My last wedding of 2018 was late November and it ended up being such a beautiful day! The sun came out and and although it was a bit chilly, it definitely provided warmth throughout the day. I started with the bride getting ready at her parents home and the house was filled with friends and family. There was a busy but calm hum around the place as everyone was getting ready for the day.
Riemke and Mike chose a first look to start their day, which I found out, is a Friesian tradition. It was such a sweet moment and they both couldn’t stop smiling. We then went around the family property to capture some images of the two of them and then the rest of the bridal party joined in. The cutest moment was when the flower girl and ring bearer shared their own special moment (pictures are below!)
We then headed to Rosa Flora Ltd for the rest of the formal bridal pictures and family pictures. This hidden little paradise is the perfect spot to escape the cold and make you feel like you are in a warm tropical place! Their ceremony was a beautiful testament to the work of God in their lives and his faithfulness to them. After the ceremony, we were able to take some pictures with Riemke’s dad’s Monte Carlo and it was such a fun time!
We finished our portrait time on the property of Mike’s farm. If you remember back to their engagement session, we took pictures here as well when his barn was just in the beginning stages of being built. Fast forward a few months, the barn is done and is up and running. And running so well, that Mike was called in to the barn on an emergency! No rest for the farmer, even on his wedding day!
Thank you again Riemke and Michael for having me a part of your beautiful wedding day. I pray that God may continue to bless you both as you embark on this new journey of married life together!
