Michaela and Beckie’s wedding at The Pavilion on Crystal Lake was nothing short of perfect! We started off the day with details (just like always!) and captured their stunning invitation suite accented by white and pastel florals.
The on-property cottage was the perfect location for their getting ready photos, with a beautiful floral-lined porch where we took getting ready photos and bridal portraits. The weather was warm paired with a bit of cloud coverage, which set the perfect backdrop for their outdoor ceremony in front of the gazebo on the property. We had such a beautiful day capturing their love and can’t wait to be back to the Pavilion on Crystal Lake soon!
