This was pretty much a perfect day!

I got to photograph Sarah's sister Donelle's wedding last year, so it felt like we were all old friends!  Matt and Sarah are an absolutely adorable couple - and so in love, it was just a joy to be around them ;-) 

I started off the day getting ready with the girls at Sarah's parents' place.

Amber from Luigi Bruni did an awesome job with Sarah's makeup



SO PRETTY!!



helping dad with his bout...

And here's our handsome groom relaxing with his pals before the ceremony

the ceremony was held at the First Baptist Church in Dearborn - the same church Sarah's parents were married at! 







a quick stop at their townhouse for some photos with Tang the kitty!

and than it was off to the war memorial in Grosse Pointe

cheers!

a moment alone in the ballroom...

Mike Staff DJs did a great job of keeping the party going - but, is it ever *really* a party until the air guitars come out?  ;-)
