There is no doubt that Lauren and Jeff had a BLAST at their wedding at the Grove Park Inn. They both had fantastic, outgoing personalities, and you will definitely see this in the photos. I loved Lauren’s ideas, and it was so much fun implementing them and helping her vision come to life. She wanted her cocktail reception to be a totally different look and feel from her wedding. As guests moved upstairs to the Sammon’s Balcony for the cocktail hour, they stepped into a space popping with vibrant colors….emerald, sapphire, fuschia and red. In contrast, as they moved to the Skyline ballroom for the reception, it was a sea of ivories, whites with hints of black and gold. So beautiful…
Once again, Corey McNabb outdid himself with these fabulous pictures…

I love the feather shoes!

The Purple Iris wowed me with her flowers…

Jeff gave all his groomsmen a pair of Converse…they were thrilled!

Can you tell where Lauren gets her personality?? 🙂

Lauren and Jeff were introduced to the theme song of the UFC (Ultimate Fighting Challenge)…hilarious!

We rented a photobooth so that she would have fun pictures of all of her guests…

The results!

For favors, the Grove Park staff passed out cigars to all of the gentlemen and a box of chocolate to all the ladies.
