Hail! Hail! To the most epic wedding in Ann Arbor, right in the middle of the University of Michigan. Erin and Kyle had everything, from soft romantic florals, to an underground disco-adorned afterparty.

Danielle’s green wedding suit may have been my favorite suit of the year. With the high colored floral shirt next to Loni’s sleek white jumpsuit, this couple delivered the looks for their wedding at the Downtown Market in Grand Rapids.
