A Lovely Allerton Wedding (Monticello Wedding Photographer)
Jul 23rd, 2010 by Linda
Since Lisa and Alex live in Washington DC, I didn’t meet them until the night before their wedding at Allerton Park in Monticello, Illinois. What a sweet, lovely couple they are. And they both come from such nice families. I thoroughly enjoyed my day with them. Lisa and the girls got ready in the bridal sweet in the Allerton Mansion. I loved how the room was flooded with natural light. It gave me great pleasure photographing the getting-ready moments. And then the wedding in the Fu Dog Garden was just perfect in the late afternoon light. And what a surprise when the groom, a quiet reserved young man, was told he could now kiss the bride. A little warning to the photographer would have been a good idea! He almost took the bride right out of the picture! And you can only see a small portion of the minister’s face, but there’s no doubt she was surprised too. A reception followed in Allerton Mansion. It was a wonderful day with some of the nicest people I have ever met.
Thank you for letting me be a part of your wonderful day.
