Retro Golden Hour in Grand Rapids: The Real Wedding of Abbey & Blake

Photos ByMary Shelton Media

In a true tale of modern romance, Blake and Abbey met on a dating app, and when it came time to make it official, he proposed on a rooftop overlooking scenic downtown Grand Rapids! The greenhouse in Grand Rapids Downtown Market had been Abbey’s dream venue since she moved to the city. With that venue in mind, Abbey and Blake wanted to plan a wedding that matched the season in which they would be wed. The happy couple also has a deep love of the '60s and '70s, so added those vibes to their overall theme. Deep, moody fall colors combined with disco balls and vinyl records created their editorial wedding look!


 

What We Love

Abbey’s ceremony dress is the perfect look for this retro wedding. Becker’s Bridal did an amazing job helping Abbey pick out a timeless look that still reflected her personal style. “I ultimately knew it was perfect for me once I tried on that dress. I felt confident, my demeanor and posture changed and everyone with me knew it was the perfect choice,” Abbey raves. The corset paired with the classic silhouette and the pearl encrusted veil makes Abbey look like she walked right out of a 1960s bridal magazine!
