Brandon + Maddie have been friends since they were thirteen years old. Despite life taking them in different directions over the years, including living in different states, their friendship continued to thrive, and grow into an ever deeper affection for one another. The soulmate kind. After spending some time with them at their home I quickly picked up that these guys were laid back and a lot of fun and their wedding day 100% reflected that. 

Their ceremony was held at one of the most beautiful cathedrals in Detroit, Sweetest Heart of Mary Roman Catholic Church. Followed by an outdoor cocktail hour and reception at Rooster Tail on the Detroit River. The deep rich colors of their details and floral design reminded me how much I do in fact love fall weddings. And Maddie’s flower crown? Obsessed. 

The evening ended with the most perfect golden light and a chance for just a few more epic portraits. Congratulations Brandon + Maddie, if only your eighth grade selves could see you now.
