Brittany + Brad = Married!

On 4/21, we photographed Brittany & Brad’s over the top BEAUTIFUL wedding at St. Luke’s & reception at Woodstock Country Club! They were so adorable together and so much fun to photograph! Brad’s family owns a wholesale floral house in Texas so as you can imagine, their flowers were out of this world amazing! They flew in thousands of flowers for the event and had a local florist put them all together. They were fabulous! Gina Howald did a great job coordinating everything that day and it was fun to see Reverend Scanlan again, she officiated our wedding ceremony almost 9 years ago! Everyone had such a great time that night and Brittany & Brad surprised their guests with a firework show at the end of the night, it was definitely an evening to remember! :)

Mill Top Bridal Show Open House!

On 4/6 we participated in Mill Top’s Bridal Show/Open House with some of our favorite vendors! It was a really great show and an opportunity for brides to come check out the new venue space in Noblesville. Wedding planners were asked to transform each room into an amazing set up for a wedding or reception, so brides could really get a feel for what could be done with the space. I have to say, our friends ROCKED IT OUT!! Deborah & Cassie outdid themselves, as usual, and Angie did an amazing job on the flowers & decor! Jamee Bryant did a fabulous job on the candy buffet, Kathy Hershberger provided beautiful music & Thomas Caterers did an amazing job on the food! Everyone was just in awe of the space!! Great job team!! Can’t wait to work with all of you again on more upcoming events this year! :)

Jamie + Matt = Married!

On 3/24 we photographed Jamie & Matt’s gorgeous wedding & reception at St. Christopher’s and The Conrad! They are such a fun couple together, they’re both very laid back and they had a great team of vendors that day so they were really able to enjoy their wedding day and I think it showed in their photos. ;) They actually live in Chicago so the first time we met them was on their wedding day & we all hit it off perfectly! The details were impeccable, their flowers were stunning, their wedding party was up for anything and everything went off without a hitch thanks to their amazing wedding planners, Deborah & Cassie from A Touch of Elegance. (LOVE them!) :) Oh and did I mention Jamie’s RING was AMAZING?! We all had ring envy that night! LOL

Paula + Frank =Married!

On 2/11 we photographed Paula & Frank’s beautiful wedding at Our Lady of Mount Carmel & their reception at the Renaissance in Carmel! I LOVE the decor inside the Renaissance, it’s perfect for so many fabulous detail shots like this one below! ;)

Union Street Florist in Westfield did a great job on the flowers! Paula looked stunning too, All About You salon did a great job on her hair & make-up!

They are so adorably cute together!! :)

LOVE reflections!!

Paula’s bouquet = amazing!!

After some photos at the Renaissance, we headed over to the church for a few more…what a perfect day for a blue sky silhouette!!

Paula’s dad co-officiated the ceremony which made it super special to them!

There were some remnants of snow on the ledge of the outside walkway…perfect for a creative ring shot! ;)

Classic Cakes did a fabulous job on their cake!

They even made this amazing airplane for the groom’s cake!!

Wes from Event One DJs did a great job that night too, he kept the dance floor packed the whole time!

LOVE this first dance silhouette!!

Paula has such a great smile, doesn’t she? :)

They had an awesome candy buffet so of course I used a variety of candy for some ring shots but I also wanted to try something new and a bit whimsical…. :)

The wallpaper reminded me of bubbles!! :)

Thanks for a great time you guys! More pics coming soon! :)
