Wild & Woven: WeddingDay’s Exclusive Grand Rapids Cover Shoot
Allyson Hutchison | February 1, 2025When Brooke Simmons, CEO of Forever and Always Event Planning, planned a wedding at Augusta Creek Venue, she became familiar with its character and charm. Inspired by the rustic and organic vibes that the venue possessed, Brooke dreamed up a realistic yet stunning shoot. “This combination inspired the bohemian-western theme for the styled shoot, which I felt would resonate with the local clientele,” Brooke shares. “Having grown up in the area, I understand the down-to-earth, humble nature of the people here—many of whom are farmers. They aren’t necessarily interested in elaborate champagne towers or ballrooms and black tie elegance. Instead, the brides I envision want a cute, boho vibe with a touch of rustic, western charm.” The result was a delicate balance between western and elegance that Pavé Wedding Productions captured flawlessly!
