We'd almost forgotten to take a photo of the thank you banner. Why?!! Because the location of Katie and Logan's outdoor wedding in Cedar Lake afforded us so many areas for great wedding photos that it was almost too much. Every ten feet was another terrific opportunity to capture the newlyweds and their wedding party. This is definitely not a complaint as we certainly enjoyed our time at their family friend's estate in Cedar Lake, Indiana.
The morning started out in the wonderful main house where we alternated between detail photos and Katie and the girl's getting ready. It was a morning full of laughs, some tears and smiling babies too!!

Soon it was 2pm and the ceremony was about to begin. Guests had taken a shuttle in and Katie was all dressed and ready to walk down the aisle...

The outdoor wedding saw bright sun falling upon the front terrace courtyard. All eyes were upon the ring bearer who appeared to be protesting the 91 degree heat by NOT holding up his sign. That's okay, we understand. Katie and Logan's vows were heartfelt and often full of humor.

After the ceremony and family pictures, I decided to give everyone a cool down by going inside the home with it's unique decor and various levels. We took the bride and groom as well as the wedding party photos all over inside the home.

After we all freshened up a bit, we went all around the grounds taking photos in the great outdoors. Katie and Logan are big nature fans so I'm glad we were able to capture all of these (and many more to come) outdoor wedding photos.

Katie and Logan's family and friends certainly came ready for fun!! Polish dances to Go Pro dance floor fun and the family tradition of drinking gin and tonic from a fish bowl kept us on our toes to capture all the fun!!

The bouquet toss saw a creative attempt to snag the prize to no avail. I give her props for the effort though!!
