Kaitlyn + Brady / a wedding at the Lyndon, IL historic bridge

 

Kaitlyn and Brady have been looking forward to their wedding day and I think they’d both agree it was worth the wait! Everything was just perfect, you can tell Kaitlyn is a planner, she nailed the details from start to finish!

After getting their hair done at the Beauty Hutch in Morrison, we all met at the groom’s mom’s house in Lyndon, Illinois where the ladies got ready. Maria Vroman did a wonderful job on the makeup and I loved seeing the colors they picked out for dresses and flowers. The lavender Azazie dresses and flower girls’ denim jackets were so pretty together and looked great with the bridge backdrop. The flowers from RoAnn’s Floral Shoppe made the perfect accents. And of course, Kaitlyn’s dress was fire on her! She said yes to the dress at David’s Bridal and wore a custom Mrs. Nance denim jacket that was adorable. The guys tuxes are from Men’s Wearhouse and they all looked so handsome!

As I mentioned above, the wedding ceremony took place at the Lyndon Historic Bridge. What a unique and awesome spot to say “I do!” The couple recounted many dates and walks together across the bridge. How perfect that they made their marriage official in such a sentimental spot for them. They were joined by their sweet pup along with their closest loved ones to witness the nuptials.

After the ceremony and lots of gorgeous portraits, we all headed to Clinton’s Wild Rose Casino & Resort to celebrate the happy newlyweds! Shoutout to Fulton Meat Market for the amazing meal and Jewel for the delish cupcakes! Everyone had a great time eating, drinking, playing games, and dancing the night away.

It was an honor to be a part of your special day, Mr and Mrs Nance! You have so many amazing years ahead of you, I’m excited to see you begin this next chapter as husband and wife. Congratulations again!!
