Arriving at Avalon Manor in Merrillville, Indiana for the Reception, I realized that the couple had set aside some downtime for themselves and the wedding party to cool off, get some water and light snacks. This gave me opportunity to shoot many detail shots. I always shoot with a montage in mind. The image above I had the bands in the center knowing that I'd most likely use the free space to interweave other images. It's one of my favorite montages.
Here is one that includes the Bride and Groom's own photography....

After this rest period, it was time for introductions. Ladies and gentleman, let's hear it for the Best Man and Maid of Honor!!!
The speeches were next and they were all great and from the heart.

When it was cake cutting time, Elise hesitated and asked me where she was supposed to cut. I told her a little from the bottom would do just fine. Well, the cake was in no danger of toppling after her morsel size cutting!!! :)
