After ten years of dating, Allison and Brandon are finally married! What a joy it was to celebrate their love this past weekend. Saturday could not have been more perfect, and I will forever count myself lucky to have been a witness to the beginning of their marriage. After all, I had been looking forward to this day ever since the three of us grabbed burgers and beer at B Spot over a year ago.  I love the way they love each other and am so glad Brandon worked up the courage to ask Allison on an ice cream date after science class all those years ago. :)

They chose the Indianapolis ArtsGarden as the setting for their day, and let me tell you: it did not disappoint. Just WAIT until you see all the natural light their ceremony and reception images have — I’m obsessed! The staff was so incredible, too. Every single detail was taken care of, and, thanks to a great timeline, we were able to capture SO many portraits. Although, to be honest…I’m not sure it would have been possible to capture a bad photo of these two!  Allison & Brandon truly put together a dream team of vendors, and I couldn’t be more excited to share their wedding story with you today!

Love these shots Maggie got of the guys hanging out! Brandon was just the happiest groom!

Because what girl doesn’t want to be surprised with a CAMERA on her wedding day?! :) I’m tellin’ you…I LOVE this couple!!!

Love this moment Maggie caught right before Allison walked down the aisle! She looked right at Brandon and told him she was coming for him…so stinkin’ cute!! Love!!!

While the guests enjoyed Cocktail Hour on the balcony, the ArtsGarden staff quickly transformed the ceremony space into the most romantic reception setting! I love all the soft gold details!! Allison & Brandon’s first dance was breathtaking — they had taken lessons to prepare, and it could not have been more sweet!
Love this shot of Brandon watching Allison and her Dad dance…
And when I caught Allison watching him and his mom one dance later, I couldn’t help but smile!
