TRADITIONAL CATHOLIC WEDDING CEREMONY AT SACRED HEART IN BLOOMFIELD HILLS

What a beautiful day and what a beautiful couple! Dan and Angelina are two souls that were meant to be together. I know I say that about all my couples. I like to think that every single one of my couples were born to be together, but with Dan and Angelina, I felt that they must have known each other in another place and time (if you believe that kind of stuff that is).

Dan is a local radio personality and Angelina a Doctor. When I think of them as a couple, the words that come to mind are, kind, caring, loving, funny and boy are they funny! We laughed our way through their engagement session which you can see here: ENGAGEMENT SESSION and we laughed our way through their wedding photos as well. Their friends and family were just like them, fun and loving as well!

Their wedding day went off without a hitch, even if we had a little bit of rain. They were married at the Academy of the Sacred Heart in Bloomfield Hills. I really absolutely adore shooting at that church. It's not only gorgeous but the grounds are fantastic for wedding portraits after ceremonies. Their bridal room is classic and stately - see for yourself below. Simply stunning! After their nuptials the bridal party played a little football (yes the whole bridal party), and then we were off to Detroit for wedding portraits at the Detroit Institute of Arts and the Detroit Public Library. Dionne, my sidekick for the day and I rode in the party bus with the bridal party and that's when we discovered how much fun they are!

Once we arrived at the Regency Manor for their reception we knew everyone was ready to rock and roll! And rock and roll they did. There are always little things you learn about a couple on their wedding day that you never knew before. One of those things was that Dan's parents were dance instructors - so Dan grew up knowing how to cut a rug! When he danced with Angelina, the room lit up. What a wonderful first dance!

Congrats to Dan and Angelina! May you have all the happiness in the world!
