Thinking back to Christa and Zach’s wedding day, I wish I could relive it a million times over. Their Henry Ford Museum wedding was so classic, elegant and sophisticated. It truly was such an amazing representation of who they are as a couple! Christa and Zach are truly are one of the kindest and most gracious couples you’ll ever meet. As soon as I walked into the hotel room where Christa was getting her makeup done, we both hugged and Christa handed me a gift… I’m telling you my brides are seriously SO sweet and thoughtful.

The day started off with bridal details, and not only did Christa do an amazing job with the color palette (just wait until you see it…so dreamy!!), but she included several family heirlooms. I just love that and it’s another example how incredibly thoughtful Christa is. She truly was the most joyful bride on her wedding day. As soon as she stepped into her dress, she couldn’t stop smiling and giggling!

Soon after, Christa and Zach shared a first look at the Clock Tower at the Henry Ford Museum. It’s one of the most beautiful places for a first look! There is a grand staircase and an amazing chandelier. The best part was that these two were able to share some alone time together, and we were able to capture so many portraits of the two of them which also included a Model T ride around Greenfield Village!

One of my favorite moments of the day was Christa and Zach’s first dance! The shared their first dance under an airplane, all while “Come Fly With Me” played in the background. Talk about an amazing first dance location! It was one of the highlights of the entire day. The dance floor was packed all night with all of Christa and Zach’s closest family and friends! It was the perfect way to end such an amazing day.

Christa and Zach, I couldn’t imagine spending last Saturday with anyone else! Being chosen to capture your wedding day was the absolute best, and you two were a photographers dream. I hope you have the best European honeymoon. Enjoy some of my favorites from your day!!
