Cheyenne + John are one of those couples you just love instantly. They are kind, up for anything, and so much fun to be around. So of course, their wedding was a total joy to photograph. Getting a front row seat to seeing incredible emotion and love is truly a privilege, and it’s obvious that these two and their friends and family share something that is rare and beautiful.
I truly mean it when I say that it was a privilege to be invited to document your wedding for you. Congratulations, Cheyenne + John!
Bay View at Gallagher Farms is easily one of my favorite Traverse City wedding venues (and that’s saying a lot because… there’s a lot!). Cabins, barns, vines, orchards, views, fields. I honestly don’t know how one venue can literally have it all, but somehow Bay View does!
If you’re looking for a beautiful venue with all the best that Northern Michigan has to offer, look no furtehr than Bay View at Gallagher Farms!
