Emily & Jordan | Backyard Lakeside Wedding

Emily and Jordan’s wedding changed a bit since our first meeting but I think it’s safe to say their plan b was perfect. Jordan’s family has a gorgeous lakeside home that they held their event at. Love in the time of COVID is yielding many backyard intimate weddings and I am here for it! It was the most beautiful night to celebrate this lovely couple. Hope you enjoy their preview!

Congrats Emily and Jordan! Such an honor to be a part of your wonderful day!

West Michigan born and raised. I call Grand Rapids home but I make many excuses to be lakeside. I will always be trying to make you laugh. It's my way.
