The New Adventures of Lewis and Clarke

Good weather in August ... are you kidding me? Well that's what we had when Kate & John got married on August 16th.

Usually an outdoor wedding this time of year in Illinois would be brutal, but that just wasn't the case. It was just an enjoyable summer day.

Kate & John had a beautiful wedding ceremony at Allerton Park in the Sunken Garden followed by a reception/picnic at Crystal Lake in Urbana.

They had an all you can eat BBQ including ribs, chicken, beef brisket, corn on the cob and cornbread as well as a live band, and paddle boat rides.

Guests came from all over the U.S. and I know that I spoke to one young lady from Sweden. You know you've got some real friends when they come that far to celebrate with you.

The entire day was coordinated by Gwen Wilson from Nuptiae and florals by English Hedgerow in Urbana. This was my first time working with Gwen and she and her staff did a fabulous job keeping everything running smoothly.

Thank you John & Kate for letting us be a part of your wedding day.
