Brooklyn Michigan Resort Wedding – Melinda and Rick
Melinda and Rick were married on June 7, 2014 at Sauk Valley Resort in the Irish Hills of Brooklyn, Michigan. The facility is best known for having sports and band camps in the summer and only allows a few weddings and events each year. The resort is only a mile away from Michigan International Speedway. The wooded landscape and private lake provided a beautiful backdrop for Melinda and Rick’s formal wedding photos.
My day started with the guys getting haircuts and shaves at Roosters in Toledo. Then I drove to Gemini Salon and Day Spa in Chelsea, Michigan to photograph the girls getting ready.
Then we headed to Brooklyn and the resort where the girls finished getting ready. While I was waiting on them, I was able to capture a some of the wedding reception details and some of the pre-wedding photos.
The mother of the bride made the flower girls dresses, and the Weddings Wrap Infinity convertible bridesmaids dresses were found on Etsy.
Melinda and Rick chose to do First Look photos on the balcony of the Brooklyn resort.
This allowed us to be able to do a few of the wedding party photos before the ceremony. And we finished taking them after the wedding. We took a few more down by the lake after dinner.
After the bride and groom’s first dance, everyone danced the night away with Doug Bermick of Professional Sounds.
The groom’s brother was given a special tribute for his military service.
For added fun, we had our Kurt’s Kustom Keepsakes green screen photo booth there for all of the wedding guests to enjoy. They even made a scrapbook for the bride and groom with their pictures.
Congratulations Melinda and Rick, and good luck with all of your future endeavors.
