Serbian Wedding At St. George's Church In Schererville, Indiana

When I arrived for Tanja's bridal preparation / getting ready photos I did indeed photograph her dress, jewelry and bridesmaid camaraderie.  However, it didn't take long for me to be in full "reception mode" as the band started playing at 11am and the dancing was on.  Oh, and delicious food was in abundance along with a little moonshine!!

After the introduction of the bride, a circle of life dance broke out in the street across from their home.  Soon we would be off to St. George's Church in Schererville, Indiana for the traditional ceremony.

Once all of the rituals were completed, the ceremony ended and then it was outside into the sun for more celebrations in dance.

We then went inside the church for family photos and then I took the bride and groom outside in the wooded area between the church and the hall for some bride and groom wedding photos.

We finished up with some wedding party photos at Halls of St. George and then it was back inside for introductions, a meal and non stop dancing.
