Wedding Pictures

Heidi Swiss Photography out of Indianapolis, IN did our wedding pictures and we were thrilled with the results. She also did our engagement pictures in June.
One thing we were looking for in a photographer is creativity. Nate was adamant he did not want posed pictures where everyone was stiff. Heidi ran with that and created some great arrangements of people. Some of the pictures I thought should have been in a indy music video (think that video with the band on the treadmills --You may not agree but that was what I was thinking. Okay now that I watched the video, maybe that wasn't what I was thinking)

I had rented a house for my bridesmaids to stay in for the weekend and that is where we got ready for the wedding. My parents were right next door as were all of my family from England. It was nice to have everyone so close by on the big day. We then walked down to the riverfront to take pictures.
The photographer then went to mine and Nate's house and took pictures with the guys.
We all rendezvoused at the Lanier Mansion for group pictures.


Heidi arranged a big reveal for Nate and I in the back gardens.


After the pictures we had some time to kill so we climbed aboard the Madison Trolley and took a spin around town. Come to find out, while on the Trolley it will stop at the Madison Fudge Factory and provide you with samples of fudge. It was all delicious!

After the ceremony, we took pictures with our families then boarded the Trolley and went to the Reception.
After our grand entrance,
we did some mingling,
then ate,

then cut the cupcakes,
had some toasts,

danced our dances, threw the bouquet,
removed the garter,
and partied the night away.
