This Ann Arbor wedding was a celebration of love, friendship, and family – all wrapped up in a gorgeous summer day! Matthaei Botanical Gardens provided a stunning backdrop for the outdoor ceremony, with lush greenery and vibrant blooms creating a magical atmosphere. The bride and groom even incorporated subtle touches to honor cherished memories – their accessories held special meaning, a heartwarming tribute to loved ones who couldn't be there physically. But the real party started with their crew! This couple came with a squad – a fun-loving group of friends who brought the energy throughout the day. We took advantage of the beautiful scenery for portraits, venturing to the iconic U of M Law Quad for a classic college town vibe, then explored the hidden trails and vibrant gardens at Matthaei. The celebration continued seamlessly at Weber's Boutique Hotel, where the modern Atrium ballroom and warm hospitality ensured a night filled with laughter and dancing. With so much love and laughter surrounding them, and a willingness to embrace every photo opportunity, this wedding was a Ann Arbor photographer's dream come true!
