FLE Anniversary: Nick & Shannon

HAPPY ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY TO NICK & SHANNON!

Today we are celebrating a beautiful couple as well as a wonderful organization! Nick and Shannon were married a year ago today all thanks to Wish Upon A Wedding: a nonprofit organization that provides weddings for couples facing terminal illness and serious life-altering circumstances. AWESOME!

Just after finding out the unbelievable news that Nick's cancer was now in remission, this wedding became a wonderful celebration of new life. I feel blessed to have been able to be a part of this beautiful third wish granted for Indianapolis. Read more about their wedding day on the Wish Upon A Wedding BLOG.

FLE Anniversary: Charles & Audra

Happy 1 Year Anniversary to Audra and Charles!!!

Bungalow Photography

One year ago today this bubbly couple tied the knot and Four Leaf Events was lucky enough to be a part of their special day. Their wedding details were nothing short of classic and traditional, every young girl's dream! Brandon and Katie at Bungalow Photography were the perfect team to capture their classic style (Check out their blog HERE).

Audra was simply stunning!

The reception boasted several food stations that included, yes, sushi! And our favorite, of course, was the ice cream sundae bar. I highly recommend this for any wedding!

Audra was so impressed with Charles' dance moves. It was one of the best and smoothest choreographed first dances we have ever seen!

So much fun seeing past clients at weddings! (Lauren & Cory)

Loved working with this precious mother/daughter team! If only there were more girls in the family so we could do it all over again.

Congratulations to Mr. & Mrs. Long! You are such a kind and gracious couple and I could not have asked for better clients. I wish you many blessings and many, MANY more anniversaries to come!

Four Leaf Wedding: PJ & Amy

Carpenter Photography

I have been so excited to finally play catch up and share some more fabulous weddings with you all like this one! Amy and PJ have to be one of the classiest couples I have ever had the pleasure of working with. I love how romance and sophistication oozes from every photo. I had a difficult time narrowing down my list of favorite photos taken by Carpenter Photography as they were all simply beautiful and classic. (p.s. The above picture is one of my all-time favorites! Amy looks like a bride model out of a magazine.)

Carpenter Photography

Amy and PJ were married on October 15th, 2011 at Meridian Street United Methodist Church with a reception following at the Conrad in Downtown Indianapolis. If you're having vendor envy after looking at this wedding, well... you should! The classic all-white flowers were provided by Kathy's Kloset (check out Amy's 3 dozen rose bouquet!), video by LeBella Wedding, cake by none other than Heavenly Sweets, flawless make-up by Karen Hall, transportation by Naptown Trolley, and the always fabulous Endless Summer Band kept the party going.

Carpenter Photography

Amanda Coffey with the Conrad arranged for these amazing photos to take place on the roof of the hotel! This was an incredibly romantic moment as the sun set over Indianapolis, Amy and PJ enjoyed a quiet little escape before the reception began. Melody with Carpenter Photography captured the view perfectly!

Carpenter Photography

Amy, PJ, and their classy, gracious families were an absolute delight to work with! I hope these first 5 months of marriage have been blessed and I wish you tons happiness in all of your years together! Thank you for allowing me to be a part of this once in a lifetime occasion.

With Love,

Four Leaf Wedding: Cory & Lauren

Ashley Nacke Photography

Meet Cory and Lauren: a beautiful, loving, fun couple who simply adore each other! They were married on September 4th at the fantastic Indianapolis Art Center in Broad Ripple. Being a lover of anything Vera Bradley and nautical, the bride was able to incorporate those styles into every detail. The end results was a classy yet colorful wedding with loads of personality. Ashley Nacke Photography shot such amazing photos of everything that I could have posted them all!

The yellow rose bouquets by Bella's Blooms added a colorful pop that brought together both looks.

Even though the questionable weather forced us to move the ceremony indoors, the wedding was beautiful and intimate. Indianapolis Art Center offers a great variety of backup plans if rain is in the forecast.

Ashley Nacke Photography

The couple had a "Bucket List" album where each guest wrote a unique date suggestion, marriage advice, fun place to visit in Indianapolis, etc. They then placed that card in one of the dated envelopes. Lauren and Cory will open one each day on the corresponding day for their first year of marriage!

Ashley Nacke Photography

Taste of Congo and World Cuisine's Jose Lusende and team not only served up unique and savory hors d'oeuvres, but were hilarious motivators during the evening's clean up! Cake My Day created one dreamy dessert bar that was a giant hit. The bride and groom chose to cut a pie instead of a traditional cake, because "Why would you eat cake when you can have pie?" -Cory Schneider.

Ashley Nacke Photography

I loved working with this bride and mother of the bride combo! A great team makes the planning process much more fun. Thanks, ladies! Let's do it again...

Wardrobe Change = more reasons for bride to get down and boogie! I love this classy end of the night dress that Lauren magically appeared in to show off her dance moves. DJ Alex Anglin kept the party going an extra 30 minutes for the happy couple and their guests!

Ashley Nacke Photography

Congratulations, Cory and Lauren!!! Enjoy your new life together and may God send many little blessings your way...

Four Leaf Wedding: Umut & Melissa

We thought everyone could use a taste of summer lovin' on this chilly day, and this is the perfect couple to make you feel warm and cozy!

Markus Rae Photography

Melissa and Umut were married this year on June 17th on a perfect summer day in downtown Indianapolis. The college sweethearts wed in the gorgeous Indiana State House before moving the celebration to the Dolphin Gallery at the Indianapolis Zoo. The day began with photos around the brand new JW Marriott with Heather Doyle of Markus Rae Photography. Jason and Leah of AMS Entertainment provided the music for both ceremony and reception while Centerplate created some tasty and unique food options for their guests.

Markus Rae Photography

Since Umut and his family are from Turkey, Melissa wanted to incorporate as much Turkish touches as possible. The tulip bouquets made by her mother are a nod to the flower prominently grown in Turkey. Melissa also incorporated the color turquoise (Turkish stone) in several details throughout the day as well as Turkish "evil eye" beads to keep the haters away from their special day. =) Umut's mother provided stunning, intricately beaded overlays from Turkey for the tables (and she let me take one home at the end of the night!). Bosphurus Cafe opened up their doors and treated us all to fantastic Turkish cuisine for the rehearsal dinner. I highly recommend making a visit to their downtown Indianapolis restaurant.

Markus Rae Photography

This groom is such a romantic that he kept their honeymoon plans a secret from everyone, even his bride! I love this gesture of a man whisking his new wife away to a secret location where no one knows where to find them. And despite Umut jokingly insisting they were headed to the Vatican City, Melissa got her dream tropical honeymoon.

Markus Rae Photography

With a couple as international as Umut and Melissa, the luggage tag placecards made by Four Leaf Events were very fitting. And when AMS Entertainment cranked up the Turkish music, all of the cultures in the room were able to enjoy and appreciate the groom's home country!

Markus Rae Photography

To Umut and Melissa and the Barbs and the Tugsals, thank you for being such gracious, joyful, and all around lovely clients. I had so much fun working with you all!

Markus Rae Photography

Congratulations to Melissa and Umut!!! I wish you both a lifetime of adventures and happiness together...
