Military Wedding At Aberdeen Manor In Valparaiso
Bride and groom share a kiss outside the Porter County Courthouse in Valparaiso, Indiana.
Andrea and Bart were married 2 years ago at the Porter County Courthouse in Valparaiso, Indiana. The groom was soon stationed in Colorado by the Army and this past Friday they finally had the chance to bring the party back to Aberdeen Manor and celebrate with friends and family.
Our day started at Salon Diva, also in Valparaiso, where I captured bridal prep, including flower girl Abby's wedding day coloring book.

Our next stop was the beautiful Ogden Gardens which had taken on quite the Fall tone in color. I photographed the bride and bridesmaids while second photographer Doug was with the groom and his guys at the church.

The Catholic wedding ceremony took place at St. Paul Catholic Church with it's wonderful architecture. The bride came down the aisle with her Dad to say "I Still Do" with her husband Bart.

Andrea and Bart had a snapshot from their wedding at the Porter County Courthouse from 2 years ago so they wanted to pose with it there. So off to the downtown Valparaiso Square we went.
