I have to share the loveliest little story from Holy & Greg's special night.

Around 4pm, I got a message from Greg. He told me that in about 20 minutes he and his girlfriend Holly would be heading to the Golden Stag in Manistee for dinner, and that tonight was the night he wanted to propose. Everything had lined up so beautifully, and he asked if there was any chance I could make it.

Somehow, the stars aligned for me too, and I could. (I was beyond excited and eager to go, and am so fortunate to be located so close)!

I hurried to get ready, called the restaurant to coordinate, and spoke with Jason from the Golden Stag, who was an absolute gem. He helped plan exactly where they would sit and even set aside a table for me nearby. The whole place had this warm, golden glow, and a pianist was playing which made the evening feel straight out of a dream.

When Clair de Lune floated through the room, our side of the restaurant softened into quiet hushes, warm smiles, and gentle laughter. The atmosphere was intimate, thoughtful, and incredibly beautiful.

After dessert, Greg got down on one knee. Holly said yes through happy tears, and the moment filled the room with joy, emotion, and the sweetest reactions. It was perfect.

I went home and edited the photos right away because I was honestly so overwhelmed with how precious it all was. 🥹✨

Nights like this remind me exactly why I love what I do. 💛
