Courtney and David ended up booking me only a couple weeks before their wedding. They had a ton of wonderful DIY details that they needed set up and realized they didn't want to do it themselves the morning of their wedding. I am so lucky that Jess from Mod4 sent them my way. This couple was so much fun. I totally "got" them and felt like I had known them for a long time. I was so excited that I was able to help them bring their vision to life on their wedding day.
The ceremony was held in a tent and I hung 40 tissue paper puffs and some strands of flowers that C+D made themselves. David had proposed to Courtney with a GIANT engagement ring (which is gorgeous... you will see it in Epic Motion's same day edit) and one of the groomsmen carried it down the aisle. After the ceremony the guests were treated to donuts and cider from the Franklin Cider Mill (who knew they delivered!?).
We headed up to Pontiac at a really cool venue called the Crofoot. The staff there is fantastic and I enjoyed working with them. Because C+D had made their own centerpieces, cocktail area decor, card box, escort cards, and even little cut out people for the bathrooms.... I had a lot to set up! It was so fun, I loved every second of it. The amount of DIY reminded me of my own wedding =) I heard a ton of guests commented on how wonderful it was that C+D had injected their personality into everything. Weddings like this are so much more personal and special.... it definitely gives guests (and vendors!) the warm fuzzies.
Check out some of the pictures I took below. I will upload some more to our Facebook albums.... plus Epic Motion and Mod4 will have their incredibly fabulous work up soon for you to enjoy.

Thank you Courtney and David for being such an incredible couple to work with. I truly enjoyed meeting you and I sincerely hope that we can stay in touch (plus I may have to stop by to meet your chickens!!). ♥♥Shelly
