The holiday season was kicked off in style with Abby & Anatoli’s winter wonderland wedding at Christ Church Cathedral and the Columbia Club, with the newly-lit “World’s Largest Christmas Tree” towering over the proceedings. I arrived at the club just as Karen Hall & Company were putting the finishing touches on the beautiful bride, and then joined Nathaniel Edmunds Photography as the couple greeted each other in the lobby and headed outside for photos. Following the wedding, Monument Circle formed a panoramic backdrop for the reception in the Crystal Terrace, which was beautifully decorated by The Empty Vase along with a cake by Taylor’s Bakery. After a few formalities including the traditional Russian bread and salt ceremony, Jim Cerone‘s music led the way for a fun evening of celebration.

I had such a great time helping my friends at Posh Petals celebrate 10 years of awesomeness, along with a fun vendor team of some of my favorite people including Eventfull Planning, Nathaniel Edmunds Photography, Jim Cerone, MBP Catering, A Classic Party Rental & KB Design. Congrats, Meredith & Erika, and here’s to the next 10 years!
Kelsey & David enjoyed a classically elegant wedding day, from their stunningly decorated ceremony at Second Presbyterian Church through their amazing reception at the Indiana Roof Ballroom. The ceremony was filled with many unique touches, from the children’s choir to the massive wall of floral splendor on the altar by Enflora. The eye candy continued into the reception, where the guests were greeted into the room by a cool guitar groom’s cake by Classic Cakes, foreshadowing the fun that would be had the remainder of the evening courtesy of AMS Entertainment. With Mon Amie Events (who referred Kelsey & David to us) overseeing every last detail and my great friends at Nathaniel Edmunds Photography shooting alongside me, Kelsey & David’s wedding day could not have been any more perfect.
Additional Vendors: A Classic Party Rentals, Antique Limo, Elite Management, La Dolce Salon, Markey’s Audio Visual, Marie Gabriel Couture, Westwood Paper Company

After a whirlwind wedding in Italy, Alexa & Daniel returned home to celebrate their union with a reception for friends and family at the Conrad Indianapolis while videographer Brandon New captured the fun. It was a stunning ballroom thanks to Eventfull Planning (who referred this event to us), Posh Petals and Wow Factors among others, and we had a blast working alongside Nathaniel Edmunds Photography as the Cocktail Sax Band and the band etc. entertained the happy crowd.

Videographer Brandon captured the action as Nikki & Matt enjoyed a beautiful winter wedding & reception at the Indianapolis Museum of Art. After toughing out the cold temperatures for some outside shots with Nathaniel Edmunds Photography, they exchanged emotional vows in the towering Pulliam Hall. The gorgeous decor courtesy of Kathy’s Kloset along with the terrific service by Kahn’s Catering set the tone for a fun evening with music provided by The Simple DJ. Thanks to Brandon for filming, thanks to the IMA & NEP for the referral, and most of all, congratulations to a wonderful couple!

Sara & Matt’s gorgeous wedding day at the beautiful Mustard Seed Gardens was such a feast for the senses, with so many indelible moments to cherish. I met Sara seven years ago at a fun “trash the dress” shoot with Nathaniel Edmunds Photography, so knew what I’d be in for when I got the call about her wedding – lots of music & lots of fun. Sara has music in her soul & simply couldn’t stop singing, whether it was to Matt during the ceremony (with the bridesmaids on backup) or at the end of the night, and the song she wrote & recorded for her father was a tearjerker during their dance.
The amazing details big & small probably deserve their own blog post, but my favorites were the keepsake hankie passed through the generations sine 1940, the wedding programs that doubled as popcorn bags, and pretty much everything inside the wedding barn. Add a handsome groom who could hardly look at Sara without tearing up and a hilariously unpredictable little boy named Dex who just about stole the whole show, and you have a perfect wedding day that I wish I could film over & over. Props to Design Group, A Cut Above Catering, Sound Advice along with so many others for making this day unique and special!

Katie & Marc’s wedding & reception at The Alexander was a great way to kick off a busy Labor Day weekend. From their preparations through their first look and photos around this amazing property, it was a joy as always to work alongside Tiffany & Nate of Nathaniel Edmunds Photography (who referred Katie & Marc to us). When the weather was refusing to cooperate, Maxie Haber and her Alexander staff did a phenomenal job of improvising the timing and order of the ceremony & cocktail hour to make it eventually work inside the ballroom, where Posh Petals‘ decor looked simply fabulous. I loved so many things about the reception, including Tiffany & Maxie joining the hora, the family gift presentation that had me ready to duck, and the superb club DJ/live band mash-up that Marc affectionately calls “Sleepy Floyd and the Indy Local Musician Alliance.”

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.

Maggie & Steven exchanged vows in a Judeo-Christian ceremony under a gorgeous chuppah at Tabernacle Presbyterian Church, and then celebrated with friends & family at the Crowne Plaza at Historic Union Station. After a first meeting and exchange of gifts under the chuppah, they headed outside for photos with Nathaniel Edmunds Photography and then signed a ketubah, while A Touch of Elegance worked behind the scenes to set the stage for a beautiful wedding with combined traditions.
The reception featured many unique touches, and the Grand Hall looked fantastic with classically elegant decor by Bokay Florist and a towering cake by Heavenly Sweets. Wedding Entertainment Director Jim Cerone presided over the evening’s events, culminating in a “flashy” grand exit by horse carriage. It was a blast working with many of my favorite vendor friends, and big thanks to Meredith Gradle for referring your super-sweet sister & new brother-in-law to us!
