Katie and Christian held their wedding at Bay Pointe Inn in Shelbyville, Michigan back in December 2020. Given the COVID restrictions, the wedding guests were limited to only family members but that didn’t stop Katie from having an elegant wedding! Their wedding colors were white with some green accents and it turned out beautifully.

The couple rented out the entire boathouse by the lake at Bay Pointe Inn but because it was raining all day, we stayed mostly indoors.

While the ladies finished getting ready, I snuck downstairs to snap some photos of Christian and the guys:

Katie and Christian’s first look:

The ceremony space felt very intimate with the fireplace in the background.

A candlelit dinner:

I have to admit, the best man and maid of honor speeches made me laugh and cry at the same time. You could tell how strong the bond was between Katie and Christian and how much they were loved by their families. It was such a beautiful day that I almost didn’t want to leave the wedding!
