Let me take you through the exhilarating journey of Steve and Tracy’s wedding at the Traverse City Yacht Club! 💃🕺🌞🎉 With the sun gracing the day, the afternoon kicked off in style. Opting for six hours of pure celebration, they skipped the getting ready shots, focusing on the dancing that awaited.

Starting with Tracy’s portraits against the backdrop of sailboats at the Yacht Club, the scene was set for a day full of love and laughter. Steve’s entrance was equally stylish, and candid shots of guests arriving captured the anticipation and camaraderie in the air.
