Their Love Story:

Tiffany and Mike met online! They talked back and forth for a while, and then on a very brave night, Tiffany and her best friend decided to show up unannounced to the bar Mike was bouncing at, and Tiffany will never forget the look on Mike's face when she handed him her ID and he realized who she was. After that night they went on their first official date to Olde Penninsula, and the rest is history!

The Proposal:

Mike did a really good job making sure Tiffany had absolutely no idea the proposal was coming! They had talked about getting married, but Mike told her it would be a while because he wanted to save up for a ring. Well, low and behold, about a month later Tiffany and Mike went on a vacation with Mike's family to the island of Maui in Hawaii. One night, Mike's sister Alicia said she wanted everyone to get dressed up so we could take family pictures down by the beach at sunset. So the whole family went down to the beach for the most beautiful Hawaiian sunset, and we all took turns taking pictures with each other. At one point Alicia said, "Let's get some more of Tiffany and Mike." So Mike and Tiffany obliged, and after they took a few, Tiffany said "Are we good?" and Mike replied "How about one more set of photos..." And then he got down on one knee, and pulled out the most stunning ring while he asked Tiffany to marry him, and Tiffany said "Yes" somewhere in between her shocked sobbing. It was absolutely perfect!

The Vibe:

"Hawaii meets rustic Michigan brewery"

Mike and Tiffany initially thought they might get married in Hawaii, given that they got engaged in Maui, but they decided they really wanted to have all their family and friends there. So they brought Hawaii to Michigan! Their day was filled with tons of tropical leaves and greenery, and some wooden accents mixed in!
