A beautiful day, a gorgeous venue, friendship, family, and fun made this June wedding one to remember! The perfectly landscaped grounds at Twin Gables are complimented by elegant ivory chiffon draping inside the reception area. With so much space to work with, your party can have up to 250 guests, making this one of the premier event centers for big family gatherings in Southwest Michigan!

Kristina and Abijith opted for a first look where they read their vows to one another privately to keep the wedding ceremony short-and-sweet. The moment started with lots of fun but ended with heartfelt tears of joy.

Next up, some portraits, where Kristina used a genius inspiration to stay cool during the mid-day heat!

See for yourself the lovely sheer curtains that set off the light pine wood of Twin Gables! I love this cake too!

After the grand announcement, Kristina and Abijith led off with a first dance, followed by a Mother/Son dance and a Mother/Daughter dance for Kristina. A champagne toast was our next photo-op. Then, the shoe game, and out for golden hour to take advantage of the fountain and the warm western light while the guests danced to music spun by DJ Andre Taylor, who did a fabulous job blending American/Western and East Asian/Indian popular songs. Country and Bollywood must’ve been a challenge, but he rose to the occasion and didn’t miss a beat!

We closed the evening with a sparkler exit! A perfect ending to a wonderful mid-summer dream wedding!
