A Sunlit Celebration at Aberdeen Manor’s Enchanted Gardens

July 21, 2025 Steve Vansak

I’ve been photographing weddings at Aberdeen Manor for many years now, and I’m happy to report that the newly remodeled bridal suite and groom prep room are complete and can comfortably accommodate the entire wedding party—makeup, hair, and dress preparations, and most importantly, foosball.

With Abby on one side and Ben across the hall, I was easily able to cover getting ready for both of them.

Winter Wedding At Aberdeen Manor

February 17, 2022 Steve Vansak

Snow falls upon the dance floor at Aberdeen Manor.

Carrie and Brandon had been planning their winter wedding at Aberdeen Manor Ballroom in Valparaiso, Indiana for quite sometime. The day had finally come and snow was falling when I arrived for bridal prep photos.

I found non-stop laughter and plenty of moments to capture. I even got to pop over to see the groom and his crew as they were nearby.

Carrie had two first looks / reveals. The first was a great moment with her sons who had looks of amazement as they saw mom in her dress. This all lead up to the big reveal with Brandon.

After coming down from the emotional moments of the reveals we realized - it’s cold outside! It was time for portraits of the bride and groom and the wedding party as began arriving for the chapel ceremony.

The wedding ceremony took place inside warm confines of the Aberdeen Chapel. Carrie’s eldest son walked her down the aisle as friends and family looked on. There were plenty of laughs during the proceedings but also some emotional moments that required a few tissues.

Soon we were walking across the street for the rocking reception.

The Aberdeen Manor Ballroom looked elegant as ever and introductions lead into the cake cutting and some spirited speeches. Then it was time for first dances and the opportunity for everyone to celebrate the winter wedding of Carrie and Brandon.
