Allie & John are married! Their ceremony was at St. Anthony on the Lake. The celebration continued at Legend of Brandybrook.
Two year ago today, Allie and John got engaged. John planned a winter walk and had a friend hide out to capture photos. Allie was completely surprised! Two days after this new year, they officially tied-the-knot in front of their closest friends and family. They said, “Seeing all of our family and friends in one place” was their favorite part of the day.
One of their pieces of advice for future brides & grooms was to have people help out. Allie said, “Planning a wedding can be stressful enough. If you have good people helping you, they all work themselves out, they all work themselves out.” Allie’s cousin made their invitations, a best friend and her mom did paper goods and day-of coordinating, they had a family friend make the cake!
TJ and I have been excited about Allie & John’s wedding for a while. These two are some of the nicest people we’ve had the pleasure of working with. Since day-one, they’ve been so excited & the day of was no exception… except amplified by family. It shouldn’t go without saying how awesome and welcoming Allie & John’s families were. It really cannot get better for us.
Check out how we saw their wedding day…
