A Michigan wedding full of love and umbrellas… prepare yourselves to smile. If you have a wedding dress with lots of buttons, a crochet hook will save the day. Also be sure to pack one in your overnight bag… they’re just as handy for un-doing the buttons. Loved their yellow ties. Her ring was absolutely beautiful! Kimberly and Jason’s rain back-up plan? UMBRELLAS! Mike, AKA Mr. Always Prepared, has like 20 umbrellas that he brings along whenever there’s a chance for rain… thank goodness he brought them… I think that half of the umbrellas that you see here were ours. Mike to the rescuuuuue!Mike’s favorite It really was the sweeeeetest ceremony!Kimberly, I loved your hair! For anyone who’s been reading this blog for any length of time you know that I love me a hair-down bride. They wanted pics with their pups (naturally!)… but the time the pups were designated to be there for pics we were in the midst of a full-on thunderstorm. The little guy on the left is clearly not a fan!My favorite I’m obsessed with her bouquet! I loooove me some dahliaaaaas!When we arrived at the reception hall the sun miraculously made an appearance! We pounced!Hey Kimberly, nice triceps. Your arms are giving Michelle Obama a run for her money!First dance time HA!A pizza truck showed up late… GENIUS! Kimberly with her brother singing… uhm… was it Journey?
