Celine and Joseph | 10.10.15 | Grand Rapids Public Museum Wedding

Celine and Joseph were married at the beautiful Saint Andrew’s Cathedral in downtown Grand Rapids this past fall. It was a gorgeous blue sky day. Their reception was held at the Grand Rapids Public Museum, it was my first Grand Rapids Public Museum wedding and I loved it! Celine and Joseph were a delight to work with, they are funny and sweet together, and they have wonderful style (that never hurts :)). We started the day at Coiffeteria Salon in East Grand Rapids, then headed to the Cathedral. After the ceremony we got a little hung up in Artprize traffic but we had a fun time on the bus waiting then headed to Riverside Park and a special secret location of mine (hehehe) for portraits. I love the combination of locations we used, their collection of portraits is one of my favorites from the year. I could go on and on about the Museum, if your here at this post and considering this location let me say a Grand Rapids Public Museum wedding is awesome and your guests have so much fun there! And if you need a photographer pick me pick me! 🙂 Here are a few of my favorites from their day, many of which were captured by the talented Tim Kamppinen who was my second shooter for the day.
