Stephanie and Victor tied the knot in the place they have spent the majority of their relationship together, West Lafayette.  It all began before school even “officially” started at Purdue their freshman years.  Some are lucky enough to run into “that one person” between moving into a dorm and going to their first class.  Victor is one of the most polite gentleman types I’ve met, but yet loves his motorcycle.  I love that about this couple, they are dynamic personalities, genuine people and crazy in love.

They shared their vows during a full mass at the beautiful St. Mary of the Immaculate Conception Cathedral in Lafayette.  After the ceremony, we had time to stop by campus for a few relaxed photos before heading to their reception at University Plaza Hotel.  Stephanie’s fun color choices filled the room with cheer.   To get things started all previous and past members of Purdue’s musical groups sang the blessing.  Their first dances were emotional with live music provided by family friends.  Joel with Track7 DJ kept the dance floor packed the entire night.  Their friends and family came to celebrate all out!  Steph and Victor had their dancing shoes on as they changed into some Converse kicks.

The newlyweds, set out for their honeymoon exploring in San Fran and Napa Valley.  They are making their new home together in St. Louis after saying goodbye to Purdue.  Best wishes for a lifetime of love you two!

Becca and Adam had the sweetest, most perfect outdoor wedding and reception at Coxhall Gardens.  In the end of July, the weather could have been many things, but hot it was not.  It was actually totally pleasant outside the whole day and the looming rain clouds moved past their celebration.

Their love began early in college at Purdue as they were both involved in Campus Crusade.  Years and many memories later, this couple crossed the giant milestone of becoming man and wife surrounding by their friends and family.  They had put so much thought into the day, the ceremony, the songs, the details, the A-team wedding party they had by their side.  The Ritz Charles did a wonderful job catering the event and A Bride’s Choice provided all the fun pink flowers.

My regular second shooter and assistant, Tim (my dear hubby) was actually a best man in a wedding that day.  I called in the great Kiera to help me out in Tim’s absence.  It’s always great to have another talented photographer at your side on a wedding day.  We totally fell in love with this couple and wish you both nothing but God’s blessings in your journey of life together.  No doubt there are many people that will benefit from having crossed Becca and Adam’s path in life.  Thanks for having us there for such a special day!

It didn’t take long for Dara and Andy to know they were meant to be together.  Dara’s fun and outgoing personality brings out the biggest dimples on Andy.  I loved the colors (black, yellow and white) and details Dara put into the wedding; a custom made escort board, deluxe candy bar, yellow calla lilies, and lemons in the centerpieces to name a few.  The wedding party and family were great to work with, many of which I had seen a few months ago at her brother Kyle’s wedding.  It was a hot day to be in a church built in the 1840′s, but it was beautiful and where her mom was married.  The reception was held at a gem of Terre Haute, the Ohio Building, a renovated downtown property.  Andy is from Jasper, so it was only fitting that he would have the classic German restaurant, the Schnitzelbank do the catering.  The night was full of dancing and laughter. (Dara’ s laugh is completely contagious)  The newlyweds kicked off married life with a fabulous honeymoon to Antigua. (jealous a little bit?)  Congrats to a super cute couple with a great future ahead!

My dear brother in law David got married to his sweetheart Megan at the gorgeous White Chapel in Terre Haute!  Clearly for both Tim and I there was much anticipation for this day. (as well as Megan and David!)  Tim stood next to his brother as best man.  I was really shooting solo for the first time at this wedding.  (I always shoot with Tim or another fabulous assistant)  Megan and David planned everything for their big day, they were the prime example of the DIY bride and groom.  It was all thought through and flowed seamlessly.

We arrived the day before, helped with setting up the reception and rehearsal.  Since the wedding was later in the evening, the morning had a nice relaxed feel.  Both Megan and David had a tear and joy filled first look in a park after both reading letters they wrote to each other.  After some sweet and fun moments together, their families joined for photos.  We all headed to the chapel where we met up with the wedding party.  The guys were loving the camera (maybe it helps that they all knew me!).  I loved getting to see Tim in a tux, he looked so handsome.

The ceremony was officiated by their pastor during college, Scot, from Maryland Community Church where Tim and I also attended during college.  They exited the church with a long line of bubble blowers and well wishers to get away in David’s cousin’s show coupe.  We made a quick stop on the way to the reception at a park that Megan used to visit with her grandma.  As soon as the toasts and first dances were done, guests packed the dance floor and never left it!  Maybe it was the all dessert reception sugar buzz?  The atmosphere was celebratory to say the least.

The newlyweds enjoyed a relaxing week in the Riveria Maya before coming back and moving to North Carolina for the next 6 months.  It was such an honor to be such an integral part of the whole wedding process for them.  They will be greatly missed by all their friends and family here in Indiana, but we know they’ll be back soon.

For those of you haven’t put two and two together yet, that does mean there is another Megan King in the family.  We’re so happy to have her, even if it means I must now share my name.

Congrats and lots of love to you both!
