Katie and Kurt are fans of the Harry Potter series of books and avid readers.  It made perfect sense for them to have a literary themed wedding complete with books on every table at their reception at Centennial Park in Munster.

The day began at Hampton Inn where the girls got ready.  It was there amongst all the laughter and hairspray that I first spotted the library due date cards that would be serving as table placards later in the night.

Katie looked resplendent in her veil and we definitely showed it off in pictures.  I took the girls into the hotel lobby for posed as well as goof off photos and I took Katie outside for a walk.

The ceremony took place at Ridge United Methodist Church with Father Steve as officiant.  The tall building gave me opportunity to get some nice wide shots of the altar and the center aisle was perfect for up close shots as Katie and Kurt were married.

We were concerned about storms as the couple exited the church with bubbles surrounding them.  However, I put in a text to Mother Nature and the rain held off!!

Centennial Park was our last stop of the day for photos as well as the literary themed wedding reception.  The newly married couple walked alone across the bridge while we loaned out a golf cart for a fun group wedding photo.

The literary themed wedding really showed at the reception with books adorning each table and the library due date cards for each guests.  Boris from Precision Sound kept them dancing all night and handed the microphone off to the groom and the single guys who serenaded the bride just before the garter toss.

Wedding season is in full swing and this is only a sneak peek look at Katie and Kurt's literary themed wedding at Centennial Park.  Stay tuned for more at the social media links below!!
