There is truly so much I could write about Ashley & Brock’s wedding day. They are some of the most down to earth, kind, God fearing, and in love people I have ever met. From the moment we met at their engagement session, I knew they were going to have the most lovely celebration of love.

They celebrated their day at the gorgeous Broadway Avenue in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The Broadway Avenue hosted their ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. This venue has some of the most elegant spaces I have ever seen in my career. Truly a lovely spot and fit Ashley’s vision perfectly.

I have to highlight their ceremony specifically. I was brought to tears with the way Brock looks at Ashley. He immediately began tearing up as she walked down the aisle. They exchanged such personal vows to each other which made the water works come even more! They even had Brock’s old roommates perform ‘I am who you say I am’ by Hillsong Worship as they worshipped before saying ‘I do’. It was such a precious way to show not only their love for each other, but the love Christ shares with us.
