Andrea and Nick Married! A Beautiful Park Wedding in Alton Il.

Nick and Andrea are an amazing couple who dated for some time prior to getting married. Patience pays off as their wedding day was as close to perfect as you could get!  The day started at her parent's house - a familiar relaxed atmosphere where all the women had their hair and make-up done. Then, with everyone ready to go, and the anticipation mounting, the wedding party added a unique twist to the day by taking an old school bus to the park where the ceremony was held under near-perfect weather.  The couple exchanged vows under a gazebo that overlooked the Mississippi River. What a view!  I love it when couples incorporate a special twist that makes their day unique and this wedding featured their devoted and friendly dog as the ring bearer.  After the ceremony, the happy couple once again hopped aboard their school bus to the nearby golf course - where we were able to get some amazing photos. Nick and Andrea packed a lot into their day including their reception at the golf course where the couple danced and celebrated into the early morning hours!
