The Knot - My Real Wedding

Jamie, one of my September brides, recently posted info about her big day on The Knot's My Real Wedding. The whole thing looks just great, and I'm glad they did it. If any of my other brides is interested in posting on The Knot as well, let me know and I'll hook you up!

My Real Wedding from The Knot.

Amanda + Adam

These two are adorable! Giggly in love. Although Amanda seriously does not enjoy getting her photo taken, we managed to still get some super cute engagement pictures. This was my last scheduled outside shoot for the year and the weather couldn't have been better. Such a beautiful pleasant day... Remember those?

Carrie + Michael= One Happy Couple

My dear friend Carrie is engaged and planning for a June wedding all while interviewing for residency programs. (as is her fiance) Busy couple. Before the weather got too chilly we managed to schedule in their engagement pictures and dinner. Here's just a few of my favorites. Needless to say, I'm way pumped about their wedding day.

Back home

Sorry for the lack of blog love lately, but I just got back from an awesome vacation with my hubby! It was our first vacation together since our honeymoon. It was so fantastic to take a break from work and everyday life. You also can't beat 85 degree weather with sunshine everyday. (my favorite!) Tim and I really enjoyed having that special time together. Invest in your marriage, spend one on one time away from everyday life! I find myself trying hard to get back into work mode and wondering if last week really happened or if it was just a dream. For those curious we stayed just north of Cancun, Mexico in an Excellence resort. Enjoy the images!

Olivia+Dave - The Slideshow

Loved this couple! I couldn't help but put up a slide show. My favorite part of the day was by far all the fun we had taking pictures with the wedding party at Holcomb Gardens on Butler's campus. The light was awesome and the wedding party was a load of fun!

The big day started at Olivia's house with lots of people getting ready. The house was literally 1/4 mile from the church...convenient. At the church the final preparations were made and the ceremony went smoothly. I loved that both sets of parents came up front for a blessing at the end of the marriage ceremony.

After a few family pictures at the church, we headed to Butler. It was homecoming weekend, so I really had no idea what we'd run into. Fortunately, we pretty much had the gardens to ourselves. Although a bit on the chilly side, the wedding party were complete troopers.

The reception was in my neighborhood at the Riverwalk in Broad Ripple. Jason Fritz from Pro-Sound Entertainment kept the evening smoothly running. Olivia had candy apples as favors, custom wine bottles as centerpieces and a cake made of petite fours. The fall theme was totally pulled together with all of the vibrant colors of the flowers by Posh Petals. Plenty of laughs were had during toasts and even a few tears during the dances. The party continued on as family and friends celebrated this monumental day for Olivia and Dave. They enjoyed a Hawaiian honeymoon before heading back to their home in Fishers. Congrats you two!
