I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.
I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;
so I love you because I know no other way

Sunday I had the pleasure of shooting Stephanie and Ben's lovely wedding. I was watching the weather channel like a hawk all week hoping the blazing heat that had plagued our area as of late would take a bit of a break. I remembered my own wedding which took place on a 100 degree day (not a good idea to go with a ballgown in that case, BTW)....so I was hoping for a bit of relief for Stephanie and Ben.
Well, it wasn't 100 degrees...but it was hot. And it was Memorial Day weekend, so festive moods were had all around....heat or not!
The ceremony was held at the lovely Mequon United Methodist Church, which reminded me of old-school, country weddings with it's big double doors leading into the chapel area. Absolutely lovely. The ceremony was personalized and heartwarming.
After stopping at one of my favorite spots, Klode Park, for pictures we headed over to Villa Filomena for the reception. This place is wonderful, I could move right in. Lots of shabby chic vintage touches.
The day was hot, but beautiful and we had a great time dancing the night away to the Pete Fleming Orchestra (these guys are PHENOMENAL...highly recommend them!).
Enjoy the sneak peek!!
Ben...he's a bit of a crier, that one. ; )
