This beautifully rustic wedding of Shane and Holly took place on Holly’s parents private estate – wouldn’t you die to have access to a stunning venue like this!

Notes from the photographer… “..this seemingly destined couple said their vows to one another in the backyard of Holly’s father in East Grand Rapids, Michigan. The night could not have been more perfect–the weather was ideal, despite a storm looming hours before the ceremony. Since Holly and Shane were both live in Austin TX, they relied on family and friends to help them pull off the perfect night. Everyone pitched into to ensure that the day went off without a hitch and, at 4pm, the bride made a stunning entrance as her mother and father escorted her down the grassy aisle. What made this wedding so much fun were all the awesome homemade touches one being Holly’s beautiful headpiece which her Mom made, also the undeniable love and passion the bride and groom hold for one another. There was not a dry eye in the yard as Holly and Shane recited their self-written vows, and became husband and wife. What a magical night–thanks, Holly and Shane for letting me be a part of your story!” – Emily Alt Photography
