The Wedding Story of Livia & Ryan Cook
Jenna Nelson | October 12, 2016Ryan and Livia Cook found their forever after meeting online. Planning an event of epic proportion proved to be a challenge as Livia was finishing law school and the couple was living in Arizona while planning a Michigan wedding. Face-to-face vendor meetings and appointments were difficult to set up so the couple sought the assistance of Cassie Celestin of White Dress Events, an event planning firm in Grand Haven, Michigan. Livia desired a “Secret Garden” theme and trusted her planner to connect with vendors to bring her vision to fruition.

Jenna Nelson | October 11, 2016Jodi Bodtke of Giving Tree Photography was stirred by visions of an earthy, nautical wedding.
