Miranda and Joseph were marriend in the city they both love, showing off all that Detroit has to offer. The beautiful riverside ceremony and elegant restaurant reception made guests feel right at home. I’m loving the bold pop of color from Miranda’s unique bouquet and the way she carried the color through at the reception – so cool against the sophisticated black and white table linens.
Miranda + Joseph | September 17, 2011 | Detroit, Michigan
The ceremony
My husband and I both have a great love for the city of Detroit, so it was very important for us to have our wedding downtown. Detroit has such a rich history and makes for a beautiful backdrop for photos! We were lucky enough to have a beautiful day in mid-September. Our ceremony was at The Roostertail on their outdoor patio overlooking the Detroit River where we exchanged vows as boats passed by.
The reception
After the ceremony, guests were ushered indoors and right into cocktail hour. Our style is very clean and modern. We used a combination of black linens with black and white damask to add some texture with gorgeous fuchsia orchids for a pop of color. My brother is a personal chef who helped design a menu for us an add a personal touch to our dinner. One of our favorite parts was our late night snack, White Castle’s passed on silver platters! Definitely crowd pleaser!

Why she decided to sell her wedding dress
I knew right away I wanted to sell my wedding dress. It is so beautiful and looks so amazing in photographs! I want for another bride to be able to feel the way I felt on my wedding day.
