Jessica + Tom
Wedding pictures at the Diamond Center Suburban Collection in Novi, by Kellie Saunders and her team of top wedding photographers in MI.
Creating unique Michigan wedding pictures on December 31st is not always easy. Michigan can be oh-so cold, blow you away windy and can get pretty darn slushy at this time of the year. I love a good challenge and this is why I love being a wedding photographer! Couples like Jessica and Tom make my job fun and keep me on my toes! It might get cold, it might get windy, it might even be slushy - but you wouldn't know it by looking at their wedding pictures.
They had the most fantastic New Year's Eve Celebration ever at the Diamond Center and Suburban Collection! Let me back up and first tell you all about the ceremony. It was a beautiful traditional Catholic Mass at St. Patrick's of White Lake, MI, where my team of Michigan's best wedding photographers were able to capture some stunning images to help Jessica and Tom remember their big day. This fantastic couple then braved the bitter bitter cold as we stopped by Tom's firehouse for a few portraits. Tom wanted a few wedding pictures with his fire truck and we were more than happy to oblige. These two were so amazing you couldn't even tell they were freezing their toes off! If you look at some of the images below, the sun came out for a brief moment so we had Jessica and Tom head over to the grassy area by the firehouse. Because they trusted us - we were able to capture a few frames that truly look like it was a warm summer's day. Those are some of my favorite portraits from their wedding day.
We had plans to go to downtown Milford for photos, but let's face it - New Years Eve was just plain freezing. Sometimes on wedding days, plans change because of weather or whatnot. So from the firehouse we headed to the Diamond Center for a wedding reception celebration that started both the new year, and this couple's new life as Mr. and Mrs. together off right! Congratulations Jessica and Tom! Here are some of my favorite images from your New Year's Eve wedding.
The aisle at St. Patrick's of White Lake was beautifully decorated for Jessica and Tom's nuptials.
We took a few moments to capture some portaits of the bride and groom in St. Patrick's of White Lake's lobby.
Jessica's hand made bouquet with brooches.
Having fun at Tom's firehouse with pictures of the bride and groom with the firetruck!
And who doesn't love a little sun on New Years Eve in this cold state of Michigan?
I can't even tell that they are freezing. Can you?
Jessica and Tom decorated their room to the 9's for New Years Eve!
These are some of my favorite New Year's Eve themed centerpieces of all time!
