Tasha & Stephen exchanged vows at St. John Catholic Church, followed by a fun reception at the Scottish Rite Cathedral. Coverage started with preparations at the Hyatt Regency with EyeMAX Makeup, highlighted by Tasha’s traditional pre-wedding toast with her parents and two sisters, whose previous weddings we also filmed. After the ceremony at St. John’s, Nathaniel Edmunds Photography and I headed out for some fun photo ops around downtown before settling in at the Scottish Rite. The reception in the ballroom was a blast, featuring superb service by Thomas Caterers of Distinction, elegant decor by Kathy’s Kloset, divine cake by Heavenly Sweets, rockin’ music by Track Seven DJs, and lots of memories shared with many former clients in this fun crowd.

Laura & Nick are a fun and too-cool-for-school couple who exchanged vows at St. Mary’s Catholic Church and then celebrated at the always-stunning Mavris Art & Event Center downtown. Laura looked radiant courtesy of makeup by Kiralee of EyeMAX Makeup, and photographer Jessica Strickland (who along with the Mavris referred Laura & Nick to us) took advantage with lots of fun photos of the party around Mass Ave. & White River State Park. David Strohmeyer of The Empty Vase filled the Mavris with eye-popping splendor, and the cake by Classic Cakes made a great focal point for the room. Lots of fun was had thanks to party music by DJ Sunny Moon and diversions like a cheese fountain, candy station and booth by Indy Photo Booths.

Stephanie and Anthony had a lovely ceremony and a gorgeous reception at the Scottish Rite Cathedral. Our day started alongside great friend and photographer, Angela Talley (who referred the couple to us), capturing the bride and groom getting ready, their first look and shots all around downtown Indy at locations that mean a lot to the couple. Kiralee and Irina from EyeMAX Makeup did a wonderful job on makeup and hair for the bridal party, as always.

The theatre and ballroom looked fabulous thanks to McNamara Florist, Evans Audio Visual (who also came through with the DJ last minute!), Classic Cakes, and of course, Thomas Caterers of Distinction provided the delicious food, including the unique rose sorbet. The fun-filled reception included the bride and groom doing lots of flips during dancing, and the groom even led his mom in a polka. Their Polish family tradition of putting an apron on the bride got all of the guests up and dancing around her, and guests stayed on their feet all night long.

Best wishes, Stephanie and Anthony! Thank you so much for having us capture your special day!

Courtney and Lyle enjoyed a beautiful wedding ceremony and terrific reception at the Crowne Plaza at Historic Union Station. Courtney looked amazing thanks to our good friend Kiralee of EyeMAX Makeup. The ceremony included many beautiful Filipino traditions, including a coin exchange as well as veil and cord ceremonies.

Afterwards, we wandered around the station for some photos with Jeremy and Vickie while the Crowne Plaza staff (who referred Courtney and Lyle to us) and JP Parker Flowers flipped the Grand Hall for the reception. Everyone enjoyed dancing to the tunes played by DJ Dennis Furr, and I particularly enjoyed the delicious treats that Lyle’s mother Lilia sent home with me.

Congratulations Courtney and Lyle!

After a first meeting at the Renaissance Hotel, Kim & John enjoyed a fantastic wedding and reception at the Bridgewater Club.  Kim looked fabulous sporting makeup by Kiralee, and Anthony Wilson of On3 Photography was on hand to capture the first meeting as well as some fun shots around Carmel.  The ceremony was performed “in the round” by Dr. Scott Toussaint as the couple exchanged vows under a stunning floral chandelier created by designer Jim Holland.  Jim also helped transform the crystal-filled reception room alongside consultant Gloria Boyden (who referred this wedding to us), Evans Audio/Visual and the mother of the bride, who handled much of the amazing stationery and paper products herself.  I got to enjoy seeing Dave and Rae rock the Bridgewater for the second time in a month, while the guests hammed it up for Chad Franz and his Freezeframez photo booth.

Our spring wedding season kicked off in style as Marie & Jay tied the knot at the Conrad. The day started with a visit to Red’s Barber Shop for the guys and makeup by Kiralee for the gals. After a heart-tugging first meeting, Marie & Jay headed out for some fun photo ops with bobbi+mike, eventually joined by their “Best Dog” Tater.

The beautiful ceremony and reception were overseen by consultant Kim King Smith and her staff, with splendid decor throughout by Bokay Florist. When the guests weren’t crowding one of the Indy Photo Booths, they were either glued to the dance floor thanks to great music by DJ Jason Ryan of AMS Entertainment or trying out bobbi+mike’s new “unboxed photobooth.” Thanks to all of the above for the referral, thanks to Jet Kaiser for helping me out at the last minute, and big thanks to Marie & Jay for being such an awesome couple to work for!
