Emma and Kyle had a lovely outdoor wedding ceremony right at the start of the Fall season at The Croatian Center. The day started out with Instax photos and bridal prep while Kyle and the guys prepared their Chicago Bulls jerseys for the big entrance later that night.

I handled photographing Emma and her bridesmaids and family at the Old Crown Point Courthouse and Square while Kerrie took pictures of Kyle and his guys at Lake County Fairgrounds.

The outdoor ceremony at The Croatian Center featured the couple’s two adorable dogs coming down the aisle with the rest of the wedding party. Temperatures were cool so the provided wedding blankets were welcomed by guests.

After the ceremony we took family pictures and wedding party group shots as well as romantic wedding photos of the newlyweds. The wedding party donned their 9/29 Chicago Bulls jerseys and awaited the introductions by Trans Audio Entertainment.

Plenty of decor was on hand at the reception, including a delicious donut wall and an inscribed pumpkin.

At nightfall I took the bride and groom outside for a slow dance by the light of the glowing gazebo.
