Heather and Mike's winter wedding in LaPorte, Indiana occured just last week and it was a grand affair. Most of our wedding photos, including the bride and groom first look above, took place at The Allure Banquet Hall in downtown LaPorte, Indiana.

Our day started with the Getting Ready session at the couple's house which had been turned into a makeshift hair salon...

With hair and make up complete, we headed to The Allure's bride's room which has a loft surrounded by brick and large mirrors. There is even a full shower available.

The ceremony took place at St. John's in New Buffalo, Michigan where the bride and groom where surrounded by family for their first kiss...

The newly married couple was all smiles when walking back down the aisle after being married...

Before the celebration began we took advantage of The Allure's balcony for a retro looking bride portrait...

DJ Wade Breitzke of 27 Entertainment did a fantastic job entertaining the crowd during the "breaking of the ice" shenanigans which tested the couple's knowledge of one another with humor.
