Katelyn + Cooper // May 2019

Wow, what can we say about this day! This wedding made our little flower loving hearts so happy. The couple, the colors, the location, the photographer - everything was amazing and we cannot wait to share it with you!

Katelyn and Cooper got married at The Downtown Market (that greenhouse, though) and had the incredible Kassidy Rhodes as their photographer. Katelyn gave us full reign when it came to the florals, and her only requests were a jewel tone color scheme and a big bouquet. Girl, you got it! We absolutely loved working with Katelyn and Cooper, and we wish them all the happiness in the world!

All photos are from Kassidy Rhodes Photography - Enjoy!

Congratulations, Katelyn and Cooper!

P.S. Can you guys get married every year so we can do this again? Thanks.


McKenna + Josiah // March 2019

McKenna and Josiah’s wedding was beautiful. With the ceremony and reception located at the vintage inspired Cheney Place , and wedding portraits taken in the stunning greenhouse at Grand Rapids Downtown Market, we knew this wedding was going to be one for the books. The floral decor featured heavy greens and lush, white blooms, such as garden roses, ranunculus, and anemones. We loved the copper arch, garland on the farm tables, and gold accents!

McKenna and Josiah, congratulations on your marriage, and we wish you all of the happiness!

Sarah & Robin // February 2019

We started off February with Sarah and Robin’s stunning winter themed wedding at the Gull Lake Country Club. After a couple weeks of harsh weather, the sun was finally shining and the room was filled with so much natural light - our favorite! It was the perfect day for a wedding!

For the decor, Sarah had opted to go with more traditional Christmas greens such as cedar, pine, and fir, along with white focal blooms and accented with pine cones. While we battled with sap covered hands the whole week, it was so worth it! The dark colors complemented the burgundy bridesmaid dresses so well, and of course, everything smelled like Christmas.

Enjoy these beautiful photos from Larsh Collective Photography!

The garland on the head table looked so lush. Obsessed!

Fun fact, Sarah’s dad built the beautiful arch! We were very impressed! The greenery we added looked so amazing on it.

The cake was so cute! If you have no idea what Spikeball is, we highly recommend googling it. The perfect summer activity for the beach!

Kendra and Anthony's Magical Winter Wedding

Remember back in December when we were all wondering where the snow was? Well, we found it! Michigan is definitely turning into Antarctica this week, and I’m thankful that we didn’t have this crazy weather for the weddings we had earlier in the winter! Speaking of those weddings…..we are so excited to finally be sharing this December wedding on the blog today!


Kendra and Anthony - December 1st, 2018

Kendra and Anthony’s wedding was a dream. So classy, so sophisticated, and just simply elegant. With white blooms being the focal point of the decor, the Glamour and Grit team had a fun time using various types of Roses, Hydrangeas, Ranunculus, and Calla Lilies in the arrangements. We brought in white Christmas trees onto the perimeter of the dance floor, which made for the perfect backdrop during their first dance.

They chose Dan Terpstra as their photographer, and we loved the fact that he had preview pictures for them later that night! Looking over these photos, we are so happy with how the elegance of the day was captured.

We wish Kendra and Anthony a lifetime of happiness, and hope you enjoy the photos below:
