Nicki and Dave

Nicki and Dave...

These two are a great match.  They're the yin and yang of coupledom.  She's outgoing.  He's shy.  He's quiet.  She's not.  (She'll tell you this herself.)  And it totally works for them.  They chose Franklin Park for a venue and it was a fantastic day!

Nicki's dress had a lace-up back and honestly, if you've ever seen Gone with the Wind...  you know that lacing that up means you need to anchor yourself.  Lucky for Nicki, her aunt was there to lend a hand.

Petals and Leaves did an amazing job on her bouquet!

Nicki incorporated some very special items into her bouquet.  It's her grandfather's wedding ring and her grandmother's brooch.  So sweet and pretty.

Details must've been important to Nicki and Dave because we had this beautiful aisle decor...

And hand-written vows... ( Yep.  Big sigh worthy stuff)

We have to talk shoes...  You all know how much I love a pretty pair and Nicki's were gorgeous.  She's putting a lot of pressure on me to replace my blue shoes with hers.  :)

A little first dance lovin'....

I really enjoy trying to find something different to do with photos---especially at night.  It was pitch black out there but thanks to a little video light from True Studios, I was able to capture this baby and it's my fave of the day.

All in all it was a fun day!  Congratulations Nicki and Dave!!
