The Post Office have a motto, something like "neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom". Well, that could easily apply to our bride and groom Amanda and Mike who took it to the rain on their Spring wedding day. You will see them brave the elements later in this post with their awesome pink and black umbrella. They rocked it.
Our day started with bridal prep at Amanda's parent's house with a lovely gift from daughter to mom on display. Family love was everywhere in the house as I photographed Amanda's wedding day accessories in her childhood bedroom.

Just before she walked down the aisle I visited Amanda in one of the classrooms at the church. I cajoled her into writing all of the bridesmaids names in hearts and we took a quick picture.

The ceremony was at St. James the Less Catholic Church in Highland and had many emotional moments and culminated with celebratory bubbles.

I loved the expression of the newlyweds after the ceremony when I photographed them in front of the stained glass windows. After family pictures, we photographed the wedding party as well as the couple all around the church and then it was off to Centennial Park for a romantic walk in the rain.

Not only is rain good luck on wedding day, but it also provided nice saturated colors for wedding photos!!

The bridesmaids didn't seem to mind when I suggested they wear the groomsmen's jackets for some outside shots as the temperatures dropped.

The reception at The Patrician in Schererville was a lot of fun with lot's of nice decor and a room full of laughter. After dinner it was time for the first dances and then the 27 Entertainment crew cranked up the jams.
