On July 19, 2025, Stephanie and Anthony celebrated their love in an unforgettable way at the charming Circus Park in Clio, Michigan. From the start of the day to the very last dance, it was a celebration full of love, laughter, and stunning moments.
The day began with Stephanie getting ready, surrounded by her closest friends and family. There was a sense of excitement in the air as everyone eagerly anticipated the moments to come. After she was dressed and ready, we made our way to the venue where Anthony had already arrived and was with his groomsmen.
One of my favorite moments of the day was when I took Anthony and his guys outside for some photos. We found a large, beautiful tree on the grounds of Circus Park that provided the perfect backdrop. The guys were relaxed, making for some great candid shots and some classic portraits.
When the ceremony finally began, Stephanie walked down the aisle looking absolutely radiant. It was a short, beautiful, and perfectly executed ceremony. The couple exchanged their vows in front of their closest family and friends, creating a moment that truly reflected their love and commitment to each other.
After the ceremony, we moved into family portraits and group shots with Stephanie and her bridesmaids. The energy was high, and everyone was having fun while still keeping the moments special and meaningful.
The reception was filled with classic wedding traditions. The grand entrance was full of smiles, followed by heartfelt speeches and a beautiful cake cutting. But the highlight of the evening was the first dance. You could tell that Stephanie and Anthony had put in time to make this moment perfect, and it truly showed as they danced together for the first time as husband and wife.
Once the formal dances wrapped up, the dance floor was open for all to enjoy. Guests danced the night away, celebrating with the newlyweds. It was an incredible day, and I’m so thankful that Stephanie and Anthony chose me to be a part of it.
Thank you again to the happy couple for allowing me to capture such a beautiful day! Your love and joy truly shone through every moment. Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness!
