Alyssa and Greg’s Wedding 5/7/11 Indianapolis, IN – part one

June 2, 2011

Well they always say when you worry about something so much it never happens – that was me before this wedding. With all the rain we’d been having I thought for sure there was no way I would be able to avoid it for pictures. I packed rain gear, and brought my cute umbrellas and started a shot list in my head for rainy day photos. If you had seen me on Friday you would have thought I was a crazy person ( I still wouldn’t rule that out) and what happened? No rain. Well I shouldn’t say no rain, there was some in the morning and when I left the reception it was pouring but someone we managed to stay dry during the day. Thank you mother nature 🙂

I would like to say that the above paragraph may have something to do with the fact that this was my first 2011 wedding. No matter how many I do I still butterflies and nerves. The day couldn’t have been better though. After meeting Alyssa for the first time awhile back I knew there would be no “Bridezilla” potential. She was cool as a cucumber all day. I would advise all brides to be as laid back as she was – it’s too late to stress about the small stuff and time to just enjoy the day.

I met the girls at The Vault in Beech Grove to get their hair done and then off to GORGEOUS St. Mary’s Church downtown followed by a rocking reception next door at the Rathskellar. I had an amazing time – enjoyed the mass especially after learning that Alyssa had once been the priest’s trainer at the YMCA. Loved that I was able to grab the two of them aways and stroll down Mass Ave afterwards. Got to meet a rocking Polka band – Polka Motion. They even threw my name into a song … yep I’m kindof a big deal. All in the all the perfect wedding day.

Thank you to Alyssa, Greg and all your friends and family for allowing me to be a part of your day! This just part one – the post ceremony couple photos and reception will be up next!
