A tented backyard wedding in Michigan | Mr. and Mrs. Rifenberg

[dropcap] I took a little bit of a blogging hiatus [/dropcap] this past summer because 1. I was pregnant and in my first trimester with baby #2 and 2. I was SO stinkin’ busy that blogging just wasn’t even an option! I decided to save all of my sessions from August on and blog them throughout the winter. I am so glad I decided to do this because today’s wedding is bringing me all the warmth I need on this cold + windy morning here in Michigan!

First up on this blogging marathon is Kayla + Tom! They decided to have a backyard tented wedding on their families’ property waaaaaay before anyone even heard the word ‘COVID-19’. Yes- this was their plan all along!! Kayla + Tom got to have their dream wedding on August 15 and though it was hot, the day could not have been more perfect.

If you’re thinking about a backyard Michigan wedding… you need to see these images! Kayla did an amazing job planning this beautiful day, so you will leave with plenty of inspiration.

And yes, I hope backyard weddings are here to stay. I thoroughly enjoy them!

PS. If you see an image you love, hover over it and “pin” it to your Pinterest board! Thank me later 😉
