Mission Point Resort Wedding | Mackinac Island, MI

Congratulations Abigail and Jeremy! You guys ROCK. What a wonderful Wedding with family and close friends in an intimate location like the gazebo at Mission Point Resort on Mackinac Island, Michigan.

Planning a Wedding on Mackinac Island, Michigan?

The afternoon Wedding ceremony at the Gazebo at Mission Point Resort on Mackinac Island was beautifully placed inside the circle of flowers. The skies were clear and it was a fabulous day in Michigan. The bride was wearing a beautiful white wedding dress by Oleg Cassini.

The bride and groom had their flowers completed by Weber’s Floral and Gift. The bride and groom took a 1.5 hour horse drawn carriage ride around Mackinac Island with Me following, and leading, on my bike. The Wedding was catered by Mission Point Resort on the outdoor patio near the bocce ball court. The bride and groom played crochet and bocce ball. There was a cocktail hour under the tent which was set up for the occasion. Bella e Dolce completed six custom cakes for the Mackinac Wedding tables. They were beautiful and delicious!

Friday I was blessed again to spend the afternoon on Mackinac Island, Michigan for a Wedding at The Inn at Stonecliffe. Amy and Charlie are two cool cats! We had a great time together. Amy is an absolute beauty, and Charlie is a handsome lad as well.

When I arrived to the Wedding the clouds were thick and the overcast and it looked like rain. But, oh no, my friend, the clouds cleared and Amy and Charlie’s beautiful smile beamed during the day.

The couple is from Chicago, Illinois and planned this beautiful destination wedding on Mackinac Island, Michigan. Amy had an idea in her head what she wanted on her Wedding day and her matron of honor, Tara, from Invitations by Design, helped her dream come true. Tara’s designs and over-the-top details added that special touch to Amy and Charlie’s Wedding day. You can see a bunch of the products that Tara produced in the slideshows below. Anything on paper Tara did and will do for you too. Call her and let her design your invitations, programs, signs, speech cards, seating chart, menus, thank yous, or anything you can imagine.

Little Stone Church Wedding | Mackinac Island | Mission Point Resort

Mackinac Island Wedding at Little Stone Church

Kristin and Andrew are Married! They had originally planned on 100 people or less and when they said they were getting married on beautiful Mackinac Island the plans changed quickly, everyone wanted to come. The end result…180 guests! All the people added a little flair to the day and it brightened up the rainy skies.

It was great to see a family and a group of friends come together to celebrate after a tragic loss of a father. What a whirlwind this family has been through but they made the day shine! Thank you for being so willing to have fun and experiment even with the on and off rain and wet grounds.

The Wedding was at The Little Stone Church on Mackinac Island, Michigan, a Michigan Historic site, at 2pm with the reception following at Mission Point Resort on Mackinac Island, Michigan.
