Candice and Travis had a clear vision for their wedding day: lush greenery, a unique cheese cake, and their loved ones celebrating at a grand event filled with cheer. Even though their plans shifted to the Packard Proving Grounds Historic Site just weeks before, they managed to create a day brimming with everything that truly mattered. Mission accomplished.
The photos tell their own story, but a few things stand out. I honestly think every wedding needs at least one “Zeffa” – their energy throughout the day was incredible. Candice looked stunning in her dress from Roma Sposa. The fact that she wore her mom’s wedding headpiece was a beautiful nod to her family, and it was an honor to capture her with their wedding photo in the background. Travis might have been a bit nervous beforehand, but you’d never know it from the photos. He clearly honored his family and close friends, and later surprised Candice with Trisha, the Michigan Wedding Painter, and Sonya, a breathtaking violinist. And that first look? He must’ve circled Candice a few times, just admiring his bride. Nothing could wipe the grins off their faces. The weather was perfect. They were finally married, and there was a designer mound of cheese waiting for them at the Packard Proving Grounds.
Congratulations, Travis and Candice! May your joy and smiles grow even bigger as you journey through life together. I’m thrilled to call you friends.
P.S. You absolutely nailed that first dance. I can’t wait to see the video when Aaron from Red Byrd shares his magic!
Thanks to an excellent team that helped make their vision incredible! It was an honor to be able to photograph your hard work!
