The couple married at the Rend Lake Visitor's Center. While they appear all warm and toasty in the pictures below, it was only in the low 60's that day with a 15-20 mph wind coming off the lake. Even I was a little chilly and I had on long sleeves. I know Mallory had to be freezing, maybe the rush of getting married made her forget how cold she really was - obviously the cold weather didn't stop her from looking absolutely stunning!



The aisle runner was hand painted by Julie Heine and was just beautiful!
The groom and his men....
The bride and her sister, can you tell they're related?
The flower girl, Mallory's niece 'posing' for a picture.
Don't ask!
The bride with her parents.
The groom with his parents.
FOB, father of the bride with his daughters.

Mallory's brother "Shib" was the Sesser fireman killed in the line of duty on Interstate 57.
In his memory and in memory of her uncle who passed just months before the wedding, Shib's daughter placed a single red rose in the flower vase on the alter. It was a very touching moment.







The wedding party waited at the end of the line and I think each of them had at least 4 packs of bird seed.
As you can see they pelted them as they ran to the limo.
The wedding party.

Thank you for allowing me to photograph your special day and a special thank you also to Arielle for tagging along and second shooting for me!
