Ian and Rachael

These 2 are hard to keep track of! Ian (the groom) is currently working in Chicago and Rachael (the Bride) is finishing Grad school in Michigan. They actually got married in Cincinnati, so it was a tri-state affair. Funny story - there was a marathon taking place the morning of their wedding day which was completed unexpected. The roads opened for traffic about 30 minutes prior to the wedding.

Needless to say everything went so well! Ian actually surprised his Bride at the reception flying in his Quartet partners from across the country and serenaded his new Bride. The crowd went crazy after they were done and they received a standing ovation! I could hardy shoot, I wanted to clap sooo bad!

It was a wonderful weekend from the Rehearsal dinner on Friday night through the post party even after the reception concluded!

Thanks, you 2, for warmly invited us to capture and experience the entire occasion!
