Madison Scout Teune met Matthew Patrick Russel in 2023 on a popular dating site called Bumble. Of all the gentlemen who were available, Maddie chose Matt and he was the only one she messaged and dated. The couple clicked and had so much in common that two years later, Matt proposed on a rocky beach along the majestic Leelanau coast. This magical moment was but a stone’s throw away from the picturesque lighthouse, surrounded by still waters and a serene dusky sky. In the spring of 2025, they booked our venue and 18 months later, married underneath the shade of a stately maple tree on October 10, 2026! Maddie’s parents, Sue & Jon Teune were the happiest of parents together with Matt’s parents, Greg & Pattie Russell. Gorgeous florals were by Mickala Ann, owner of Wit & Grit Flower Shop, that added the perfect touch to this lovely Fall wedding! We wish this wonderful couple blessings, light and love everlasting!
