Wow, right? Ashley is from Columbus, Indiana now living in Indianapolis. We met up in the spring and when she mentioned peacock feathers as a main element in her vintage style wedding, I was ecstatic. Her location at Crowne Plaza in Indianapolis had so many great backdrops, textures, and colors. It was a tad freezing outside which limited our photo-time outside, but we made due with the classic Union Station interior. Ashley’s smile really lit up the room every time she entered. Along with her bridesmaids that was one gorgeous, fun bridal party to hang out with. Each bridesmaid had an elegant hair style with a feather or two for adornment.

The boys in their cool, calm, collected ways were a riot. They teased each other mercilessly while I clicked away. I’m a big fan of real moments as they are the elements that make up the heart of a wedding.

Those peacock feather corsages. Wait until you see the bouquets!

Flowers done by Claudia’s Florabunda in Columbus.. great job!

The Union Station part of the hotel is amazing.. they have train cars you can sleep in… and take photos of wedding dresses on…

Great details and decorations for the holidays..

After the  ceremony the wedding party and I headed to the Ellenberger park in Indianapolis for some fun informal shots. The girls donned the men’s tux jackets (it was chilly) and Ashley and Scott were ravishing with the leaves falling behind them. They were such a sweet couple as I spotted a cute pug in the park, Lily, and they took some photos with her as why not?

The reception was a short drive away in Reelsville. I can’t even give words to the beautiful land Ashely’s parents have there. They set up an enormous white tent with heaters (thank you!!). The bride and groom joined soon after on a mule drawn carriage with a hand painted just married sign on the back. Toasts, great food, surprise fireworks, plenty of dancing, and a toasty glowing bonfire rounded out their gorgeous wedding day.

Enough rambling, thank you Ashley and Scott for choosing me to be your photographer! Here are some of their many beautiful photos:

I love the details of weddings!! Scott had levels for cuff links!!
