    Winter Wedding Vos Chapel | St. George Center | Grand Rapids, MI

    Winter Wedding in Grand Rapids ~ Dawn & Nate

    Kuyper College Vos Chapel | St. George Center

    Saturday could not have been a more beautiful day to have a winter Wedding in Grand Rapids, Michigan.  Dawn and Nate had a beautiful day planned for about 150 of their closest family and friends.  With blue skies and temps in the 20s, we were able to get beautiful outdoor images and the snow decorated the trees like a winter wonderland.

    Thank you to Deb and Dave for having me as the Wedding Photographer.  I was honored to be part of Dawn and Nate’s Wedding day!

    The ladies were at the Panopoulos Salon in Grand Rapids, Michigan early getting their hair done.  The day began around noon for me with getting ready images, details, flowers, and locations images.  The bride and groom took time to have lunch and relax before getting into their dress and tuxedo.  The bride and groom were not interested in getting ready images so I spent time focusing on family and friends who were a part of the day while they prepared.

    Vos Chapel is a wonderful location for a Wedding.  The decorations are always beautiful and a few flowers makes this place perfect.  There is a lot of light in the location and it can hold up to 200 people. The gentle slope in the Chapel makes for eye level images from the rear of the Wedding Chapel.

    The Wedding Colors were hunter green with accents of orange and silver.  The Wedding theme was a Winter Wedding theme.  The orange flowers were very well done by Shelly’s Designs.  Shelly was really easy to work with during the day and her flowers were gorgeous!  Here is Shelly’s contact information:

    The Wedding Ceremony was beautiful.  A friend of the couple did the Wedding videography. The Bride’s Grandfather was the officiant and he was a hoot.  He made some jokes and had a great time marrying the couple.  I was told that he was 86 which is probably one of the oldest officiant that I have worked along side.

    Grand Rapids Theological Seminary | Grand Rapids, Michigan Blue Bridge

    On the way to the Wedding Ceremony at St. George Banquet and Conference Center in Grand Rapids, Michigan we made quick stops at the Puritan Theological Seminary on Leonard Street and the Blue Bridge in Downtown Grand Rapids, MI for some Wedding party images in the Winter weather.  Even having a mild Winter day was still bitter cold when not moving.  I kept the Wedding party in motion and make quick images to guard against cold face images.  The blue bridge still had the large picnic table on top of it from the Art Prize show.  It was a unique touch.
