Allie and Louis chose to celebrate their marriage at a family lakeside home in Holland, Michigan—an intimate and meaningful setting. The whole experience was an unforgettable blend of family tradition, Jewish heritage, and the beauty of the Lake Michigan.

The romantic, botanical vibes tied in everything from the seating chart to the bar signs. They foraged pampas grass to flank their ceremony and created the golden frame themselves that wrapped it all up.

I love when both couples both take part in the planning process and have things they want to share with each other, and their guests. From the moment we had our first call and shared our Chicago loves (hello Mariano’s!) I knew that Cali and Shane’s Michigan Barn Wedding would be one of my favorites.
