This 4-day wedding weekend commenced with a welcome party at a family's private residence in Saugatuck, Michigan, right off the Lake Michigan coast. It was a glorious location to host their closest family and friends before Alix and Perry wed.

To start off a spectacular weekend, Alix and Perry, alongside Modern Day Collective, curated an elevated approach to a true Lake Michigan themed event with details and flown-in design elements to swoon over.

“Alyssa truly went the extra mile to make our wedding so special! Her creativity, solutions-based attitude, attention to detail, and promptness made working with her a joy. She also fully understand my aesthetic and vision which gave me even more confidence. All of the custom elements felt high-touch, cohesive, and unique, which truly added to the overall experience. Alyssa handled everything from custom bar signage, menus, ceremony programs, matchbooks, stir sticks, and more. We even tasked her with creating a custom backlit marquee sign for our after party entrance. If you're looking for elevated stationery, you'll be in great hands with Alyssa. I can't wait to work with her again for future events!”
