The Venue: Shepherd’s Hollow

There are love stories and then there’s the love story of Casey and Dan. When Casey and Dan got engaged, they knew immediately that Shepherd’s Hollow was their dream wedding venue. Nestled in a serene, wooded area, this venue was a dream come true for the couple. It provided the perfect backdrop for their romantic and intimate wedding.

Wedding Day Highlights

A Sweet Letter from Dan

The day began with a touching letter from Dan to Casey. His heartfelt words and unique card – two otters holding hands – brought tears to her eyes and set the tone for a day filled with love and emotion.

First Look with Her Father

Before the ceremony, Casey shared an emotional first look with her father. Casey and her father have a close bond which was evident as they had their first look. They both hugged, they both cried, and they both laughed. It was a perfect moment.

Dan’s Surprise Jacket

During the reception, Dan added a unique touch to the day with a surprise jacket. Inside the jacket were photos of their most cherished memories together. It was an absolute hit during the reception with Casey and all of their guests.

Casey and Dan’s Love Story

Casey and Dan’s love story began when they were just fourteen. Life took them on different paths through college and different states, but fate had other plans. After ten years, they reconnected during a weekend visit to Chicago, rekindling a relationship that had always been meant to be. Dan moved back to Michigan, and the two have been inseparable for over five years.

The Proposal

Their engagement story is as charming as their love story. While walking their dog in Downtown Northville, Dan led Casey to the gazebo in Mill Race Village. Friends were hiding nearby, capturing every moment. Dan proposed, and Casey said yes. The surprises didn’t stop there; they celebrated the engagement with both of their families at Dan’s parents’ house, making it a day filled with joy and love.

Conclusion

Casey and Dan’s wedding at Shepherd’s Hollow was a perfect reflection of their love story—filled with heartfelt moments, personal touches, and the warmth of family and friends. It was a day that not only celebrated their marriage but also honored the beautiful journey that brought them together.
