Julie + Chris are two of the most adorable, kind, fun, open and in love people we have ever worked with. I hope that they will be in our lives for a long time.

Their wedding was unique in SO many ways~! Which is what every wedding should be, but they really made it their own. Chris is an illustrator for Star Wars and Julie is a creative director for an ad agency, so needless to say, they are creative.

Their were two VERY VERY unique (unique like we will never ever see  them again at a wedding) items at this wedding. The first being the 2 actual Stormtroopers. The 2 Stormtroopers greeted guests as they arrived at the museum and mingled with them at the cocktail hour. Amazing. The second was the grooms cake, which you’ll see later in this post.

Yummy. So yummy:

We have had some great luck with couples having awesome footwear. Check out Julies rad purple shoes and Chris’s wood grain (aka faux bois) socks:

They just laughed and enjoyed each other all day long:

Best reception venue in Detroit? Maybe.:

The uber talented (and semi famous) Courtney of Cake Nouveau made the regular cake (you’ve seen her on the Food Network and TLC):

OK. Here it is. The Grooms cake. It is from Star Wars. It’s called a Taun Taun. I guess that Luke got cold and this Taun Taun was dead (or he killed it?) so he slept in it’s ripped open belly. Or something like that. Anyways, it was the raddest cake ever and it really grossed people out~! It was amazing:

Annie + Brian are one of our out-of-town couples. We did not get a chance to do an engagement session with them, but this time, it didn’t matter~! They are an amazingly stylish and outgoing couple. The stars must have aligned this day because I had a very hard time narrowing down the choices here, so enjoy an extra large blog post~!
