Mackinac Island Wedding Photography | Mackinac Island Wedding | Planning a Mackinac Island Wedding
Customers have asked me, “Why have a wedding on Mackinac Island in Michigan?” My answer to the question is where can you find a destination wedding location in the United States that has the feel of a vacation/resort/remote island yet still has all the conveniences of everyday life, except motorized vehicles, and that is a bonus. There is a lot to do on Mackinac Island and you can go to places on the island that are remote and you won’t see a soul either. You have the choice to make your Mackinac Island stay how you would like it.
Mackinac Island is safe. Many people don’t even lock up their bikes, or for that matter, take their personal items out of their baskets. Don’t get me wrong, there are thieves anywhere so you have to be careful but Mackinac Island residents watch out for each other.
Carriage rides, bikes, rollerblades, skateboards, and any non-motorized vehicle is the norm on Mackinac Island. You get fantastic carriage images by using one of the fine Mackinac Island Carriage companies.
If you like beaches, there are a few. Not as many as your caribbean islands but you can find a fare share. Pets are allowed on the island with a leash and there are pet friendly spots to stay. Fly in to the island or take the ferry across from St. Ignace or Mackinac City.
The resorts, hotels, Bed and Breakfasts, and rental houses are fantastic and really have the feeling of destination wedding without the hassle of all of the flying, language differences, passports, and more. You are always less than 20 minutes from the mainland of Michigan.
The bottom line is that Mackinac Island is a convenient location for your wedding. You have everything that you would ever want on the island yet you can take advantage of all of it or none. You make the decisions and customize your wedding on Mackinac Island.
