I showed up to photograph Alyssa and started shooting right away! I loved the pineapple sign with their house number…
And the details were waiting for me inside! The details were even in the dollhouse…
And then a regular sized chalkboard!
Then it was time to get ready for the ceremony…
Another bridesmaid arrives!
Heart the shoes. Yup, cheesy! =)
A quick toast for the couple…
and a shout out to Alyssa’s grandfather!
I grabbed a quick shot of Alyssa in the backyard…
And then we were off!
And then the ceremony begins!
Her grandmother…
Alyssa and her father…
Their mothers…
Some readings…
Her niece…
Her other niece…
And they did it!
Her uncle sang during the ceremony and I asked him to do a quick number outside!
She was loving the camera…
and so was she!
And then we walked around Park Ridge…
We stopped by the movie theater. I love that we got the ticket guy in the window!
And then we were off to the golf course!
Some family fun…
and some ‘not so fun’. =)
Awww….. I just thought this was the cutest picture of all! Ha. I had to give this one the ‘Joan Rivers’ filter.
Christine (my great second photographer) handed out some balloons that Alyssa brought for pictures. Someone lost their grip!
He was not impressed with that.
This may be my favorite.
Some details during cocktail hour…
Mark’s father was watching from above…
The table cards…
She had these great flowers made for all of the girls to put on at the reception…
They handed out the salsa at the end of the night!
And then I took a few shots of the crowd!
Yay! Carolyn was there. I photographed Carolyn’s wedding a few years ago. They just welcomed a baby girl into the world…Charlie Bea!
The sunset on the golf course right as they were introduced into the reception…
Their friend that introduced them was not about to let anyone forget it! Ha!
And their first dance… They had a friend sing for them!
The speeches…
The parent dance!
His mother was DANCING! I loved it.
And then his mother and her sisters sang for everyone…
And they played!
And when grandma takes off her dancing shoes, you know it is time to party!
We were even treated to a song by Alyssas father!
Why is she stealing Marks drink!??!
Some ‘confused’ Irish dancing!
It was a tough night!
And I love the ring shot!!! This was her grandfathers and he was holding it when he passed away. She really wanted to use this for the ring shot and I was so glad she did!
