A Fairytale Wedding: Keweenaw Castle, Allouez MI
“Wait for someone who loves you differently. One who can see the fire in your soul, the child in your laugh and the ocean in your heart.” -JmStorm
Vanessa and Matthew’s wedding day was a fairytale come true, set against the charming backdrop of the Keweenaw Castle in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. With just a few close family members by their side, they exchanged vows on a warm September day.
Vanessa, being the creative soul that she is, made and dyed her own wood florals for the occasion, adding a personal touch to the décor. The couple’s love filled the air with laughter and joy as they celebrated amidst the beauty of the Keweenaw Peninsula.
After the ceremony was a delicious homemade taco bar and everyone shared stories and laughed at dinner. Then, seeking a memorable moment, Vanessa and Matthew braved the chilly waters of Lake Superior for some sunset photos. The sky painted a stunning display of colors as the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a magical glow over the landscape.
Back at the castle, their family surprised them with a custom cornhole set, a thoughtful gift that added to the joy of the day. Surrounded by loved ones, Vanessa and Matthew embraced every moment, grateful for the love and support that surrounded them.
As the day came to a close, they stood together, hand in hand, basking in the warmth of a September sunset. With hearts full of love and gratitude, Vanessa and Matthew embarked on their journey into married life, ready to embrace whatever adventures lay ahead.
