CHRISTMAS-THEMED WEDDING GRAND HAVEN, MI

It’s the most wonderful time of the year – to have a Christmas-themed wedding! Bridal couple, Kaitlyn and Dustyn’s wedding day love story is made extra special with all their Christmas touches. Located in downtown Grand Haven, Michigan, this elegant winter wedding was everything the bridal couple dreamed it would be.

Kaitlyn and Dustyn chose a very picturesque church for their ceremony and even had a gingerbread house replica of the church at their reception. Spring Lake Country Club was the bride and groom’s choice for the outstanding reception.

Grand Haven has superb venues offering indoor and outdoor wedding options. I have had the privilege of doing many wedding films in this location. Grand Haven’s main attraction is its landscape. Picturesque parks, dense forests and the charm of downtown Grand Haven with all its history and year-long events. No matter what season of the year, Grand Haven, Michigan is an excellent wedding destination.

Bride & Groom Details

Kaitlyn and Dustyn met in high school and worked at Craig’s Cruisers together. Dustyn had noticed Kaitlyn and so he slid into her DMs. Kaitlyn took her time in going out on a date with Dustyn, but eventually his persistency paid off. Something Kaitlyn really admires about Dustyn is his persistence. Kaitlyn stayed by his side every day after an accident immobilised him for a few months and he knew that she was the one for him. Faith and love are the centre of Kaitlyn and Dustyn’s relationship. What a beautiful love story that I had the absolute pleasure to film.

Kaitlyn looked beautiful in her V-neck fairy-tale wedding dress. Embroidered bodice with pearls, lace and sequins flowing down onto her full, floor length skirt. Kaitlyn accessorised with long diamond earrings and a pearl bracelet. On her feet she wore sparkling silver heels. A chapel length veil covered her long, curled hair, swept to one side with a diamante hair clip.

Large white florals filled her bouquet tied up with a black, velvet ribbon. She wore a pure white, mid-length fur jacket for the outdoor photoshoot. 8 beautiful bridesmaids wore black, velvet floor length dresses. They kept warm with a classic short white fur jacket. Three lovely flower girls dressed in white, completed this photogenic bridal party.

Dustyn wore a black suit, white dress shirt and black bow tie. His groomsmen wore the same and he had a page boy to complete his party.
