Daniel + Abigail | Mascoutah, IL

Love is never cancelled. Daniel & Abigail envisioned an October wedding surrounded by many family and friends while they exchanged vows. When I did their engagement photos early May we chatted about their special day and all of their plans for the fall wedding. A week after engagement pictures and Daniel got orders that he was deploying early July. So a quick date change and a few rescheduled events we made their special day happen with their parents, siblings, aunts, uncles, and grandparents. Daniels family drove 14 hours from Nebraska, his best man flew in and Abigail's family made the drive down state to witness them say, " I do." Daniel and Abigail's day was filled with so much love, laughter and happy tears. Their intimate day was so easy going, stress free and full of love. During the ceremony uncles FaceTimed friends and family so the once unable to attend could still be apart. At the end of the day its about who you are marrying, not the location, day or weather but the life and love you are sharing. Daniel and Abigail, I wish you many many years of safety, love and happiness!
