Carrie & Patrick’s Quad Cities Wedding

In November, I had the privilege of photographing Carrie & Patrick’s wedding. Not only was the entire day a blast, but they had a great wedding party too!

The day started in the church where all of the girls were busy getting ready. This gave me a chance to snap a few “detail shots.”

After a bit, the girls helped Carrie into her dress & her mom carefully buttoned up the back.

And of course . . . Jewelry . . .

Then Carrie & Patrick did a letter exchange. (I swear I didn’t cry!)

Then the ceremony! Which was absolutely amazing & had the best music, hands down!

Then it was time for a little fun! (There may or may not have been a bar involved) 😉

And since Carrie & Patrick both ski with the Back Water Gamblers, we knew we just had to grab some shots, (like . . .  the photograph kind), at the ski site. We thought we could beat the bus, so Carrie & Patrick jumped in my car (which was hilarious) and we may or may not have sped to make the sunset.

We did alright!

The speeches were definitely a huge hit . . . and involved poster board . . . and a high school teacher.
