On August 20, 2011 Megan Martin & Jonathan Meyer were married. It was a wonderful wedding and turned out to be a beautiful day despite the rain in the morning! I started at Megan’s parent’s house in Naperville for the getting ready shots. Megan looked amazing in her dress and her bridesmaids all had bright fuchsia dresses and these killer shoes!! Everyone looked great! After taking some pictures at the house we headed over to the Grace Methodist Church in Naperville. The church was decorated with such gorgeous flowers by Yanni Design Studio. They also did all the flowers and lighting or the reception and it was simply breathtaking! After the ceremony we took some formal family portraits and headed over to the Morton Arboretum in Lisle. The rain cleared by that time and the sun peeked out for a great shoot. We got some fun bridal party shots and wonderful shots of Megan and Jonathan around the grounds. I love the Arboretum because there are so many great locations for classic wedding photos that are timeless and romantic! After spending time at the Morton Arboretum we headed over to Meson Sabika where they ended up having their rehearsal dinner the night before. We had a great time getting some images in the front of the restaurant. I love the white pillars and the beautiful grounds. We finally headed over to the beautiful Bolingbrook Golf Club for the cocktail and reception. Like I said the reception room was amazingly beautiful with the soft pink flowers, white pearls and beautiful white flowing linens and sashes overhanging the extravagant wedding cake. This was one of the most beautiful cakes I’ve ever seen at a wedding! (And I see alot of weddings) The guests all had a great time eating, drinking, toasting, smoking cigars and dancing!! The night was so much fun and there were so many guests on the dance floor all night long. We had such a great time shooting and being a part of this gorgeous wedding!! Thank you Megan and Jonathan for entrusting me to photograph your beautiful day! I wish you so much happiness in your new life together!! I want to also thank Tracy Petersen, my second shooter, for taking such great shots throughout the day. Take a look at some great images from the day!!!
