From the moment I arrived at the house where everyone was getting ready, I knew this was going to be a special day. Clarisse and Rachel first met at a lake house in Michigan, not far from Saugatuck, spending the weekend with mutual friends. Since then, these two have been completely obsessed with one another. Their whispered conversations and constant giggles throughout their wedding day stood as a testament to their love for one another.

Their wedding fell on the most perfect Saturday in June. The sun was out, and the pride parade had just walked through the small town of Saugatuck. Every guest I spoke with was so excited to be there, ready to celebrate, witness, and dance in honor of their love.
