I showed up at Elizabeth’s parents place. They have a beautiful home near the Aurora airport. Everyone was about ready when I got there, but I snapped a few quick shots!
Surprising some of the girls…
A kiss and hug from mom and dad…
We got to take advantage of some great light around her parents place.
A beautiful bride and some dead sunflowers…
The first meeting happened as soon as we got to the church! I loved this idea of him just opening the door and seeing his bride…
And then we had a quick photo session around the church grounds…
And the ceremony begins. Their siblings played and sang for the ceremony!
Some tuning up…
And the fun begins.
I love the light from the program!
Cory’s sister singing…
I loved this detail shot from in the church!
They had to pastors. They met in college and their college pastor flew in for the ceremony. The other pastor was from the church. The more the merrier, right? =)
And then we headed to downtown Naperville for part two of our photo excursion!
We spotted another wedding party so they pulled out their best ‘West Side Story’ moves!
And then we headed to the reception. It looks like the bus is blowing up. It was a fog machine on the bus. Crazy.
A quick shot of the ring bearer…
And some shots around the reception venue…
Yes, thats them!
Some quick detail shots…
Her father gave a great speech…
Her mother getting choked up…
Along with the bride!
Then they thanked everyone for coming…
The first dance…
Elizabeth and her father…
Cory and his mother…
And the crazy dance fest!
Their families made cookies for the party…
and they were good!
Cory’s groomsmen stole his jacket and did a crazy dance with it on!
Cory’s mother can put em down!!!
The bride was serenaded by the guys…
And the ring shot!
Thanks for having me.
