Kristin + Andy’s Super Unconvential, Totally Rad Wedding Extravaganza~!

admin — Mon, 21 Sep 2009 15:53:39 +0000

DJ – Robert Taylor

This wedding was such a breathe of fresh air. New, unique and unconventional venues made it a day to remember~!

Kristins dress is hands down my ALL time favorite gown EVER. I love it SO much.

This was also a very DIY wedding, which I love and respect so much. They made ALL of the flowers (bouquets, boutonnieres, ceremony pieces and centerpieces) by hand out of coffee filters~! They were beautiful. And Kristins sister made the cakes by hand as well.

The ceremony was on the roof of the Park Shelton condos and had such amazing views.

The reception was held at the Detroit Breakfast Club which is an incredibly hip and delicious breakfast restaurant on Woodward downtown. Breakfast for dinner is the coolest thing you can do at your reception in my opinion. More of you should do this. I had the stuffed french toast and Nate had the steak and eggs~! Yummmm.

Coolest wall ever. The lobby of the Marriot Ren Cen is the best place on earth:

Each bridesmaid got to wear a different dress. There is no situation where this isn’t a good idea. Each girl got to express her own personality and actually be comfortable in the dress. My favs were (from the left) the 3rd + 5th bridesmaid dress:

Can you even believe that these flowers are coffee filters:!

Best shot of the year? Perhaps:

DJ Robert Taylor, and his fashionable tux, did a wonderful job, as usual:

I love family reactions to toasts:

Each table was named after a pooch that was available for adoption or had already been adopted!:

ceremony + reception : Henry Ford Museum

DJ : Mary Ann Ross

Florist : Blumz

Rebecca + Wes are textbook clients for mod4. They are everything we want in a couple. So cool, easy going, down to earth, sane and so much fun~!

The entire day was so easy because they did not let their wedding become stressful. Which I recommend.

I love this shot of Rebecca getting sassy in the theatre:

There’s something about the contrast of tattoos and wedding gowns that I can’t get enough of:

Beautiful ceremony in the beautiful courtyard:

The awesome dance floor with a giant plane hanging over it:

One of the most unique reception rooms in our state:

Rad cake (just because it’s a wedding cake, doesn’t mean it has to be white!):

Do you love Etsy as much as I do? Do you not know what Etsy is? Etsy is an online community of tons and tons of people from all over the world, selling you their incredible and unique hand made goods. They have everything from jewelery to clothes to food to ceramics. I though I’d post about some of my favorite weddingy stuff that I found on Etsy! I did not take any of these photos. For photo credits, view the listings.

click below to see my finds!

This amazing tulle skirt from seller Allie J Designs is stunning! She writes in her listing that photographers love this skirt, and she is right! This would SO much to fun to photograph! And what a great idea to purchase it for a portrait session after the wedding day, like our Wear the Dress sessions!

Or how about these awesome rings from seller Shade Jewelery!? This one is my fav (if anyone’s looking for a gift for me)!

Seller Beadiful Things has some beautiful jewelery that would lend itself well to weddings. I particularly like this hair pin (only $9.00!)

Lastly, a friend of ours, Sherri, has a shop, seller name Sparkle Pants, with these super awesome paper flowers made from romance novel pages! These would make a killer bouquet, centerpiece, gift, ect…

(and we did take this photo!)
