It was a beautiful August afternoon as I arrived at the Lakefront to setup the wedding photo booth. The event was being held at Discovery World. The bride and groom chose to have a memory book and magnetic backings. As I setup in the hallway I had the beautiful surroundings of Lake Michigan with boats slowly traveling past.
To me, this was a true love story, which the bride and groom shared with their guests. Once together in their younger years they ended up taking different paths. Many years later their paths crossed. They fell in love again and decided to get married.
The guests at this wedding gave amazing speeches. There was this one little boy who gathered all of his courage to speak to everyone. He was very young and shy, but had to share how happy he was. As the speeches continued I realized a common thread such as Summit Avenue moms, Summit Avenue dads, and Summit Avenue kids. It was very nice to hear how involved the community of Summit Avenue is, it sounded just like a large extended family where everyone truly cared about one another.
Towards the end of the evening there was a beautiful suprise…. fireworks danced over Lake Michigan. There was an event at Summerfest but I prefer to think they were especially for the bride and groom who looked so happy and in love.
