Their Intimate, Industrial Ceremony Surrounded by Family


As James turned to see Hayley in her wedding dress for the first time, I was struck by how much their day felt like them in all the best ways. We were standing in the beer garden where he took her on their first date, a splendid and handmade bouquet of felt flowers dangling at her side. They shared a quick pint and wandered along the Lake Michigan cliffside until their small ceremony began at a nearby vintage shop. Soon, a small army of loved ones gathered to shower them in poetry, anecdotes, and well-wishes. In lieu of a dance floor, Hayley and James hosted a few rounds of pub trivia, not that they didn't dance literally all day into their perfect April evening.


It's your wedding day, so do exactly what you want. Let's chat about it!


Big love,

Hales & Migs
