Julie and Ben – An Intimate Destination Wedding

Julie had contacted Simply Brilliant Events to plan her imitate destination wedding for 8 guests in Ann Arbor, Michigan.

Julie and Ben were both living in San Francisco but had ties to Ann Arbor, Michigan. They wanted the perfect intimate destination wedding for their eight guests. One of the venues that we thought that would be perfect, Zingerman Cornman Farms in Dexter, Michigan.

The June day was perfect for a small outdoor wedding.  Julie arrived early afternoon for the final touches of getting ready in the beautiful dressing area in the main house. She had already been to Imagine Three Beauty Studio for her hair and make-up.

The guests gathered at the front of the house. Ben and the lovely Nichole from A Simple I Do, walked down the aisle, and were ready for Julie. Julie and Ben had not seen each other before the ceremony.  He was beaming.
