Mark + Lindsay | Traverse City Wedding | The Peninsula Room
When Mark and Lindsay initially reached out and shared their love story with us, I couldn’t help but audibly gasp. It felt straight out of a movie! We really truly love Mark and Lindsay and their children. Every time we have had an opportunity to photograph them has been an absolute joy. We are so happy that they found each other and are so honored that they chose us to document this piece of their story.
When Mark and Lindsay initially reached out and shared their love story with us, I couldn’t help but audibly gasp. It felt straight out of a movie! Growing up in the same small town, working at his family’s local grocery store together and then reuniting years and years later in that same small town where Mark finally asked Lindsay out on a date. And from there, as you can see, the rest is history.
The day of their wedding was a stark difference compared to their winter engagement session earlier in the year. September 2nd brought blue skies and sunshine—a lovely day for a wedding. Instead of a classic bridal party, Lindsay’s children stood with them and her two boys even walked her down the aisle. Mark and Lindsay surprised all of their guests with a special performance by NUCLASSICA—playing during the ceremony, cocktail hour, and then really stepping it up during the reception! The room was electric and everyone couldn’t wait to get out on the dance floor. Finally, Mark and Lindsay snuck away to watch the sunset on the beach across the road before coming back to a sparkler ‘re-entrance’ into their reception celebration.
We really truly love Mark and Lindsay and their children. Every time we have had an opportunity to photograph them has been an absolute joy. We are so happy that they found each other and are so honored that they chose us to document this piece of their story. Congratulations Mark + Lindsay. Your love for each other is radiant!

Will + Meagan | Traverse City Wedding | The Peninsula Room
When the day arrived, it was a happy one, full to the brim of smiles and laughter and tears and various traditions they incorporated into their day. Will and Meagan were easy-going and relaxed, making everyone around them feel comfortable and loved.
My favorite thing about Meagan: Her compassion.
My favorite thing about Will: His openness and kindness. And the cappuccinos he makes me every day.
When asked their favorite things about each other, this is how Will and Meagan responded. And as we got to know them leading up to and on their wedding day, it was easy see this for ourselves. During our initial video call for all of us to ‘meet’ we quickly connected over our love of specialty coffee and were so excited chatting about the vision for their day.
When the day arrived, it was a happy one, full to the brim of smiles and laughter and tears and various traditions they incorporated into their day. Will’s goofy and fun personality shone through during their first look and dances, and Meagan showered everyone in her stunning smiles the whole day long. With a couple like them, it is no wonder how many people were there to celebrate them and their love. Being together and surrounded by their friends and families, Will and Meagan were easy-going and relaxed, making everyone around them feel comfortable and loved.
Congratulations to Will and Meagan! Thank you for trusting us to document your beautiful wedding at the Peninsula Room!
