This was an AMAZING wedding!  It was a smaller reception, with only 60-70 guests, and they had the ceremony out on the shore of lake superior.  I always love doing weddings at Superior Shores Resort, the staff there are awesome, and it is normally a very beautiful venue for a wedding ceremony and reception.  I set up the sound system and microphones out by the lakeshore, and everything goes well… 99% of the time.

This time, it was a very windy and chilly october day, but the Bride & Groom are both very outdoorsy and insisted that we still do the ceremony outside by the lakeside.  So that’s what we did!  I threw a garbage bag over the speaker to protect it from the water that was spraying up from the lake, and the officiant trimmed his message so everyone didn’t have to stay out in the wind and cold for too long.  But even with the weather, it was a lovely ceremony, and it was truly a wedding that those guests are never going to forget.  Looking back in 30 years time, Joe & Kayla will be able to tell their children “back in our day, we got married and it was windy, and wet, and cold, but we LOVED it!”

After an amazing dinner, we then danced the night away.  This family was so much fun, and it was really a blessing for me to be able to be a part of their special day.  I told Joe how much I appreciated his service for our country, and even joined everyone upstairs at the resort bar for an after-party drink before heading home.
