Dreamy Michigan Beach Wedding by Harrison Studios

I think I've finally nailed down my favourite aesthetic and colour palette when it comes to weddings. Vintage hues, simplistic yet lovingly-created details, show-stopping gowns, handmade touches and adorable, clearly in love brides and grooms. Sigh. I came across this wedding via the ever fabulous Ruffled and when I read that the wedding was in Grand Rapids (where Apb is from) and that the newlyweds went to Michigan State which also happens to be my Alma matter, I knew I just had to share the gorgeous images by Laura and Ben Harrison of Harrison Studios, with you. Even though some of you have already seen this wedding on Pearls Events blog (I've seen a few of you guys in the comments section!) scroll on to soak it all in again. And let your heart melt, blogettes! P.S. That dress? It's a blush colour. And it's a Vera. And it's absolutely perfect. 

What an incredible memory to have of your first look. I get goosebumps when I see these photos.

Dear Liz and Chris, please have this photo made into a canvas. Yours Truly, Me.

I can't get over that dress. I hope you wear it to bed at night, Liz :)

Over at Ruffled, Liz talks about how her and Chris had little time to devote to planning their wedding because they were both full time students trying to concentrate on their studies. I can completely relate to how she must have felt because not only was I a full time student during Andrew and I's entire 2.5 year engagement but we were separated by 13 hours thus making any sort of planning endeavor entirely difficult. Regardless, Liz was a smarty pants and hired an event planner. And I am sure she is oh so thrilled with her decision; her wedding was incredible. Now on to a few details :)

I'm going to say it again; but that dress is unbelievable. And the cake. The cake is unbelievable.

And a little dancey-poo to wrap up the night. Head over to Ruffled to catch all the details about the day including a list of the fab vendors involved. And Liz if you are out there somewhere you have got to get a hold of me. I feel like maybe we sat in on the same classes at State thus making me that much cooler to sort of 'know' you. And I have searched facebook and bridal registries looking for you but could only find you on Twitter! Shoot me a message girlfriend! And everyone else, have a lovely Wednesday afternoon. Thank you all for your feedback yesterday and opinions. They were definitely needed and appreciated. xo
