adam. They wanted a small, intimate wedding. I specialize in small, intimate weddings, so this was a perfect fit from the moment we met.
My favorite part of this wedding isn’t featured on this blog because:
1. It was a secret.
2. If I show everyone, everyone will want it.
3. I don’t even know if I can legally show them.
4. I had to rely on the kindness of others to make it happen, and I don’t want that to be abused.
5. I don’t want others to copy this idea.
6. It was especially for Kierstin and Adam.
Those are six pretty good reasons why I won’t show a small portion of their wedding photos. If you’re dying to know what I’m talking about email me and I’ll tell you![]()
They were married on the campus of Western Michigan University. They actually both attended school there and it seemed like it was a thrill to return there for them.
I love this stunning photo right outside of the Chapel at WMU:
Since it was such an intimate wedding, it was great to get a little more connected with the guests. I loved that Adam’s sister-in-law was working the video:
That’s a sweet ring. Get it? Hehe.
After the ceremony (and our special stop along the way), the bride and groom were staying and dinning at the Henderson Castle. It has recently changed owners and I was a little worried about what would happen to it. It’s a great place for small events, and it would see a tragedy to waste the space. But the new owner has stepped up. The interior and exterior have stayed the same. Something tells me the new owner (who is a certified naturopath in addition to being a French chef) will make great use of the garden. The only distinguishable difference is the dinning area. It now accommodates several guests instead of the few it accommodated before. 

Look at how sweet they are together:
Love this shot!
I wanted them to stay there and look lovingly at each other longer, but that day had to move on.
Have you ever been to the rooftop of the castle? It’s worth it.
Congratulations!
