Jayme + AJ: 07.16.11 | A Vrooman Mansion / Funks Grove Wedding

Beyond The Well — Sun, 08 Jan 2012 03:37:50 +0000

The Vrooman Mansion and Funks Grove were the perfect settings for Jayme and AJ’s vintage-inspired DIY wedding. They shared a private “first look” at the Vrooman Mansion and we then took full advantage of the historical setting for some sweet bridal portraits. Later we braved the summer heat in July to capture some photos at the Sugar Grove Nature Center right next door to the Funks Grove chapel of the templed trees. Jayme and AJ worked hard to perfect the vintage vision for their wedding, and it really paid off!

What a neat blending of cultures at the wedding of Jessica and Kristian! Peruvian-American and Swedish touches were part of their day at Crestwicke this past August. (Kristian’s family and friends came all the way from Europe for the event!) And could Jessica be a more gorgeous bride?! We are so happy for you guys and hope you are loving life in Brussels!

Nicole and Will got married on the warmest November day ever! It was about 70 degrees on 11.07.09 so we spent tons of time outdoors. It was gorgeous, and so was their ceremony at Evelyn Chapel. (And sunny!!) Special treat at the reception for Ghostbusters fans!

Tracy + Mark: 08.29.09 | An Ewing Manor / Crestwicke CC Wedding

Beyond The Well — Thu, 28 Jan 2010 22:28:59 +0000

Here are the highlights from Tracy and Mark’s gorgeous wedding at Ewing Manor in Bloomington. We took nearly all of the portraits before the ceremony in and around the manor. This place is great for outdoor ceremonies! Then we also stopped downtown after the ceremony for a few more portraits and then a few more at Cresticke. Love these guys and their pics! Tracy is awesome thrifty and crafty– a little like me! She bought her designer dress off the rack about 10 sizes too big and had an awesome seamstress make it her size– and made the bustle turn the dress into cocktail length which she wore with boots at the reception. Love the details. So take a look and also take a look at these fine BNWeddings.com featured vendors who contributed to this day:
