A Camp Blodgett Wedding Overlooking Lake Michigan | Alyssa & Devan
There’s something magical about a Michigan summer wedding, especially when it takes place along the shores of Lake Michigan. Alyssa and Devan’s celebration at Camp Blodgett was filled with love, laughter, and a few unexpected surprises that made their day unforgettable. As their Camp Blodgett wedding photographer, I was honored to capture every detail of their lakeside love story.
A Lakeside Ceremony Filled with Love
The couple exchanged vows at 4 p.m. in a stunning beach ceremony overlooking Lake Michigan. With the waves crashing in the background and golden sunlight spilling across the water, the setting couldn’t have been more romantic. Surrounded by family and friends, Alyssa and Devan promised forever against one of Michigan’s most iconic backdrops.
A Celebration as Unique as Their Love
Alyssa and Devan wanted their wedding to feel like them—fun, meaningful, and unforgettable. One of the highlights of the evening was their decision to have a tattoo artist on site giving real tattoos to guests. It was such a cool way to create permanent memories (literally!) and give everyone a story to take home.
After dinner and dancing, the celebration carried on into the night with a cozy beach bonfire and spontaneous lake swimming under the stars. There’s nothing more “Michigan summer” than ending a wedding night barefoot in the sand, surrounded by laughter and the glow of a fire.
