Karen & James wedding at Plymouth Church of the Nazarene Plymouth & Andiamo Livonia Italian Restaurant

Karen and James were married at the Plymouth Church of the Nazarene in Plymouth Michigan. Their reception was held at the Andiamo Livonia Italian Restaurant.  Initially Karen reached out to our studio in a phone call and mentioned that she was going to have a small wedding and wondered if we did them. It’s interesting because the vast majority of the weddings we do are smaller ones. No one around here is quite sure why that is but that seems to me the case in today’s world. Weddings have mostly shrunk in size and we have followed along very well with our sweet and simple packages. They work perfectly for smaller events and they have probably become our best sellers. 

The couple both got ready at the church so we spent maybe 20 minutes with each documenting some of the preparation before the service. Both the bride and groom attended the church and knew the pastor so you can imagine how personalized the service was for them. It’s really important that whoever does the service gets to know the couple so that it is a personalized experience.

After the service, we stayed and took a few family photos for about 10 or 15 minutes before we took off for Wilcox Lake Park in Hines drive. This is a beautiful little Park on the north side of Plymouth that provides a gorgeous backdrop for wedding photos. 

The reception was held at Andiamo restaurant in Livonia, Michigan. This is a wonderful restaurant on so many levels! Of course for those that know, Andiamo has one of the best reputations for amazing food in the area. They have several locations and the Livonia restaurant is perfect for small weddings. They have a small banquet room that I would estimate holds about 20 people and is ideal for a fabulous meal! 

It was a lovely evening and as the sun was going down the couple went outside for a few photos in front of the restaurant. We hope you like this wedding and we wish this couple the very best life has to offer. Joining two families together is always fun for us to document. Weddings are what we enjoy and do best!
