Karen and Doug are so absolutely adorable and Karen definatly gets the “smiliest” bride of 2011 award (I LOVE IT!) You can just see how much this couple loves each other and how much fun they have together!
We started our day with the girls for a few getting ready pictures and then headed to the ceremony site. Doug was so sweet when he saw Karen for the first time:) After the ceremony, the entire wedding party headed over to Ault Park and Fountain Square for Wedding Photos. The break between the ceremony and reception gave us plenty of time for photos and Karen & Doug got to enjoy their cocktail hour with their guests. The Grand looked awesome and every detail was perfect! After toasts and first dances, the Josh & Empty Pockets from Chicago got everyone out of their seats for a night of dancing! Congrats Karen & Doug, you make the perfect couple, and I was honored to capture your special day! Here are some of my favorites!
On the way to the church we got a few quick shots of Karen…Beautiful!I love that they laughed together through most of the ceremony:)All the boys had custom cufflinks:)Loving the fall colors:)Dancing in the street!
