Grand Hotel porch Wedding Photography Mackinac

What a beautiful Wedding on the porch at the Grand Hotel during the Somewhere in Time weekend. Sally and Jim traveled all the way from California to elope during the Somewhere in Time weekend. As it turned out, Jane Seymour would not attend their Wedding but Katie Flynn, her daughter, would be in the audience.

Mission Point Resort Wedding Gazebo Mackinac Island, Michigan

Elope to Mackinac Island for your Wedding

Maria and John eloped to Mackinac Island, Michigan at Mission Point Resort for their Wedding vows at the gazebo on the lawn. It was a small, intimate Wedding with just Maria and John and the witnesses. The evening was perfect weather. Maria designed all her flowers and decorations. They are both from the Detroit area.

Manda from Mission Point Resort did a wonderful job coordinating the Wedding event. Both Maria and John were very happy with their choice for the Wedding ceremony. After the Wedding the couple went out on Mackinac Island in celebration.
