Real Weddings: Andrea + Charlie

At the end of the day, weddings are about love – celebrating a new life together with your one true love, surrounded by all those who love the two of you. What’s even better than spending the day celebrating with loved ones? A whole weekend celebrating with everyone at a lakefront resort! Andrea and Charlie did just that at their Michigan wedding at Lake Bluff Inn & Suites. On the night before their wedding, they arranged for a bonfire on the bluff and sang the night away with guitars, bongos, and friends and family from near and far. Their wedding day was classic and elegant without competing with the natural beauty of their venue. I love the black and white color palette, long bridesmaids dresses, the unbelievable teal getaway car and all the other amazing details captured by Sarah Postma Photography!
