Photos from my cousin's wedding as a guest – Blue Bend Photography

The groom in this wedding is not only my cousin, but also one of my best friends. 11 years ago he was the best man in my wedding. So when he called and said that it was going to be the weekend of 8th, 9th, 10th my heart sank. I already had an all day wedding on both Friday and on Saturday. But, then they set the date to Sunday 🙂 I got home from my wedding on Saturday night around 1am and was on the first flight to Milwaukee at 5:30am. It was a short night, but so worth it to see my best friend marry his amazing wife! I also got to see a bunch of my family from Michigan that I don’t get to see often. Before the wedding on Sunday afternoon we walked around a little and saw tons of beautiful sailboats. There was, by coincidence, a big sailboat race in town that day. Brian and Melanie tied the knot in the early afternoon and had a really nice reception right on Lake Michigan. It was really nice being a guest at a wedding for once, but also a little strange 🙂

My cousin (and best friend) got married a couple of weeks ago. I went as a guest, but, of course, couldn’t go without a camera. Here are a few of my favorites from that day.
