There is nothing like a sweet, country wedding to get my heart beating a little faster. Jamice and Aaron’s adorable celebration took place Mill Creek Barn in the Michigan countryside this summer. Is it just me or does Michigan seem like the most enchanting place to get married? And what isn’t to love about this wedding? Bowties, wildflowers and craft paper elements–amazing!

Tec Petaja can do nothing wrong in my books. EVERYTHING is gorgeous.
Beautiful photographs. Dress is stunning. Such a beautiful couple.
I may be biased — we had a gorgeous Michigan wedding — but MI weddings are the best!
Wow!! Just enchanting…would love to find out where she got those invitations….
Best,
Dara
we have the same dress :) Can’t wait to wear it!
I got about two photos into this and said to myself Tec Petaja took these!!! I adore everything he shoots and this is no exception. His photos have such a lovely quality to them. Beautiful wedding!
Invitations: The designer is from California called Twig and Fig. We purchased the invites at a store in Chicago called Paper Doll Inc. The designer was super helpful. She even sent me the names of the fonts, so I could make the hotel information card to go along with the invitation set. I made the Save the Date from a design that was shared on merrimentdesign.com.
Love that side bun!

I LOVE all these barn weddings! I haven’t been able to find any barns in the St. Louis area. Authentic barns, that is. There are a few venues going for that barn feel, but it’s not natural.
feature more Michigan weddings, PLEASE!
So beautiful <3
Where is this venue at in Michigan?
So beautiful! Great lighting in these.
The venue is Mill Creek Barns in Watervilet Michigan.
I love the paper pages. How was the printing done? Is that something you can do yourself on a regular printer?
Where did the groom get his suit? I love it!
I also love the groom’s suit!
The groom’s suit is from Macy’s. It’s Alfani. He got it tailored, and that’s how he got such a great fit. I think he spent more on the tailoring than the suit.
I printed the wedding programs on brown paper lunch bags on my printer at home. I also printed the cookie favor dinner menus on my home printer.
I love the flower in your hair. Where is it from?
Thank you!
lovely photos, bright and lively, it captures the mood very well. well done!
The colors in this wedding are so amazing and this paper decoration makes it different.
